Toe

Micheal Vick's play on the field has been questioned, his motivation questioned, and now this. I would not be surprised if Micheal Vick has an incredibly short leash this season. It is too bad the Falcons couldn't keep Schaub. Whoops, nevermind. The Falcons have Chris Redman as his back-up - they are relying on Vick to carry the reigns at QB.

I sometimes get those blowouts, but I never can regularly beat the computer in NHL '07 by those scores. And I am really getting into playing it online, so if anyone has the 360 version, look for desiredtoe online.

I think I'll rent this, because playing with these legendary players sounds awesome. The lack of a franchise mode really hurts though. I like the play the game and have each game mean something, and then have how I play effect the team as a whole in the present and future. When I played as a created team in Madden 06 for the XBOX and had an aging Drew Bledsoe lead my Toronto Legion to glory in 2009, I felt a connection with the team and the franchise. Without that, I can't see myself playing through a season more then once or twice.

I really can't get used to the controls for some of the first person shooters on the Wii. Especially Medal Of Honor: Vanguard. I find it incredibly difficult to manuever and shoot acurately. Really, the only games for the Wii I have enjoyed so far has been Wii Sports and Metal Slug. I haven't got around to trying Super Paper Mario yet... However, when I first got the Super Nintendo, the only game I enjoyed was Super Mario World, and for the Nintendo 64, Goldeneye. It always takes a while for great games to come out.

The Empire Strikes First was an awesome CD, one of my favourites. I bought the new Bad Religion release, but I haven't had a good chance to listen to it all the way through. I need a good road trip for that.

The Senators have moved Peter Schaefer to the Boston Bruins for Shean Donovan. This is being called a salary cap move, as it frees up $6.7 over three years, while Donovan has only one year left for roughly $900,000. TSN has an article up about the remaining free agents, and there are some good ones still available. They say that Toronto and the New York Rangers have shown interest in Micheal Peca, reminded me that Dany Markov is still available (and I don't see how he could go unsigned, he is good), and I think it's hilarious that Yashin thinks he is going to get a higher contract then those he has been offered.

Oh, and they claim to have stopped the whole goalie putting the puck into his own net thing.

That's a new screenshot from the game seen at E3.

I find Jenna Haze to be one of the hottest girls in porn. Actually, a lot of the chicks with black or brown hair, like Taylor Rain, I find to be smoking hot. Nothing against blondes, just you see so much blonde hair in porn.

I'm going with NHL 08. The skill stick adds just an amazing level of control that did not exist in other hockey games. Also, they are improving the skating so defenders don't end up just floating past the attacking players, and they are improving the AI and putting in a system where you can design your own plays.

From what I hear, the combat is still based upon action points just like in the original games. How this fits in to the game, I have no freakin' clue. I'm not bothered by the weapon degradation thing, as long as it means you have to repair or clean your weapon every once in a while. Even an AK-47 can break down from wear and tear, it just takes a lot to do it (maybe a nuclear war?). And just because things changes, it does not mean this won't be Fall Out. Remember, war never changes.

Kevin Lowe finally convinced a top free agent to come to the Oilers, signing Sheldon Souray today to a five year deal worth $27,000,000. http://www.tsn.ca/nhl/news_story/?ID=213373&hubname=

My XBOX has run perfectly. So I don't get it.

They look to be going in the right direction with this, maintaining the same feelings from the earlier games while improving everything else. As long as I get still have a character who is a porn star that is addicted to Jet, I'll be happy.

You don't have to look to Europe for football! What about the MLS? They are getting more popular now, and the quality of play is improving as well.

Now the Devils can get a capable backup...y'know, one that can hold on to win a shootout against a third-string Islander goaltender

I heard that the Red Wings were interested in Raycroft when they were having some difficulty resigning Hasek, but now that Hasek is returning I doubt it.
