Now pitching for the New York Mets, number thirty-four, Seth
Berkowitz! I finally made the bigs! Pitched two scoreless
innings in relief against the Giants, and am now making my first start
against the Marlins. Career mode is strange, in that you're not
in charge of team decisions and player movement. The Mets made
some strange moves in the offseason, signing Pedro Martinez to a new
7-year (!) contract, letting David Wright go, signing Griffey to play
center and moving Beltran over to right, etc. Glavine
retired. And Sal Fassano is catching me today.
Bizarre. Still really fun though.

MLB '06: The Show (Hall of Fame, PSP)
2008 Mets, rookie season for pitcher Seth Berkowitz. 0-0 record with a 4.15 ERA. No-decision in my first start, and may be heading towards one in my second as well. NHL 07 (Superstar, 360) New York Rangers: 5-3 NCAA '07 (Heisman. 360) Army Black Knights: 2-0 I was actually trying to sell NCAA '07 last week, 'cause I got bored of playing on All-American and Heisman just seemed totally unfair to me (and I refuse to tweak sliders these days), but then I was at a restaurant where the Army/Air Force game was on, and it inspired me to give it another go with Army. They've got my favorite color scheme with the black and gold, they're terrible (so constantly losing would be 'realistic'), and since I didn't go to a division 1 school, they've got a less regionally specific appeal... though I did grow up fairly close to West Point. Anyway I had two GREAT games with them on Heisman... I found that if I weathered the early storm, I could usually fight my way back into the game. And there is something about NCAA 360... I can't put my finger on why I think it looks so much better than Madden. It may be the lighting, maybe how they don't blur out the croud like they do in Madden... but it's a gorgeous game. |

Well, I finished my Zips' regular season. I'm 7-5, 6-2 in conference. I lost a tie-breaker in the MAC East to Ohio, so I'm out of the championship game. I was 6-0, and controlled my own fate, but laid a serious egg against both Ohio and West. Michigan.
I did end up in the New Orleans bowl, though, and I'll be facing off against 6-6 UTEP. I achieved two of my three goals by beating Cant State and getting a bowl bid. I also landed a 4* OT, a 3* OG, and a 3* SS during in-season recruiting, but lost out on a 4* CB (which I desparately needed!). Looking forward to the bowl game and my favorite part - off-season recruiting! Hopefully, I'll get to that tomorrow...

NCAA '07 (Heisman, 360)
Finished my first season with the Army Black Knights. Went 10-3, earned a spot in the Emerald Bowl (where I lost a heartbreaker to Florida International), and had a fullback win the Heisman. Who knew? Season results: @ Arkansas State, W 38-33 vs. Kent State, W 28-25 @ Texas A&M, W 30-7 @ Baylor, W 38-13 vs. Rice, W 38-23 vs. 1AA East, W 45-3 @ Connecticut, W 56-35 vs. TCU, W 34-31 OT @ Tulane, L 10-31 (that dome intimidated me) vs. Air Force, W 28-0 (take that, flyboys!) @ Notre Dame, L 21-45 @ Navy, W 27-20 OT (this was an awesome game) vs. FIU (Emerald Bowl), L 28-31 Bumped Army's prestige from an 'F' up to a 'D'. Fullback Erik Woods won the Heisman... the beneficiary of countless dump-offs. He had 154 receptions for 1733 yards and 17 TD's on the season. Year two should be interesting... I've got a 'B+' for strength of schedule. |

NCAA 07 XBOX 360:
Currently 5-2 with Florida State. I scheduled all non conference games vs. top ranked opponents on the road. Only losses so far was a comeback victory to NC State and a blowout vs ND.
I can't put this game down. I like playing as Fla State, but there are so many teams that I would like to try. I can see myself playing this game until the next one is out.

I need to get my Madden and NHL season's started again. The craziness of the holidays has taken up most of my free time at the moment though.

Edit: found a buyer for Madden. Having too much fun with NCAA right now. Will run multiple dynasties in NCAA & CH2K7.

NJ Devils win a tough shootout on the road against Colorado 8-6. The Devils now stand at the top of division at 5-1.
