... Credit where credit is due, they finally got one right.
Another palate-cleansing blog, cuz I don't have time for a real one.
If you haven't checked out the hero voting thing the Gamespot's been putting on lately, you really should. It's actually pretty awesome and I'm having fun with it. You'll definitely find out who shares your gaming (and other) sensibilities and get to talk a little trash.
I see rampant, hilarious fanboyism getting to a fever pitch as the rounds whittle down and I even see myself getting a little dander up with sackboy poised to beat the great Bo Jackson in round one. The youngin's are killin' us I tells ya!
Let's put it this way: If 'Sister Christian' didn't take it's proper turn as your favorite song of all time, you probably are too young to understand what it was like to live in a golden age of double-base drum kits, double-decker limo's, Howard Cosell, fearing nuclear Armageddon (Oh to have that back! It was sooo simple then!) Ronald Reagan and Redskin superiority. And bad hair! Yeah! Lots and lots of really bad hair... Although that does seem to be coming back...
Um... Where was I? There was a point around here somewhere...
OH YEAH!
Bo Jackson.
He was great. And that Monday Night Football game when he totally trucked Brian Bozworth on one touchdown and ran up the tunnel - just kept on going, he did - after scoring that other touchdown? That was so cool!
And you couldn't tackle him in Tecmo Bowl. Everybody just bounced off! Which made you mad if you weren't the Raiders.
So he's my champ.
Check out my bracket to the left and see just how right I am!
And check out the All Time Greatest Hero thing.
You'll see.
MOTO-ring! What's your price for flight? In finding mister right!...

Walter Payton! OMFG how can U even say Bo Jackson. Bo WUZ for NOOBS who couldn't play Tecmo. And Kevin Butler could kick a field goal from the 20. His OWN 20.
Anyway...some of these matchups are ridiculous I think. Now it's the Halo guy versus two iconic characters from years gone by! Like they even stand a chance. They don't even know who Bub and Bob are, so how can they vote against him?
*Edit* Oh wait, Bub and Bob are winnin'! Well ok then.
He also believes Halo voters are still booger-eating screen-lickers and that although Star Wars is completely played out, Halo can't touch it, Halo's mythos is completely derivative and Halo IS NOT the next Star Wars (or Star Trek for that matter). He does feel it's a fine FPS, though.
eggmcmuff also informs me that he is in fasting and prayer during his forced sabbatical in hopes that the little bastard who ratted him out summarily dies from genital herpes. That is all.
Genital herpes? Infecting a Halo fan? Only if they get it from a toilet seat...
