It was similar with soccer:
Microprose Soccer (C64) => Sensible Soccer (Amiga) => FIFA Soccer (SNES)

When I played my first FIFA game in 1994 or so I was completely blown away.

Well, the one benefit of the Foreskins and Steelers playing each other is it's both teams in the same game, so the league can't fuck us over with regional coverage wasting two games.

Get the Patriotards and Rams as the other matchup at 1pm, and the New Yauk Football Giants and Cowpokes at 4pm.

If his heel landed in bounds, then his toe came down out it would not be a catch.

I agree, but new league rules stipulate that the New York Football Giants must always win in the new Cowboys Stadium.

I hate the Gronk, but he did have the best TD celebration of the day with the "changing of the guard" celebration.

A worthy goal.  I support your efforts and hope for the best.  I, alas, have had my underdog winstreak ended by the league's top team.  Not a good week to have your starting qb, top two rb's, and one of your top 3 wr's have a bye week. :pinch:  In happier news, the Raiders and the Browns won!  Truly a sign of impending doom from the Frankenstorm.

Too blurry to say it's touching the line.  And the palm of his glove is so dark it's hard to say conclusively that part of it is not touching the ground.

But I'll admit I tend to give the benefit of the doubt to the offense.

But you aren't considered down if your hand touches the ground. So, does it even matter or count when it comes to determining a catch? It does matter for being considered in or out of bounds though, which is why it appears to be the correct call. Where is Berkut when you need him to chime in?

Regardless, Bryant needed to man up, wrap both arms around the ball to make sure of the catch, and let his fat ass hit the ground first for the touchdown, end of story. Hines Ward wouldn't have tried to break his fall because he understood what it took to win and be a great receiver. Hell, Bryant almost got his team a penalty for too many men in the huddle which I believe would have caused a 10 second run off ending the game. He is all about himself all the time.

Easy for you to say.  That is a really tough instinct to fight against, especially if in that split second you misjudge your position and think your hand will be squarely in-bounds.  Criticizing a receiver for something like this is pretty ridiculous.

I have a hard time criticizing the receiver for being 1-2 cm out of bounds with the tips of his fingers.  Mind you, it's weird how this stuff always happens to Bryant.  Between this and the two-point conversion vs Baltimore, maybe Romo should think about looking for Miles Austin when the game is on the line.

The Steelers are the first franchise to register 400 regular-season wins since the AFL-NFL merger. The next closest team to the 400-win milestone is the Miami Dolphins with 389 wins.

Meaning we would have had it without those couple shit seasons. :P

The Dolphins have been terrible for a while, I'm surprised they're in second place, but that's a testament to their dominance in the 70s and later, Dan Marino.

We are 92-100 during the "bad times" (assuming this year is a real turnaround, which I think it is).  That is hardly "terrible".  There have been a couple really bad seasons (1-15, 4-12) and a couple bad seasons (2x 6-10), but for the rest of the period we have been between 7-9 and 11-5.

Yeah, let's remember that they did make the playoffs at one point.  Won the division and everything, and then got obliterated by Baltimore in the playoffs.

Assuming no stat corrections, I won my money league game by 0.7 points.

Alex Smith and the Niners defense propelled me to a come-from-behind victory.  :)

I made the mistake of reading Bleacher Report. Most overrated player on the ravens? Ray Lewis

The texans? Schaub

What a load of timmay crap.
