      W00t!

      EDIT: I swear, is somebody tossing change (coins) up and down in the background? And what's with G's "I don't want to go there" around 5:20, lol.

      EDIT 2: Nice cursing, too, G.

      I can only assume the coins is from my ceiling fan... it doesn't quite have the same sound but it's about the same consistency. I don't hear it as loudly just sitting here but obviously my mic might have picked it up.

      As for the other two, it's most likely just a product of Chris going out of town tomorrow and quickly editing this together and missing my outtakes.

      Pretty much figured the last two, I just couldn't help pointing them out. Well, the curse at least. The "I don't want to go there" just confused me.

      That fan sound is very interesting. Strangely, it seemed more noticeable when Chris was talking than when you were. Though sometimes recordings work like that ... ahhhh ... especially if you weren't talking when he was, then the only sound your mic may have been picking up was your fan, rather than nothing at all.

      EDIT: Just realized I didn't say this, but good job on the podcast guys. Good listen.

      Well done guys. It really did sound like coins clanging together. Weird.

      Yup, if they can fix the robo man coverage this would be a huge improvement. It's too the point where there is no reason to run a slant unless the cpu is in zone. Also, that weird DB slow down, freeze, and get out of position "glitch" has cost me a lot of defensive stands... it needs to be fixed ASAP.

      Apologies if swear words slipped in....at least it shows you guys are listening!

      I haven't relistened for a 'change' sound, but we had that mysteriously show up on a podcast we did a long time ago and never again. Not sure what that would be.

      Maybe it's some sort of eerie haunting going on...

      Great stuff as always fellas and I couldn't agree more with G. This game is so damn fun to play, it's amazing the leaps and bounds they've made from '10.

      Nice podcast guys... I agree with tommy about things that needed to be addressed. Especially with the pass coverage & the players getting stuck on eachother.

      In addition to the examples he gave, I have noticed on zone reads that sometimes the DE will crash & try to get to the HB but get stuck on the TE or tackle & therefore when I keep it with the QB, he is in position to tackle me for a loss.
