Contenders ready!
There’s a bit of Gladiator mania taking place on Sky One right now, to co-incide with the start of the quarter-finals (I’m just after enjoying seeing both men winning on Pyramid and Oblivion being told off!) - but it’s not the only confrontation that’s taking place right now!
A few of you probably know MLG Orlando is taking place right now. The only reason I’m watching it though, it because there’s very little else to watch on TV or online! The rules still annoy me, what with the Halo guys playing Halo 2.5 rather than Halo 3, and the Vegas 2 guys sort of playing CoD4 style - because they eliminate the use of cover! Why they change so many core values of the games to better accomodate their players who can’t be bothered changing how they play?!
There was also a lot of competition with regards to American motor racing last night. There was probably more competition between the relevant racing series than there was in them! Both the NASCAR at Chicagoland and the IRL at Nashville were running simultaneously at one point. By the time I realised that and tuned into the IRL, it was red-flagged for rain and about 10 minutes later, the race was called ![]()
It doesn’t help when the IRL race review videos fail in comparison to others, primarily the NASCAR.com race rewind! Well, actually that seems to be failing recently after they switched from using Windows Media Player to a fancy Flash thingy to play videos!
Hmmm, I had a few more things in mind to mention when I first started writing, but listening to The Riot’s live video show right now is making me forget
PS: Oh yea, I almost forgot about the RPWS, which is entering the final stretch to the end of the season!

Baby Bear does not like it when there are no more rants... Poopy.
