franchise is super boring for madden though i havent played since 11. i like taking shitty teams and making them decent and then good, which is easy in fifa and nhl with so many younger players available in all the different leagues. but in madden i only have the one pool of already-nfl players and draft classes arent…

huh i was even gonna say "regular ass cheerios" well ok then

the updated challenges that fifa has are really great and usually task you with repeating something amazing that happened over the last few days or with rewriting what happened. but based on the trophy/achievement lists of my friends who play fifa not everyone has tried it, which i don't get. they're really fun and…

then i will try reading ada or ardor next.

lolita is a great fucking book about a man obsessed and consumed by love, though frankly most people know just enough about it to not need to ask and look at you with a sneer if you're carrying it around anyway.

"stream-of-consciousness" is pretty much the most concise way to describe modernist lit. to the lighthouse is a great book (obviously just imo) and a staple of the genre, which i would guess is more what rubbed you the wrong way than the actual novel itself.

lolita is a great piece of fiction and probably contains the most beautifully constructed sentences in english.

wouldnt have been so awkward had ea not bizarrely rendered all those photorealistic dicks for each player in the top leagues

parks and rec is the best show on television and its third season is one of my favorite seasons of anything ever, welp bye kotaku

i dont remember too many deets of the ps2 game primal but it sounds a lot like the ps2 game primal.

i liked that in consecutive quotes the executive producer said "the ability to see her as human is even more enticing," then "she is literally turned into a cornered animal." but i might just be getting turdy that he twice used "literally" in that wrong way that people do when they mean the complete fuckin opposite of…

ha ha the ep of crystal dynamics told a dude from kotaku that "they attempt to rape her" and it's "a huge step in her evolution" but whoops i guess the executive fuckin producer was actually completely wrong about everything. lara your evolution nooo

who are the jesus crap people. are they the ones holding lara

what i should have posted........was nothing

haha only a single paragraph between "the ability to see her as more human now is so great" and "she is literally turned into a cornered animal."

prescient topic for the column this week considering the nevada state athletic commission pretty much gave dana the de facto top combat sport last night

arum wasn't even trying after the fight, really. feigned shock really poorly and then literally said "im gonna make a lot of money on the rematch" or whatever. someone from espn even said that bradley's corner had the fight 118-110 or so for pac.

i remember hand balls in most recently, i think, fifa 06, and i really liked those calls. they happened just often enough to not be really intrusive.

ha ha sports, am i right???? that guy over there gets it

i dunno, curt schilling was pretty much the only guy from the mid 2000s red sox that I actually liked and would have liked to play for my home team. he was probably one of the more respected players in the majors before retiring.
