Anything with a numeric keypad is not a video game. Period. End of sentence. (Intellivision....sheesh!)  |

I actually went on EBay a couple of months ago looking for a working Intellivision and the football game. In any case, you probably just weren't any good at it, and that's why you didn't like it. |

An additional story that adds some more detail. I agree with the generation of wussies, but some people may want to reel it in a little. I mean the parents refused to move the kid up to a higher league that he should have been pitching in the whole time. sports.espn.go.com/espn/page2/story?page=080827/kreidler |

I think that makes a lot more sense. I said all along that if there is a feasible step up league, then that is fine. In other words, if it wasn't too expensive, or too far away or impractical for some other reason. If he has a legitimate alternative league, then I see no real issue. I still don't like the idea of trying to "avoid" competition or having a winner and a loser. I think that mentality is counterproductive, but this is a different situation entirely.
