Roll Tide

Bama takes down Auburn in the Iron Bowl last night, 36-0, ending a 6-game streak in the series for the Tigers.

A few miles southeast of Tuscaloosa, Florida tramples a decent Seminole team.

If you want to see the two best teams in college football, they play next Saturday in Atlanta.

Politicians

Watching True Blood the other night, a quote from Terry, the war veteran, stated it perfectly. He said, "I can't listen to politicians. If I do, I'll have a seizure." That's how I feel. Let's talk about football, gaming, lower gas prices or naked chicks. I've stopped watching the news. The election is over, but not really. This jazz is still all over the news. Who needs a break?

The Future's So Bright...

ART of WAR, 2old2play's premier GEARS clan, celebrates its 2nd Year within the hallowed surrounds of this most excellent gaming communtiy. Tremendous thanks goes to the AOW staff and membership, as well as Doodi and Dsmooth for their effort in creating and managing this community. I know what its like behind the curtain, so many thanks gents.

As GEARS of WAR 2  launches, ART of WAR says goodbye to GEARS 1 and hello to the much anticipated sequel. Since November of 2006, MONDAY NIGHT GEARS has been etched on our calendars and it will continue to be our clan night and our open invitation for 2old2play to join us on Sera.

The past two years have been exciting and rewarding. Here's to another.

CLIFFYB & THE NEW YORKER

Alright Gears and gaming fans. Cliff B of Epic has an outstanding interview running, in of all places, the esteemed New Yorker.

Check it out: www.newyorker.com/reporting/2008/11/03/081103fa_fact_bissell

Here are a few quotes:

"He could have been either a boyish Dolce & Gabbana model or a small-town weed dealer." (the writer speaking to Cliffs sense of fashion)

"Ten feet away was a red Hummer H3. Nearby was a Lotus Elise, and next to it a pumpkin-orange Porsche." (the Epic parking lot)

“If you go back and play the majority of old games, they really aren’t very good.” (Cliff on gaming's past)

“I was never geeky enough for the geeks and I was never cool enough for the cool people. I’ve always been in that weird purgatory.” (CliffyB on his personality at the core of Gears)

For those who don't know, the New Yorker has been in print since 1925 and has long been a source for commentary on pop culture.
