    Re: My New Year's Resolution - What's yours?

    My resolution is to spend less time on the road and more time with family and friends. This music business has grabbed me by the throat and it really pulled me away from all the ones I love.

    I'd also like to get back into doing charity work. I used to do a huge amount of charity work when I was younger, so I'd like to continue. Nothing better than seeing a smile on the faces of those who aren't as lucky as us.

    P.S I started by donating all the money I was given at Christmas! Feels good!

      Hey, thats cool man.

      As for me, i'd like to get into gaming a little more. I think I played like six or seven new games this year, if that.

      I'd like to get into better shape, but thats every years resolution. Why not another try?

      Finish my associates degree and move towards my bachelors.

      Take my son to an MLB game. He'll be seven in May, so I think nows the time for his first game.

      I'd also like to be a better person, perhaps a little less judgemental, but this world makes it soooo tough sometimes.

        That's commendable. I never donate money really though, I read too many stories of money given to charities never reaching their intended targets. I've offered to volunteer my time at some places but most refuse, they say they have plenty of help from the out of work folks.

                    1) Bust *** at work to get promoted from financial analyst to senion financial analyst. I guess this means, I probably shouldn't be on OS right now, but it's dead right now.

                    2) Once the gym at work opens, I'd like to start working out at least semi-regularly.

                    3) Spend as much time with my 7 month old daughter as possible

                    4) Try once again to learn how to play guitar

                      1) Work as hard as I can this summer at my internship so I can make a good enough impression to continue an occupation in sports.

                      2) Get back into the gym to lift and play ball again. (fall videogames killed that lol)

                      3) Talk to my parents more often when I'm away at college.

                        Get back to my workout routine that went in the crapper once I started coaching basketball.

                        Eat better - cut down on red meat and things high in cholesterol.

                              I think mine is going to be to give up video games. Strange as it may seems posting a resolution like that on this site, I realized that I'm never happy with a sports video game (I don't play non-sports games). None of them keep my interest for more than a month or two. Sure, I'll play the game once or twice a week but it's more out of hope that I'll fall in love with the game than it is me playing it because I truly want to. It's more like I feel the need to justify my $500 Xbox 360 and $65 video game. I've shut my 360 off mid-game on NBA and CH2k8 at least five times in the last week. I simply don't have fun playing these games. Something will come along like a roster project from OS or a patch to keep my interest for a few more weeks but eventually I'll put the game on my shelf and file it under the "In the long run I did not enjoy this game," category.

                              It's the same old cycle since the Nex-Gen hit. "Wait til next year", "We'll add this in the next version", etc etc. Like nearly every other year before, right now my interest is just about gone in the two basketball titles (pro and college) and I'm eagerly waiting MLB2k8. But I know I'll be disappointed by it, just like I was with every 360 video game. MLB2k8 will still be "a year away" so then I'll start anticipating NCAA Football '09 which is sure to be a terrible game just like this year's.

                              Then I wait for the 2K basketball titles which probably pain me the most. 2K puts in such hard work and the games are SO close to being amazing that it kills me even more. I felt CH2k8 was the best sports game I'd ever played for the first month I owned it. Then, like always, the glitches and game play issues started annoying me more and more. The speed issues, the recruiting in legacy, the fact that guards can't get shots off in the paint realistically, etc.

                              It all adds up and seems like these core items are never fixed. So my resolution is to not buy a single sports game in the calender year of 2008. I'm sure I'll fail miserably when the MLB2K board starts buzzing like crazy in two months, but I'll try nonetheless. I'll try not to get caught up in the pre-release hoopla and the honeymoon period because I know by May I'll have stopped playing MLB2k8 anyway, disappointed and waiting til next year.
