You're supposed to wear the controller on your head, not use it as a footstand.

I didn't use it as a footstand, it was attached to the controller that I used as a baseball.

I don't mind losing to people I know, but for some reason I HATE losing ranked games on NFL 2K3. It really p!isses me off, especially if I lose because I've screwed up somehow, like missing a field goal or going for it on 4th down instead of kicking. And Sinizuh, if you get xbox live, you can find out how much I suck. If any of the Beta testers are around they can check the NFL 2K3 leaderboard and see where I'm ranked, then let you know.

Wait, you mean we're not supposed to wear controllers on our heads!?!

Of course! All those buttons and triggers. I knew I was doing something wrong. I mean, my tongue could only control one thing at a time. ... wait, crazy thought, what if I used two hands with the controller!
Then I could like hit buttons on one side and move analog sticks with the other hand!

Holy cow, maybe I can finally beat halo now.

Hey you guys...I got a earpiece/mike at verizon made by Jabra that is much better than the communicator. It fits right in your ear and the mike is on the earpiece and out of the way.

Casper and DZ: Look me up and we'll try to play again.
