But what? He's different??? OJ has been charged not guilty... Point blank. All these cats going to jail now in current times and do you wanna ban them from the game... Ban Jerry Porter! Hell no. And the Irish dude is funny as hell... because he is talking crazy from behind a computer. Disrespecting is one thing that no one has done yet on this blog, that is dumb and I cant even be mad at him. the facts are the facts Ray Lewis beat his murder charge too… But what? He’s different???

Attacking Pasta because he worked for MN? Calling him biased? Seriously, get a damn clue people. This was an excellent write-up on a game that has continued to show the people behind it are loopy. Pasta and Manny have made a very valid (and logical) point that real teams who have potentially offensive nicknames have created those names well in the past. There is no circumstance today that would allow a team to get away with it. For 2K to create a team called the 'Indians' and then fill their caricature/idiotic looking stadiums with offensive stereotypical BS is beyond ridiculous. Between telling fans to just 'shut up and play the game', paying OJ to be included in the game, and now this, they certainly aren't going to win over many new fans. That's not even including the fact that their player models and animations look like everyone's got a stick up their ass...

Even then, he has still backed behind Cheif Yahoo when the Cleveland Indians keep putting him on hats and sleeves. But I'm glad your opinion doesn't matter as much as mine doesn't matter, because in the end, we'll still buy the game, and All- Pro will hit the shelves.

"Opinions and news do not mix". Says who? I'd say readers disagree as some of the most popular gaming news sites have the opinionated edge to them. If you expect me to just regurgitate news or post links to news that isn't what you'll find here. Theres other places that you can go for that type of info.
