    I know you did, buddy. But then you denounced the league and someone else claimed them.

    I tried to reason with him but it wouldn't be justifiable to force him out.

    There are only 4 teams left. Two of them in bruns & victors division. Would be a great division to join

    Oh, trust me, I had a lengthy discussion with Mr UnicornDickslam on Bankz' behalf. Presented him with the facts and he's rejected it out of principle which is ridiculous.

    There are three scenarios:
    1. Dickslam changes teams and everything is gravy.
    2. I force dickslam to change teams. Looks bad, feels bad.
    3. Dickslam remains bears, bankz doesn't join out of principle.

    You can do what you want, but... The game is pretty cool. I have no idea what I'm doing though. I haven't been on xbone in a week and new Madden drops in 3 weeks so not sure how much I'll even be on

    He has no legit claim to the team.

    His only claim is I rejected a league run by Nelson. But this league isn't run by Nelson. It's run by you.

    He rejects the facts because he's still bitter over me looking forward to his death. ( I still do UnicornDickslam hopefully its sooner vs later)

    I mean the guy went off the edge and started googling my restaurant reviews. In a attempt to anger me. Lets not forget him trying to portray me as a racist.

    He went and deleted my name off the spreadsheet to annoy and piss me off and he won't change teams because he doesn't want me to be part of the league.

    As for the league...

    I would love to be a part of it.

    I'm active and for the most part get along with the vast majority of the members

    But at this point were heading to option 3 because it seems like you don't want to force dickslam to do the right thing.

    With all that said I got nothing but love for you either way.

    I don't believe that he deleted you off the spreadsheet. I looked at the edits. For whatever reason, you were removed on June 14th and he didn't claim them until over a month later

    This would be a good time to advertise - hey everyone if you're getting Madden, or on the fence about getting madden this year - get it and join our super awesome dynasty league. There are 3* spots open right now.

    It's a lot of fun, the groupme is active - and we play 3 games a week normally.

    *3 spots is assuming Bankz joins up at some point.

    for those who have it...

    Is EA Access worth the 26.00 a year?

    I see it gives you access to old games for free.

    Are those digital downloads?

    It absolutely is at times

    I think it's worth it- you get Madden a little early, you get 10% off of games digital download... but if you buy the disc copy you can then sell it once the game goes in the vault. You also get all vault games for free.

    yes

    Yes you can get early access to the games IIRC a week or two.

    Not that I know about the discount. I know some people buy the game then sell it once it hits the vault.

    EA access is absolutely worth it. Especially if there are EA games you don't plan to game share. Get the disk version, play the game, wait for it to go into the vault, download it, sell the disk back to EA for roughly $30.

    Access is worth every penny to me. I don't need the games day 1 so it's nice to play the 10 hour trial then revisit when they hit the vault.

    For those interested in the Xbox One S, since it's actually out today multiple tech sites have been running tests on it and since the console received a slight performance boost to allow for 4k video and HDR gaming that boost is still available for non-HDR games and it is being put to use. Some titles have seen framerate increases of 9 frames per second. Others that have frame rate caps have less screen tearing or more consistently stay right at the cap.

    Some sites are actually questioning why MS didn't sell this more because it's somewhere around a 7% performance boost and while that may seem like an insignificant number it is real and noticeable on certain titles.

    Along this same lines GameStop is offering $150 credit for the original Xbox one toward the S. May actually do it in a couple weeks of it's still available because I plan on buying a 4K tv this year.

  45. Everything about this post is wonderful

    -I did not delete you from the spreadsheet
    -You lost your claim on any team when you stated you were not playing, just as Shocker did. Nelson is still running the league, as is 47. It's a shared commish league
    -I'm not bitter about anything
    -I don't give a damn if you are in the league or not
    -I had no idea you were the Bears, I don't care enough about you to pay attention to that

    I didn't reject it out of principle, I rejected it because he wasn't on the spreadsheet, stated he wasn't playing in M17 and as a result lost his spot just as Shocker did like I said above and in our chat, and just because you change your mind doesn't retract that statement. You quit, you lose your spot. That applies for everyone so let's not selectively enforce the rules here. It's not my fault he was removed, someone did it. It wasn't me. I am staying as the Bears, there isn't dick left to choose and I will enjoy winning my division on a yearly basis.

    For $150 it's worth thinking about keeping the original xbox as a media hub... especially if you are a cord cutter. I'd rather have an old xbox than another fire tv for $100.

    -Calvera runs the league.
    -Nelson is on a sub committee.
    -My statement has nothing to do with the Calvera league
    -I never took my name off the Bears

    So you took at team claimed. You should find a new team. The end.

  48. It's the same league, Bankz. You can repaint a car, but it's still the same car. I'm not giving up he Bears. You weren't on the list and you said you weren't playing. It's as simple as that.

    he's a bears fan. you aren't. stop being a cunt and let him be his favorite team. Seems like you are holding on to the bears to either be a douche to bankz or because you think you have an advantage against the other gms and want a cake division. give bankz his favorite team and be done with it.
