Those sitting there saying they wouldnt care about their madden ratings

 

 

what if your manhood was measured and posted on a very popular platform, and you were shorter than you really are? youd be irked! 

 

there are couch potato belly button lint eaters in here claiming its childish when they have no concept of being a professional athlete where competition is prime.

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 ............

 

Last line really tickled me and it happens to be so true .

So only professional athletes are competitive? I have seen folks get into a rumble over Bingo. Give me a break.

You are competitive when it comes to getting the last word in a message thread and you aren't alone.  Many of us played sports at the highest level we could and rarely played without keeping score or busting a nut or gut trying to win. Still Madden is a video game it isn't real life. And complaining about wanting a speed rating of 97 because it is only a 95 is pretty petty. No one is talking about Johnsom length.

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.

Trade the video games for real estate or stocks and you sound like a millennial describing Boomers.

Video games are the only medium that's gotten better with time.  You won't find any modern gamer saying, "Man, I can't wait till they re-release Pong." Love them or hate them, they aren't going away.  I personally loathe the Madden franchise and haven't bought it in 10 years or so.  That said I'm mid-30s playing RDR2 on my giant 4k flat screen.  

Sure beats watching Friends and Seinfeld re-runs.

I have no problem with video games in moderation or Madden as a game. It isn't the video games at all, it is how folks act like video games mimic real life or that for example a speed rating mimics real football and if it isn't accurate, it is a big deal.  I don't play video games much but that is just because I didn't grow up playing them. I just thought is was funny he tweeted after the race that he wanted a bump up in rating and that players followed that stuff. It isn't surprising, just funny to me.

    • Dave in a presser gassed up Anthony Tyus III and dying to see him on the field.  I mean 3 is all that needed right, and Dan loves etienne. He's one year filling in his body. If brooks is back, toss in chubba, thats 3. 
    • After seeing hits in the last two UDFA pools, I do not in this group sorta of a let down after I gassed myself up.  Not like I know of their games, but just expected more. The duke DT only has to beat out hunte (2025 UDFA) or Ray (DL coach's kid) or even Cam Jackson mid 2025 5th.  I thought they would bring in more edges, IOL, TEs, etc...
    • My 2 favorite picks, since you didn't ask? 3. Brazzell II.  A 1000 yard WR with 4.37 speed and checks all the boxes for a Z Wide Receiver.  IN THE THIRD ROUND!!! 5.  Sam Hecht.  I think he will take over as the starter at some point this season and never look back.  IN THE FIFTH ROUND. Runner Up:  2. Hunter:  We were targeting a DT early in this draft because we did very little to replace Robinson in free agency.  Hunter was our guy and he will start. In addition to that, you got a starting tackle that should man one side of the new OL we will build for Bryce's second contract. A starting WR, offensive lineman, defensive lineman and possible Offensive tackle (at some point during this year from this draft will start.  UNREAL. In addition, I don't doubt that Wheatley (5th round) takes the FS job by next year and Lee III is Jackson's replacement in 2027.   Finally, even Kuwatch should be a special teams demon and LB depth.   Last year's draft was so good it was ugly.  This one will turn out to be uglier.  No offense Basbear--this ain't about you.
