THE NEW MADDEN 2010! Playing right now! It's in the Game!

Football on any given Sunday. Except, not for you! Sorry folks-- you'll have to wait a minute.  Big up to the guys at EA Sports that hooked me up with this early!!!! Big up Ron Revog you motherfucker! I am going to crush you!!!!!

I conciously waited to play today, on this Sunday.  I'm all over it!  I'll probably spend the next 6 hours creating players.  I always create a 6'10" running back.  Go and pre-order now!  I'm certain this will be another record breaker.  Like 50 gazillion units in 6 hours. The new controls are taking me a minute--but I gotta say, it is beautiful.  I'm jonesing for the 2010 season to start.

Hank Aaron said it all...

If I could of done it again, I would of taken Barry's ball and put a diamond encrusted asterisk on it. Get all Damien Hirst. 755 still stands.

I wrote an op-ed last week for U.S. News and World Report. Feel free to read here.  I wrote the thing before Aaron spoke at Cooperstown.

Stephon Marbury-- This is Tragic.

It is like rubbernecking on the highway after a 12 car pile-up. Starbury TV.  You can't help but look.  This is some "Truman Show" shit. It is tragic to me really. There is something obviously way deeper, and possibly clinical here--

The author John Updike once said that “Celebrity is a mask that eats into the face. As soon as one is aware of being somebody, to be watched and listened to with extra interest, input ceases, and the performer goes blind and deaf in his over animation. One can either see or be seen.”

Academy Award for best Actor goes to Floyd Mayweather...

Wouldnt it make sense? Now that he see's a potentially bigger purse against Pac-man, floyd happens to get a rib "injury"...and postpones (without a new date) the Marquez fight.

Great timing. From the associatted press...

Cotto vs. Pac-Man????

Miguel Cotto versus Manny Pacquiao? Nope. These are actually promotional screen shots of EA SPORTS FIGHT NIGHT 4. Launching June 25th.

When you defeat Cotto in the game, you unlock the "Ecko Unltd. Challenge".  I'd love to see Miguel versus Manny.  That's the right test....but not until after this Saturday. Cotto will defend his World Boxing Organization title against Joshua Clottey at Madison Square Garden. I'll be there! Ringside!!!!!

The bout will mark the fourth consecutive year Cotto has fought in New York on the eve of the city's Puerto Rican Day Parade.
