Hehehehe... these aren't new, but it's the first time I'd read them... enjoy:

Quote:
Another thing I noticed tonight, I threw an interception and the intercepting team fumbled and recovered the ball. When their offense took the field they started with 3rd down and 44 yards to go LOL.
LOL?!? LOL?!? Jeepers!

And here's another gem. Let's see if the poster found it as funny as the previous one:

Quote:
I just ran my first league game using the default U.S. league, Chicago (me) vs Milwaukee...first bugs I see are only 1 timeout per team per half given, but the biggy was this...I was ahead 37-17 with 4 minutes to play. Milwaukee scored a TD to make it 37-23 and the PC elected to go for 2 pts....they were successful but hey! they were awarded another 6 pts! So they elected to go for 2 again, which they converted. So all of a sudden its 37-31~~!!!
Where's the LOL on this one?!?

Is this is the same guy who wanted to set up a mobile gaming center that would fit 40 cats and dogs and run on water? Or is that someone else?

And if it is the same guy, is that what's going to start on October 29th?

And, if so, where do I sign up? That place sounds awesome!

I'm thinking this dood is jb's long lost cousin in looking at posts made in threads like this one hxxp://www.matrixgames.com/forums/tm.asp?m=1266243&mpage=1&key=&#1266548

I also can't help but wonder if that profile pic is from high school graduation. On second thought, I'm thinking dood may have borrowed that cap from someone else....This guy is a piece of work.

Oh man, I didn't know he had a profile. It didn't exist before, but his profile description is both confusing and hilarious.

Shouldn't his league be called 'Ass White Football Association'?

I also think it's hillarious that he wants to consider charging people to watch a Maximum Football tournament, never mind participate in one. I'm lovin' that business plan.

I headed over to the MaxFB forums to see how things are going. Daivd produced yet another gem.

Someone posted wondering how the stats and realism are coming along. I think DW's quote says it all about MaxFB:

You and me both. Unfortunately, though, I don't think he may buy Maximum Football based on what he said here:
http://www.matrixgames.com/forums/tm.asp?m=1274688

But I am still curious to find out what he plans to do and with what football program.

Two birds, one stone...

Maximum Football, Daivd Winter doth sent
On trashing text simmers he was hell bent
The delays were quite sizeable
The game very customizable
The one thing he got right? The beer tent!

To be fair, I bought it on Ebay for $5.

I still need to run the play-offs. I never got around to "customizing" a play-off set up to make sure that I got to the Maximum Bowl.

ROFL. They are trying to make the insinuation over there that the FOF 2007 release was as much a disaster as the Max FB release. Karma my ass. We'll have a patch to fix the few problems that exist in FOF 2007 within the next few days. Nine months later, and they are still slogging through beta patches. Yep, I see the similarities.

That's absolutely hilarious. I guess the word "severity" is not in any of their vocabularies. As if any bug in FOF would come anywhere near as severe as a lot of the bugs in M-F.

Because a bug that lets linemen be the League's Fastest Player = frame rate controls completion percentage.

Which demonstrates a level of humility and common sense that plesantly suprises me.

We all make mistakes. The question really then becomes how we learn from them. I like what Daivd seemed to learn here.
