i haven't seen anyone mention my man Derrick Thomas! he was an animal on that game also, along with Okoye.

The best running backs by far were:

Bo Jackson
Christian Okoye
Barry Sanders

Is it just me or did all the running backs slow down and get worse about halfway through the season? They started off averaging about 60 yards a carry and by the end of the season it was like 5 yards a carry

Once again I am proud to be a Chiefs fan. I couldn't believe it when he died. I watched the news all day just watching that ticker saying "Linebacker Derrick Thomas of the Kansas City Chiefs died today in a car accident tonight" I couldn't believe what a had read. He was my favorite player which is why I resurrected him on Madden 2003. I put him on the Chiefs which is the team I always play with. He broke his own record of seven sacks and almost doubled it with 13. He would probably still be playing if he hadn't died. I could not believe it.

UA...don't remind me...i was crushed...I am also a huge Bears fan as i am a Chiefs fan...I was also crushed when His Sweetness died...

Did anybody play with the Houston Oilers in Super Tecmo Bowl? Their spread offense was unstoppable, but their defense blew donkey nuts.

BJC - Please tell me that last post of yours was an incredibly bad joke that I didn't get.

Without getting into the whole race argument (which is ridiculous in this case), did anyone else notice how childish Bo was acting during the celebrity softball game (part of the All-Star week festivities) on ESPN the other night?

BJC, you are a ****ing moron...

That celebrity All-Star Game was hilarious. Did anyone else see Adam Carolla's catch that robbed a Home Run?

Anyone remember that the Cowboys RB was like Robert Lavette or someone really sucky like that on the original?

I may have missed this answer, but where do you get CPU version of TecmoBowl? I couldn't find one online.

Anyone who played the original knows that Lawrence Taylor is the best video game linebacker ever created. You could run down anyone on the game to make the tackle, and you could block every kick. We had to make rules against using LT to block kicks when we played each other.
