This is going to be a big madness. Due to recent excitement, we’ve got to catch up three weeks worth.
GAME: Gamers With Jobs featured a game a while back called Ether Cannon. It’s Asteroids with pretty visuals, concussion visuals.
PICS: Ever heard of the website PostSecret? Gamers With Jobs (again) started the same thing with games. [...]

In my hands…
July 17th, 2007 · 3 Comments · Gaming, Sports
The college football season starts right now!
(actually, it starts in about an hour, after dinner and the kids are bathed. So almost now)
Update: Okay, I’ve been able to put a couple hours in so far. One huge glaring problem I have is the absence of the “Create-a-school.” I was aware that this feature was left [...]
Blogging update
November 13th, 2006 · 4 Comments · Asides, Sports
If you’re a sports fan (more specifically a college football fan), you’re aware of a little game this weekend (just look at the countdown in the middle of this page. It’s been there for over a month.). That’s right, the Ohio State versus Michigan game is HUGE. HUGE is actually the understatement of the century. [...]

Gilbert Arenas will own you
October 13th, 2006 · 1 Comment · Sports
I’m still working on a larger post on this topic, but this was too rich to pass up. If you’re an NBA fan, you know who Gilbert Arenas is. If you’re not a fan, he can be described as a guy who’s seen as a little eccentric (maybe old-fashioned) and is pretty grounded, considering his [...]
360 Demo Thursdays (NBA 2K7)
September 28th, 2006 · 4 Comments · Gaming, Sports
Here’s a new thing I’m gonna try. Each week I’ll try out a new demo from Xbox Live and give my impressions. This week’s demo is NBA 2K7 by 2K Sports. The demo is a 4-minute quarter of Miami Heat and the Dallas Mavericks. No frills, just the game.
It’s been a while since I [...]
Buckeye Blogging, OSU vs. Texas
September 9th, 2006 · 2 Comments · Sports
I’m not blogging here about the Ohio State football games, as I know have a dedicated OSU Sports blog, so you can check that out here.
All you need to know is that OSU worked Texas over, with impunity.
Final Score:
Ohio State: 24
Texas: 7

Ultimate Baseball Online – First Impressions
July 30th, 2006 · 35 Comments · Gaming, Sports
Even though I mentioned that I had downloaded Ultimate Baseball Online months ago, it wasn’t until this weekend that I actually had a chance to play it. I must admit, though, that I haven’t played a video baseball game in a long time. I think I played a little MVP 2003, but that was only [...]
Presenting the Men of the Scarlet and Gray
July 6th, 2006 · No Comments · Sports
If you’ve been reading buttonmashing.com for longer than a few months, you’ll know that I’m a big sports fan. “Big” is actually an understatement. I love sports. Interspersed between my incoherent rants and ramblings about video games you’ve probably noticed mention of the “Men of the Scarlet and Gray”. Men of the Scarlet and Gray [...]
My prediction… *updated*
February 5th, 2006 · 3 Comments · Sports
Seattle beats Pittsburgh by 4, 35-31. I’ve been wrong before.
If I was a betting man, however, I’d take Seattle and the points. It’s a good thing I’m not a betting man.
True Swing Golf, again
February 3rd, 2006 · 1 Comment · Gaming, Sports
Thanks to Bill, now I’ll have to rethink my feelings on True Swing Golf. He says it’s a blast. He also notes what other reviewers have pointed out – you can’t have a bad swing. That sounds like bad design. Maybe it is, but it isn’t a deal breaker:
Here’s the strange thing, though: it’s almost [...]
