Madden 18: The Rebuild(Introduction)

Welcome to my the newest series to hit my blog. This is a Madden 18 Franchise Mode series, mostly inspired by YouTuber Beardmohbox(whose channel you can find here). I'm calling it The Rebuild, and here's how it works.




The Rebuild- Summary and Rules

- The team chosen for this series will be the Indianapolis Colts. This isn't really a personal choice; they simply have the best set up for what I want to run.

- To start off The Rebuild, I will be trading away or releasing almost the entire team, and creating a completely different identity for the Colts. There are three exceptions to this rule: all rookies will stay, as will any player under 75 overall. I will also be keeping Adam Vinatieri, as he's a legend of the team and should stay.


- I will be using rosters from Week 1 of the season. The reason for this is to create an even playing field for all 32 teams, making sure that this season's results don't help or hinder any team in any way.


- I will be playing on All-Madden for the entirety of this series, and I also have my own personal slider set that I will be using and tweaking as time goes on. If you don't know what this means, don't worry; it won't be brought up again.


- There will be a one year ban on all of the players on the starting roster, during which I cannot pick any of them up. Once the first offseason begins, all bets are off.


- All the players I acquire in the first season must be free agents or signed off of opposing team's practice squads. In other words, no trades to acquire players.


- I've in preseason, with pre-existing injuries and general injuries turned off, to help me move as many players as possible. I won't be playing preseason games; this starting point is only to help me in trading guys away.


- I may only trade players for draft picks.



I think that's all for now. If I forgot anything, I'll mention in it in a future post. Below are two links to Google Doc pages. The first is every trade I made, shaping the roster in preseason. The second is a look at the roster I have left over.

Henry's Pay-Per-View Reviews: ECW Heatwave 1998

As the world collectively loses it's mind over the coronavirus(this could be a fun intro to look back on in the future), the only sanity that can be found is in the ring. Let's take a look today at what is often considered ECW's finest outing, Heatwave '98. - Jokes aside, everyone should stay safe out there. I know it's easy to panic about these mass outbreaks, and I've certainly felt very nervous about everything I've heard and read over the past week. But I think we all need some fun in our lives right now, and this show is the epitome of distraction. - The opening contest is one of the highlights of the night, as Jerry Lynn takes on Justin Credible. Credible has an entire entourage in his corner, including Chastity, Jason and Nicole Bass, and their involvement in this match at times bordered on excessive. But the match begins to hit it's peak when Lynn puts Credible through a table with a hurricanrana, and it's all fantastic from...

American Dad "Twinanigans" Review

It's been a while since the last Steve and Roger episode, and this week reminded me why that's such a classic American Dad pairing. This is a genuinely fun episode, filled with some great one liners and even a great callback to the show's past. "Twinanigans" centers around the heretofore unmentioned acting careers of Roger and Steve, who twinned it up as the Smith Brothers. I'm not going to question whether this backstory actually makes sense to the overall timeline; no one watches American Dad for continuity. Steve had to give up acting to attend kindergarten, and wants to give Roger a second chance at greatness. The two head to auditions, where Steve impresses and Roger blows it. It's here the episode kinda misfires, as it's never made abundantly clear why Roger struggles so much at acting. Is he just trying too hard, does he have some form of stage fright, does he not even know what acting is? This part of the story is just never explained, w...

The Route of Life

dedicated to my hermits, who changed my life Ch 1 My Hermit crabs Hermit crabs are sometimes hard to take care of. Especially when you never had a hermit. Last Sunday afternoon I got 2 Hermit crabs. Their names are Crabbe and Goyle. I have talked with many sales people. The first Petco we went to (where we got the hermits and their things) seemed to have no idea on the subject. So we ended up going to Dolphin Pet Village. They were more experience at the subject. Now we have some of the things we will need. Last week, I went to a second Petco. There we got a cuttlebone, which is the bone of a fish. Now they look happy. Have a good day Hermit Crabs! Ch 2 Curious Crab The week before last week, my mom looked into my crabitat and found that one of my crabs had climbed one of my fake trees. It was on the top branch. Later, when I was changing to get ready for bed, the crab fell out of his branch. I hope he is okay. He’s definitely starting to look okay. How funny do you think that story is...
