Why not turn that whole console into a multi-screen MameFest?

P.S. Isn't hockey still on strike? Are these dudes so desperate they're watching hockey reruns? I feel safer already.

At the risk of defending those who may be watching hockey at work, and as I type this reply whilst I should be working, it MAY be that they have CNN or some other news channel on that has 2 minutes of sports every half hour.

Hockey is back, they have had their draft, and teams are making news by acquiring free agents etc.

If I had to guess, I would say they were showing video footage of the Phoenix Coyotes because Gretzky is gonna be coaching them.

Gotta get back to work...or maybe fire up some 2 on 2....

agreed, throw that bum out completely. If I go to a game in Columbus or Detroit I may take my stick with me.

Wouldn't Missile Command be more appropriate?
