Dave's PS Online Power Rankings (Aug. 24 edition)

[Realist]

Hell, I'm 47 and care about how I finish in this league. It's not a mature or immature thing. I just wanna have a good record. Stop trying to be cool, Realist. We play in a Madden league where we draft fake players ... we care about our records. It isn't a mark against us as adults.

Dave, I never said I didn't care about my record. If I didn't care about 220 I wouldn't be in it. But what I don't care about is how you would rank me. We are debating about 2 different things here so I will clarify both.

1) On topic with this thread, I don't care how you would rank me or anyone else for that matter. I would enjoy reading it and take it with a grain of salt. Just like the prediction thread I started. It was all in fun and I let it be known that it was just good bathroom reading. I have my opinion on people here, just like they would have theirs on me. Doesn't change anything in the grand scheme of things. Like I said, regardless if I win or lose vs you, you wont know because I'm not going to come out and say "Well I only loss/won by X amount because I was holding back". I don't go all out every single game I play and I know I'm not the only person who does. Hell sometimes I go all out and still lose (See Super Bowl). It is what it is.

2) I care about how I finish in the league game wise, meaning getting to the playoffs etc, (and playing sim games), but if I don't it isn't the end of the world for me. I'll just try to get better via draft and FA. That's all. Not sure why you are making this a big deal when it really isn't. If me "not playing hard" is offensive to you, then I'm not sure what to tell you.

I have never disputed that I'm a stubborn fuck.

But a great addition to the league none the less

Dave FWIW I'll just give you a quick example of what I meant about holding back. Before last years NFCCG, windy had spanked me twice. I spent some time in the lab trying to figure out his offense. I knew that there was a chance I might meet up with him again in the playoffs. Had windy and I played a random game prior to the NFCCG, I wouldn't have played how I game-planned for him in the NFCCG last year. I wouldn't want to show any of my cards to that mfer lol

That's different than playing me in a simple online game. I am not a threat to play you in the 220 final. Everyone knows that. I might upset you in a league game, possibly (assuming I believe you're a non-manual player), but I am not a threat to leave the AFC as a champ.

True enough, but i might need that win for seeding purposes too. All I'm saying is, if me not showing all if my tricks in a random game causes you to question my 'integrity', as long as i get that W in week 15, if that game means something by then, I'm good. Question it all you want lol

And I consider myself a hybrid player. Manual and non depending on the situation

[x0xHumblex0x]

no....
all i am saying and from what i can tell is that he wants to do this in 220 to boost the interest even more.
he is only suggesting you play him the way you would in a regular game in 220.
no more and no less....
he is only trying to help bring some "chit chat" into the 220 arena.

plus; he does really nice game write ups....
