I bought it once, like 3 years ago and had fun with it, but havent looked into it again. Everyone always has it in the top 3 sports games of all time. I should prob look it back up....

For some reason soccer doesnt come to mind with that word.

You follow the galaxy Chief???

Let me put it to you this way...have you heard of The LA Riot Squad in the past couple days?

Heh....yeah, I've avoided CM just for that same reason. I know if I play it, I'll be hooked on the game, so I just try to stay away. I have enough to deal with playing the games of sports I actually like and care about. Heck, I play enough FBCB and I HATE real college basketball.

I play it. It's hard. It's the type of game that sits in the background for days a time and gets a little push ahead every so often.

I like college basketball during tourney time (and obviously have FBCB since we're in the same league together). I don't care for pro basketball, but I actually own DDS:PB. Only played it a few times though.. it kept crashing on me so I gave up mercifully.

Montreal_GM · 07-21-2009, 10:37 PM

Congrats Teach. Now the pressure is on to keep a supporting cast around that golden arm.

I was playing FM, actually, while getting my ass handed to me here. I also lost in the game. Sonofa...

Tasan · 07-21-2009, 10:38 PM

That's pretty much what I expected, considering the posts we get during the season threads. The only reason muns isn't first is because of his break he had to take. I know I've more than doubled my overall board posts because of this sub-forum.

Alan T · 07-21-2009, 10:38 PM

Ok, the new file is up and HTML is uploading currently.

We have Wednesday off, during which time I'll be helping pack the moving vans for one of our franchises to head to the far east!

Thursday morning 7am ET we will have the Amateur draft. See you then!

The LA Riot Squad is the supporter's crew that has gotten a lot of play the past couple days because they were the ones getting on Beck's back, and had the fan that came down to fight Becks and was hauled away by security.

No, not a member of that crew. They're assholes.

Their head guy admits the best Galaxy supporters' group is the ABC--Angel City Brigade. That's where I'm at.

Hmm well.. this subforum is only 2nd for me in where my total posts are....

Tasan · 07-21-2009, 10:39 PM

Oh and thanks Alan, for pulling up that post. Have I told you how great a commish you are in the last 24 hours? You're awesome, dude.

I had the same problem even though they say there isnt anything wrong and the game doesnt crash

Which is why I dont play their pro or college game. Their college game was less crashy, but when it did, it killed me so I just quit playin it.

I'm only a great commish in 24 hour stretches. Now for the next 36 hours I get to be a lousy one that forgets to process ekcut/gstelmack's FOOL-X trade in the morning while I accidentally give Montreal's new team jerseys a pink color!

"Accidentally" give it fuchsia stripes as well.

Well I'm more than willing to work through crashes and go out of my way to try to troubleshoot or help troubleshoot them. (Lord knows how many bugs I've had to figure my way through in OOTP). With the DDS series, they seemed very interested in helping me, they just wern't able to reproduce alot of them because the crashes would randomly occur all throughout the month at different times. And re-simming would never have them occur in the same place twice. So after a few weeks, I finally gave up and shelved it.

Thanks again Alan for all the write ups!!!

Alan T · 07-21-2009, 10:43 PM

And some day in about 4-5 weeks someone will do a search of the forums for DDS:CB looking for pointers or helps or whatever and be really puzzled when they get sent to a FOOL playoff thread.

Tasan · 07-21-2009, 10:44 PM

lol

Thanks for the one last laugh of the night Alan!

If you have something classic but cool in mind I'm fine with it.

Thanks Alan.

Looking forward to next season!

ekcut · 07-21-2009, 10:58 PM

I actually tried to snatch him up in our trade talks this year too. Id be interested to hear what he thinks about him.

Jean St. Cyr's playoff line:
