What will the topic be after today's game between the Blaze and Alpine? Interceptions?

Not feeling very confident that we can put up any kind of resistance, especially after I screwed up and failed to get Alpine any home promos this season (got to hope for 7-8th seed).

Lets make a couple of whine threads possible after the game and put them on a spinner and see what it lands on and create GLBs new flavor of whine for the next 24 hours

Half time shows too important if the Blaze wins, not important enough if Alpine wins.

I do think the whine threads is fair though. No game should ever have more than 100 points combined, this time it was more than 200. It is extremely embarrassing for GLB and takes all the fun out of the game.

I am tempted to get as many guys as possible to sign up on quitting GLB after this season if the goal of the game is not to simulate football (at least to a certain extent). This has gone on for too long without Bort giving a damn about it.

You're going to quit when arcade hits its peak? Cmon man.

Seriously though we could both go 100% run and hb/fb passing and bitch about that if you want? Might start a completely different riot!

Alpine is hitting our peak next season as well. Our key dots are mostly season 8 day 0.

We totaled zero pass attempts to HB/FBs against NBA. So there is no need to cover any of those guys.

The game actually simulates football to a certain reasonable degree....it's the agents who cause the sim to look crazy at times (and a natural consequence of not allowing in-game adjustments).

If the agents "cooperate" in trying to achieve a " real football sim" then the results are pretty reasonable (see MPHD games). If the agents think this is a fantasy game (which it also is) and want to do something you just don't see in the NFL (Jam Arcade) then it looks like that.

When those two teams meet up, the results are at least entertaining. To be fair, I have never had a problem competing in this game using very traditional football tactics and builds that are not terribly extreme.

If something like the Jam strategy becomes broken, it will surely be nerfed. I am not convinced that it is over powered right now, but time will tell.

Well, Alpine played MPHD in the off-season and that game was ridiculously high scoring as well! 55-37 should almost never happen.

"Should never happen" is a little loaded....Alpine has one of the best offenses in the game and was playing against a team that they out leveled across the board, and that had only a couple guys wearing 72 gear. I would think they should score a few TDs?

Given the number of plays run in that sim, I don't think that score is outside the realm of the reasonable...towards the top end, but not implausible at all.

I agree that it isn't the worst and I would be okay with it if it happened perhaps once or twice during a full season. Furthermore we ran the ball 48 times compared to 36 pass attempts. Flip those numbers and you can add a TD or two to both teams, while still being a balanced offense.
