Alright, as for the Jets/Panthers thing. Let's get this out of the way up front: It's never good to quit on a game in this league for any reason. So while based on the situation, I do understand n8's frustration, that still doesn't excuse it.
Some other thoughts:

This is not the first time you've flavored your comments with none-too-subtle jabs at this league or the people in it. You're entitled to your opinion of course, but since you're in this league now too I really don't understand the point of these little asides, it just strikes me as unnecessary. We've never been anything but supportive of the JV league, I view it as a mutually beneficial co-existance and always have. That said, I do follow that thread, so let's not pretend like the official league is some wretched hive of scum and villainy while the JV league is some Madden Shangri-La resplendent with universal fair play and totally free of controversy.

That would have rubbed me the wrong way as well, so I understand the frustration there. Yanksrule, let's assume everyone knows the rules until they establish that they don't.
[quote name='sprice8688']i remember being told u can play ur game regardless the score till the 2 min warning.... i would have passed to mayb not.for.the td purposly but ur running a field goal block i aint running it... im gonna run or pass for the first down to continue running the clock....[/QUOTE]
This is pretty much correct. Just because the game rolls over to the 4th quarter doesn't mean you need to stop running your offense. It's not all one way or the other though, you don't need to run every play but you probably also shouldn't be chucking up bombs. I threw a TD pass with about 4 minutes left up 24-0 on the Bills (although to be fair, it was 1 yard) and there wasn't anything wrong with that.

You're not. There was no harm done ultimately and the game was able to be counted. I do need to give you a strike since that's the precedent we've established for people quitting on games, but I don't think any further action is necessary on it.
[quote name='staticz']N8 I'm not going to give you any advice because I felt the same way when I played the Panthers. Same four or five plays
followed by a celebratory dive into the end zone. I've never been closer to rage quitting in my entire madden career.[/QUOTE]
Please tell me he's not still doing this. If so, I know he's been warned about it.
