The-Hogs.net - Washington Football Discussion, Redskins to Commanders Era

Unfortunately, most former NFL players don't receive HOF election ballots. Maybe if someone would get Peter King laid (No Small Task), Art Monk would get rightfully elected to the Hall.

Actually King changed his mind a couple of years ago and now thinks Art should be enshrined. It is the others ...

Eh, what happened to building a team instead of buying it? We have TWO linebackers picked up this year that MIGHT have 2-3 years left. MIGHT. Call me crazy, but buying a team hasn't worked yet, and I don't think it will work this year either.

To be quite honest our LB corps is about the last ...

Had 2K not released a game, we'd still have a bunch of issues with this game. I had a quote of an EA boss basically displaying how much they hate 2K.

As evidenced by their sneaky lawyer ploy. Worst decision by the NFL ever...really stunted the growth of the football games. Madden is actually ...

Competition is healthy! Plus 2ks running game is outstanding. Bout time Madden tried to catch up.

From what I've been reading it seems like EA has addressed alot of what has been driving me nuts with their recent installments. I will have to check Madden 08 out thoroughly...after the fumble patch ...

Just remind him about TO. And then walk away laughing uncontrollably.

I hate to say it but I am very skeptical of EA's effort...the last few versions for the 360 have been utter junk. The fumble glitch seems to be a major mistake. I guess I will at least rent it...but doubt if I will buy it again this year.

All Pro NFL 2k8 seems like a breath of fresh air to me ...

Oh I dunno...for some reason I had the old bay in my hand and was heatin up the steamer...mmmmm giant lobster....

Agreed. Excuses should not be so plentiful for such a talented and experienced right tackle. Jansen is better than that. I personally think that he will shake off the rust and bounce back into form.

Well, I am not a big Pinkston fan by any stretch of the imagination...but maybe...just maybe, he is hungry after facing life without football? Hopefully he can provide some relief to Moss...maybe...please, God, please!

YES! You may absolutely adopt Liverpool. I have been a fan since the late 80s. Great team to root for with a ton of tradition. Gerrard, in my opinion, is one of the classiest players around and arguably the most complete midfielder in the EPL. And yes, You'll never walk alone!

FSC carries a ...

Also of note the primary delegate responsible for the new laws, Dave Albo, happens to be a lawyer. Guess what laws his office specialize in...traffic laws. Conflict of interest anyone?

everyone needs to remember that EA has to rate like 1800 players so they cant get everything right, but im excited about the lb's and dbs

Yeah but they are THE NFL licensed football simulation. I believe they owe it to the consumer to get it right. But they are to busy sniffing the money to ...

I agree...surprisingly, because I don't put much stock in preseason. But to lose all of the games is just plain bad for morale.

I would have to say Rogers should start unless Smoot has knocked him off by having an exceptional, outstanding camp.

Rogers should be given the chance to prove that last year was just a sophomore adjusting to the main role. (Since Springs was injured) I think this year may be his breakout season ...

I don't think it would be a good idea. The guy is past his prime. Plus, Carter is gonna be a beast this year.

Well if Peter King changed his mind on Monk perhaps there is hope for the other voters.

Anyone who likes GTA and owns a 360 should check out Saints Row. Its a fun GTA clone that improves on the mechanincs of GTA...I am actually hoping GTA copies some of the mechanics...or even improves upon them.

BTW last thougts on 360 and PS3 war...buy both.

No, the core does NOT come with a HDD. That is why MS doesn't (as of now) allow developers to make games that only work on the systems equipped with a HDD. That was retarded on MS's part, especially since the original Xbox came with a HDD.

Maybe you need to play your 360 more if you haven't ...

I'd like to see that in a game!

I agree with a lot of your points but MS dropped the ball with using DVD. They also hurt us as gamer by making the tard pack, oops I meant core pack. HDD's should be a standard so that developers can use the HDD for texture caching. Try to run Oblivion on a core system and not want to throw it out ...

Video Game consoles are really for Video games, though. From that standpoint one can argue that the 360 wins. Better price, more games, comparable graphics. For 300 less if you buy the Core system. And the Blu-Ray is nice but it won't upconvert. Sony online is a joke compared to Live.

Sony also ...

Yeah, I have to agree with patjam, Beast is better.

Eh. PS3 should be alot better for the extra dough it costs. I think that the X360 is a better deal right now. Anyway they are both cool systems.

I haven't bought Madden in 2 years because I have been so disappointed with their effort on the new consoles. Madden 06 was a joke on the 360 and 07 ...

So he's an idiot. So what? He blocks and catches 1st downs. For the right price he would only help the Skins. We already have a #1 receiver and a proven slot. We are missing a bona-fide possession receiver. B.Lloyd has not yet proven he can be that #2. Keyshawn caught 70 balls last year and is known ...

Williams uses it as a scheme sometimes but never as a base. Skins need to stick with the 4-3. Jazz is right, we don't have the personnel.
