So I just renewed my subscription for a month...figured I could play a little bit over the summer now that school is over. Does anyone around here still play?

I've been addicted to the game since I picked it back up a few days. I've completed like 5 or 6 scenarios over the past few days

JOE IS NOT AMUSED

I just started playing it again after seeing this topic...I quickly remembered why I loved this game

I managed to catch the season premiere of the second season......quite kickass I'd say. I'm a big fan of Brian Cranston since his days of playing Hal on Malcolm in the Middle

Dude, didnt you hear? They got SAGE ROSENFELS man. SAGE ROSENFELS. Superbowl ring incoming.

Yeah, the wideout draft class this year is REALLY deep, which is also why I can't see the Pats (or most teams for that matter) dropping a huge wad of cash for TO. This year, odds are you can get a second day receiver that will turn out to be pretty decent.

Yeah, Pats are definitely not going to bother. They just traded for Greg Lewis from the Eagles and signed Shawn Springs today. I really can't predict who he'll land with, it all depends on how picky he is as far as teams go - I'm under the impression he wants a ring, but he might not pass up a really huge deal.

Yeahhhhh boyeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

Could we call him good then? Lets just call him bald.

I think I've pretty much stopped paying attention to anything you say are you saying that there is NO CHANCE that Alex Smith can have a pretty good/decent career? Alex Smith will probably never be Drew Brees or Eli Manning, but he can be decent, he has some pretty good tools, he needs to find a way to stay healthy though. And with right coaching and some tuteledge from Warner(if he signs) he may be able to put things together, but he's not a lost cause yet. Yes, yes I am. He'll have a solid career as one of the best perennial back-up quarterbacks to ever play the game, though. (Y) Did you say the same thing about, Jake Delhome, Tom Brady, Kurt Warner, Marc Bulger, Matt Schaub, David Garrard? On another note, i still think the vikings either need to get Harrison or Walker(if he becomes available) or trade for Boldin, to help out Rosenfels or trade up and get Maclin. I also wish they would sign someone like Chris Simms(he's a FA isn't he) to compete with Rosenfels and Jackson. Although i believe Sage will be a pretty good QB atleast good enough i'm admittedly biased on that. And although i think T-Jack isn't as horrible as some make him out to be, he still needs to learn how to play under pressure. You're serious? Jake Delhomme and Kurt Warner were undrafted and not a single one of the guys you named were even a first day draft pick. Alex Smith was selected FIRST in the 2005 draft, and with that comes expectations. You can't even compare him with the other quarterbacks. Delhomme, Brady, Warner and Bulger were drafted late or weren't even drafted, and frankly, some of them weren't expected to be worth a shit. David Garrard has had mild success and in all honesty, Matt Schaub hasn't proven that he's worth a shit quite yet. Alex Smith was hyped up so much as a great talent, and still shit the bed. He's been a complete and utter bust, and when he's not dealing with some sort of shoulder injury, he's riding the bench. Almost every single quarterback taken in 2005 has seen more success then Smith at some point or another. Jason Campbell, Aaron Rodgers, Kyle Orton, Derek Anderson, Dan Orlovsky, Ryan Fitzpatrick were all taken in 2005 with a few other busts. I'm not saying I think every single one of these guys are better then Smith, but look at all the chances the 49ers had to get something right. I don't really know how to make it much more clear - Alex Smith is a failure, and will continue to be one. Maybe if the '9ers give him the boot, he might find himself in a better situation elsewhere, but beyond that, I see nothing even remotely inspiring in Smith's future. Sorry dawg.

Dear sweet jesus. Boley, Bernard AND Canty? Serious business.

OHSNAP~!

He had an awesome year. ONE year. Prior to this season, he hadn't been a starting quarterback since high school. Needless to say, some people are skeptical.

What new coach DOESN'T try to do that?

(Y)

I'd say they got a pretty good deal though. Vrabel and Cassel for a 2nd round pick? Despite the questions surrounding Cassel and what he's capable of, it's a great bargain. And lol @ the Ravens completely and utterly failing in this free agency. We've lost Bart Scott, Jason Brown, and now Jim Leonhard and Corey Ivey are talking to the Jets as well AND there's still a huge question mark in regards to Ray Lewis. Rex Ryan is completely raping our roster

Bart Scott can die in a fire (N)

Indeed. Now hopefully we can re-sign Jim Leonhard

1. Michael Jordan 2. Cal Ripken Jr. 3. Jerry Rice 4. Lawrence Taylor 5. Dan Marino

I'm down with that.

lol, pixies. Solid list though Matt, 8/10 Conclusion - Wu Tang Clan Neighbours - Gnarls Barkley Microphone Fiend - Rage Against the Machine Newport Living - Cute Is What We Aim For The Nature of Reality - Oasis Your Friends are Gone - Circa Survive Dreams Be Dreams - Jack Johnson Here He Come - Ice Cube Ambulance - TV On The Radio Zoo - Lil Wayne

Aaaaaand Rex Ryan signs a four year deal to become the Jets head coach. That's SIX assistant coaches in Brian Billick's tree that have gone to become head coaches now. Impressive.
