TMZ confirms reports of Giants star WR Odell Beckham and his owner (Alpha) are both gay and involved with each other.
TMZ also reports Alphas favorite porn star is Ron Jeremy, we have yet to confirm though.
A picture posted on Broncos rookie QB Gary Dowling Instagram page announcing he is openly homosexual, he will speak to the media later today about his announcement. More details to come.
Congratulations, Eagles vs Titans in the first year of AL2 Madden 16. Khan to win most improved user most likely, running his way into the Super Bowl; he will look to Demarco to carry the load this week. The Titans picked off the Ravens 4 times in the Conference Championship to get here this week, if the Eagles have to pass early, this could favor the Titans. On offense the Titans will need to stretch the field a few times with those big receivers.
League Votes- Eagles 8, Titans 3.
Will it be another week of ‘upsets’ in AL2 league pick ‘em? Last week the Titans only had 4 votes, and the Ravens having 5, both came out on top and face each other this week. The Titans will look to take away what you’re best at. The Ravens put up 31 points on the top Jets defense last week. Will they be able to continue that success facing the 5th ranked scoring team in AL2? at 18 ppg, the Titans have been a defensive surprise coached by Dick Lebeau & Adler222.
League Vote: Ravens 12, Titans 8.
Potato, Derek and Drew.
The Eagles will face off against the Skins this week to represent the NFC in the Super Bowl. Khan playing not only for a shot at the SB, but a shot at winning the most improved player. Making his first appearance in the playoffs for AL2 this season, playing his biggest rivalry in Madden. They are a huge underdog this week facing the Skins. Eagles have just 3 votes to win it this week, he will look to confuse the Skins user DBs, and own the T.O.P. If they do, they have a good shot at winning this week. The Skins will need to run the ball, more than 7 times. If the Skins try to pass it all game and not try to keep balance on the offense, that could cost them the game.
League Vote: Skins 17, Eagles 3.
Good luck this week, Super Bowl is hopefully tomorrow, after that we will start the offseason schedule.
Instead of the Mexicans making picks for us, we decided to let the league make the predications. Instead of putting people on blast, we will just do a tally of the votes.
Matchup Preview:
Patriots V Titans
No surprise these two owners are here, Ethan putting up 500+ points this season will be tough to stop. Adler is great at adjusting. Look to see 60 pass attempts from the patriots. Adler needs to disguise his coverages or Ethan will eat ‘em up. Adler needs to try to stay on the field as long as possible on offense. Having one of the best QBs and extending plays will be key. Game Time: Tonight
Owner Votes:
15 – Pats
6 – Titans
Jets V Ravens
New face in the playoffs this year, Yeager making his first appearance. The number 1 seed Ravens face off against the NFLs best run defense Jets. Ravens will look to ‘Joe Cool’ to lead them in the passing game. Rookie Perriman has been their speedster this season catching 18 TDs and averaging 22 yards per catch. Taj has been consistent across the board, no one player has been his go-to this year, this will be difficult for the Ravens defense because of such balance.
Owner Votes:
Jets – 17
Ravens – 4
If you would like to contribute to next week’s predications let us know.
What days you guys wanna draft?
Saturday, Sunday or Monday? If you don't comment below we will find you.
AL2 after 4 Super Bowls we are going to Restart the league. We are restarting because we think with restructured rules we can make the league better. After 3 Super Bowls we have multiple teams that are considered over powered. The draft class in this madden helps with that. In this new franchise we are trying to make it more fun, but also slow down how long it takes to make an OP team. We have some updated rules for the new league. As well as the team select seniority list.
New Rules:
****Custom Playbooks****
You can now relocate your franchise.
3 trades per team per season, this includes draft picks. Have you seen the rookie draft class? Why would you want to trade your picks.
We are going to start youtubing dominate players schemes. If we find it on YouTube as a glitch money play we will boot you. (Tony The Enforcer)
53 Players on your team.
We are clearing cap penalties for the first season. At week 9 as well as after the season. This also means for the first season you can cut and resign players immediately. After the first season you cannot do that. You will have to wait 2 weeks like in the past.
Trading is going to be different. You are more likely to see a Jimmy Graham (28 years old) trade get approved rather than a Gronk (25 years old) trade being approved. Just makes more sense. •
Nano Blitzes/Glitch Plays - Absolutely have no place in this league. If we feel you are running glitch plays, we will take action needed.

Updated AL2 Rules: ***Do not restart games against the CPU, The only time you can is if you were winning vs user and disconnect now to play his autopilot.
Reason: We have always had this rule in place, people just misunderstood autopilot restart and playing someone's auto on a no show. You cannot restart vs a users CPU unless you played vs that user and the game was in hand, and you disconnect. That is the only time you can restart vs a CPU.
*** Defense: if you have built your team around 99 Man or 99 Zone coverage players, yes you are allowed to play man the entire game, or zone the entire game, but don’t run the same formation same play the entire game, running the same type of play over and over, can get you kicked.
Reason: We make the rules to this league, and we deal with the complaints. If you disagree with it you can leave the league. We have to many complaints and issues on this topic.
We have a lot of people breaking the CPU stats rules. Here they are again, if you have to spam one play to win VS the CPU thats fine, but sub out the player so you don't break these rules. We will start kicking repeating offenders.
User vs. CPU:
• Rushing: You cannot rush for more than 175 rushing yards and 4 TDs with one RB.
• Receiving: You cannot have more than 200 Receiving yards and 4 TDs with one WR.
• No scoring over 58 points- no exceptions.

While we start the off-season we need to vote on how we will do preseason. a lot of teams started off with lower confidence going into the regular season last year because we simmed without injuries. How would you guys want to do it this year? if you have a different idea post it and we can decide on that as well.
Sim without injuries but enough time for game prep and cutting..
Play without injuries advance once a day..

The Steelers came into Baltimore for a week 2 showdown. The Steelers controlled the game for 3 quarters leading the Ravens 21-10 late into the 4th quarter. The Ravens started to control the game late. Getting the ball back with 7 seconds left on the clock Joe Flacco throws a deep post to Torrey Smith between the quarter zones and when Smith came down with it no one was going to catch him. Here is the final play of the game to send the Steelers packing. The Ravens(2-0) travel to Cleveland (1-1) for week 3, while the Steelers(0-2) travel to Carolina to matchup against the hot 2-0 Panthers
