Remember that time it looked like I was plagiarized?

I've never played Capcom's "Lost Planet" games.

I enjoy gaming, but if I'm going to spend time stuck on an alien planet killing things, I'd prefer that experience to contain the hyper-melodramatic-space-opera-bull-shit of Mass Effect 1 and/or 3 (Mass Effect 2, for all it's accolades, struck me as much too dry and/or self-serious).
Anways, Lost Planet has always struck me as the "Pitch Black" of space games, whereas I'm more a "Chronicles of Riddick" kinda guy.

Of course I'm probably the world's only "Chronicles of Riddick" kinda guy.

When I first saw the trailer for "Lost Planet 3", the first thing that popped to mind was "wow that dude looks like RA Dickey".

Then someone tweeted something, and I remembered "Space Jays".

So Capcom, I'm firing the first shot: if there are space lasers in this game, I'm taking y'all to court.

Angry Bretts

I think it's pretty obvious that Brett Lawrie like his cell phone:

I mean, the dude tweets about Swedish House Mafia often enough that at least a couple of 'em must've been sent from his cell.

And if he's got a smart phone, he's probably got Angry Birds.

Which is pretty fitting, because he's the Angriest Bird I know of (by bird I mean Blue Jay, not British woman).

And seeing how Angry Birds isn't afraid to license their game off to the highest paying intellectual property, I think it's only fitting that Brett Lawrie gets a shot at it.

The Munenori Kawasaki All Star Write-In Campaign Video: The Washington Nationals

Bluebird Banter's Munenori Kawasaki write in campaign is barrelling full steam ahead.

Of course, Kawasaki's performance today is making it pretty easy to want to write him in:



Whereas before I approached this campaign via an anti-Jhonny Peralta attack ad, I thought this time it was best to model a vid on Kawasaki's seemingly endless positivity. Well sort of. It's at least as positive as I can get.

Thanks to @Minor_Leaguer at Bluebird Banter @Matt_HBB from House of the Bluebird for the great GIF action.

Rob and Doug: Pug Brothers

I had this idea to make a cartoon about a couple of pugs, who are brothers. One of them is the mayor of Dog City. The other is a city councillor or something.
Then they find a cell phone.
The Rob and Doug Ford had to go screw it up for me.

GIF OF THE DAY: How to help Melky Cabrera's Legs (and Henry Blanco's too)

I'm running this into the ground.
But after watching Melky hobble into second base looking like a sixty year old man multiple times the last week, I feel this is something I needed to do.
Also, Henry Blanco is a slow man. A lucky man, but still slow.
This would probably help the both of them (and after watching tonight's game, it might be a good idea for Edwin Encarnacion as well).

How to Deal with Melky's Ailing Legs

Melky Cabrera looks to be in extreme pain when rounding the bases. There's been much speculation on how to deal with his damaged legs.
May I suggest this:

Tat Tig-Rs: Toronto Sports Robot Heroes

So last night, May 1st, all of Toronto Sports imploded in on itself.
Mostly because of Boston, but also because none of this city's teams include transforming robots.
I saw someone on twitter (@suicidepass) call Dion Phaneuf "Grimlock" a couple of weeks ago.
And that got me thinking, that maybe that's what this city needs:
