Charlie Murphaaay Posted August 15, 2002 Share Posted August 15, 2002 4th Quarter - 4:05 left to play: Last night i'm down 10 (7-17) to the Cards in the first game of the season. Champ Bailey picks off a pass sidearmed to Boston on a Fade pattern, takes it all the way back 79 yards for the TD. Score (14-17)...i'm thinking now I have a chance......uhhh...well maybe.... 4th Quarter - 1:40 left to play: Frank Sanders appears to make a catch in front of the 1st down marker. Only to be stripped by Fred Smoot for an incompletion. Gramatica makes a 54 yard FG. I'm in dire straights down six with nearly a minute left. Score (14-20).....i'm thinking..damn...now I really NEED a TD in a hurry...oh well...let's go fellas..... 4th Quarter - 1:26 left to play: I place Champ onto my kick return team. Luckily the Cards kicker kicks it to him at the 6 yard line, I start right, then turn left to find a slim hole I slip through, shrug off a tackle and outrace Martay Jenkins down the sideline to the endzone the game winning TD!!!!!! Score (21-20)....i'm thinking...yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah baby, hell yeah........Champ Bailey is all of it baby....WHAT!!!! I know all of my fellow Maddenites have some funny/interesting stories good and bad to share. Well share it here. Even football sims can bring the emotion, tension, stress and relief out of us!!

Fred Smoot Fan Posted August 16, 2002 Share Posted August 16, 2002 While I was spanking the Panthers LaVar came on a blitz but couldn't tackle Weinke who after getting away threw a 20 yard completion to Patrick Jeffers against Smoot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mad Mike Posted August 17, 2002 Share Posted August 17, 2002 Last night: Skins vs Pats / Me against a buddy. After a first half in which nothing went right, including game ending injuries to Mathiews and Armstead, 5 int's and a fumble left me down 14 to 42 my budy asked me several times over the halftime break if I wouldn't rather start a new game. I declined saying I would rather go down fighting than punk out. 2nd half: After another ceremonial shot of Quervo I took my first drive right down the field with a steady mix of pass n run for a TD. I stuffed his next posesion and he INTd my next for a TD. But I stayed calm and stuck to my game plan. He never scored again. Arrington took Brady out of the game and I kept mixing in the run, worked the clock and took the lead 50 to 49 with 1:30 left in the game. I held him off one last time and made one last first down on a 3rd and 14 with no time outs remaining:pint: Moral of the story. Never give up, never give in.:high: One question. Is there ANY WAY to keep the computer from taking over the QB and making a stupid dump off pass when you are waiting for your chosen reciever to get open deep downfield? It's THE most fustrating thing and it can loose a tight game for you. :cuss: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
