Here is what I got that Joey said from WWE Raw last night:

“You want to apologize? Like nothing happened. Like you didn’t knock me on my ass in front of millions of people worldwide, and I’m gonna come down there and work with you. I’m not coming back, and now thanks to the magic of live television I’m gonna show the whole world, why for seven years in ECW I was the unscripted, uncensored, loose cannon of commentary. Six months ago, WWE called me, I didn’t call this company because I was looking for a job. I didn’t need a job. WWE called me because they had humiliated and fired…again, Jim Ross. So I get JR’s spot, and from week one, week after week I’ve got an ongoing lecture about the differences in professional wrestling and sports entertainment. I’m not allowed to say ‘pro wrestling’, I’m not allowed to say ‘wrestler’. I have to say ‘sports entertainment’ and refer to the wrestlers as ‘superstars’. I’m told to deliberant ignore the moves and the holds during the matches so I can tell stories. Well ignoring the moves and the holds is damn insulting to the athletes, the ‘wrestlers’, not the entertainers who leave their families three hundred days a year to ply their craft in that ring. Here’s the best part, because I’m not a sports entertainment storyteller I get pulled from Wrestlemania, and the reason I’m given is, is because I don’t sound like Jim Ross who’s the guy they fired in the first place. That makes sense, right? So I swallow the bitter pill, I’m a company guy. I get bumped from Wrestlemania. Then I get bumped from Backlash? I’m not good enough to call Backlash!? In ECW, I called live pay-per-views on my own, solo, no color commentators dragging me down. Wasn’t done before me, hasn’t been done since. But I’m not good enough to call Backlash because I’m not a sports entertainment storyteller. Well you know what? I am sick of sports entertainment. I am sick of male cheerleaders. I am sick of boogers and bathroom humor and semen and I am sick of our chairman. Who likes to talk about his own semen, he mocks God… he mocks God!!!!! And makes out with the divas all to feed his own insatiable ego. I am sick of sports entertainment, and most of all I am sick of you fans who actually buy into that crap! This sports entertainment circus! I never
needed this job, and I don’t want this job anymore… I QUIT!!!”

I know it is only 2 hours after the incident, but is this real? I doubt it. I think they would have cut the feed Joey was on. ECW? Wait and see.

Andrew

So I was not the sharpest crayon in the box. I left my contacts in my eyes for 3 days. This is not unusual for me. I have left my contacts in for 2 weeks at a time. This time was different… I got some type of infection in my eye… It is bad… I have to got back in a couple of minutes to get them looked at again. My eye is still bothering me, but I think this should be the last visit.

EA Canada QB details popular pigskin franchise’s debut for Nintendo’s new console; with new controller, popular football series won’t be just about pushing buttons. Exec says EA Rev games won’t be straight ports.

Electronic Arts hasn’t unveiled its full lineup of games for next month’s Electronic Entertainment Expo yet, but one title that the publisher has confirmed will make its debut at the show in playable demo form is that of it flagship franchise on a new console. The ever-popular Madden franchise gets the call for Nintendo’s next-gen console and is tentatively titled Madden Revolution. It’s important to note that the game isn’t simply titled Madden NFL 2007 for the Revolution–that’s because no gamer has seen a Madden quite like this one.

For the first time in years, development on a major console version of EA’s marquee franchise football series is being taken outside the doors of the company’s Orlando, Florida-based EA Tiburon studio. The game is instead being handled north of the border, by a special Revolution-focused development group within EA’s Burnaby, British Columbia studio.

Given that EA has dedicated a specific group to Revolution development, it stands to reason that the game will take advantage of the console’s unique capabilities. While many details will have to wait until E3 kicks off, GameSpot was given an advanced scouting report that said that the gameplay will make extensive use of the Revolution controller’s motion-sensing capabilities.

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).

Kicking the ball will be accomplished by sweeping the controller up as if it were a kicker’s leg striking the ball. A fast, level swing will make for a hard, straight kick.

The Revolution controller will also come into play when running the ball, as jerking the controller left or right will make the ball-carrier juke to either side, while shoving it straight ahead will make him stiff-arm the opposition.

Madden 2007 for Wii is going to fucking rock!!!

Andrew

“Introducing … Wii.

As in “we.”

While the code-name “Revolution” expressed our direction, Wii represents the answer.

Wii will break down that wall that separates video game players from everybody else.

Wii will put people more in touch with their games … and each other. But you’re probably asking: What does the name mean?

Wii sounds like “we,” which emphasizes this console is for everyone.

Wii can easily be remembered by people around the world, no matter what language they speak. No confusion. No need to abbreviate. Just Wii.

Wii has a distinctive “ii” spelling that symbolizes both the unique controllers and the image of people gathering to play.

And Wii, as a name and a console, brings something revolutionary to the world of video games that sets it apart from the crowd.

So that’s Wii. But now Nintendo needs you.

Because, it’s really not about you or me.

It’s about Wii.

And together, Wii will change everything.”

WE… WTF!?!

Brain Age for the Nintendo DS…

GET IT!!! I just played it for over an hour and PWN3d it. Here is the deal… I makes you think about issues at a fast rate. I am going to start playing it again. It is frickin awesome!

Andrew

First post since being in Southfield, MI. First off, I would like to say this Credit Acceptance is a GREAT program and I cannot wait to start it up.

Next… It was nice to see my wife. I have not seen her in a while and I really missed her a lot. I just wanted to be close to her. Time to catch up on my DVR.

Andrew

4:20 DUDES!!!

that is all.

Andrew

After a long and boring drive to Southfield, MI, I am FINALLY here. It took FOREVER! I did have a lot of things to listen. I listened to 4 wrestling podcasts, TWiT, diggnation, and more. So far this hotel is not worth 200 a night, but we are only paying $89.

Stupid Eastern Standard Time…

I am really lonely. It is the first time I am REALLY far away from Heather. You never know how much you love having something until it is gone.

Andrew

Well it is coming tomorrow. I am taking the long drive to Southfield, MI. I guess it is taking 7-8 hours to drive there. I will be using my 7 day trial of TomTom. I hopefully will have a link up here so my friends came track my way there. I got tons of things to listen to and jam to. This should be a great trip!

Andrew

Happy Easter!!!

Last night Heather and I went to the Schoutteet’s for Mary’s 50th birthday!!! I ended up talking to Mike, Aaron, and Charlie. We bs’ed for an hour or two and then the three left. Brian and I thought about going to see BJ’s new band. Around 12am, Brian and I went to the Eagle’s Club.

When we got there my cousin Christopher was there. I have not seen him in 4 or 5 years. I could not believe he was 21 already. It seems like yesterday he was a little kid. LOL! I ran into Tommy and talked to him for a while. It would be nice to have Paradigm back. We talked about drums and then went in to see BJ play. Crop Circle is the band BJ is in now. They rocked the house and I got a phone and needed to leave.

Brian and I headed back to his parents’ place. I got Heather and her and I left. Aaron calls me and he needs a ride… Ok… We get there and he said he broke his glasses. DUMBASS!!! I took his glasses and my mother-in-law fixed them today. He is VERY lucky I know someone who knows glasses.

The next day we meet up at Wanee farm. I guess Gpa yelled at Chris for being drunk… Ok whatever… He is of age… I guess he… Whatever… His big brother came over and yelled at him for getting drunk. In a way, I would like to explain to him about what happened, but it is not my business. I mean the kid has not drank anything in a long time and just wanted to be around ‘normal’ people. But, if you are old enough to die for our country, you are old enough to have a beer or two. Only thing I would have changed is making him go home when we did. He would have been ok and no one would have known about him drinking.

All in all it was an interesting time in Kewanee. I need a beer…

Andrew

Nope… It is on the 17th.

Good Friday is today. Today is the day Jesus died for our sins. I would go into details, but I think most people know the story/history.

In keeping with Blizzard’s aggressive stance against cheating in World of Warcraft, we have since patch 1.10 banned over 5400 accounts and suspended 10700 more for participating in activities that violate the game’s Terms of Use, including using third-party programs to farm gold and items. Such actions can severely impact the economy of a realm and the overall game enjoyment for all players.

We will continue to aggressively monitor all World of Warcraft realms in order to protect the service and its players from the harmful effects of cheating. Please note that selling World of Warcraft content, such as gold, items, and characters, can result in a permanent ban of the involved accounts from World of Warcraft.

Many account closures come as the direct result of tips reported to our GMs in game or emailed to hacks@blizzard.com by legitimate World of Warcraft players. If you suspect that a World of Warcraft player is using an illegal third-party program to farm gold or items, or is otherwise violating our Terms of Use, please report the suspected infraction via one of the means listed above. All reports will be investigated, and those that prove false will not result in corrective action.

Thank you for your continued support, and good luck with your adventures in Azeroth!
