    Phew! I don't know what I would do if I couldn't "tap that" every Saturday.

    I listen to the intro every now and then just for that 1 line. It's so unintentionally funny.

    So what are the chances of the custom playbooks blog coming this week from EA? I am really looking forward to the details on this one.

    Unlike Madden NFL 12, there is no "set" schedule for information release with NCAA Football 12. Even those of us who have been down to the studio don't have any inside information about when blogs will be coming out.

    There's just over a month until E3 in Los Angeles; if I remember correctly, most of the features in NCAA Football 11 were known to the public by the time E3 happened last year. I would expect some information to be coming in the next month, but nothing more specific than that with regard to timing.

    Good point Paakaa about E3 and the "timing". Should be a fun month as it always is.

    I love what madden did with the timetable thing. Its impossible to get mad about blogs not being there when you know when to expect them. The bad thing is less ppl would check the forums daily, so maybe less activity.

    It's all good, until you miss one of your own target dates.

    Exactly, I'm fine with EA putting it out on there terms. No problem here, less of a problem then if what Steelerfan said because everyone would be going nuts about that.

    Everyone everywhere is always waiting on something.

    Give yourself enough time and don't miss it then. Don't tell us we'll have a blog at the end of the week when you haven't started it yet

    Yeah, but you unless they're already written and approved by marketing, I wouldn't want to give a date no matter how far out it is. There are way too many circumstances that could prevent you from making a specific date.

    Yep....NCAA dug themselves a hole a few times last year by doing so.

    I especially like how Madden 12 introduced a ton of features on one day and then will expand the discussion over the next two months.

    Yeah I like that too. But I also like that I don't know everything about NCAA just yet. Gives me more anticipation. I think....

    I have blocked a fair number of field goal kicks since playing 11. I would say around 30+ Also, I have blocked a few punts.

    Yeah I will try to post a video. It is mainly just timing it perfect off the edge. I'll see if I have any vids saved on my system and if not I will try to block one soon lol. I mean I have played more games than you can imagine, so that many blocks really is not a huge number IMO. Once I got the timing down, I could block them with a much better chance. I will try to post them tomorrow if I can.

    I've come within a whisker about 30 times, but I thought a tuner had again made it impossible. I have been so utterly close that I literally don't know how I missed it just several, several times.

    I've actually had some luck of getting close by taking the LB that is over in the gap by the center. On snap, speed burst and then jump and he kind of leaps through. I've had 2 blocks this year.
