Re: R.I.P. those affected by the school shooting in CT

I agree with Teal, mental health is the big issue. We had a friend who's husband developed some really bad mental issues and there was nothing she could do to get him to get help. He never got violent but it was touch and go for a while. Not sure gun control would solve anything at this point. And w...

Re: Madden NFL 13

Despite my criticisms, the pick up and play portion of this game does play a good game of football. The gameplay in CCM is a little problematic but still better than NCAA. Patch comes out tomorrow supposedly.

Re: Madden NFL 13

It just annoys me that I can't play the game the way I want to play the game - play out a season by playing a lot of different games with different teams. I get tired of playing as the same team all the time. I like to play as various teams in the context of the season rather than be stuck with one ...

Re: MLB 2k12

I am on the opposite side of the fence - not a PS3 owner so The Show is not an option. But I really like the batter - pitcher interface and I like the fielding in this game and I also see some promising improvements in the demo. And since for the second year in a row I have long since stopped playin...

Re: MLB 2k12

I have to give it a try. I got to the point last year where I could pitch a pretty good game, but for some reason I hit like crap. I hit like crap in the EA game as well. Maybe I just suck at hitting. But at some point I have to stop playing Skyrim....

Re: God, ESPN is a journalistic joke

What is even more interesting to me is that now ESPN is the Texas Longhorns Network. Can we expect unbiased coverage of college football? ESPN has a lot of financial reasons to want Texas football and basketball to succeed.

Since the Falcons lost I have no do in the hunt. I sort of pulled for the Jets simply because sports radio can now focus on the Patriots loss instead of the Falcons loss. The Falcons game was over in my mind at halftime. That interception touchdown - while in completely different situations - remind...

GOTY - Red Dead Sports GOTY -NCAA 2001 - Tough call. I have been a much bigger NFL fan this year so I have played the hell out of Madden, but I think that NCAA 2011 was the better game and had more variety of gameplay. I liked MLB 2K10 a lot and it was a big step up - but it had some flaws that kept...

I agree that Vick has done his time. Personally, I can't pull for him. Here was a guy who wasted his talent in Atlanta, never studied the playbook and played on talent alone.
