This is how you know you are in the dark days before training camp starts.

Actually I thought it was pretty funny that players care about their Madden ratings. Apparently they do .......

why wouldnt they?

 

its in their competitive blood. yeah there are players who dont gaf, but if you are slower on madden than someone you know you are faster than in real life, yeah that will irk them

 

its certainly not surprising like you are insinuating.  

 

you are showing your age.

I am showing my age or more accurately the fact I grew up without being addicted to video games or even a cellphone. I also understand that many players are fond of social media and are gaming enthusiasts. But it is a game which doesn't necessarily mirror reality and hardly impacts how they do their job or what they get paid.  I get it, but also find it humorous that players care enough to actually comment on it. Then again what don't people comment on these days.  If I see one more plate of food showing what people had for dinner ............

I'm 31.

NFL players complaining about their Madden scores is childish and stupid.

Too stereotypical.  I work with families and kids everyday. I am a scout leader for the past 30 years.  I probably am more involved in youth activities than most on here. The fact I see little value in videogames and think it is funny that folks are overly engaged in telling everything they think or feel to the world in social media hardly makes me an old curmudgeon.  Just like I don't think that all millenials  are self-centered, shallow, selfish money grubbers who expect to be handed everything who all want to make a living playing video games.

Lighten up Francis.

      Monroe Freeling’s lovely GF

      With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.

      Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.

      Jeremy Fowler: Panthers draft day intel

      Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
