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.

    • If there's a pattern I'm definitely picking up from Dan and company is a philosophy of making trades where we try not to sacrifice the number of draft picks we have by day's end. In other words, we're not giving up three picks for one, or giving up a future pick to make a pick today. And even if we give up something at the start, we make trades later to make up for that initial loss. Here's how it stacked up for 2026: How we started: 19, 51, 83, 119, 158, 159, 200 How we ended: 19, 49, 83, 129, 144, 151, 227 (no future picks sacrificed) Ultimately, we moved up two spots in the second to ensure we got someone we coveted, gave up a few spots for our fourth round pick, but then had better picks in the 5th (and got really good value out of them), and had a worse 7th rounder which isn't that big of a loss anyways.  At this point, we can question who they draft, but they're pretty good maneuvering across the draft board.
    • I just saw the funniest thing...or very disappointing, depending how you handle misery. A guy on YouTube did a 2027 'way too early' mock draft.  If I told you the simulator has the Panthers selecting in the top 10 , what would you say?  If I told you it was pick #8 and only two QBs were taken in the top 7, what would you say?  If I told you this dude had us taking a defensive player, what would you say?
    • It is due diligence at that point. Irresponsible not to take him.  Crossing my fingers on this one, he has everything you look for except experience.
