cool little freeware game i found

shift is to use your current weapon; unarmed you punch; takes 2 hits to knock out an enemy; if you punch them from behind you instead strangle them and kill instantly. armed it fires your assault rifle. you also punch when you want to activate or deactivate switches, or get people to follow you/stop following you.

hold down ctrl to sidestep.

z either primes a grenade and released, throws it if you're unarmed, or reloads your rifle; careful; unlike in counterstrike; once you reload, you lose whatever bullets are in the current clip.

x switches between rifle and bare hands.

instructions are in japanese, but it's not too hard to follow.

YouTube - jump on it

while looking around on orlandomagic.com for new dwight howard wallpaper, i was surprised to find out they were offering 25% off online purchases, and that one of the dwight howard jerseys was on sale for 19. too bad all of them were sold out :D

anyways, on the wallpaper page, i was surprised to see how they had a special section for former orlando magic "alumn" as they liked to call it; ben wallace, tracy mcgrady, shaq, horace grant, etc, ewing(when did HE play for them?) all here. granted, a couple of them blossomed AFTER they left or won championships elsewhere(ben*cough*shaq), but i liked that special touch; no other team has respected their former great players like that.

hopefully, dwight won't have to end up in that section, because he'll win one in orlando.

espn asks a blogger:

"What would it take for you to get a tattoo of the Warriors' logo on your chest?

Guess who was the head coach of the Warriors the last time they made the playoffs? (Hint: It wasn't Mike Montgomery, Eric Musselman, Brian Winters, Dave Cowens, Garry St. Jean, PJ Carlesimo, Rick Adelman, or even Bob "NBA Cares" Lanier.)

That's right: Don Nelson. Nellieball is back in the Bay Area and Warriors Nation is thinking playoffs. A first-round playoff sweep? We're Warriors fans -- we'll take it!

And that tattoo of the Warriors logo? We're the most loyal fans in the entire NBA -- we each already sport more of those than all of Allen Iverson's tats combined. "Unstoppable baby!"

• Atma Brother No. 1 and Fantasy Junkie of Golden State of Mind"

lol...

i agree; most bay area people would be MORE than happy to see the warriors get swept in the 1st round of the playoffs.

and 2nd on the "most loyal fans in the entire NBA." takes a lotta nerve to be a warriors fan.

(i would like to add seeing ike make this his breakthrough year as an all-around post player would really be nice)

these should make your day...

"There has been no sign of the ninjas."

this is awesome on so many roflcopter levels. watch the video and see how fast they move.

but why would they crash a truck in order to do this? ninjas don't loot. seems more like pirates posing as ninjas. UNLESS... they were ninjas posing AS pirates posing as ninjas.

are you a bad enough dude to rescue the ATM?

some commando and spaceballs clips; i should rewatch both of these movies; i fondly remember spaceballs, not so much commando aside from the very cheesy line arnold says at the end of the movie(let off some steam, bennett)

commando trailer

let off some steam, bennett

lol no reloading?

spaceballs - ludicrous speed

we're at now now

i lost the bleeps the sweeps and the creeps

old news, but you stumble unto what you stumble:

of course, i wouldn't take it for word; i'll probably look to see if there's a legit article on ncbi on friday...

quiz on friday.

i realize i usually don't link to really good football videos on youtube.

that's cause i usually don't watch them.

well, first time for everything huh?

i like these two:

nice video of ol skool nfl tackles

the best stiff arm you're ever going to see

i don't even know why i dislike drew bledsoe so much. but eh; he's sackbait.

i wonder how long til t.o. explodes. anybody wanna make a call as to his next outragous outburst? i say 2 weeks if things keep going the way they go.

3 blocks in one game i think...

can't remember all of them, but 1 of them was on terrance coming over to help. another might've been on jon, can't remember the 3rd. and i need to improve my endurance. i know i can rebound a lot better.

i rewatched the youtube clip on how bill russell guards two players, and then some ben wallace video. there's a lotta good things they do right there that a lotta players don't do in trying to block a shot. it's all about their spacing between their opponents, how they tense their legs, what they make their opponents think they're going to do or can do. but they're able to do these things b/c their hops enable them to cover more space, so they can back off their opponents, for instance making them think they've got a wide open shot, then jump and take that shot away.

i used to watch a weird cartoon when i was a kid; i think it was called "danger mouse;" didn't even know how i could watch that crap; there were a lotta things i used to watch as a kid that were nothing.

fyi, a lotta cartoons you watched as a kid werent necessarily that high quality.

oh yea; both batman beyond season 2 and justice league unlimited seasons 1 and 2(i believe they're bundled together) come out tomorrow on sale. big fan of both; watched batman beyond a lot when i was a late teen, and i watched a lot of justice league unlimited shows on cartoon network during college. i intend to get both seasons this weekend. J.L.U. is particularly interesting, b/c it's the 6 core members of the justice league(superman, batman, wonder woman, green lantern, flash, hawkgirl, martian), but now everybody else in dc comics, or at least most of them are involved; green arrow for instance, supergirl, etc.
