The Coaching Career of Rusty Reid

Posted 12-03-2013 at 03:22 AM by Hellisan
Faced with the news that there may never be another college football game, I had to finally purchase NCAA 14 about 7 days ago. Truth is, I've been through the video game ringer with NCAA over the years. From 1996 to roughly 2005 I was a franchise/dynasty posting fanatic, just doing my single player thing happily. Once the NCAA games started coming out one after the other I ditched Madden. The turnover and shorter seasons just really lend themselves to the reporting process. Then online came...

An impassioned plea to EA for complete text files from all games

Where I'm coming from: I'm now 35 years of age, married, and hopefully there will be chillens on the way in the near future. I'm a certified dynasty fanatic. There is nothing about this mode that I could ever get enough of. I hope it continues to get better, but I love it. I participate in an online dynasty (traditionfootball.com) with 11 really great guys that I have a lot of fun competing against.

For the longest time, I've tracked my teams by posting dynasty reports. Ok, I...

Another athlete makes a mockery of the American justice system

Yet again, a precedent has been set. Whatever you want to do, it's cool as long as you're rich and famous.

You mean to tell me, that you can go out drinking, end up WELL over the legal limit for blood-alcohol, speed, hit and kill a pedestrian, and spend just 24-30 days in jail? Yep. As long as you have plenty of money to buy off the (apparently money hungry) family of the victim, and as long as your name is famous enough.

You might say: "Well he also has...

The ratings that work - and don't - in NCAA '09

First, I apologize for the length of this. I can't seem to write short articles - never have been able to. Second, this would be a helluva lot more useful if it was written within a month of the game's release way back in 2008, I realize that. Still, I find that maybe some insight can be gleaned into what to expect from the next iteration, and maybe it will show a few people out there how to look for these things in the future.

We really need a live look-in feature with NCAA. But even if EA doesn't end up providing this, my league is still pretty much determined to have some games that everybody can watch. That's why some of the league members have started broadcasting games on Justin.tv.

It just so happened that the most amazing finish in the history of our league occurred while several of us both in the Tradition and Old Fellas leagues were watching.

It was UCLA against Arizona State....
