May Day 10

with the roster updat today i guess they are going to have vick and favre

Id say yes. Definitely a big jump from past Maddens. far from just a roster update

Get there at 11AM. Park in the main lots at the stadium. Bring copious amounts of food, beverage, and a grill. Also invest in one of those Bills Bean Bag toss games, those are a big hit with anyone. After the game, hang in the parking lot. Perhaps have a small "re-grill". Then driving out will be less of a hassle.

Oh nice. Steve Johnson exists now. Ill have to pick up hamdan also. Although I feel really comfortable and do well with Fitzpatrick as QB for some reason. Played 4 preseason games and I was unstoppable with Fitz. Some great comebacks too.

I havent started my season yet because I am waiting to finish my NCAA season so I can import the 1st draft class... you have to do this Season 1 right after preseason. The uploading for NCAA occurs after your 1st season. This delay will give me a chance to download these updated rosters. I think I will lift the suspension of Vick.... if you can edit players, I have an urge to make his injury resistance at 0... but I like to keep things realistic and let things play out. Im going to try like hell to draft Gresham. In my season I control OU and UB. Gresham is an unstoppable monster in NCAA 10.

The EA NHL game got pretty stagnant IMO from about 02 to 07. I switched over to 2K as I felt they were committed to improving and creating a great product for hockey fans. EA 08, 09 were huge improvements and IMO smoked 2K's. With what is promised with 2010, it may be a huge step. I would like to see them improve the Owner mode/Franchise mode on NHL as well.

I agree this game has made a lot of big strides for Madden.... (cant wait for NHL too.... seems ramped up also). Halftime show is good, but it would be nice if it got taken to the next level. A little more with the out of town action/league events. Highlights from other games/key injury news would be great. NHL Hockey in 1991 got out of town highlights down, but nobody has been able to reproduce that technology. Also show some current out of town scores during the game itself. Customizable stadium music has been added to most sports titles. Madden continues to leave it out. I have to check out the Franchise mode "owner" options. I really like the ability to make stadium improvements, build a new stadium, or move the team (with CPU controlled teams moving once in awhile).

the way I see it is: If the majority of the section is standing, its OK. Esp if the Bills are on defense. If your in the back row its OK. If someone asks you to sit and you arent obstructed by another stander, you should sit. big plays, good happenings, etc everyone who can should get their asses up.

This argument has been made countless times, all across the country. Both sides have valid points and strong opinions... (i happen to think he is scum, but deserved a shot in the league at some point). I dont think anyone should be naive enough to listen to his interviews and point to it and say 'see, he is really sorry'. The guy has 6 million or so reasons to pay lip service to the public and NFL officials. The NFL also has $ millions of reasons they would like to see Vick painted in a comeback story. If he is truly remorseful, lets see if he puts up any of that money or significant effort into reversing his torture of animals.

go to any penitentiary and tell someone when they get out they can get 6 million dollars... they will say anything you want. Talk is very very cheap. Micheal Vick aint shite

I was extremely horrified with his performance last week. Impressed this week. We'll see how he does in the rubber match next weekend

I really do think a lot of football fans would be bummed out if the Bills left. Not to the point of boycott or anything... But Buffalo is a decent piece of the heritage of the NFL. I have lived a few places outside of WNY and not a lot of people hate the Bills or the fans. A ton of people have crazy stories of attending a game at the Ralph and/or living with/working with a huge quirky Bills fan. Someone said it above, but Bills home gamedays are some of the only really authentic NFL experiences left. From the tailgate, to the crowd noise, to the ordinary Joes in all classes of seating. after the Monday night game against Cleveland, someone on ESPN page 2 wrote up a really complimentary article about the Bills fans/atmosphere. The same article tore apart the Pats' game day experience. I believe we are viewed around the league's fans a lot more toward the Green Bay Packers than the Los Angeles Rams.

He is the Redzone target we have been missing. Did you see him attack that ball? The DB had zero chance. I realize it was no Champ Bailey. But I really liked the way Nelson looked on that play He also made a nice catch (although a little short of the sticks) when we were pinned deep

gotta see how the practice squad does in a two minute drill

this game is rediculous. its taken about 15 minutes to play a minute and a half

NFL would be done as far as Im concerned. I would probably get my fill with NCAA and choose a program to follow closely. If I had to choose a different NFL team in the absence of the Bills, it would be Cleveland.... Even if the Bills moved to Toronto

no steve johnson?

Im in the back row and my entire section pretty much stands throughout the game. love it

let me know if you need to find out how to download the fully named NCAA rosters

haha.

Im listening to sports talk in Philly now and the majority of people are pissed. Palentonio (sp) said on ESPN that people left the game immediately after they announced Vick was signed and he saw a woman crying. I expected the Fecals fans to really turn a blind eye to Vick's past, but they are impressing me. Maybe the plan was to bring someone in town that people will hate more than McNabb

even if Vick were to get where he was before he was caught.... he still isnt that great. I would take McNabb any day of the week. I cant imagine Vick will be better than he was either. I cant imagine you can just 'make' someone a WR so suddenly. And if they line him up at RB or anything he is going to get his head taken off. I believe they got him as a backup to McNabb. Andy Reid will listen to the fans and bench McNabb when the team struggles

I am anti-Vick. But witnessing the diahreah called Fitzpatrick makes me panic about the season. Something needs to be done at the QB position for sure. Can I get behind Vick? No. But my seasons are already paid for and my tailgates are planned.

It seems to me to be a very good sign that all the d lineman want to fight Wood.
