I would love to talk about it in this news post but I gotta download it and play it, so uh, uh, *zoooom*

Just under 11 hours left to get your entries in for the Say What contest. If you have submitted an entry but don’t see it online then please resend it to me because everyone I have received so far has been uploaded. Midnight is the cutoff and I will take any submission up until then.

Our fantasy football season (thanks to the good people at EA Sports!) is underway, and the wheeling and dealing has begun. I need a starting wide receiver so I am probably gonna bribe Cone or Pretz with a nice dinner or something.

From what I can tell Atomz stands as the best team, Go Isotopes. Sadly our good man Cone’s team is made up of retired and injured stars. My team is one player away from being a top of the chart contender!

Let the madness begin!

It just might be true. There is a [url=http://msnbc.msn.com/id/5721197/]story[/url] on MSNBC that talks about a small theatre having Halo tourneys for $60/team entry fee (yikes). The only part of the article that annoys me is this:

Was that really necessary? The rest of the article was good and here I am thinking that the author is a video game hating idiot.

At any rate, it would be very slick to have weekly console parties at a local theatre. I don’t think anything would be cooler than seeing Master Chief 10′ tall on the big screen. I can only imagine this concept will spread amongst independantly owned theatres nationwide if it generates a sizeable revenue.
