PrintAccording to the good people at weather.com, the glorious weather we have been enjoying is soon to be at an end. I could curl up into a little ball and weep at the prospect of the coming six months of darkness and doom, but instead I have decided to be excited about this:
Also, I'll be honest; the main reason I threw this up was so I could share this with the world:

Hey someone else is awake!

He's awful.
He’s the highest-rated back on the team, but I swear I get a lot more out of Morris and Duckett. Mo can cut a corner and Duckett falls forward. Jones does neither.
But at least he’s pretty solid in real life. The Hawks don’t have much going for them right now. And with a JV receiving corps, they’re going to need some running backs to step up. Please keep not sucking, Julius. Please.

I’ve always had that issue with EA football games. Speed is the most important attribute by far, in all players; if you want to win 75 Super Bowls/National Championships in a row, just find the team with the most speed. It’s annoying.
Someday, someone will make a sports game that reflects reality. Until then, I shall continue to break controllers like there is no tomorrow.

I used to laugh at the people who bitched about EA all the time.
In my mind, EA is responsible for some of the best games I’ve ever played, and the NCAA and NFL games are always “good enough.” But in the past two years. I’ve taken a bit of a step back, and I’m starting to realize that EA is shorting me every year. (I know, I know, I’m way late on this.)
I thought NFL 2K5 was mediocre, so please don’t take this as a “bring back 2k!” rant, but Madden really does have fundamental flaws that have needed correction for years. Some competition would be nice.
All that said, I have to say I’m liking the new Madden IQ thing. It’s an inexact science, obviously, and you have to play 10 games or so before it really adapts to you, but it seems to be understanding the fact that I can defend the run just fine but I suck at passing, and it’s adjusting to me. It’s a great idea. It might not work perfectly, but good on the developers for at least trying. For the past decade, finding a proper difficulty level for Madden has been a bitch. I hope more sports-game developers take the hint and try to create dynamic AI like this.
Nah, I haven't.
I don’t really enjoy playing online — for reasons including the cheap, dishonest assholes you mention.
I have no idea why I keep paying for Live. Roster updates, I guess?
I like to stop in the middle of a game and jump on the computer for a half-hour.
Or go get a beer or make a phone call. I’m way too fidgety to sit down and dedicate myself to something for 40 minutes or whatever.
Plus I generally don’t like other human beings.

As the risk of bringing this on-topic
How bad do we think next year’s offense could be, given that:
A) Adrian is likely gone
B) Raul is likely gone
C) Chuck doesn’t want to sign anybody
Thought both Clement and Wlad figure to be better next year
and Yuni could hardly have been worse, so that’s 1/3 of our lineup off the top that figures to suck at least slightly less than they sucked this year

Supposed to be 92 here today
which just blows goats. I like heat, in the summer, but 92 is a bit much – and in September it’s ridiculous. No thunderstorms, thankfully, but there’s no way I should be having to run the AC in September, dammit.
Nice Guys Finish Third - Hopelessly lost, but makin' good time.
Yeah, I know
and every time I tell my sister in Tucson how hot it is here she just tells me to fuck off. It’s just not RIGHT, though, that it’s 90+ in September here – that’s part of the attraction of LIVING here, is that the 90+ heat is usually confined to August. Ah well, there’s cold beer in the fridge when I get home so that helps.

Dumbest thing you have ever done:
’bruin’s above thread on cell phone as mouse got me to thinking about dumb things I have done. Here is the worst one.
Getting into my car I place my left hand on the roof to help lift myself into the driver’s seat. To this day I have no clue what I was thinking when I left my hand where it was and reached across my body with my right hand and shut the car door. I didn’t realize what I had done until I tried to grab the steering wheel and my left hand then move. I looked up to see my mangled hand shut in the door, then the pain started.
Honorable mention would be the summer I spent filling my vehicle’s power steering reservoir with motor oil. I couldn’t figure out why it kept telling me I was always low on oil.

Lets see, my weekend:
Engagement party: Fun, but people bought me WAY to many drinks
Seahawks game: Sucked
Friend backs into my car door: No big deal, she’s insured. Then I find out today there’s enough damage to possibly total the car.
I'm back to liking midgets too much.
That's either a really fragile car
or your friend was going really fast. That sucks.
Nice Guys Finish Third - Hopelessly lost, but makin' good time.
Older vehicle (1995 Honda), and she must have hit it just right.
It still drives just fine, but the insurance says it’s only worth around $3,500.00 and they say the repairs will be very close to that much. She got it right in the passenger door, I’m wondering if she damaged the unibody or something.
On the other hand, I could take the money and just go get a truck.
I'm back to liking midgets too much.
No.
Smaller, fuel efficient truck (4 or 6 cylinder). Preferably a king cab, but a lot of that depends on how much they would give me for the Honda if they total it.
I'm back to liking midgets too much.
Is that the same one you've been trying to sell for a while now?
That’s about what I’m looking for though (you’ve taken good care of it). But your asking price might be a bit above what I get if they total the Honda.
I'm back to liking midgets too much.
Nah this isn't my truck.
I’m actually going to hang on to mine because sometimes you just need a truck for truck things.
However, the Hardbody is a great truck that you’ll be able to drive into the ground. 330,000k on mine and still going.
I've had a few Nissan trucks, and they're great.
“Needing a truck for truck things” is exactly why I’m looking for one, but I also need it to be my daily driver (I hate having vehicles sit around). If I could find a Toyota or Nissan for the right price, that’s what I want. I’ve had good experiences with both.

If you need a truck for truck things
and you only do truck things a few times a year, don’t buy a truck – buy a car and join Zipcar, and get trucks from Zipcar.

It needs to get bigger, and once it can function as a full minor league, the NBA needs to scrap the age limit. Talented kids are gonna turn pro ASAP no matter what, so might as well ditch the NCAA one and done charade we have now and just give them a place to develop.

But if you remove the thing that everyone hates from the clubhouse
