The difference is that you don't need to play video games at a top level to be allowed to even play them, you just buy yourself a console, a game, and start playing. For the most part, to play sports you have to be physically capable of playing, and then you need to have an opportunity to play, either at a school or

No, there are plenty of barriers to playing sports. If you're a girl, how many high schools or colleges can you go to that have a girl's football program? If you're 60 years old do you think it's a good idea to play tackle football? If you're in a wheelchair, do you think you have a lot of opportunities to play

Your argument doesn't really hold up. A lot of women enjoy watching sports but have very few outlets to actually play, especially a sport like football. Football is also a very dangerous sport, and many people don't want to take the risk of getting concussed or blowing their knee out. Many older people like to watch

I kind of feel bad for saying this, but I think they do need to increase speeds. When I was growing up they would set new track records every year, and in the back of my mind I know they aren't going as fast as they used to, which kind of diminishes Indy for me.

I've never once tuned into a sporting event I had no previous interest in because I noticed that it drew a big crowd on TV...

I watched some of this on the History Channel. I'm a bit surprised these cars sold for as much as they did. Yes, most of them were basically "new" with extremely low mileage, but they had essentially been left to rot for 50+ years.

Have you ever considered publishing a book of your sketch work? The illustrations you do on Overhaulin' are pretty amazing.

I'd understand your point if you were talking about the actual race, but you're complaining about not seeing the debrief. While I know the ratings for the America's Cup are hardly noteworthy, I doubt they're much better for an F1 debrief. As for them making a big mess of the weekend ... I was able to see everything I

In fairness to NBC, the America's Cup was supposed to be over by now, but postponements have pushed the regatta further into the month. And if they had shown the debrief instead of the potential series-ending race they would have gotten just as much grief.

I completely agree with you. I'm 39 years old and I've never had any interest in the GTA games. My adult friends have no interest in the GTA games. The teenagers that I know, though, love them. I don't think there's anything wrong with having some juvenile fun once in a while, but I do think the GTA series gets way

Colony Wars on the original Playstation was my favorite. It's sad that they haven't done anything with that franchise in what will soon be three console generations.

Yeah, but that's a call back to the original Audi Coupe GT, which is the inspiration for this car.

Confirmed by who, Microsoft? The same people who change the features of the Xbox One every week? I wouldn't hold my breath if I were you. And if it's not integrated - as in a critical part of the functionality of the machine - then it's not part of the system, and if the system can function just fine without it than

And you know that to be completely true and not just hype because you already have one? I don't think so. It's yet to be seen if every Xbox One game will be available as a download on the same day/date as a retail version, and how they'll be priced. You may find that you're going to need that Blu-ray drive.

All of this reminds me of the days when Microsoft claimed Windows couldn't work without Internet Explorer. How'd that turn out...?

Except they're using a Blu-ray drive because of the massive amount of data they can get on one disc, not to provide you with a Blu-ray movie player. So if you delete the Blu-ray drive you'd have an Xbox One that's incapable of playing Xbox One games, whereas if you got rid of the Kinect you'd probably still have an

Great looking car, but I don't understand why they went with that odd white for the show model. It just looks cheap.

Unfortunately he is. He didn't play in a big media market. He didn't play with a lot of style or pizzazz. He was never at the center of any kind of controversy or scandal. He just played ball, and unfortunately that's not enough for a lot of people. For me, though, he's always been the greatest, ever since the day I

I don't want to complain about free games because after all they are free, but so far I've either already had every game they've offered or have had zero interest in the ones I didn't already have. If they continue this program beyond the new year, perhaps they could consider giving every Gold subscriber tokens good
