Around SBN: Roy Nelson Willing to Pay for His Next Opponent's Drug Test

Commodore 64 and what it will bring


Ok, so let's face it, if Mike (I used to be Bozo the Clown) Commodore really does take #64 for the Wings and becomes the updated Commodore 64 - what will the "lines" be????

Just a few that pop into my mind....feel free to add your own!

Reboot - when he needs his skates sharpened OR completely misplays a puck in our Defensive zone

Blue screen of death - when he Kronwall's someone into the boards OR has one of those "Lilja to Selanne" style turnovers right next to our net

Floppy disk - ok, a flop...do I really have to be descriptive (though I don't remember MC doing any flopping)?

Hardware issue - needs a new stick, faceshield or needs a helmet repair

Software issue - any bad play that invoives a brain-cramp

I/O problem - when he fans on a pass or a shot

Screen saver - when he clears the front of the net for James "Tiberius" Howard

Startup problem - umm, doesn't play well in his first couple of shifts in any period

Boot issue - Skate problem OR fans on a pass / shot / hit

Forgot to Save - played well one period and bad the next

16 bit operating system - I know there's one here, I'm just not coming up with it now

I played these games in the 90’s on a used C64 (I burned it out eventually) along with my NES and Sega Genesis and they were still fun despite the limitations of the C64. It was a machine that game developers really knew how to push its limits.

this is great

I already use hardware/software problems in regular conversation. We can have so many phrases that apply to him.

Big-O Complexity

For when he tries something on the ice way too complex for his skillset and makes us all groan collectively.

Think about how stupid the average person is, and then realize that half of them are even stupider! --George Carlin

Upgrade Required

When Commodore screws up on D and Kindl bails his ass out with a good play.
