GG BigAT. I really missed Vilma and Dickerson in that one...my backups just missed making some big plays. It's also kind of frustrating when my 99 trucking and 99 carry RB has the same amount broken tackles and fumbles (2). Ingram just couldn't get it done in the red zone....though my FB decided not to block on one of those plays.

Pretty spot on, I usually live and die by my manual LB play. I do get the occasional morphing INT against FMT though, even when I'm not using the Steelers!

AT, when do you want to play?

Phone folks: my upgrade has come up and right now I'm deciding between the Razr Maxx or the Galaxy Nexus. Anyone have any experience with either of them?

Wife has Razr and I have the Nexus. Overall the Nexus is the better phone hands down. Only thing holding it back is the battery life which can be fixed with ex battery and the image quality on the camera. It takes good pictures but not great pictures.

ICS pushes the Nexus over the top. Razr will get ICS but it won't be for a while yet. I do like the Razr and the maxx batt life is insane.

Try them out in store. Ultimately the smoothness of the os is what is going to win you over.

I'm kinda meh with my Galaxy Nexus now. ICS is awesome and the phone is cool for sure, but the radio switching issues between 3G and 4G is horrible. I don't know how many times I've had to look something up real quick only to see my phone go from 4G->3G->no data, then have to wait a minute or so for data to come back up. Supposedly an update is going to fix it, but Verizon is stupid. This issue has been there from the start and they haven't done squat...and I have no faith that the update will actually fix anything. Hope I'm wrong though.

If the next iPhone comes out with LTE support, I might just switch.

My friend has a Razr and he said he was able to easily root and put ICS on it, so that isn't necessarily an issue. I really don't understand why battery life hasn't become a more important metric for smart phones considering how significant it is, which is making me also lean towards the Razr Maxx.

Expense. Easier to sell you a larger battery than eat the initial cost. Battery tech is lacking. I totally expect a smartphone to last a day and half these days. Its sad we barely get a work shift and commute.

And I hate MLB because it's already difficult to hit, then you add even a split second of lag which turns a home run in to a weak popfly

Sucks to go out like that, I dominated the stats aside from TO's. Wellie would have been proud of that Dline play. 11 TFL, 7 sacks, 3 FF, lulz.
