The solution... turn video gaming into an olympic sport (summer and winter) then little Jimmy's parents will force him to play his video games as an extracurricular activity. C'mon parents are forcing their kids to play sports and practice piano for 12 hours a day. To tell you the truth I am more impressed with a 12 year old who can go undefeated on HALO 2 online than I am with a 250 lb. varsity football player who wins the big game for his high school. Fuck, chess is a game and when that little asian boy gets his USCF rating up to 2000 he's hailed as a genius but if another little asian boy is rated as the best HALO 2 player online his parents will tell him "good, now there's no reason for you to play anymore." then go off and sell the poor little bastard's X BOX. What I am trying to get at is that einstein was right everything is relative. 12 year old boy has a passion for video games and aspires to be the best gamer on the net he has an addiction but if that same 12 year old boy were to dedicate 12 hours a day to become a professional football player he's defined as passionate, determined, and driven.

Silencets: It was a great idea. Just another step in the overarcing master plan off JT...we little people wouldn't understand....
Posted 07/06/08 at 08:35am
Jack Wessels: Yeah I knew that part. I'm just amazed at whatever thought process led him to think that was a good idea.

Posted 07/05/08 at 03:27pm
