    Let me explain that last figure in the voice of John Madden:

    Ok, so you start with your No. 25 rectangle guy *circles* and hand the code off to the can-lookin' No.26 *arrow to 'X'*

    Now over here *draws circle* ya got No.22 wide open, but instead 26 runs the route through this group here. *arrow* That's when you get a couple servers involved and the defensive line steps in-- it really becomes a mess all right in here *scribbles* as you can tell by the cloud.

    But all in all, I think it was a smart play, I mean it's all about the game, and as you can see, that's just what's happening here.

    In other news, Sony shoots themselves in the foot by requiring the tomatoes to be Sony brand ProMatoDuos (TM), thus rendering useless all the standard tomatoes that everyone already has. #sonyinteractivetvpatentps3

    Personally, I hope this technology can be utilized for use in "Mystery Science Theater 3000: The Video Game"
