Tonight around midnight Central Time, I'll be available to play any game on my preseason schedule. I've got my DSL set up, again, and will be ready to go. BRING IT! :)

Alright, so here are the highlights from the Pittsburgh/San Diego preseason tilt:

Antonio Gates get the Chargers into scoring position with a nice catch-and-run.

Same drive, Gates makes another catch -- this one worth six points.

Tomlison rips off a big run to put the Chargers into Pittsburgh territory.

Tomlinson catches a last-second pass, which ultimately sets up a Lorenzo Neal score to make it 14-0

The Steelers catch the Chargers with this huge pass play to make the game 14-7

On the ensuing kickoff, Darren Sproles nearly gives the ball right back.

The Steelers watch their hopes flutter to the ground as an open receiver can't grab Roethlisberger's pass.

Cool.

I presume you're the Texans. If you're around in the next little while, I'll play my game against you...

I'm gonna try to beat you by 60 now, that's even worse than a KC Queefs fan.

I won't be using the Raiders since Rors has them, but don't worry, one day we will get an exhibition game and you'll be mystified. Norv never answered my calls all season, look where it got him.

Shit, I didn't think FMT was one of my opponents for pre-season. I forgot to enter stats! :(

Playing wasabi now, if anyone wants a game after that I am down.

You contact him via the forum :)

Unfortunately, my schedule until late tonight is tough. I've just got a few minutes right now (not enough for a game) and then I'm busy probably till around 2 a.m. ET. My wife and I have been working exact opposite schedules for the last two weeks, so I'm at her beck and call today.

Also, if it's essential for league business, I'll install AIM. I do have MSN currently, so if that works for most, let me know...

Sickboy, we can try to get our game in when you get a chance tonight. I won't be home til midnight again. Let me know when you're ready. Preferably through email, as it seems you don't have AIM.

mmolinajr@gmail.com


Gmail Notifier will let me know when I get an email.

Rams you're my last preseason opponent, when you wanna play?

OK. I'll get back to you soon. Chances are between 10 and 11 on the nose will work best. I'll post here after the visiting family goes home and I can confer with the wife.... damn family commitments :)

How does 10:15 sound? Wife just decided to play a couple of songs on Taiko Drum Master, but that should just take a few minutes....

EDIT: If so, I'll hop online as soon as she's done... I'm SickBoyGa

10:15 it is.

Rest assured, I will put more than 7 points on the board, unlike your last two opponents!

Fucking DM wants to play me now, can we push it back to like 10:30!?

Fucking can't connect to DM. Keep it 10:15

And forget 10:15. If you're ready now, I'm going to bring my PS2 back in to where my modem is and get it going right now. :) 5 minutes I should be up and running.

Okay, I can play now. What is your EA nick?

And our last Madden 04 game was a result of the chargers being horrible.

Yeah, you had brutal luck. Good thing for me, though, cause I sure wasn't playing defense as well as I'd have liked to (never mind my brutal -- outside of Tomlinson -- offense).

(I'm gonna have to look at your out routes... a couple of brutal plays where I saw them coming, and saw the corners just stand there and give your guys their patterns...)

I am still handcuffed to the PC, so there will be highlights eventually... I'd much rather play using a TV, though, so no one expect this in regular season...

The 3-4 has some inherent weaknesses that you did pretty well covering up. Your defense is really good. But still, that freakin fumble, the int in the endzone when i could have kicked the tying field goal, Gates wide wide wide open behind everyone. CK am cry. :(

All my preseason games are done, bring on the regular season.

PS: Sorry for running up the score DM! :( It was only a field goal. :(

Oh great, I have to play the defending world champion and his overrated Bears D in week 1.

Well, if someone's gonna take him down, it's gonna be me. This would be a marquis Monday night matchup!

Oh noes! The Chargers!

I'm gonna be home most of today, Sickboy. Tue/Wed after 6:30pm PST. Thursday pretty much all day and Friday after 6:30pm PST.

Ah yes, FMT wins 21-14 with not one but TWO fumble return TDs. And thats not the end of it, Galloway has the most wide open game tying TD in the history of Madden and guess what happens? You know the end of that story, kids.

Moral of the story though? I QUIT!

FUCK THIS GAME!!!!!!111111111111
 
here is what DM didn't tell you:

early in the 2nd half, dm is up 7-3. i throw, the pass is picked off by dexter "fraud mvp" jackson, and then frank gore says not on my watch bitch. hit stick, fumble, arnaz picks it up and runs 70+ yards for the TD! how sweet it is!

Rex Grossman is completely healthy with the current roster update too! :D

I'm still fumbling around the PS2 controller though a little bit.
