Basketball was my favourite and I spent a good while loving NHL until the NFL enticed me to it with its strategic plays, however I’ve always struggled a bit with baseball. :) I should add that I’m in a minority over here where I actually prefer US sports to most European ones. In the interests of good relations, I apologise for the ‘Rounders’ dig at Baseball in my previous sentence. This side of the briny, the term “soccer” has a derogatory slant to it, that I can’t quite explain – I think it just doesn’t quite fit with what we term “the beautiful game” – perhaps it should be called European Football for diplomacy sake? I dunno. Whereas “over the pond” its Football, Soccer and Baseball. An interesting ‘cast none-the-less, well at least until we get deep into the 1970’s baseball heroes.Īs a European/British listener I’d just like to clarify that we call the sports American Football, Football and Rounders ). Good to hear Bruce is back, but we almost lose Tom in the sports based mayhem. My favorite part of the podcast is when Tom offers to get everyone coffee, because honestly everyone likes coffee.

Make sure you have Vic Davis back again to talk about his next game. That’s an incredibly good 1-player strategy game that will be on my hard drive permanently. ![]() Also I recently bought Armageddon Empires after hearing about it from you guys. In fact I bought Dominions 2 after reading the battle they had in the magazine and then reading the Tutorial that Bruce wrote to help out newbies. Their battles in Computer Gaming World magazine were pretty epic and hilarious. Off topic I just wanted to say that it’s kind of cool hearing Tom and Bruce. It was a ‘strategy-free’game, in fact thinking was not even a requirement to play the game. I remember Pete Rose had a HUGE chance to hit a single. You would take a cardboard disc and put it into a spinner slot. I confess I’m not really a sports fan, but I do remember playing All-Star Baseball when I was younger.
