SONY HAS THE WORST CUSTOMER SERVICE!!!

These people im talking to have no idea what im even talking about, with Magic the Gathering DLC not working. This is the same issue that happen in EUROPE last week, and now its happening here!!

mixedkidbx on December 20th, 2011 at 4:01 pm said:
SONY WILL STEAL YOUR MONEY IF YOU BUY MAGIC THE GATHERING DLC!!!!

THEIR CALL CENTER WILL TELL YOU TO WAIT TILL TOMORROW TO SEE IF THE UPDATE TO THE GAME HAS TAKEN EFFECT!!!!

mixedkidbx on December 20th, 2011 at 4:14 pm said:
SONY WONT EVEN CALL THE PEOPLE WHO MAKE THE GAME, MAGIC THE GATHERING 2012 TO FIND OUT WHY THE UPDATE TO THE GAME HASNT GONE LIVE!!!!!
Has anyone ever in the history or time been this upset about a Magic The Gathering game?

Aww, man. How am I supposed to enjoy my PS3 without a penguins playing avatar? FML.

THIS is the Update that ALL the new PS3 owners will see on Christmas morning…!? What a terrible first impression of Playstation Plus… You need a new marketing department because this is crap.

Yeah!

What in the name of God is Sony doing? We’ve been waiting a freaking MONTH for Sony to release the first deck pack DLC for Magic 2012, and now that they’ve finally gotten around to it IT DOESN’T WORK. WTF? I just paid $7 to find out I have to wait longer to use the decks. I don’t know what sort of testing Sony is doing with their DLC, but it sucks out loud. FIX YOUR CRAP SONY, OR THE NEXT SYSTEM I BUY WILL HAVE MICROSOFT IN THE NAME.Uh oh. Looks like Sony will be bankrupt in a matter of days now, thanks to MalikTarrant.

MalikTarrant on December 20th, 2011 at 4:41 pm said:
BTW, folks, I called Wizards. They told me they are working with Sony to fix the problem and just need ‘some time and patience’. Like we haven’t had that already after waiting a month for the content to be released to begin with.

My hero!

mixedkidbx on December 20th, 2011 at 4:42 pm said:
@MalikTarrant

yeah i did the same thing, since SONY customer service was so oblivious to the fact there was even a problem!

No way!!!


regginnmad on December 20th, 2011 at 5:44 pm said:
Just another dissatisfied customer reporting in about the Magic 2012 decks. You knew this was a problem in the EU stores and still allowed it to happen in the US store a week later? Not happy….gonna contact Wizards/Stainless as well. I wouldn’t mind, but when I hand over my money, I expect the product then, not some unspecified time down the road
 Lots of nerd rage...


mixedkidbx on December 20th, 2011 at 5:48 pm said:
@regginnmad

Sony doesnt know how to provide good service anymore. They know how to take your money for things you buy, but fail at providing the items purchased.

When i called Sony Customer Service about this issue the moment the store update went live, they had no idea what i was talking about, and refused to even look into the issue or even call Stainless Steal to see if there was a problem.

POOR CUSTOMER SERVICE!!!!

"Epic Fail just like my life!"


xWizzyyy on December 20th, 2011 at 5:52 pm said:
thanks a lot for the magic dotp 2012 dlc sony. thanks for falsely advertising it on the psn store, just i could pay money to buy it and install it just to find out that it didn’t even do anything. i appreciate that you advertise lies on the store. and it’s not like this update should have been released a month ago or anything. because thats how long xbox and steam have had additional content. but not sony! no, they “release” it more than a month late, but it gets better! they don’t release it. just a picture in the psn store that you can pay for just to find out that you didn’t buy anything at all. so yea, thanks sony, i’m just really glad to see how much you appreciate your customers.
So good.

mixedkidbx on December 20th, 2011 at 6:25 pm said:
I would say everyone should call SONY and complain like crazy about how this could happen to us Magic the Gathering players when EU went thru this same issue last week

Nerds unite!


cat_monster2018 on December 20th, 2011 at 8:26 pm said:
I hope you guys didn’t think I forgot!!!
It’s my duty to remind you guys about the FACT that Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas belongs in the PS2 Classics section!!
STOP WASTING TIME AND MONEY!!!

Good job as always, bro. Keep it up!

“mixedkidbx said:

These people im talking to have no idea what im even talking about,”

Yep, I agree! I’ve only callled once, and wished I hadn’t :
Back in June, I was still new to the PS3, and I had played my free copy of Infamous (thanks to the Welcome Back, thanks to the blackout right after I got a PS3) several times. Then it wouldn’t work. I’d get into the game and Cole wouldn’t move, just stand there, no matter what I pushed.
So I called customer service. The rep sounded like she had never seen a PS3, was just reading scripts off a computer screen. After thinking about it or researching for 5 minutes, the solution she gave ? Delete the game, and re-download it. So I did that, and it was a long slow download. Then it still wouldn’t work. Very frustrating!
A couple days later when I went back to my first controller, it worked again! Who would have thought it matters what number is assigned to the controller. A checklist of simple questions for things that might not be obvious to new owners would have saved time and frustration, and given a positive outlook on the customer service staff, instead of them looking as lost as me.

Um...duh?

DaGimp13 on December 20th, 2011 at 10:33 pm said:

ok, normally I’m not one to complain regarding PS+, Sony, etc and the services and deals they provide, but in this case, I feel a little screwed Sony. Back when Resident Evil 5 Gold Edition was released on the PSN, it was the $29.99 for regular members, and $22.49 for PS+ members like myself. I jumped on it, as 25% approx. discount was pretty awesome. now I see it on sale for $19.99, which is a 33% approx. discount. for everyone. why should I use my plus discounts if your just going to make it cheaper not even 2 months later? I’d easily wait the 2 months, and continue working on the ever growing backlog of games
Waaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!



DaGimp13 on December 20th, 2011 at 10:33 pm said:

better yet, if you plan to discount games in the future, at least give your PS+ members the SAME discount in advance (or at PSN launch) that you intend to give to everyone later, at least that way it fair 100%, and your PS+ members won’t feel so screwed over in 2 months time. and please don’t counter this with the scripted “we give lots of free games to balance this” crap, as it doesn’t balance it, free games and superior & advanced discounts is what we ALL pay for.

Also, aside from the Marvel Pinball this month, the other PS+ members are right, the games have been getting worse, and by that, we mean cheaper, not as in depth, or overplayed/over given away. inclucding when the PSN came back up, I can think of atleast 3-4 times A Space Shooter For 2 Bucks has been given away for free, and its counted as a free game, each and every time. it’s redundant. Please stop. Really. Please.

Signed, a concerned PS+ member.

Deep breath, man...

Games and Art Converge as ‘The Studio’ Opens in the Americas

I know I haven't updated this in a while. But this one caught my eye and I thought it was so crappy and gross. This brat had to post two separate entries because they were so long.

jgrizzle358 on December 19th, 2011 at 11:56 am said:
Sony, you guys really need to start getting your head in the game… ever since the incident back in April you have just been digging yourselves a deeper and deeper hole…
everything you do now is ticking people off. 2 PS3′s per game now? fine, whatever. one account per PS Vita? that’s really pushing it, you will lose sales. memory card required? REALLY!? nowadays most systems use internal memory. and PS Vita games are on cartridges, why can’t you just save game data to the cartridge like Nintendo games?
so the Vita can handle Xross Game Chat when the PS3 can’t, but for some reason it can’t do internal memory? yeah ok.
and the freezing and glitch issues you guys caused with the 4.0 update is just beyond unacceptable. Firmware updates should fix crap, not break it further.

+ jgrizzle358 on December 19th, 2011 at 11:56 am said:
and don’t get me started on PS+…. STOP REPEATING CONTENT!!!!!!!!!!
I don’t pay you $50 a year to have you release Spyro for free 3 times in 6 months. NOT COOL.
I swear to God Sony, you guys better have something HUGE in store for us for Christmas or something, and not some stupid movie rental for a movie that came out 20 years ago.
You need to redeem yourselves, and badly, and it’s gonna take a lot for that too happen. Right now you’re losing the Console War, and you only have yourselves to blame, it’s your fault for doing stupid crap like removing features and implementing stuff like “PSN Pass” (seriously, I mean… SERIOUSLY?!?!?)
If you want to save yourselves you better do a complete 180, and fast.
Waaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!

Get Enshrined in Our Hall of Play

Sony did a commercial to show the fans they appreciate their Playstation support. They had people send in pictures with the chance of getting into the commercial. Then they announced you can make your own video on Facebook and have fun with it. Y'know, just a fun, free, no-obligation type of thing...

boomstickbhg on October 28th, 2011 at 11:58 am said:
This looks pretty cool but please make a version of it on an normal/sony/it’s own site.

Due to being run over and the following legal battles and whatnot now that I’m disabled, any use of facebook puts my case at risk (the lawyers say I can’t/shouldn’t even have photo up, since a picture of me smiling somehow can ‘prove’ I’m fine).

So for those of us who can’t use facebook (like me) or who simply hate it (like most people) please give us another option to make use of this cool feature.

thanks for your time.
Cool story, bro.


KidCommando on October 28th, 2011 at 12:46 pm said:
eewwwww, Facebook is icky!

Guess you don’t care about all your fans…only the ones that give you free publicity through Facebook.

I do enjoy the commercials though.
So you only like people who like Facebook, Sony? Pssh. Lame!

RaymondBel on October 28th, 2011 at 2:17 pm said:
Yeah, why Facebook? Why not have our own PSN social network?

C'mon. Let's make a tiny little Playstation social network of our own. Screw those 3 billion Facebook users!

Celebrate Halloween In PlayStation Home

Playstation Home is a virtual world where people can hang out with other PS3 players, play games, and do silly fun stuff. Again, for some reason this makes people angry babies.

Is there a way to tell Granzella Inc that their Southern Island Hideaway is a total Fail, firstable a lot of people hate it or dont like that place entirely, i invite any of you to go there and see how much it LAGS, just to say a complete sentence like, hello, how are you ? takes about 2 to 3 mins to pop on screen, this place needs to be remove from the Home list and be redone , it needs serious improvements, if they were pretending to make a better SEASIDE they failed, make this BEACH – SAND part a lot wider.
As for the new Halloween stuff i hope i dont pay for them and dont get anything like last week, which i bought the Witch costume at 10 am and didnt get it til after 8 pm , and not until i got 4 new rewards and made the Witch costume to pop in Storage . Get rid of Public Places people dont visit anymore and improve the ones that people like , then maybe , there will be less lags among the public places and rewards.
Holy fucking nerd-rage.

Sack It To Me: LittleBigPlanet 2 Move Bundle, LBP2 Special Edition, UNCHARTED 3 Costume

Every now and then, a while after a game has been out, the game will be re-released as a bundle or special edition with extra content. This usually makes people angry.




Aeolus426 on October 25th, 2011 at 1:58 pm said:
Thank you for informing me that i wasted my money on the collectors edition another reason for me not to be a customer anymore ^.^

You're welcome!

BxrLuvr1 on October 25th, 2011 at 2:39 pm said:
What ticks me off, when I purchased LBP2 it claimed to be move compatible…ON THE COVER and wasn’t. I had a move motion controller, eye, and navigator and it DID NOT WORK. I sold my move bundle (as it was useless because I only bought it for LBP2) Now, they want to release this pack. Kind of late now, isn’t it?

If something doesn't work the second I try it, I return it immediately without thinking! (There was actually an extra game on the disc that all you had to do was install it, but BxrLuvr1 apparently can't read)

zekececil14 on October 25th, 2011 at 2:58 pm said:
I hate special editions. I bought mine for $60 day 1. Now they get the game cheaper and get $35 worth of content. Anyone who bought the collector’s edition should get the move pack free.

Wah.

PS_man1984 on October 25th, 2011 at 4:58 pm said:
I guess I’ll trade in my normal copy of LBP2 for this new Move bundle. I’ve been wanting to get a Move for a while now, but Sports Champions was boring (played the demo at Best Buy).

That 2.5 minutes I spent with the game at the store was all I needed to make my decision.

'The Simpsons' Facing Cancellation Over Contract Issues With FOX: Report

ccrevecoeur78 10:05 AM on 10/04/2011
I stopped watching this show a long time ago

So naturally I couldn't wait to be the first person to comment on this post.


MikeDu 09:19 AM on 10/04/2011

I've gone from watching it all the time to watching it sometimes to actively avoiding the series. Its like they've lost track of the concept of humor. I'd prefer they resurrect Futurama, frankly.
Seriously, I hide out behind my TV so the Simpsons doesn't see me. That's how hard I try to avoid it.

Dave Caley09:25 AM on 10/04/2011

Should have been cancelled the first year

I hope this guy has been annoyed for the past 23 years that it's still on.

ILoveGreatDanes 09:26 AM on 10/04/2011

The Simpsons shoud be cancelled anyway. It's been around since what, 1980? Many of those soap operas haven't even been around that long.
If anything is over 20 years old you should kill it right? That's how normal things are. I mean, except soap operas. Those are awesome.

20 comments here. That's 1/3 of their entire audience, not counting friends and family. big yawn......­.. Pssh. Only 20 comments after the article has been up for only 3 minutes?  EPIC FAIL!

This show sucked.
I didn't read the article. I just wanted to see how many people agree with me. Even if I read it it's not like I read an entire book about Arrested Developmen­t. It's like a two paragraph blurb. Sometimes I read about things I hate so that I can avoid ever coming into contact with them. That's how I roll. I know. It's pretty cool, right?

I so envy you for owning the DVDs. I think I'll ask my kids for those for Christmas! And maybe I can work in a word for 'Weeds" and the rest of Reno 911. :-) (I live on an isolated ranch and it can get lonely (and boring) here.. Hey kids, here's my Christmas list. Please make Ma happy. As always, you'll be getting corn and hay in your stockings.

The few people who liked it will say "YES"; but most people could care less, it wasn't that good. That's why it got cancelled. Movie will gross less than the cost to make it.
And you can clearly take my expert prediction to the bank!

This was a VERY funny show when it first aired. I hope they have the entire cast intact when it aires again. Looking for some entertainm­ent on mainstream telly and I just may have to grin and bear the tidious commercial­s for this show. I REALLY dislike commercial­s. And before anyone attacks, I already know, they have to pay the bills, *giggling*
I'mma go out on a limb and say I don't like commercials. Why can't they just make TV without commercials?!?!?!

Personally don't care for the show and I mean the networks probably can't think of much else that's new so they will bring it back for a season, and then cancel it again. But, I am willing to give it another change.
I really don't care about this show. Guess I'll watch it when it comes out again. I mean what else am I going to do? Keep being awesome?

RECENT UPDATES/CHANGES

Hey everyone who's been reading this so far. Thanks for the feedback. Had a couple hundred views over the past week which is pretty cool. I'm trying to make it easier to read and navigate. I added a "LABELS" thingy over on the righthand side, if you wanna narrow down the posts, by either videogames, sports, etc. Any other suggestions, let me know. You can subscribe on the right hand side (enter your email address and I guess you get emails when I update this). Or you can subscribe all the way at the bottom, based on how you like to read blogs (Google Reader, etc). Leave some comments! +1 something! LIKE something! Repost it on Facebook. Whatever.

UNCHARTED 3 Multiplayer Experience is Just Hours Away

Sometimes companies will have tie-in promotions with other companies. It's a bonus that people, as gamers, should be thankful for. Should be...but usually never are. This year, Uncharted 3 is having a promotion with Subway. Basically, if you buy a soda, you get to play the online portion of the game FOR FREE FOR A MONTH before the game even comes out. Seems like a nice deal, right?


GibbShift on September 30th, 2011 at 7:42 pm said:
Worst start to any official gaming promotion ever. Seriously. I don’t even care who was in the wrong here anymore, I just rated this thread one square because somebody had to feel my smoldering wrath. At least I won’t look like a complete fool when I walk into Subway tomorrow.

Just TERRIBLE. Let’s hope it takes off for you guys, though, because I love this game and series so very much.
I bet you're very cautious of never looking like a fool in public...or on message boards.


glanzekr08 on September 30th, 2011 at 7:55 pm said:
Wait we have to buy from Subway in order to play it? Yeah, but no thanks. I don’t eat subway, I don’t like it. So that means I can’t like Uncharted 3 muliplayer either? Nice. Will it be available to regular Playstation Network? Not just the Subway customers? I’m not going out of my way for a sandwich.
But I will most certainly go out of my way to type this.


Stoffinator on September 30th, 2011 at 8:10 pm said:
Thank you for unbalancing the game for the rest when the game launches November 1. Nothing more like going online with a new game to have everyone else be top level rank and know all the maps. We do really appreciate that Sony.
How dare you release the game early? Jerks!

Everyone, be careful of the Playstation representatives walking around with machine guns forcing people to go buy Subway drinks.

This SUX! They launch it when the BF3 beta is still going on! Then the full game will launch a week right after BF3 comes out! WTF!!!
AGAIN, HOW DARE YOU RELEASE TWO GAMES EARLY SO PEOPLE CAN TRY THEM OUT FOR FREE AND HAVE FUN?!?!!?? UGGH!!!!!

Wow this is straight up BS,

Americans who eat at subway get this – that in turn help them get ahead of everyone else,
Europe apparently gets it too?,
But us canadians, like me who PREORDERED, are going to be at an insane disadvantage.. all cause our subway doesnt do promotions like this?

If it wasn’t Uncharted, this would be reason enough for me to cancel my preorder :/
I would totes cancel my preorder, then just buy it the week after. That'll show 'em.

Obama on Facebook...

Barack Obama

Quote of the day: “Your first obligation is to do well in school. Your first obligation is to make sure that you’re preparing yourself for college and career. But you can also start making your mark right now.” —President Obama challenging the students of Banneker High School to succeed in his back-to-school address today




Jeffrey White And my response would be why should I worry about college for a $70,000 a year job when I can get a job in porn and make millions doing what I love the most with talents I was born with?
Do it.



Solomon Ndungu Those talking about negros shud move to planet mars if they think the world was created for them.....as long as they live, we all poop a smelly poop! There's nothing like black poop n white poop. Ideas change the world...America's revolution is credited to its people not their skin colours.....
Couldn't have said it better myself.



Rahmel Lofton BILL CLINTON OR YOU CAN BRING CIGARETTES BACK TO THE PRISON SYSTEMS.
That's not even close to a real sentence.



Leonard Mulwila Malama Black is beautiful,god bless africa and obama.
Thanks, Leonard.



Chidy Kidulah Yeah!ma dude d pain ts lyk a wind tsavel 4 a long tym dats y psychologist advice 2 don hurt others

Mark Patz Your first oblegation is to worship the Lord your God and serve Him only.
My bad.



Tara McKenzie Why didn't my child hear this in school today? She goes to a public school.
Maybe she's as stupid as you.



Casey Omt Carroll the disparity in school quality is huge, and no offense but what about those of us not in school anymore, are we just lost causes?
Her/His profile pic, by the way, was a "Legalize It" poster.



Maureen Crook College is great but I no so many young people who have 4=5 years and come out and can only find a job in a store. Not everyone has the brains to go to college so many people I no too many to mention worked for years in Manufacturing and are not retrainable They might have an IQ of 80=90 and they are great people so what do I tell them?
Hopefully you don't tell them anything, you f'in moron.



Saeed Ahmed I need help?
Definitely not.



George Stevens Scumbag. Sold any babies yet.
You guys remember all those stories about how Obama can't wait to sell babies while he's in office?

Wait a second, you have no subway cellphone access?
I'm on a Hong Kong subway train, in a tunnel, right now as I post this - with a full HSPA signal
I'm not bragging or anything, it's just a big surprise.
I hope Obama included adding new cell towers in his latest spending plan.

Here's what I would never do: click on an article about China's subway system then comment on it.

Andrei Ivanesei
You just get this now and you will only have have signal in stations? LOL welcome to 2001, sincerely, Romania. We have 3g here everywhere in the subway for 3-4 years, if not more.Yeah but you still live in Romania.

Obama on Facebook asking for donations

Barack Obama

This Friday’s fundraising deadline is important. It’s a chance for us to show why we're different from any campaign in politics: because we rely on ordinary Americans giving what they can, one grassroots donation at a time. Will you donate $5 and be part of this campaign today?


Ethan Fletcher Please quit updating so many times a day!! I don't want to have to block you!
He means business, Obama.

Aaron Asper you're a horrible president...congrats :)
You're an awesome person...congrats :)

Amy Rosenthal I gave in 2008. But since then, the recession has caused me to lose a job. Then a second job. I don't have $5 to buy groceries, let alone donate to your campaign.

Good thing you're still paying your internet bill though to go on Facebook.

Abraham Velazquez Ill do pay a dollar kind of short my boos fire me today

Aww, yeah but, um, how about...wait what?

Tylicee MysReign President Obama, I REALLY need a job :( I am just one of so many out here hurting. I am not a lazy, uneducated, out for anything free, kind of woman. I am hardworking, dedicated, reliable, talented, and VERY motivated citizen who is losing hope. Please, help me so that I can help my family. My sons are watching. Signed ~ A Patient but Frustrated American. Many blessings to you and your family.

C'mon kids. Git yo' ass ova hurr and watch mama talk to da prezodent. I needs a job!

Charlie Kelly WE ALL MOST REMEMBER IT TAKES THE WHOLE NATION TO MAKE THIS WORK, NOT JUST THE PRESIDENT WE MUST FIRST LOOK TO JESUS THE ROCK, FOR GUIDENCE IN ALL WE DO SO MORE PRAYING AND LESS POINTING OF FINGERS

Yeah, c'mon everyone. Stop donating money and start praying!


Judy Mc Gibbon Dear Barack Obama--- Would love to donate just five bucks if I had a job....have been looking for over a year... please help me find one that supports my family...can you institute a federal job search website that branches to all states? That would be helpful...let us click a link to find a job close to us....thank you my president!

Bah, if only there was some way to go online and look for a job. A link of sorts...maybe a website...Oh well, back to Facebook until that technological breakthrough happens.

The War is Over. The Greatest Sidekick of All Time…Revealed?

Sometimes websites like Gamespot.com will have silly tournaments with video game characters in a March Madness style bracket formation. Best Hero, Best Villain, etc. Recently they apparently had a Best Sidekick tournament where people could vote for their favorite sidekick and the winner gets...oh right absolutely nothing. It was just for fun. Because these sidekicks aren't real. Some people took it a little too serious when Launchpad McQuack (from Ducktales) won.

Megavideogamer
Lauchpad McQuack won? How did he manage to defeat Albert? EMC must not be equal to/or even squared. I can see Launchpad beating Albert in a hotdog eating contest. But that is it.

Now I shall have to track down the NES Ducktales game and play it. I never did play that game back in 1989. It was a decent platformer, If I remember correctly the Gamepro magazine review was good. But I never played Ducktales for the NES.

Mmm, yes. If I do recall a Gamepro paragraph about a game I never played back in 1989, I do believe it said the game was 'good.'

jjmonster2006
wow. that's. retarded.
Awesome feedback, bro.


partyboy66566
Are you serious? There are so many better sidekicks! Any mario character is a better sidekick (Luigi or Toad). Clank? Daxter? Otacon?
You're right. They CAN'T be serious about this!!! I demand a recount!


halorocks123
You guys at Gspot should know that this f***ing contest was rigged from the start. This contest was not only a waste of time but a total BS answer in the. Never have another one of these f***ing contest again.

Wow. I  hope this kid never gets any actual bad news in real life.

brodie333
this is really pathetic, alot of really good names were out in the first round. Dom (Gears of War), Luigi (if you dont know what he's from, go kill yourself), Navi (Zelda), Epona (zelda), Cortona (Halo), Garrus (Mass Effect), Dogmeat (Fallout), Dog (fable). these arent just all the big names, but just some off the top of my head that deserve to win more than Launchpad...

"Luigi (if you dont know what he's from, go kill yourself)" I think that pretty much sums it up.

ziproy
Yea these contests are jokes. I mean I absolutely HATE Master Chief but he didn't deserve to lose to the Bubble Bubble Dino's (despite the fact I voted for them). And the Brood Queen as the worst villain was just as bad. Gamespot you need to fix these or stop doing them

Wait hold on. Did this kid really just say Master Chief didn't deserve to lose to the Bubble Bubble Dino?

I didn’t make the Uncharted 2 theater event last time. I was recently told at work to take as much vacation time as possible between now and November due to a tight December schedule so i may just take a day off to go to this in nyc, its not that far from my office actually.

The fact that someone has to sign for the delivered copy might be a problem, can someone sign for me? I’ll be at work when it arrives but I don’t want it delivered to my job. My mother lives nearby and I usually have my deliveries sent to her.

Outside of that I think i’m going to go to this. I wonder what the prizes will be (not that I ever win anything LOL)
You totally live with your mom still. Thanks for the update on your busy workload in December though.

Kobe Bryant has offer to play in Italy

uncbluegoat

It's college football season followed by college basketball season so who cares what Kobe does ? Cancelling the entire NBA season is just fine. College basketball is where it's at..oh yeah Kobe never played college basketball...whatever.

I bet this guy never went to college.

Scouthouse

I love the NBA but their players are ridiculous, they don't understand that the NBA doesn't make the kinda of money to support their huge contracts like it used to. I hope the NBA just shuts down and they all have to move to 3rd world countries and play.

Definitely the next logical step for millionaires...

OregonChokes

I hope the NBA dies, ever since the 90s it has sucked.

Yeah, just go and die, you NBA person!

Chucklepuff

NBA is gay anyway.. I don't know many people in the south that care for the sport.

It's so gay, isn't it Chucklepuff?

Baseball is not a real sport

Geez trolls, give it up, seriously. Cant you make one comment without "Kobe is a rapist" or "Lebum is better than MJ"? Make an intelligent comment for once.

I hate baseball myself, but I thought a guy trying to talk sense into other idiots on a board with a username like that was great.

ElcochinoFrijole

F professional sports man! we fans spend our hard earned money to buy tickets, pay 8.50 a beer, buy our kids at least 2 hotdogs; while they TRY and figure out how to split up millions. To play a game we all played as little kids!!!We are the ones who suffer. I would like to say thank you for your greed. Thanks alot guys.

Yeah, but no one wants to pay to see you and your fat, hot dog swallowing kids play basketball.
