My Madden Curse

For all those who have been living under a rock, there is a conspiracy theroy amongst American Football fans that the athlete that appears on EA's annual release "Madden" franchise will either A. get injured the next season, or B. Perform like sh!t in the next season.

However my Madden curse is much more dire. (7 match losing streak to be precise)
And no its not becuase I'm gonna be on the cover of Madden 2010 (pffftttt as if that would ever happen) its something where anything that could possibly go wrong in a game of Madden will without a dout happen to me while im playing.

I'll admit that Im not the best player in Naenae but when sh!t happens to you like it does too me, it just sucks a whole lot of man boobs. And im reguarly playing against this guy called Tama, yeah you may know him. He could read you the NFL rule book to you backwards while doing a handstand asleep.

So this is why Im turning gray, balding, and emo.

Its early in the 4th quater. I have a 7 point lead. Tama has the ball (He's the Browns with Mr Anderson by the way and I'm the Broncos, random teams FTW) and he scrambles out of the pocket only to put his foot out on the touchback line. SAFETY!!! (worth two points, just like a conversion for all the rugby nutz out there.)so its now 16-7 to me.

Its about this time were the atmosphare looks a bit like this....

2 minute warning comes around and Tama has used all his time outs and is on his own 5 yard line. Game won right? I mean he's got to score twice to win and has no-time outs left and has to travel the whole field to get a TD. Right?

ERRR!!! WRONG!!!

And thats the End of the blog.
Thanks for reading.

Nah jokes I'll tell ya what happened tommorow. What? You wanna hear now? Okay then....

He throws a short pass to his monster tight end you is about 20 feet tall and weighs in heavier then a whale. I take control of the defender and get completley run over. (A.K.A Lomu over Catt.) So what does the computer controlled defender decide to do. Oh well he thought this would be the perfect time to pull out a face mask. Yeah good call captain f**king d*ckhead. So now he's up to about halfway becuase of one play that should have only gone for about 10 yards.

Long story short, he ended up scoring a TD to Cribbs who was wide open in the endzone. Like WIDE OPEN. like it woulda taken my defence 5 weeks to get withen 10 yards of him, wide open.

Its now 16-14 to me still.

Onside kicks hardly ever work, so im still in the drivers seat. So Tama takes about a year and a half to kick it. (Play clock was on 0, not sure on the rulling of that though) and someone from my team wraps the ball up with some christmas paper and pops aon a pretty little ribbon for good measure and says "here you can have it cause im such a faggot and remember to vote Obama"

Now the room looks like this.....

But he still has no time-outs so Im still gonna rack up a big fat W and take back the trophy. He makes it up the field to about the 40 yard line on my side. with about 30 seconds to go, time running he completes a pass to some unknowen dude, but he's still out of feild goal range and he was taken down in field so the times still ticking away. And out of the blue the timeout icon appears and his f**king pussey arse player is faking an injury. What are the chances of that buillsh!t happening so now the clock is stopped cuase he wants to have a little cry about how he was abused as a child.

When sh!t like that happens to you, you know you aint gonna win, and what happened? Yep he got the field goal and won. WTF!!!!

One of the boys managed to get a snapshot of my expression after the match....

Other bull-sh!t that has occured only when I seem to play is the ball going straight through my reciever's hands, litterally, like spawning through his hands! and heaps of those "Im a quater back running backwards looking at my own goal post's but its all good because I can spin around 360 degrees and throw it into triple covergae for a TD" plays happen against me. I also seem to be on the wrong side of the reffs aswell. But I'm sought of use to that.

Hopefully my next blog will be about me winning. But dont hold your breath as this curse is gonna overstay its visit it seems.

And remember to always keep your eye on the ball.

Im outiez before I smash my head into this screen thing I'm looking at.

ive had a halfback make a break, then fumble, turn it over and the opposition score a match-winning TD. in the 4th. how the hell do you fumble a ball AFTER you make a break?! that guys getting fired.

Oh that sucks bro.
To add to my list Ive lost two games in a row by 1 measly point. And in both games a touchdown was scored by the opposition in the last 20 seconds.lol

And in my lastest match I had two onsides kicks in a row go against me.

Safety being like a conversion? More like accidentally running in to your in goal and going dead and the defenders being awarded two points.

But yeah I get what you mean. I've had things like what happened to Fox happen to me every now and then. Fumble the ball away when up by a TD or two yet the opposition come back and force OT, or even win it in regular time.

That TE Winslow for the Browns is a machine though, my starter in Fantasy Football.
