Stolen Summer Distraction

Posted 07-09-2011 at 01:47 PM by Fetter21
This week the US lost to Sweden in women’s soccer, Mexico is all but eliminated from Copa America, and the Seattle Storm are the defending champions of the WNBA. These are all things that I only know because American sports have hit a new all time low. We are now back in a place where baseball is our rock that we cling to for sporting entertainment, and that’s just not a fun place to be.

It’s been said countless times that what when players go on strike or in this case when owners...

Speed Kills

In football they say that speed kills, and right now it’s speed that is killing the Oakland Raiders. Unfortunately for the franchise Al Davis seems to be too slow to realize that everyone in the NFL is fast and some things are more important than how fast someone can run the 40.

The Raiders have been known for surprising people with their first round picks, but this year they have outdone even themselves. By picking Darrius Heyward-Bey with Michael Crabtree...

The Show vs. Xbox Live

Posted 04-12-2009 at 09:47 PM by Fetter21
Sitting on my couch enjoying the first full weekend of baseball this season, I got a bit of an itch for a little baseball gaming. However the dilemma in this for me is the fact that I don’t own a baseball game. Sure I could go out and purchase one, but then again with the 360 being my only console I’ve only got one option, MLB 2k9. Now baseball is not at the top of my list of favorite sports, so generally when I get the initial itch I ignore it it’ll go away. Avoidance has worked thus far, and I’m...

Is Franchise Mode for the Young?

Posted 04-08-2009 at 09:01 PM by Fetter21
Is it just me, or is franchise mode a game mode for the young? I remember I use to love playing franchise mode, ever year I would look forward to taking the Raiders multiple seasons deep, building and developing my team. But over the last few years it seems that I enjoy playing my franchise mode in Madden less and less.

After reading that franchise blog about Madden, I suppose I should be stoked about a new upgrade to the Madden series and be excited about getting back into the franchise...

Return to 2k5

Posted 04-04-2009 at 12:10 PM by Fetter21
All of the debate I keep seeing over how great NFL 2k5 was and how horrible the Madden series is made me decide it was time to pop 2k5 in and take a stroll down memory lane. Here are some of the things I found notable in my experience.

The Good
PRESENTATION: Obviously this was something I still remembered was much better than the current football games, but playing it just reminded me of how amazing it was. NFL 2k5 really had seemingly come as close to presentation perfection...
