The week has been advanced. Week 13 games may now be played. Almost playoff time.

Bill,

Jared and I have our week 12 game scheduled for tomorrow night. Is there a way to apply that score retroactively, or are we out of luck?

Sorry Rob, I can't go back afetr I advanced it. Both teams are playoff locks, so it's not a huge deal.

I'm assuming we're going to suck it up and finisn the league even though the NFL season is over. I mean we only have 4 weeks and the playoffs left. I ask because we havent had a game played this week. Is everyone still in?

I'm in...just haven't tried to schedule the game for this week yet...I'll get on it.

The Cards can line up to be bowled over Sunday night. How about Sunday night at 8:30 CST??

Hell yes I'm in. We're almost done, I'm on the bubble, let's finish it up.

Kruza, if you're reading, let me know what time works for you. I can usually play most weeknights after 8:30 Central and during the day on the weekends (or Sunday night).

I'll be online tonight (Thursday) right after the Lakers vs. Pistons game is over, which should be around 9:30pm CT. Look for me online then.

That should work for me, I'll catch up with you tonight.

I am not contacting my opponents anymore I wait for them to contact me.

I will finish out the season, but I don't enjoy the game , I've had I think 4 games against DSP guys (which means most of my other games sucked) and more importantly I am sick of having to be the one who runs around setting up the game every week.

It's a piss poor attitude, but it is where I am at. So if they contact me I will play, otherwise I won't it's that simple.

Yep, that'll work. I'm rusty, so you may need to take it easy on me.

Good game, Kruza. Your D kept me bottled up and kept me from getting anything going in the air. My boys will be doing tackling drills after that Ahman Green run.

Bill, looks like you had a hell of a game on your hands.

I am really glad that we have kept the league up. I know some people have not had good experiences, but everyone I have played has been both an officer and a gentleman. I look forward to these games each week, I find myself analyzing my losses the day after (like I am right now), and I'm sweating out a playoff berth and realizing I probably need to win my last three to lock one up.

100% frustrating. It ended my 7 game win streak. The guy that plays the Rams now, Grunt, is very very good. I was lucky to score 24 points. One was on a short field after an INT, the other set up by a desparation pass to Winslow that went for like 75 yards and the other on a 30 yard pass to the 10 that should have been overturned but wasn't. (My WR was clearly OOB)

But the frustrating part was that after being down 14-0 I took the lead with 3:30 to go in the game 24-21. It was a repeat of my game last week. Get behind early, then wake up. All I had to do was stop him and milk some clock and he proceeded to march 80 yards for a TD. I have never had so much trouble stopping a guy's passing game. It was the first game that I was unable to get heat on the QB and Bulger picked me apart.

Thr rams are 3-10 but Grunt is 2-1. Glad I wont see him again.

i'm on a 1 game win streak!

can't wait to play again!

I saw the play-by-play, Bill, pretty exciting stuff. You need to play the Jeff Blake Bear XPress if you want to make your secondary feel good again.

1 TD, 7 Ints, 28.x QB rating.

I was telling Kruza last night I can't figure it out -- Blake's rated higher than Grossman, but I can't get anything going with him at the helm. I'm seriously thinking of benching him for Craig "49 OVR" Krenzel and running T. Jones 50 times a game.

Is there a wishbone playbook in this game?

LOL. I've played 3 games of ESPN NFL 2K5 online and maybe 10 offline.

I will start Edinger at QB before that joker takes the field for me

Good game, Brando70.

Your D is very good too. The Bears did a great job in keeping Javon Walker in check and also smothering Bubba Franks when I was looking for him. And I was too scared to test Mike Brown deep. That dude is ball hawk in this game. I think I threw only one pass longer than 20 yard during the entire game. At any rate, I had to rely on Robert Ferguson a lot more than I wanted to in that game, but lucky for me that he stepped up and made enough plays to keep some drives going.
