[SteveBsFan]

Exciting times. Favored again, I smell another loss. F this game

[DDT]

Another first. I get to shit on another owner for dragging the quality of the programming down. Consider yourself shat upon, Tim

[Suicane]

Yet another watershed game for me. I need to win one eventually. I'm coming for you Steve, coming for you hard.

[JesterBlaze]

Down with the bloody red Bulldogs!!!

[Pirates]

Maybe you guys should take that offline?

[Matt]

Down with the bloody red Bulldogs!!!

we have found ourselves in a quandary. we need to win this game and start to collect ourselves. let's go guys. we need this one badly

[Mike17]

We have had a disappointing start, and it doesn't look like its getting better this week. Ugh

This is a huge "make it or break it in this league" game for me. I have a personal thing that I'm likely quitting FOF if my team can't make the playoffs, because frankly I just suck and it's a waste of a decent roster for me to run it.

If I can't figure out this gameplanning thing this week, it may push for me to rex the season. I'll be ok with an "FOF loss" (meaning dumb penalties, turnovers, and shit out of my hands) or a controlled win. I won't be happy if my gameplan sucks again regardless of the outcome.

Seriously I know you are a divisional rival but your team has caused me issues for the last few seasons and the hold on the division is becoming harder to maintain against your team... I think it is a matter of time before the Mules lose the crown (hoping to make it a while yet!!) and your team is the one that looks like making that happen..

I hope so. I don't mean to sound like a drama queen about it all, but being in the league since the second season, it gets frustrating being the punching bags =/ I don't think I've made the playoffs since FOF2007 came along, although I could be wrong on that.

I do know just as I was getting the hang of '04, Jim added all types of crazy stuff to '07 that I never really adapted to.

[Hoosier]

Our team cohesion rating is too low, so we'll have to wait for that to improve before I think we're a threat to anyone.

Iowa City reaps the benefit of having us on schedule ... we shore do look purty, but we peform like an old drama queen... a lot of hot air and nothin' to really take seriously.
