Let's try for 6pm PST tonight (Tuesday)? I haven't played the damned game in over a month, so my already shaky grasp of the subtleties of the interface is long gone.
It is always a good idea to get your excuse out in a public forum as early as possible =)

Sorry Way, MSN is telling me you're starting up NFL 2k5 but I am stuck here at work for another 1.5 hrs.
If you can hold off that long, we'll play as soon as I walk in the door.

What is your schedule like tonight? I can probably get on for my asskicking this evening.

I work until 8pm Mountain time and will be home by 8:30 at the latest. If that doesn't work I don't work tomorrow (thursday) and have zero plans so I can be online at any time.

I will check in between 7:30 and 8pm tonight (provided I remember this time!). Hopefully we can get this done and be a shining example to the rest of these slackers =P

HOLY CRAP
We played our game, there were no disconnects and I got through my first game without having a player get hurt!
It was a bit sloppy considering neither of us have played in probably 1.5 months, but ended up being a really close game that was a lot of fun.
I think it basically came down to my one interception with Gold which lead to my first lead of the game, and then this play: Matt Hasselbeck (SEA) pass across the middle dropped by Darrell Jackson (SEA) as Jackson was wide open and that would of put you ahead at that point.
Good game Way, thanks.

: Matt Hasselbeck (SEA) pass across the middle dropped by Darrell Jackson (SEA) Sometimes that game is TOO goddamned realistic. Grrrr. It was a very competitive game, and lots of fun. Now- the rest of you jackasses get to listen to me ride you to complete you games =) If murdoc and I can finally get it done, ANYONE can.

All right, if you two can actually get a game done, then that means the rest of us slackers need to pick it up. I'm going to set a deadline of Monday. If your games aren't done by Monday, I'm going to sim the games and adjust the schedule accordingly.
Pig? You there?

Best I can do it shoot for trying to get on 10pm EST, however, my play schedule is anything but regular. If I'm holding people up, please proceed without me. Xilren

Guys, I apologize profusely. My work has completely taken over my life, I haven't even logged into the site in quite some time, much less been able to spare an hour or so to play football. Haem I'd say it'd probably be a good idea to Sim my games :( Again, I apologize.

Ok, I'm finally going to sim the last two games of this week tonight and advance the season. It'll probably happen around 10 pm CST tonight.

I went ahead and simmed the other two games last night. Indy squeaked by Buffalo in a rainy, 9-7 win. Yep, no TD's for the Colts. Meanwhile, Philly barely bested Houston 24-21 in OT, in another rainy game. I advanced the schedule, so look for your opponent and try to get a game in within the next 2 weeks.

I got Philly this week(s). Xilren, any specific times work best for you? I'm out of town for the weekend, but will be free tonight and friday night. Next week starts to get difficult for me as I start night shifts.

Ozzu kicked my motherfucking ass Saturday night. It was fairly close until the 2nd half. I had Eddie George pretty well contained. 14-7 with about 1 minute left in the first half, and I have first and goal on the 5 yard line (I think). Damn if I don't throw an INT which he returns for a TD. That threw me into a mostly passing situation, which really didn't help. I ended up with 5 INT's to his 3. I should have started double-teaming Terry Glenn earlier, because he was flat out burning Ken Lucas deep. (Yeah, I traded Way for Ken Lucas, who did get my first INT in this game). Ozzix managed to return a 2nd INT deep in the red zone for a TD, which is pretty much what sealed my fate. That and my defense apparently lost all ability to tackle Eddie George in the 4th quarter. He went from averaging around 2-3 yards a carry to around 5-6 in the fourth. No idea what happened.
Oh and thanks a fucking lot... my starting free safety, Bashir, is now out for 14 weeks with a fractured arm. Luckily, I have Sanders, who is a decent backup, but Bashir was the fucking man for me with INT's.

I keep forgetting to log in and see who I am supposed to play- anyone know? I have been playing NBA 2k5 the past few days, but could switch back to pigskin pretty easily. Holla!

You play Houston (Zetleft) at home.
Pig Destroyer (Devourment - Buffalo) plays Alluvian (Green Bay).
Xilren (Philadelphia) plays Murdoc (Tampa Bay).

Yeah it was pretty tough up until the int to start the 4th quarter. After that return for a TD, I decided I'd stop letting Vinny fuck me up and just pound the ball. Anytime I start getting pass happy, bad things happen. Serious question, is there anyone who wants to trade for Vinny? You could give me a cripple and a box of rocks and I'd be happy. :-D

I'll give you Sorgi, but I really want some fucking cover cornerbacks instead of a broke down ass QB. You shoulda played Henson.

Hmmm, Vinny for Sorgi and a scrub DT and I'd be ok with that. I have absolutely zero depth at DT and ANYONE who could come in when they get tired would be ideal. Then again, I'm not sure the Colts trading D away would be the best idea. :-D

Hoping Xil checks either his PMs or this thread. I move out this weekend and it's going to be really hectic to get our game in if we don't play this week.
Kinda sad that these games are so damn hard to schedule...

Since Xil hasn't responded in this thread or to my PM I guess we won't be playing our game.

Do we want to continue this, or is the interest level officially dead?

I am all for playing still, but if interest is down, we can restart again when training camp rolls around. Maybe we can drum up support for a baseball league?

Disappointing that after two cracks at this (here and at The Morlocks) I wasn't able to get by week 4 before it tanked.
If anyone wants to set up semi-regular games with me, fire me a PM since there's a pretty good chance I'd love to play.

I'm so sad  , but yeah I think interest has died. Once football season starts up again, and ESPN 2k6 never comes out, I'm sure interest will respark. Oh God, I'm going to go jump off a bridge... *waves*

I guess I'll delete the league. However, I DO want to do an online baseball league with ESPN MLB 2k5, once they update the rosters and I find out how many games we have to play.
