What is the Craziest Thing your Players have done?
 

This past week I played a solitaire game. My Queen's University Golden Gaels Vs. the University of Western Ontario Mustangs.

the Mustangs went up by a field goal late in the 3rd Quarter, but On the last play of the game the Gaels had a receiver semi open in the Endzone behind the Speed knob. I Placed the appropriate Pass stick down and placed the ball, I then realized that one of the Mustangs was somewhat closer to the ball than my Gael was... sadly I had to turn the mustang to make what I was sure was an interception.

I turned on the board and the Golden Gael player Launched into the air and made the grab just before the mustang player could get there.

I know that it was just a combination of the players positioning over the motor and the Jolt of it turning on that made it all happen, but it was highlight reel material and fun to watch! Really seemed like he "wanted it more". frstplc

I swear once your teams are all painted up and on the board there is a little bit of magic in there somewhere :)

In a solitaire game around the Holidays last year, I was playing Patriots vs. Chargers, LT charged the line, there was a battle of strength, he managed to sneak through the mayhem untouched, ran 60 yards between the hash marks kind of swaying beautifully left to right, then 5 freaking yards before the endzone he just falls over dead!!! I was yelling, I could not believe what just happened.

He was running towards the motor and I guess he got caught up in the vibes he bounced right over.

To me these moments are the true magic of the hobby.

Good thread, thanks!

Once I was playing a coach with the lions I had Barry Sanders in the I formation he hit the pile then turn right and ran right around the end for a 69 yard touchdown!! It was amazing to see!!!

Here is the most recent...
 

This is not a joke...it is the complete and honest truth...I made this pass last year and the football landed just perfect and stuck to the receivers foot!

I'm playing a game right now between the Toxic Waste and Zombies. The Toxic Waste receiver catches the ball and runs straight down the field. Around the Zombie 30 he suddenly turns and heads straight toward the sideline. I'm thinking "Great, now he'll run out of bounds". Instead, he gets about 2 yards from the sideline, almost stops and turns slowly toward the endzone and then runs like a bat out of hell straight into the endzone while staying within 2 yards of the sideline. I gotta start video taping my games. ppcrn ppcrn ppcrn

one time they did what I was hoping they would do. but just that one time

Al, I absolutely LOVE that avatar!

Thanks Shabby. Wolfie made it for me. He's the true master when it comes to creative design. The Tweak wouldn't even exist if not for him. All I did was tell him that I wanted a logo for my Fairies team, thinking Tinker Bell with a flame thrower and this is what he came up with. I swear sometimes he can read my mind.... :eek: ;)

I was playing a guy long ago
 

and it was the 4th qtr, last drive, and I had him 4th and 80. I am pretty confident I can stop him but...........his fastest receiver broke free and he hit the pass. His guy is streaking down the middle of the field and I have no one around him. He gets 79 yards and turns 90 degrees and runs right out of bounds. I guess he caught the motor surge too but I wasn't complaining.

A long time ago, ..............
 

.................in a solitaire league of mine, ...........I was like 12 or 13 years old, .............I was playing the Giants against the Cowboys. Back then I had kicker that would kick about 40 - 50 yards and I used him for punts.

The Giants had to punt and placed the TTQB on the field for the punt and the return man "caught" the ball.....ltsplbll :chr:

I was soooooo taken by the moment, I ran upstairs to tell my Mom and Dad and grabbed a camera and took a picture of that play.

I know it's in my Mom's house somewhere...
