When cornered I have put a ghoul in the back corner of the endzone with the ball, hoping for a favorable crowd throwback |

ok....seriously...you're playing a game that, half the time, puts more emphasis on injuring players than in scoring touchdowns.....
please...show me where "sportsmanship" comes in to play, when you'r eplaying in this sort of event?.....
people die on the pitch...people foul on the pitch.....hell...some players bring *chainsaws* onto the pitch!!
sportsmanship?...*WHERE*??
the only thing that can even be closely considered to being sportsmanlike, is a *coach's* attitude towards another coach....not the tactics a coach uses to win....realizing a game is strictly for fun, and deaths happen, crowdpushes happen, sometimes 3-4 in a turn......(yes...i've done that...repeatedly).....fouls happen, and occasionaly a touchdown happens *gasp*....
people need to look beyond this whole crowdpush/foul(no please dear god don't start another fouling thread...it's not saturday yet) injury thing, and realize....it's pixels....you'll live without your disgustingly obnoxious, useless ma 11/sprint/sure feet/300+ TD scoring one-turner...

Be sure to do this with a side stepper or stand firm guy. Often it is easy to overlook the abilities and just see a warm (or soon to be cold) body to push and forget to check out the abilities and REALLY waste a blitz. Yes, I am guilty of falling for it. |

a non-sidestep/SF player on the sidelines is often too tempting a morsel to resist ... even if it's just a lowly lineman. Could certainly be an effective way of tying up one (or even 2) player(s). It could be worthwhile, particularly against slower teams, where it can result in their players being out of position for just enough time to score the TD. I wouldn't want to use it too often though |

I am one of the coaches that always complains about exsessive fouling. But I dont have a problem with crowdpushing.
If I place players along the sideline, my opponent has every right to push them out.
I once met a coach wich only concern was crowdpuching my players. He was a better coach than me, and managed to severly injure my team with crowdpushes. But I managed to push some back, killing some of his players. I also won the game since he was so occupied with pushing me.
A game I would have surly lost, if my opponent had put as much attention on the ball as he did with making my players crowd-surf.
I usually crowdpush with my elfs if I get a chance. Especially against dwarfs and norse (who easily finds themselfs with their frensyplayers a bit to close to the sidelines). And they tend to forget that elfs can get those extraplayers in for a blitz.
I still remember the sweet day I managed to crowdpush a sidestepping one-turner gutterrunner. To bad it wasnt injured.
But the setup was nice.
And the coach was so angry. He tought that you couldnt crowdpush sidesteppers at all.
I am still on his black list I think. |
