    I'm so pissed he pulled out mysterio's mask. I hate mysterio so much and really wanted Kane to get the mask back. The reveal was complete and utter shit.

    Played this tonight and WOW. It's a HUGE step up from last year's madden. They pretty much fixed all the problems i had with last year's madden. The only thing that took some getting used to is the new camera.

    American Football Advice

    I typed this up for someone who said that football was dumb and doesn't require thinking. It explains most positions on the field. Every position plays different roles. Lets take defense for example. D line trys to collapse the lanes on runs or sack the QB on passes. CB's are there to make sure the O doesnt complete pass plays. The linebackers can either drop into coverage or blitz the QB and get a sack or they can take out the RB for a loss. The safeties can either protect the long ball or they can drop into coverage or they can blitz the QB. All of these things depend on what the offense runs and the D players need to recognize the play and what they need to do to stop the offense. Now lets take a look at the offense. The QB is the leader. He gets plays in from the sidelines and either runs them or takes a look at the D and calls an audible for a more suitable play that will gain yardage. He can either pass the ball, hand it off for a run, or run it himself. All depending on the play and what he sees downfield. Now for the RB's. Their job is to either run the ball, block for the QB, receive a toss, or go out for a pass. Also depending on the play. Now for the O line. Their job is to protect the QB 1st and foremost. On pass plays they drop back and protect the QB. On run plays, they push forward and create lanes for the RB's to run through. These guys are VERY important to the offense. Just ask David Carr. Now onto the tight ends. They are usually big guys who take punishment over the middle. They can either block for the RB's or go out for passes. If they go out for passes, they usually run up the middle for a pass over the middle and take the hit for a gain. Now onto the receivers. These are the guys that catch the passes from the QB. There are MANY different routes that these guys run in order to maximize the effectiveness of a pass play. Their job is to get yardage hopefully for 1st downs and the best option of a TD. They need to be fast, tough (for those passes over the middle) and smart to avoid hits and find seams to reach the endzone. Now on to special teams. Their job is to either kick a FG, kick a kickoff, return a kickoff, punt, and return a punt. If the offense is unable to get a 1st down after 3 downs, they usually punt. A kicking team comes onto the field and punts the ball as far as they can to pin the other team as close to their own endzone as possible. Punters like to get it as close to the goal line as possible. Sometimes they "coffin corner" kick it and kick it out of bounds as close to the goal line as possible. Sometimes, if the D isnt paying attention, the offensive special teams is able to either run the ball or pass for a 1st down. The return team receives the punt and trys to take it as far downfield as possible. The punt return teams trys to create seams for the returner to run through in order to get as far as possible. For kick returns, they do much of the same. They create gaps for the returner to run through. As for the kicking team, the kicker kicks it as far as possible without kicking it out of bounds. If he kicks it out of bounds, they automatically take it up to the 40 yard line. The guys that are trying to stop the return man try to close gaps and get to the returner. The 1st guys downfield throw their bodies at the guys protecting the returner. These guys are called "Wedge Busters" because they try to disrupt the wedge that return teams may form. Watch closely because the hits that the wedge busters lay are some of the most violent you'll ever see.

    Also, how comfortable are you with hitting and getting hit. Taking your first solid shot may change your opinion with what position you want to play. The tryouts will definitely help you decide what position is best for you. I'd look into most of what you'll feel comfortable playing, but it seems like you might do well at linebacker.

    It really depends on how big the guys are that you're playing with.

    UFC 87 - Seek and Destroy

    Brock massacred Herring on the ground. He just beat and beat and beat on him at will, with Herring able to do almost nothing about it. If Kongo were to face Lesnar, then Kongo would get the uckfay beaten out of him. That said, and for all the positive things you can, and should, say about Brock. we're still waiting to see how he handles getting hit with heavy punches. And how about that first punch from Lesnar, and how fast he followed up on it? That's what suprised me the most. He looked like a fucking bull on PCP when he ran after him. That was an incredible/scary sight.
