Yes whether you like it or not the Jags have changed their logo to what they call, "the new symbol of the new generation." Ehh not quite. Here's the "new" jaguar head logo:

Basically it's the old logo, but more modern I guess. I feel like if you're going to release a new logo at least be more creative about it. When they hinted at a change much like the one the Seahawks did I wasn't expecting ... Read More

The 2013 MLB Hall of Fame Class

Posted on January 9, 2013 at 05:50 PM.

I am outraged. I'm angry and in need of an explanation as to why 2 of the greatest players I've ever seen play did not get into the MLB Hall of Fame. I can understand guys like Roger Clemons and Barry Bonds not getting in, but players that have no link to steroid use, no justifiable evidence for the allegations against them should be in. I think that's a fair and logical way to vote and not vote for a player in the Hall of Fame, though I'm still on the fence with the PED users not getting in issue. ... Read More

The Bowl Games Are Here

It's finally that time of year again. The Christmas trees go up and so do the hands of angry/cheering fans. Bowl Season, possibly the last one we ever see, is here and there are plenty of "how did that happen?" questions to ask. For all of this we'll look at each bowl game starting with day one. Only 12 days away!

December 15:
New Mexico Bowl: Nevada vs Arizona
So this game shouldn't be too much of a stretch to predict an Arizona win. Unfortunately I didn't get to see ... Read More

Explaining the Texans vs Jaguars Game

Posted on November 20, 2012 at 12:50 PM.

Ok there really isn't an easy way to explain this. It's hard to defend an 8-1 team going into overtime with a 1-8 team. But that's what I'm about to try and do.

First off I don't think any Texans fan was happy with that win against Jacksonville. It looked ugly, our defense looked pitiful and quite frankly the whole team just looked bad in the first half. The second half I have no problem explaining. The Texans pulled it together and out willed the Jaguars to win the game. But I think ... Read More

Texas A&M Finally Recognized

Posted on November 11, 2012 at 12:26 PM.

I just want to say from the beginning that I am biased to Texas A&M being a fan since I first learned about college football. So if you want an objective look at the game I ask that you go somewhere else to read.

Now that that's out of the way I can without a doubt say that Texas A&M has been for the past few weeks one of the most underrated teams in the country. Of course now that statement is not true but at least now I can be believed when I say it. And it has been true for a while. ... Read More

The Houston Astros: A Forgotten Legacy

Posted on October 5, 2012 at 11:00 AM.

(0)

Everyone likes to poke fun at the lovable losers in every league. The Bobcats in the NBA, the Browns in the NFL, and the Astros in the MLB. But what some people fail to remember is just how good the Astros used to be. Key word, used.

Back in the far off year of 1994, the NL Central was founded with the inaugural members being the Cardinals, Cubs, Pirates, Reds, and the Astros, with the Brewers joining them 4 years later. In the early days the Astros were contenders and even won the ... Read More

The Time for a New 2K Football Game is Now...or Soon at Least

Posted on September 18, 2012 at 09:28 PM.

(1)

2K Sports was recently handed the number one spot in basketball video games after EA's complete mishandling of NBA Live 13. Now is the perfect time to begin developing a new football game to compete with Madden.

EA's deal with the NFL ends in 2013. Will the NFL immediately say no to an extension on EA's license? No, but a 2K game that sells more than a Madden game would grab the NFL's interest. I firmly believe that if 2K Sports made a football game that played a better game of football ... Read More

Why EA Should Wait To Release NBA Live

Posted on September 8, 2012 at 11:41 AM.

(1)

I think by now most of us have seen and heard of the debacle that is the release of NBA Live 13. No E3 gameplay, no word from EA for months about it's status, a "pre-alpha" gameplay video that looked like something from NBA Live circa 2007, and a rumor of the game being a $20 digital download being the latest info on the game. With all this being said many still speculate the game to be cancelled or delayed. The main reason being, non of this is being confirmed by EA.

On top of all ... Read More

Madden 13 Nit Picking

Posted on September 4, 2012 at 01:16 AM.

Hey guys it's been about a week since Madden 13 came out and I'm already finding little things in the game that I wish would have been included but weren't. Since there are a lot I'll just go with the top 3 things that I think are missing.

3. No Soundtrack
I think this is the one that everyone wanted. I myself am not too big of a fan on the soundtracks in games but I do like to have a little background music when I'm doing roster moves for my team, or making my player. The ... Read More
