Have you ever been destroying one of your friends at a game of Madden? Have you ever looked at their face whilst the are losing, and seen the face of a beaten foe? Have you ever felt sorry for them? Well I have. Today I was beating my roommate at a game of Madden. The score was 28-17. There was 50 seconds left. I decided...in my infinite wisdom...that I would throw a willing interception so that he could score a quick touchdown. He did and he got a 2-point conversion. I then decided to throw another interception to give him false hope for a last minute field goal. This is where things started to snowball. He not only made the last second field goal, but he got the ball first in the overtime. He then mocked me as he slowly marched down the field and won the game. This brutal mocking left me in tears. With my spirit broken, my hopes crushed, and my dreams shattered, you would think he would say, "Thanks for giving me a second chance." He said, "Sometimes some people are just better players." What is the moral of this story? If you are ahead in Madden and you see your friend looking defeated, do one thing. Crush them. Mercilessly and without any kindness. Laugh at them and destroy them. never give them a second chance.

Wow that sounded intense. Your roommate was possibly a little better than you. You should have Andrew Prestler give you some tips. I hear he is pretty good...
