HOOOOOOOOLLLLYYYYYYYYYYYY SHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIT! Not a bad haul for the Cubs!

And... Braun. That sucks. He generally seems like a non-asshole guy. :(

His overall rating is 6.

Good, now Tulowitzki could get the 2007 NL Rookie of the Year he deserves.

Except he won't. I doubt they'll overturn any awards that he won. This isn't college football.

And even if they do, it would just be the MVP. ROY is staying

I know, wishful thinking. But even without all of this, Tulowitzki still should have won the Rookie of the Year Award.

We came out of this because the truth was on our side." -Ryan Braun

That whole speech he gave after being cleared was so damn smug. I really didn't buy it for a second and I'm surprised that you guys are surprised he's an ass. Once the rumors start coming out, there really isn't any reason to believe the player is clean.

Ryan Braun always seemed like an asshole, I'm glad that he's suspended, I think they should have given him 100 going into the next season but knowing that a guy that's juiced is out for a while is fine with me. Wouldn't be surprised to see Colon suspended soon too.

I went out to buy drumsticks today and wound up spending like $80. I got Fire Emblem: Awakening though, since I don't have many 3DS games and it's supposed to be pretty good.

And now I'm watching the old Chad Vader YouTube videos again. I can relate to it more now, but it's really just about as funny as it was.

Word is, he's DTD with a sore left hip flexor.

I really enjoyed Awakening. So much so, that I've played through 5 or 6 times.

And Chad Vader as well, that was pretty gr8

Oh right, I also forgot to mention in my last post, I consider my log poll pretty much complete since it's way over on another page now. The general results are that nobody really cares about the video game team project at the moment, half of the voters want Vicente Valtieri, and the other half is split between wanting Nashville Venom and wanting me dead.

Along with what I bought on that last trip was a Rush poster for that concert I went to and the stuff needed to actually put it on the wall.

As for Fire Emblem: Awakening, I only got to play like an hour before work, and I liked it. My only real gripe so far is a minor issue with the times the dialogue isn't fully voice-acted. I'd probably rather just have text than have the voice-acting speak in grunts and one-word bursts while the text is displaying full sentences. As for why I didn't get the game sooner, I heard it was hard to find when it was new, meaning that for Canada it would be absolutely impossible to find, and then I looked it up and found the game has a ridiculous amount of DLC, but that's not really as big of a problem as I thought it was at the time.
