First, stop top posting. Second, updated rosters will be available, so why
should we not be playing the game now?

It isn't the roster. It's the dialogue. Look at what he's saying. Not much
of a "position battle" anymore, huh?

This is a stupid post. What in God's name is so ironic about this.
Oftentimes enough, when rosters are released with a game, teams make changes
and things happen.

This post is probably related more to a racist attitude than anything else.
Coming from Jonah, this kind of thing is typical.

Usually after week 6 of the regular season the rosters are usually posted.
Also, I'll post any way I feel like posting. When you start paying the 49
clams a month that I dish out to optimum online for me, THEN I'll post the
way you deem fit!

Thank you
Gus

Here the dates of the roster updates:

Sep 7 (Tue) Season Start

Oct 12 (Tue) Week 5

Nov 9 (Tue) Week 9

Dev 7 (Tue) Week 13

Jan 3 (Tue) Week 17

Feb1 (Tue) pre-Superbowl

So there is really no good reason for the game company to wait to release a
game based on rosters.

Why do you WANT to post like a moron? Hell, I can't make you capitalize
correctly and use punctuation either. Why do it? I mean, even without
proper capitalization and punctuation, I can figure out what the person is
trying to say. So why do it?

Is this really a stand you are going to be proud of. What's next? Not
going to use utensils when you eat? Damn snobby people with their forks and
knives!

And nobody will see it since here on usenet we have the luxury of kill-filtering
idiots like you.
