I guess its safe to say no recruits will be coming in this weekend...
Did anyone else see the great photo on hokiesports.com of Allen going up and over Miller-Mcintyre? What are the rules as far as giving credit, etc to post it over here?

Dynasty is just way better. More roster turnover keeps it fresh, more teams to play, conference realignment, recruiting players, building god awful teams into powerhouses, the list goes on. Also Madden gameplay is slower and more nuanced (which makes it feel less like football)
What type of vehicle do you have? I may have to research your vehicle to figure out the difference.
The reason it's bad to drive in 4WD all the time is because when you take a turn all 4 wheels have to spin at different rates. The transfer case forces one wheel on each axle to spin at the same rate so when you take a turn it puts a ton of strain on the system. It's not ideal to drive like that in normal conditions. AWD systems get by this by having a central differential which will allow both axles to receive power in different amounts in order to more easily vary all 4 wheel speeds during a turn. Your vehicle may have a "transfer case" which has the capability to differentiate power distribution to the front and rear axles. In this case, it's acting effectively like a central differential even if the company doesn't refer to it as such.
EDIT: just looked (very very briefly) at the X-drive and BMW actually based the X-drive off of 4WD. They offered vehicles with 4WD in the 80s and the X-drive system replaced it. So it's probably more closely related to 4WD than AWD in that regard...again, I looked at it very quickly. Just thought that was kind of interesting.
Early afternoon on Friday
I like him. Looks explosive through the line
Well since you were in the band would you want to be compensated or would you be happy that you got to contribute to a video game? You get your work out there for a ton of people to hear while they're playing so it's a little bit of free advertising.
On the other hand I could see them compensating the school/maybe the band directly since they are essentially paying for a music track to be in the game.
Is it just me or does Madden just not do it for you too?
I just end up simming entire seasons, I cant put my finger on what it is.
That GIF is one of the most incredibly athletic things I've ever seen. I forgot how explosive he is.
I would be happy with a 'chance of ice' just to have an excuse to work from home. I could hopefully just use the excuse 'wellp Tunnel Traffic, you know' that seems to get by 30% of the time.
x2 from here in Hampton!
Thank youuuuu.
I feel like they've taken a nose dive in reliability ever since, I noticed it even before I knew they were bought out.
and Underground used to just have this emo tone to it, it was like "I liked weather before it was cool", now its wearing its brothers leaterman jacket and smoking cigs just to fit in.
33" for most of the state of Virginia (aside from chesapeake/VA Beach)
I'm in Hampton roads (Langley AFB). What are we looking at? Thanks!
I think its just a matter of definitions. I agree that the transfer case in my car more than likely differentiates the power distribution between front and rear while the differentials load the axles. I've got an x-drive bmw which is modeled to drive like a rear-wheel car and you can only feel the front wheels take over in less than ideal driving conditions (probably the transfer case redistributing power). My folks have a 4WD tacoma and I love that truck. If I had the choice, I'd drive that in the snow as it really helps getting in and out of 30"+ snow drift byproducts of VDOT's handy work.
Yea, being featured in a game was always something they looked forward too. Heck they still talk about missing it.
One question I had is what would happen if the band tried to sue? They use the bands music and when I was in the Pride, they recorded us at the Peach Bowl in 03 (just ignore the game ever happened) to put on the game.
Here here! I'm originally from Augusta Co. Stuarts Draft to be exact.
My house and carport are an A frame...this happens on
a regular basis when it snows...sigh...
I live in Augusta Co. Looks like we're going to be ground zero. Good thing I have a Jeep!
Because we need something French to show we surrender to the snow (no disrespect to my man 60wasp) and also it's delicious.

I seriously doubt that Jackson would transfer after his first semester on campus. Just sayin'.
I went last night to Kroger and Wal-Mart...both were damn near empty
Ditto for me., Weather Underground used to be really a good source, but since the Weather Channel bought them, they just aren't as good.
Eshiben, we appreciate you, man. Thanks

Well, yeah I'm not planning on taking on 30" of snow, it'll get plowed (at some point) and my AWD CX-5 is going to be a lot more useful than the Camry I traded in :)
