Revolution = Wii

Wii is the new name for the Revolution. Nintendo's explanation of why makes sense, but I'm not sure what to make of it. Wii or Revolution, it'll be a bitchin' console either way.

Here's the explanation

Madden + Revolution = Crazy Delicious!

Players will hike the ball by mimicking a quarterback receiving the ball from the center, and then pass it to a receiver by making a throwing gesture with the free-hand controller. The faster the passing motion, the more of a bullet pass it becomes (in previous Madden editions, bullet passes were made by holding the passing button down longer).

more revolution news...

Last week, a rumor hit the net claiming that the Nintendo Revolution's nunchaku controller features a built-inaccelerometerr allowing it to sense it being tilted left or right, or being moved up, down, left, right and in a number of other directions as well.

NEEERRRRRRRRRRDD!

So, I don't know if you all heard about the Bears latest aquisition, DB Ricky Manning Jr., getting arrested for assault the day he signed his contract. But I guess this wasn't your typical altercation. Apparently, Manning and his crew beat a Denny's patron unconscious after he complained to the manager that the group was making fun of him for working on a laptop, calling him 'a geek or a nerd'. Unbelievable.

revolution baby!

for you crazy Lost fans...

From the producers of Lost...

We're involved in a project which is going to involve the internet that's going to start in May. But you're gonna have to watch the show, and not just the show, but what happens in between the show--between the acts of the show--fairly carefully in order to sort of begin the path in what we're calling an experience. And this internet experience will acutally be launched during one of the shows in May, and will be a pathway that will lead to a lot of information about the show that we're not gonna get to on the show. But its not just behind the scene stuff either. Its like, real mythology, cool story telling; which will hopefully in some degree satisfy the desire for new material for Lost over the summer. During that period of time when the show is down before we start the next season, were actually going to be telling some Lost stories.

Craziest Sports Story.. Ever!

Alfonso Soriano inadvertently saves a life

To any of the math people out there, could we get some kind of breakdown on the odds of this happening? My uneducated guess is 1 in 104 bleglock.

The Warmup to The Final Countdown

Dig this unbelievably funny cover of Europe's "The Final Countdown", being performed for what appears to be a sound check for a county fair. Note the roadie in the hot pink shorts who comes in, confirms the crappyness of the sound coming out of the speaker, and walks off stage.

Monkee Bizness

a couple things to note:
1. the monkey waits and looks as if he is saying 'are you reading camera?'
2. the monkey holds onto the tail as long as possible

double edit: Horse hit it on the nose, it is a Canadian comedy show called Trailor Park Boys. A Canadian here on my project pointed it out to me.

edit: Found it already on youtube.. Looks like it's from a skit show (and judging from the accent, a Canadian one). Anyone know where this comes from? At any rate.. enjoy, courtesy of Dagan.

lol, smelf-smarted..

MBK news

Margarita Bicep King (MBK, derived from an anagram for Patrick, Maggie, and Brian) debuted this past weekend at the Deer Grove orienteering meet. MBK placed 7th overall in the Orange course, despite several setbacks. Maggie, a 25 year old editor and the only female of MBK, dropped out the day of the race due to a throat and sinus infection. Patrick, the oldest member of MBK, was appearing in his first race and was tasked with reading the map. "I think Pat did a good job especially it being his first time," said Brian, the registered team captain. "We were a little shaky in the beginning, but things started to come together after the first few controls." Quick decision making and cunning running led to an impressive first outing for MBK, who will only be looking to improve in the standings.

What up girls?!

Greetings from the southwest,

How are all y'all doing?

I'm about to go to San Diego with the National Honors Society kids this weekend. Oooh, fun! Did we ever get taken to San Diego?!

Anyway, I'm back in my house and the old phone number is operational. And, the best email to reach me is jkinney@aznsa.com

I'll talk to you soon,
jk

p.s. I got an iPod recently, mainly because of ABC's incessant pestering on the subject. It's so awesome! Especially while ripped. Shuffle that shit for me baby!

2006 Bears Schedule Announced

Chiggidy check it out. Looks pretty cake to me. Also, 2 monday nighters and a sunday nighter against probably the most formidable opponent on the schedule, the Seahawks.

Baseball Payrolls...Gone 'Fission with the "W"

If the states (team franchises) that make up the United States of Baseball (MLB) pay this much money per year to their players, just on salary alone, I wonder what the gross revenue is combined for all those teams...

Also, the US announces it's gonna consolidate all of the plutonium that presently exists in the US to a single site which has yet to be built, while simultaneously designing and building new nuclear weapons, and all the while getting rid of the nukes that have been stockpiled in warehouses since the Cold War, even though they're still definitely nuclear bombs. This is being done for security purposes, claims the administration; "We must have nuke-ular weapons if we want to keep being number 1," says Bush. "It's about determinance." What the President of the Unites States of America meant to say was deterrence. Meanwhile, it appears that some facilities currently in the possesion of plutonium, in the administration's opinion, would not be able to repel a terrorist attack. So the plan is to get all the plutonim out of there and put it all in one place, that hasn't been built yet. That is some sound thinking, which we have all come to expect from the Bush team. It reminds me of something, a saying that makes sense, and is universally applicable...what is it...wait for it...oh yeah. "Never put all of your eggs in one basket." And these are Nuclear eggs. Even a dope like Bush can understand that. Or can he?

This announcement comes at a time when we are pressuring the UN to step in and sanction Iran for its nuclear ambitions. Wasn't one of Bush's main pre-election talking points the danger of sending "mixed messages" to the world...? Something about a sign of weakness...ah fuck it.

I seriously am about to have a cerebral hemmorhage.

Bulls - Vying for a Playoff Spot

With last night's kick ass victory over the faltering Pacers, the Bulls are a mere half-game out of the last playoff spot in the East. The Sixers currently hold that spot, but could loose it tonight when they play.. the Bulls! The game is in Philly, and the two teams will play again on Saturday at the United Center. With only 8 regular season games left for the Bulls, these next two could very likely determine whether or not there will be a post season for the West-Siders.

A Cool Vid from the White Sox Home Opener, Despite the Overt Patriotism

And for some reason when I try to create a post from my mac my only options are the spellcheck button and the "add image" button, so I couldn't create that as a hyperlink. So just cut and paste, la lazy muthafucka.

EDIT: I put the embedded player up in that shizz. And in case it doesn't work, here's the link. GO USA! -Horse

NYT - New Design

The New York Times has a undergone a design makeover. Looks pretty kick-ass to me. Come to think of it, its pretty similar to what The Onion is lookin like these days.

Here's a note from the editor about the new layout, and other changes to the site.
