I'm sitting here at the library listening to my iTunes with a ridiculous crossfade and putting everything else off in my life. I figure now is as good a time as ever to post a new blog.
Before we get to business I wanted to do some quick house cleaning. LOBO and I are giving this as much attention as we can and we're now on Facebook, as basically all of you know. Marcus Darpino of Mental Poison fame has kindly helped us get the name out there and build up a small Facebook following. I'm sure you already know this, but you can check his entertainment out at

http://twitter.com/#!/MentalPoisonRAD , on Twitter.
Also, the daily views are building up and that's a great thing - now all we need you to do is "Follow" the blog. The ultimate goal is to make Saul Good Incorporated a household commodity, and following us is essential to that. With the exception of a few kind souls, our IRL friends just cannot be bothered with following our blog. They'll check it out, but won't follow it. Getting them to follow us is a lost cause, so I'm hoping that our new found growing internet community will be a little more willing to follow us.
With that hippie bullshit out of the way, I just had a couple silly things on my mind that I'd like to talk about.

I have been playing sports video games my entire life, and they have only gotten better with the advent of Superstar mode. For you broads and domesticated males that don't know what that is, it's basically your one chance in life to live out your dream of sports glory. You create an athlete and guide him throughout his career. The more games you play, the more attributes you will acquire. If done correctly and efficiently, you can enjoy being a successful superstar and all of its fruitful benefits. You can beat the Cowboys with Michael Vick. You can catch a Roy Halladay perfect game. You can pass around Lord Stanley's Cup with Chris Pronger and Jaromir Jagr (if you're not picking up any of these Philadelphia sports references, then we are on different wavelengths, and this blog isn't for you). The point is, you no longer have to dream about these things as a hopeful kid; you can virtually live them.
With all of this stated, I'm now going to explain why Superstar mode is the ultimate double-edged sword. Because of all the benefits you get from Superstar mode, you understandably disregard the ultimate kick in the mushroom tip about it - turning it off. That time when you have to stop playing for the night. In every Madden game I own, I am the great white running back who averages 175 yards and 2 TDs a game. I love every second of it. I have a great night of kicking ass for the Eagles and then before I know it, it's 3:00 AM. I save my progress, turn off my game, and realize the harsh reality of things. I'm alone in a dark room in my underpants. I'm overweight and hairy. No missed calls or new text messages. No money in my wallet or in the bank. My parents are ashamed of the man I've become. My best friend? Tequila. My best girlfriend? Nobody. Oh well... at least I can still dream. That's what makes Superstar mode so effective - it's a dream come true, and a hard lesson of life. When I head home, I actually have a big division game against the Redskins. Wish me luck...and I don't mean in the game.
One last thing....Human car wreck Amy Winehouse apparently died from alcohol poisoning. She was surrounded by empty bottles of vodka. According to reports, she was over 5 times the legal limit of inebriation at the time of death. What do I get from this? I wish more people I knew partied like Amy Winehouse.
Have a great day, cunts. Please follow!
