I am going out of town for a week starting this weekend. Any chance you can play later tonight or Thursday night?

Does tonight at 9:30 work?

[Grammaticus]

Okay!

[Julio Riddols]

Sorry about the delay, got hired at Shaw Floors this past week and been spending days doing paperwork and interviews and pee tests and whatnot. My pregnant fiancee also seems to be passing her pregnancy symptoms to me as well, as I've been tired and moody and been dealing with damn post nasal drip since about a month in. Apparently this is called Couvade syndrome.

[Kodos]

We're a fertile bunch! Congrats!

[Kodos]

Hi JR, when do you want get our game in? I can do night's, except for Tuesday and Friday this week.

[Julio Riddols]

Well, I just got back from vacation today, but I am ready to rock by tomorrow.. I can do Monday night, what time?

[Grammaticus]

Can you start at 9pm Eastern time?

Yep, I'll be on and ready.

[Julio Riddols]

Gramm got us this time.. We had too many mistakes and his guys didn't let a single miscue go unpunished until late when shit got weird. The final should have probably been 28-14 instead of 28-21.. But our guys couldn't shake the jitters all game long, dropped a ton of interception opportunities, and dropped some key passes late that sunk us totally. I was busy looking at question marks over my receivers all game and making my throws a split second late, directly leading to two major interceptions. If we play mistake free, we probably win. Unfortunately that was not the case.

From that first 3rd down conversion, it felt like we were on our heels. GG Gramm. We'll get you next time.

[Julio Riddols]

My week 15 game was a wild one, but we won pretty easily. I doubt I will be lucky enough to find myself in the hunt for a top 2 ranking, but this will go down as the best season we've had thus far.

[Kodos]

You might see some teams above you get knocked out in their conference championship games.

[Julio Riddols]

I really hope so, I need a rematch. I played terribly and I have that bad taste in my mouth just sitting on the back of my tongue like something thick and black and acidic.. I can't erase it until I drink from that cleansing cup of victory again.

[Kodos]

You and Gramm both have recruiting points left. Done recruiting for Week 15, or no?

[Grammaticus]

Im done and ready to advance. Frederick was crazy on the turnover game. One circus act leaping one hand pick and two fumble recoveries. But 4 more fumble recovers that got reversed on challenge.

[Julio Riddols]

Done for sure.

[Kodos]

Julio did not get the help he needed, so he stayed at #6 and will be in the Sugar Bowl. #2 Outer Banks is in the championship game. #8 Rochester heads to the Russell Athletic Bowl.

#2 Outer Banks (12-0) at #1 LSU (13-0)

[Julio Riddols]

I'll get my bowl game in tonight at some point.

[Kodos]

Congratulations to Outer Banks, our 2017 Champs!


Outer Banks 59, LSU 10
Orlando 42, Texas 28
Rochester 42, South Carolina 35
Frederick 21, Pitt 14
San Diego State 28, North Plainfield 21
Southern Miss 31, Tucker 27

[Kodos]

Julio has been offered the Chitterlings head coaching job. I don't have the option to make him turn it down, so Julio will have to do that himself.

[Grammaticus]

Julio, are you able to get past this step?

[Kodos]

I can try to do it in game tonight. No idea if I can, but will try.

[Kodos]

It looks like I can only force him to take the Chesapeake job. Something must be up. Julio is usually very active. Hasn't been on the forum in days.

[Julio Riddols]

I'll get this settled in a few, bear with me. Apologies, I've been essentially dead to the world Mon-Thur for a couple weeks now.

[Kodos]

It looks like Macro's alter ego (Dennis Thomas) is the new coach in Fairbanks. And we all have new OCs.

Orlando
Tommy McMillan - P - Fr wants to transfer. Julio can try to convince him to stay.

Outer Banks
Nate Johnson - RE - Fr wants to transfer. Under our rules, Gramm has to let him go.

[Grammaticus]

Outer Banks is ready to advance. Nate is gone to party in Hawaii.

I got stuck with Dan Mullin as my OC. Can I fire him

[Julio Riddols]

Getting mine handled now.

[Kodos]

Outer Banks had a 67-rated FR LOLB transfer in from Missouri.

[Kodos]

We're on to recruiting.

[Julio Riddols]

Orlando done.

[Kodos]

Outer Banks wins the Chase Taylor sweepstakes.

[Kodos]

We each have at least one 3-star guys that committed.Those guys will have to be cut.

[Kodos]

Can't access the website right now to move things along.

[Grammaticus]

Ah, Chase bit on all the hookers, cash and cars we threw at him!

[Kodos]

Mandatory cuts
Rochester - RB Bobby King, CB Guy Jackson, C Shaun Newberry
Outer Banks - DE Derek Adams
Orlando - MLB Micah Chandler

[Kodos]

We're on to Position Changes.

[Kodos]

Rochester is done. Our new OC rocks the house. He's almost maxed out.

[Julio Riddols]

Oh, one of my favorite stages. I'll get on it.

[Julio Riddols]

I think I got my position changes done last night, but not sure they went through.. I was backing out when my xbox shut down on me because the brick overheated..

I'll try and redo it here in a few.

EDIT: got it done online.

[Kodos]

Training results are up if you want to check them out. Will advance sometime this afternoon or tonight.

[Julio Riddols]

Huh.. Guess position changes didn't take. Oh well.. The movers were gonna redshirt anyway.

Our offensive line signees from 5 years ago have all matured together into a strong unit and it'll be fun to use their prowess to our advantage as we try to run the table this year to make up for our failures last season. Gonna be a lot of passing for us this year with our RB situation not being the best.

[Kodos]

Sorry your changes didn't take. I usually warn against trusting the website, but figured everyone knows the drill by now.
