Wow, go away from a thread for a couple hours and all the sudden I get lambasted because I'm whining about losing.

I simply pointed out that the squirrels beat us because of their excellent special teams play, while also pointing out that in the game this game is designed to simulate playing starters on special teams rarely if ever happens. Take from that what you will, I'm not butt hurt about losing, although I am kinda butt hurt about dropping 4 passes, 1 of which coulda been a TD, but those are the breaks of the game. Once again congratulations, hopefully we'll get a chance to play you again this season

Because he blew his knees out in a preseason game returning a kick off, and missed the rest of the season. At the time the coach took a ton of heat for 1) putting a starter on special team. 2) putting a starter in there in a preseason game.

The situation fits the example, not the color, he could had been red, blue or purple and I would have still used this example.


sarcasm bro.

No, they really did mean it the way it sounded, they've done this with every loss and tie game they've ever had.


Where on earth did that come from. I had congradulated the squirrels for a good game and mentioned that their solid special teams play was difference in the game. In no way was I whining about losing. Just statimg what i thought the difference in the game was Yes it sucks and the game could have gone the other way, but it didn't.

As with the tie you mentioned I believe my comment last season was I had made some bad tactical chooses in that game and underestamated your team. Which is far from whining and more like taking the blame for the loss on the coaching staff.

The fact is the squirrels beat us and now I have to make adjustments.

As for the other four losses we had last season I don't recall "whining" about any of them.

Sins. I was happy to get 3 points
Monkeys they are just Evil Good
Bengals. They had our number in the playoffs
wildcats were much better than us
pewnts. Heck they beat everyone expect the monkeys.

Sure I might have thrown some sarcasm out about getting lucky enough to play the Sins. It was Sarcasm

As for Jpowers comments I support my player in his statement that starters on special team is doesnt happen in the NFL. But if the sim let's you do it than my hats off to you and it is my bad for not scouting the team properly. Another learning experience for the coaching staff

Actually we beat everyone including the monkey's. We lost to the Benglas in the 2nd round of the playoffs.
