Going back about 3 months here. EDIT: Now that I look at the date, it's been exactly three months.

I heard an interview with Rick Petersen who was the pitching coach of the A's during that timeframe and apparently Moneyball might have been even more interesting if Sony hadn't nixed the original idea of Soderbergh which was to 30-40 people from the team and such and follow the general gist of what went on then but totally ad libbing dialogue.

It sounds like it would've been a much more free flowing almost documentary like film than what we have now.

So I'm playing the Big Ten championship as OSU(as the OC) against Michigan. Talk about lame. We just faced off as 1# vs #2 the week before, now I have to play them again. It completely devalues the rivalry game, and makes me worry about it happening in real life.

You could of probably guessed before the game even started that it would be like that.

I already knew as much lol, but seeing it actually happen(well in the game anyway) it really hit me. Although the game was actually really good, it went down to OT, it just wasn't the same. At least I can fix it by moving them into the same division, it's not so simple in real life. It makes wonder what the hell they were thinking... $$$... oh wait.

Re: Off Topic 2011

I have a few friends from Cali and they swear by In-N-Out. I've never had it because I've never been out there, but I really want to try it. I'm going to Phoenix in a couple of weeks, so I'll have to find one.

It's ok. Nothing great IMO. I went out there a couple years ago and some "collegues" out there would always say it is the greatest ever. Honestly, I think since it is such a faster pace lifestyle out there, the convenience(sp.?) of it makes it worth while. They get you "In-N-Out" pretty quickly; I was impressed.

I was pissed b/c I could not find any biscuits out there. I'm from the south dang it! Where's my BOGO Bacon Egg and Cheese!

Re: Off Topic 2011

Great, just freakin great.

You now got me craving some delicious buttermilk biscuits and heavy gravy with some giblets and small meat chunks!

And I am on my training diet routine so I can not have it.

Re: Off Topic 2011

Well, I'm 3-0 online in Madden, but it would be nice to play someone who actually punts/kicks field goals.

Week 5 of our online franchise... you about to be Dustin Colquitt'd and Ryan Succop'd to death.

Training to be a manager at work this morning in about... 12 minutes. I basically run the store already, now I actually get the title and appropriate pay rate.

It needs to be 5:00 PM Central right about now.

In other news, LA Noire sucked me back in. I'm playing from the start in B&W and reloading whenever I get a question wrong. I'm getting the full story this playthrough, dammit. Also, I finally got around to getting the 2 DLC cases I didn't have, so those will be new.

Game looks amazing in B&W too. Going from Deus Ex back to this really makes me appreciate what LA Noire did with character models and facial captures. They've set the gold standard in that regard.
