I will say it's been a fair while since we've used this board, though.

Good long while, which considering it's the backup is probably ideal. But still, furstrating to have it happen on a Sunday again. My last day in the UK for a few weeks, so I was gonna check on our D&D game and stuff. See if Slaughter updated. Can't believe that pile of wank tentacle creature gave me mummy-rot.

Not sure when you exactly left, but basically I went to Atmu, got cured, got told it was mummy rot, went back to the hairy gnome and went to bed to recuperate.

The others pretty much just went to the hairy gnome, not much else going on I don't think.

That was right around when I left. I see Boogs has made many a player happy on GLB.

Boogs Fire-sale as he puts it has clearly put people in teams they didn't want to be in. Possibly Boogs should've given everyone 24 hours notice before he started the sale, but beyond that, what can you do. We need the cash, plain and simple.

Yeah, the only one I feel bad about is that CB Otis Ripps. 3 year deal where he is lowest level guy behind 3 other higher level CBs, as well as 5 other high level safeties who can do his job better. Boogs got him plowed in the ass but the other guys got good 1 year-ish deals where they will be playing.

I don't even remember us having an Otis Ripps on the team. Shows how much I know. He can always make another Otis Ripps, or if all else fails, just slog it out.
By the way, against the next team, we're virtually doomed. Should we see if we can run Boogs into the ground?

Yeah, I wasn't sure what the fuck to really do for these next guys. Did some scouting of them against basically the one team that you could and they seem pretty solid all around. The run seemed to work better against them, and when the opponent went pass happy in the second half, it didn't seem to really pay dividends, although they did move the ball some. I was kinda thinking to not fuck with things much and just let what's been working fly.

We could go for the 'no fucking with things' approach, admittedly. It seems like it would simply be an exercise in not learning though. I thought about setting it to passing long and running wide and seeing if they get confused by that. We as a team usually play a lot of run and short and middle passing. But more run wide left, and more long pass, might catch them napping a bit. At least make the loss more colorful. Thoughts?

Problem is we have to run the ball alot more or less like we have been in an effort to control the clock and help the defense out. Our defense is what's gonna struggle against these sonsabitches. I'm not adverse to more passing long vs. passing medium, but we still gotta use Terror and pound the ball at em.

I think that we can use the Terror well. We can try Beast up the middle a bit but I don't think we'll get more than a yard at best most of the time. But let's try a few more aired out passes. Mix it up a bit with our game.

I think the Terror can probably get the 2.5 yards per carry we'd need to just march it into enemy territory. I would love it if you could somehow make a great gameplan that beat superiour opposition (I mean like this next one, brutally superior) but I don't imagine it can be done.

Yeah, I don't think so either, we're outleveled by so much for a reason. Luckily it's only these Warlords and then the All-Madden team that we will have to eat a shit sandwich for this season. I just realized, The San Leandro Pirates, the team we eeked out that glorious 3 point victory on, got blownout by the Warlords 136-0. . . That's our fucking benchmark to beat.

Keeping it with in 136-0? DOesn't that mean we need to play possession? And probably stop punting it on special teams. Seen them return too many for TDs.
