The worst part? Dan and Peter didn't even mention that I just BLOCKED a DAMN PAT!!!!! I want some Dap, fellas!

Me too! I used JAson Webster on the Falcons who was on the far right of the screen. I mean, the BOX SCORE didn't even indicate a blocked PAT! Oh well...

Yeaa i think that blocking a kick is actually easier than a punt.
I have only blocked a punt once, with Erik Coleman, Jets rookie S(left side rush), but i have blocked 3 FGs. 2 of them were PATs, both with Rashad Bauman, and i blocked a FG with Ray Mickens. Once, with the PAT, i blocked it and a lineman caught it and went 40 yards. I was laughing cause he was fat and it is funny to see him run, but i was sad cause i could have gotten a TD if a faster person caught it, and then i couldve gotten it back for maybe another score and won the game, but that didnt happen.
I used to block kicks in Madden on PSX when they had to kick it low because they were far out, and i just controlled a lineman and lept up and sometimes i would nick it for the block.

I was playing my freind online the other day, I blocked his FG attempt, caught it mid-air and ran it back 76 yds for a TD! That's the first time I've ever seen that in a football videogame before! Needless to say, my freind was pissed, hah!
