I've been away for a bit . . . but I'm getting bored.

So there's more to come. I promise.

So like tens of you before me, I'm sure, I've made the leap to the PS3 finally after years of stalwarting. I love my 360 and the HD DVD, and streaming netflix and all that, but there's one thing I love more than all of that combined, and that thing is BASEBALL. And 2 weeks of 2K9 slugfests and freezing finally sealed the deal: here I am Sony, kneeling humbly before you (thanks for the $200 credit though).

So please, pretty please, pretend I'm your best friend's kid and walk me through ... Read More

It's no secret -- I'm a fan of the Friday Night Lights television show.

And NCAA 09 is my game of choice.

Chances are good you are with me on at least one of those 2 statements.

So with this-- I took my first foray into the Create-A-Prospect realm entering my third year of my C-USA dynasty (Memphis) by creating as close of approximations of the following characters on ... Read More

For those of us without DirecTV -- not only do we lose out on the NFL Gameday package and its accoutrements -- but we've had to wait an extra season for the return of hands down the best show on television: Friday Night Lights. If you're not up to date -- go ahead and head to NBC for free streams of the last 2 seasons, or even through NETFLIX on your 360 (which to tell the truth is where I re-watched the entire ...

So yeah, yesterday was my birthday.

Judging by the outpouring of chalkboard messages, you all were a bit preoccupied by the amazingness that is the holidays (aka NFL Playoofs and College Bowl Season), and I can't say I blame you.

And just like King James can't get a win on his, I guess we all have to deal with the double edged sword of being Capricorns.

On the plus side, a Capricorn ... Read More

Did he catch this one? Chances are about 55%, according to "stats"

Ok, so if you're at all paying attention the NFL this year, you know this:
The Cleveland Browns are having a rough season

Like really rough.

How rough?

Let's recap:
  • Hometown hero LaCharles Bentley sued the team, we went 0-4 in the preseason, and wore sh!t-brown spandex running

It's not really a game, per se, but the macy's site has a fun, albeit creepy Santa builder.

Ho Ho Ho Humbug to you too.

I know I wouldn't. Evidently this kid would over HALO 3.

Read about it here: GIZMODO

Makes sense -- I mean, it does look like he's wearing a Celtic kit, so we know he'll be using them tissues in front of him this year.


Ugh, kids today.

In the wake of Chris' and Caley's 2K suggestions of different sports -- here's a couple current titles that I think EA or 2K (or just about anyone) would do well in taking a flyer on. No, I don't think I'm the only one who's thought of these. No, I don't think I'm a beautiful and unique snowflake. You shouldn't either.

(Oh yeah -- I'm reverting to bland blog titles, since my "kooky" or ... Read More

The usual ones: wife, baby, work, bands.

More gaming planned for the Holidays, and more writing to go along with it.

Plenty to talk about: Madden season ended (recap catch-up), Memphis is bowl eligible in my C-USA Dynasty, Kerry Wood is the motherf*cking man and the Yankees can spend all the money they want to fall on their faces in September, the Feast of Saint Nicholas, oh, and a little thing called ...

By now everyone's down-loaded the update and gotten a chance to peruse the "environment." I have too, and here are a few thoughts and grades . . . what are yours?

I personally never had any issues with the blade system before, but then again I didn't buy a whole helluva lot of games and/or upgrades.

So no gaming last night.

No Madden Franchise. No FIFA-ing. No demo downloads. No NCAA Dynasty. On-line? No. Heck, I didn't even start up Tetris on my iPhone.

It feels weird.

But it happens.

And I survived.

What happened? Real life happened: I worked. Then I had to cook dinner. Had to make a stop at ... Read More

Ok, so I grew up in Akron-Canton Ohio. Close enough to Cleveland to care, but too far away to really know exactly what was going on up in the "big city." Road trips to ball games weren't really on my parents' agendas (with the 4 other kids and school and union strikes and job losses and all that -- ah, the 80's, thanks Reagan-omics), and 56 miles is a long way to ride a BMX with ...

A day later, and I'm still at zero. I feel like all those sim-geeks that complain about player progression in Madden franchises.

But seriously, WTF am I doing wrong?
