  1. The Toronto Maple Leafs message boards on their site is full of people worried about the new jerseys, even though it is obvious that, as an Original Six team, they will be keeping the current jerseys with only minor changes, like maybe dropping the TLM logo from the shoulder. Thats all. I would be angry to see Montreal, Toronto, New York, Chicago, Detroit or Boston radically change their look. Some of the designs people have gotten that are obvious Photoshopped have looked atrocious.
  2. Rush Hour 3 It was funny, had some good action sequences. When Carter tells the French cab driver to pretend he is a secret spy while driving, and then the cab driver just drives like a mad man, that was my favourite part. I recommend the movie to anyone who enjoyed the previous two films.
  3. Yes, AHL teams have all there jerseys and stadiums and such

    Madden 08

    I've noticed something about my defensive line. They always, ALWAYS, fall for play action. I will see Aaron Schobel get a free run towards the QB, but turn when they fake the handoff.
  5. World Of Warcraft got boring so quickly for me, it just seemed like it was nothing new.
  6. From what I have seen, 2K8 looks like the same thing I've been playing for the last 5 years. The pricing won't be low on the next gen systems, either. I have NHL 08 pre-ordered, and I'll probably get 2K8 when it becomes cheaper or I can get it used when I trade some games it. The 2K series has always been enjoyable to me, I just liked 07 more and am more excited to play 08.
  7. Most movies I enjoy I do end up seeing more then once, and I really can't think of a movie right now that I enjoyed the first time and didn't like the second time I watched it. Looking at my movie collection right now, I think I've watched every movie there at least twice. There are some movies, like Saving Private Ryan, that I have a hard time watching, but that is only because I've seen that movie probably more then ten times. Oh, I just thought of one. Not the whole movie, but the beginning of "A Bridge Too Far". I still enjoy the rest of the movie though, so it doesn't really count.

    Madden 08

    Well, that was a surprising season for sure. Somehow, my Bills managed to grab a wild card spot from the Colts in the final week of the season, finishing with a respectable 9 - 7 record. Sadly, the dream ended quickly as the Patriots squashed us in the wild card game. The Superbowl would see the Eagles face the Patriots again, but this time the Eagles (who had only three loses all season) would win the big game. Lynch was NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year, while Paul Posluzny was NFL Defensive Rookie of the Year, so the future looks bright. Ricky Manning, Posluzny and Donte Whitner all went to the Pro-Bowl for my team. I decided to move my first round pick, as my team was stacked with youth, and packaged it with Peerless Price, sending him to Jacksonville for Marcus Stroud. I want to build from the defence out, so in free agency I grabbed Charles Tillman to really make my secondary rock solid. Offensively, with Losman not progressing, the plan is to rely on Lynch. I did sign a new catching TE and Reggie Caldwell, so Losman will have some better options when I do need to run. It's defence first though for my team, so the hope is Losman won't need to throw many deep passes (although he has the arm to do it).

    Madden 08

    My Bills franchise is going well. Marshaun Lynch is leading the way for Offensive Rookie of the Year, and seems to get near 100 yards rushing a game. Just played a pivotal game against the Dolphins, my last game against them, with my Bills, the Dolphins and the Patriots all tied for the division lead at 7-3 (if I remember correctly). I beat the Dolphins, but it was very close. Came down to Ricky Manning (my only trade was to add a good corner to go along with McGee) intercepting a pass for a touchdown in the final minute, interrupting an amazing drive by the Dolphins where they only needed a field goal to win. Now, with only a few games remaining, its between the Bills and the Patriots. I don't expect to win, but my next game is against the Browns. If I can get lucky and have the Patriots lose, I'll take the lead and hopefully will be able to hold out.

    Madden 08

    I really enjoy the game, even though it seems too easy on All-Pro (with my Buffalo Bills crushing Pittsburgh and Dallas already). The have made it easier to make the big pass, but easier to be picked off. You have to be careful. The animations and graphics on the field are pretty good in the 360 version, its a very fluid game. You do seem to fumble a lot, but that could just be my rookie running back more then anything, or the fact that I keep trying to truck through people like Urlacher and Lewis.

    Playing Madden is the only way I can figure out who is on what team and get familiar with players and teams. I always get it, so this year I will be getting it.

    The gameplay looks to be pretty solid from footage I've seen. Here is hoping that the game is just excellent.

    Madden 08

    So, unless I have been horribly misinformed, the newest edition of the Madden football franchise hits store shelves in North America tomorrow for the 360 and PS3 (I am unsure about the Wii version). I am really looking forward to this game, as they reintroduce a feature that really hurt last years next-gen effort, Owner mode. Also, the player tags like "Cannon Arm QB" really look interesting to me, giving certain players boosts in certain situations. Is anyone else looking forward to this game?
  14. I am excited for this coming season as a Raptors fan. They made a huge leap in terms of skill and talent last year, and with a full season of experience under their belts, I can see them getting better. Chris Bosh has come out as a star player, and Andrea Barnagni had a fantastic rookie season. Losing Morris Peterson hurts the team a bit though.
  15. I just thought of a real one. "Sara's Mask" by CKY.
  16. "Freya" by The Sword, because it reminds me of that horrible Lindsay Lohan movie; the song was in the movie for a strip club scene.
  17. SEGA gets a huge amount of respect from me just because of how awesome the Dreamcast was. There are some cool looking games on that list, and here is hoping that they can put out some quality games and blow me away.
  18. I don't know if everyone would agree, but "Ride On" by AC/DC is one for me.
