Good Game Vegas, live by the punt block, die by the punt block. You actually blocked 2 of my punts while I only got 1 of yours, but I got a TD out of it. Ugly game, but I'll take the W.

that blocked punt thing...is un-good.


The using only 2 defensive plays all game thing is much worse IMO. I didn't notice it while scouting, but I did notice it when I scanned the game log checking for punt blocks. That's some BS.

I know nothing can be done about it, other than to point out it's a chicken #$%^ way to play and hope we get through that way. It's not quite as bad as that poker player who had his buddy in the production truck feed him his opponents hole cards, making him unbeatable, but it's close.

Oh yeah, there is one other way to stop the exploits...winning! I don't know exactly how, the only thing I did differently from our regular season game was load up my front 4 punt rushers with my 4 fastest players.

Got an error message on the first post, and thought it didn't go through so I hit submit again. Double posted.

Ran out of bullets in the end and that clinching run was one of the most amazing ones ever against me...!!

We stopped it and he dragged and dragged my defender to the length I've never seen. I think I made the most possible game out of it and was probably 1 youthful high end play maker away from having this be a to the buzzer game. Good game, CR...!

I skimmed your post and will read it in full and check on the situation in a second but yep that's p*ssy ball/***** made.

Been up against the two defensive play system before.

Update: Wow, 2 plays and punt blocks. I love how earlier in this thread home boy was trying to play it off like he had no idea the turnovers in the box score were punt blocks. I had no idea...!!! LOL

GG Smirt!! Man, I can't believe our stats were that even after 60 minutes!! If not for a fortunate INT return & a RB that refused to be pulled down, you would be representing our Conference in the title game.

I legitimately tried to stop your 2-point conversions and you still busted that first one through on me. I'll have to try something different next time.

Great Game Raidergreg , It had everything , hard hitting causing fumbles, big play. You stopped my rushing game. My game plan didn't work out like planned. I got way too many penalties to overcome. Good Luck in the Superbowl.

Conference Championship Recap

AXC

#5 Oakland Outlaws 33
@
#1 Buffalo Skull Crushers 21

In a close game statistically with the score that remained close for most of the game, it was a Interception returned for a touchdown thrown by Buffalo that was the big difference.

NXC

#14 Vegas Black Aces 19
@
#2 Gem City Gangsters 25

In a very odd game, it was special teams that decided this one. A combined 3 punt blocks and 11 fieldgoal attempts with the difference being Gem City going 6/6 and Vegas 4/5.

XFL X PREVIEW

Gem City Gangsters
Vs
Oakland Outlaws (-7)

This is Gem City's 3rd trip to the title game going 1-1, winning XFL V and losing XFL IX.

This is Oakland's 3rd trip to the title game going 2-0, winning XFL II and XFL IV.

I'm going to go out on a limb and say the winner will have 2 guns in their logo and have a team name that's slang for a criminal. I can't be wrong.

I have the overrides switched on the punt return team so the front four are DL. Good luck tonight.

I wish I had your confidence in my team. Should be a great game! Good luck!
