Hello all. Figured I'd introduce myself since I've been a member since sometime late in '04. 
I origionally found a link to this site long ago. I think I was probably looking for rosters or sliders. It's a great site. By the time I found it though, I was getting burned out on xbox, mainly the sports games. They weren't fixing the stuff that I wanted fixed in the hoops games, and I was having trouble getting into madden and NFL 2k. I did play in a few leagues for NFL 2k5 though and it was a lot of fun. I loved the private web page for your league, with the stat tracking and user submitted stories and all that.
I'm not a fan of baseball or hockey. Soccer is cool, but it's so hard to get into MLS or European Club because of lack of coverage here in the states. I'm also not a fan of watching golf, tennis, etc... But I'll play just about any sports game, 'cept hockey, don't get it.
I'm not a 2k or an EA fanboy. Whichever game I like the most that year, I play the most. I was sad that 2k lost the NFL license, but I'm not one of those people who's perception of the game is skewed because of it. Both madden and 2k had their share of pros and cons and the best game would've come from combining the two games, taking the good and elimating the bad from both. I usually give the nod in basketball to 2k, especially the last 4 years.
/whisper I also liked Madden 360 this year, don't tell anyone.
I also don't play online a lot anymore. Most of the friends I made in beta and the first year of live are all gone and It's really hard to fine non-morons to play with.
But the sports gaming front looking a lot better with the upcoming wave of games. Looking forward to NCAA football, Madden, TW07, and several others. MLB doesn't interest me as I'm not a baseball fan, but if they release EA releases a version of NCAA on the 360 I'd be all over it. So, I'd like to get involved with some good games, possibly some leagues. I've have a sour taste from most of the leagues I've joined in the past, but seeing how they're running the NCAA 07 league, I'm hoping one day to get into one like that.
I don't post a whole lot. I usually research before asking questions, which hurts my post count, and I don't start posting in threads that have turned into arguments (seems to happen a lot on this site). But I do try and help when someone has a legitimate question that hasn't been answered 20 times in other posts and threads. I'm also not much of a spammer.
But, I'm hoping to get more involved. I'd say about 70% of my gaming is sports. I'd like to get into some leagues that are led by people who know what they're doing and are strict. If I miss the boat the first few times though, I'd still like to play some games.
If you read this far then cool! Hope to get in some football with you all this fall. See ya around.
