Does anyone have the newest Fifa, I know it is old, but it is the newest one out. Fifa 14? I was wondering what online modes they had? My buddies and I were contemplating getting it since it is pretty cheap now and we were wanting to know how we could play online together.

Do they have a mode like Madden where you control every aspect of your team and your friends do the same? Or is it just playing online against a bunch of other people?

hey man, sorry to hear about your cat.

i have been going thru a lot recently with my cat of 10 years. he had a problem with his pancreas, partly due to chronic constipation (bad for cats). one day he just stopped eating and within 24 hours he was nearly dead. thankfully we got him to the vet in time. he spent a week at the vet on IVs and a lot of drugs. they eventually put a feeding tube on him. he's been back home for two months - but not after a few more scares and rushed trips back to the vets. he had his feeding tube removed about 10 days ago. he eats fine on his own, but its a pain giving him his medicine w/out the tube, because, lets face it, cats are jerks. but overall he is about 90% back to normal and i am i have a few thousand less dollars to spend on donuts and bojangles.

anyway, i hope your cat gets better like mine did.

My cat gets some pretty nasty tumors at times. Got one so bad it looked like you could nearly see her heart, hole was huge and deep. She just keeps going out and getting in fights though. Tried to keep her indoors, but she wont have it.

thanks dude. i really appreciate it. yeah, ours is only 4 but she stopped eating and would barely move in the past day and was puking up something that wasn't exactly food. took her to the vet and blood tests seem to indicate kidney problems. stupid cats with their defective kidneys. anyways she's at the vet for the night, but only after i had to literally pull her out from behind/underneath the claw foot tub where she was hiding. then i had to walk her to the vet in the pouring rain. it literally feels like the worst thing i've ever done. i know i did it to get her help, but man that was hard.

yeah we don't know what did it. maybe she got into something in our apartment? she doesn't go outside, this is exactly the wrong neighborhood for that. i hope she gets better and we don't have to give her stupid kidney med shots for the rest of her life :(

Yeah, he wanted Porter to replace MKG. I was kind of an ass like I can be at times, but nothing that bad. I thought it was ridiculous, and now after Porters rookie year I definitely do now. He got all kinds of bent out of shape.

I found my cat as a kitten hiding underneath my car one day. She was the runt of the litter I guess. Now an as adult she is fearless. I've seen her fight 3 black snakes, chase other cats, get into it with Possums. Had to save her several times.

Played pickup ball at the local park for 3 hours today, then drove and played a rec league game.

My knees and joints are throbbing. Holy hell.

Those bring back the buzz kids are idiots. They even trade marked that name for some odd reason. They were never fans of the Bobcats.
