Min RTW – Police Raid Story

Chase stories, everyone’s got them. But I could listen to this dude all day.

Are you SERIOUS?!?

From yahoo! sports:

The Redskins run the worst trick play anyone’s ever seen
By MJD

The play you are about to see actually happened last night. It might look more like the random, senseless motions on one of those old, buzzing, electric football games, but I assure you, this was real.
The Washington Redskins were being beaten soundly by the New York Giants last night, and had a chance to get on the scoreboard just before halftime. Head coach Jim Zorn opted against the field goal, and instead ran this “trick play.” I guess it sort of worked, because it did catch everyone by surprise, but only in the sense that no one ever dreamed it was possible to execute a play that failed this colossally.

2009 has been a bitch, especially for the Deadskins. I’m so glad I was out west where I couldn’t watch this fiasco. Wow. Maybe we can will get a new coach and team to go along with that new general manager we just got. What a mess.

UPDATE: As I was posting this I got an email from the Skin’s box office. For “whatever reason”, a bunch of seats all over the stadium are now available for the home game against Dallas on Sunday. I may have to buy one of those $44, 50 yard line spots just so I can throw snowballs at both teams.

What snow?

Dragon’s Lair

I probably spent the equivalent of $250,000 in quarters trying to beat this game in the arcade (remember those?). Due to a lack of funding in the 4th grade, I was unable to complete this project back in 1983.

For those of you not familiar with this game, it featured animation created by former Disney animator Don Bluth. It was on a laserdisc so it was fully animated, instead of most games at that time which were still sprite based. Instead of controlling “Dirk the Daring” directly, you had to control the reflexes of the character and a short animation would play for correct or incorrect choices. It was mad frustrating since you’d die constantly and it was one of the first arcade games that cost $.50. So it was an expensive endeavor.

Now it’s out for the iPhone. Time to finish this.

Get it here.
