Basic terminology remains the same throughout football but no 2 coaches call the same play the same thing so it wouldn’t do you any good to try and memorize the madden play book.
Just learn the basics in term of terminology to hold an edge. Learn your position of choices’ terms. For example if you want to be a WR you should know some of the more basic routes (out route, fade, post, deep post, in route, curl etc…) but nothing about naming them something else. If anything your coach will have a different name for them but in regards to a play so just learn the basics if you want to get an edge.
Plays are meant to tell multiple people different things so you’ll just have to wait till then to get them before you can do anything. You don’t need to know what everyone else is doing unless you plan on playing QB then you have a lot more studying to do.
You can fix RROD on the 360 if you don’t mind fiddling around with the internals of the system.
Saved me a some cash (I think I spent maybe 10$ bucks to fix it and a couple of hours of time)…
Edit: It happened to mine (my first system bought it when it first came out) and it works like a charm after I fixed it.

I think people should mind their own business, unless someone infringes on their basic freedoms. And rather it is lighting up a joint, or injecting some heroine, that does not infringe upon your rights.
No, now you’re taking my words out of context.
What I did say is that I honestly do believe that if legalize a hard narcotic such as crystal meth (easily one the most, if not the most, addictive hard narcotic on earth) that you will see a significant (mass) outbreak of addiction and dependence on the drug assumed. Good sense or no sense it doesn’t matter; if the drug is legal people will try it good sense or no sense its just a fact of cause and effect.
I have no method of quantifying this merely a hunch. But then again you have no method of disproving this so then again you are merely assuming the opposite in this situation based on you’re on personal assumption.
I never said they’d go rampant with the drug but I do know (from personal experience) that it is highly addictive even when used in small amounts. You cannot control or stem the tide of addiction or dependence with mere regulation. You’re taking the drug(s) too lightly (which many people do). Legalizing any destructive drug and its usage is only going to encourage a greater number of people to use it.

If you legalize it and regulate it, there is a possibility it can be made safer for the user. The problems hard narcotics have are felt in alcohol abuse as well.In all seriousness, I would rather people not use drugs, I would also rather people not vote for socialist democrats as well but they still do it. It seems easier to regulate and control than it does to try and abolish it.
I agree with you too a point and I’ll admit I don’t know all the facts concerning ‘hard’ drugs and their addiction rate.
But just going by what little I do know I think it would be nigh near impossible to regulate the usage while hoping to avoid a mass outbreak of addiction and dependence on the drugs themselves all just to stem the rate of drug related criminal activity and boost the economy.
If anything regulation will be as effective as the government trying to regulate the consumption of alcohol (which is practically impossible) only with hard drugs possessing an exponentially greater addiction rate and a significantly greater health deterioration rate. The bad just simply outweigh the good in that scenario.

Those are the ones that cause the crime rates to go up, where all the money is being spent and why most drug offenders are in prison. Those are the ones we need to legalize to see a cost benefit, unfortunately, the cost to society on legalizing those will be great.Don’t care about pot or who uses it but when you call for the legalization of some of the most addictive and physically and mentally destructive narcotics on Earth to simply see a minor bump in economic stimulus is absurd compared to the long term health detriment you are going to impose on society and the population in general.
yea now im just waiting for the inevitable. pretty soon their lineman will be carrying shivs and start shanking people in the trenches, the CBs will be carrying guns to pop caps in people who beat them deep, and their Qbs will be putting c4 in the football before the game to blow em if someone intercepts that ball..

Herman Edwards’ Coors Light Commercial – Herman Edwards – Deadspin
Check it…for hilarity
Edit: ANd its not the commercial FYI
Ha ha ha!!!
Do we even need to disucss this? If DT isn’t an option then we all know who the next best player that’s ever (EVER) worn a Chiefs Jersey is the one and only…
Kendall Gammon!
ITS A SNAP!
Edit: But in all seriousness…right now for this team…can’t think of a better RT then John Tait in Chiefs history. Remember Willie and Tait bookends? Yea

Thigpen put up numbers that were just as good as Cassel’s and he did so with a lot less talent around him. I think the QB position should be up for grabs. If Thigpen or Croyle outplay Cassel than they deserve to be given the opportunity for the starting job.He also ran a gimmick offense geared especially for him, threw to the greatest Tight End of all time, and had a big target at WR in Dwayne Bowe.
Thigpen is an intriguing player with a very unique play style but, like I’ve said in a previous thread, if the Chiefs wanted a QB like Thigpen to run an offense then they should’ve gone for Vick who does everything Thig. does on the field only much better.
I like Thigpen as an athlete, don’t get me wrong, but I don’t want him playing QB for any sort of longevity. He’s a trick player. A gadget guy at best.
