My high school Alma Mater was just beat in football by its arch-rival.

Not a big deal.. right?

Yeah.. it is.

It's the first time they've been beaten by their arch-rival in twenty nine years.

Yes, twenty nine.

The Streak is over.

Undefeated Mishawaka beat visiting Penn 26-10 Friday night to end Penn's 153-game Northern Indiana Conference winning streak. Mishawaka (7-0) had not beaten its arch rival since 1980.

Penn (6-1) had not lost a conference game since 1985. The Kingsmen entered the game ranked No. 1 in the state's 5A classification.

I am a Kingsmen at heart, but I'm so happy for the Cavemen.. and they totally deserve it for every single time we've destroyed them in the past.

As I said on my Facebook: They do deserve a win.. just every .. how many years has it been? 30? We can do that.. just every thirty years.. we give them a false hope that they'll win again, and then we continue to dominate them from here on out. Simple. Kind of like a Kingsmen's approach to Pavlovian response conditioning.* :)

*At the time I didn't know it'd been twenty nine years.

Congratulations Cavemen!

    • Thanks, Sony and Nintendo, you effectively killed platform-agnostic gaming. Long gone are the days when you could wish to play a specific game on whatever platform you were. Now, you have to buy the hardware just to play that single game. What, you're only interested in THAT game and nothing more? Bad luck, suck it and buy our console.
    • The AI data centers need it more than us so...let them gobble it all up at that price!
    • "CRAZIER than ever!" Crazy Taxi: World Tour is officially coming soon by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Sega announced it is working on bringing back some of its classic franchises in 2023, and while it has taken some time, the company finally gave fans a look at one of these new projects at the Xbox Games Showcase today, which turned out to be a brand-new Crazy Taxi entry. Watch the debut trailer above, which has snippets of gameplay in between the cinematic bits while blasting a track from The Offspring. Dubbed Crazy Taxi World Tour, this installment is aptly being described as being "CRAZIER than ever!" The director behind the original, Kenji Kanno, is helming this new entry as well, which will come with access to five new cities to drive in, competitive multiplayer modes, a vehicle customization system, and more. Axel is returning as a protagonist as well, but this time a mystery driver is offering him the opportunity to take his adventures to the streets in other countries. This will involve Axel chasing down masked villains that have somehow stolen his taxi, which means even more extreme missions and challenges to overcome. "From transporting passengers at top speed to tackling unique side missions and odd jobs across dynamic maps, there are countless ways to drive crazy and rake in big money," says Sega about this new installment after over 20 years. "Perform outrageous drifts, catch insane air, and drive at crazy speeds across five different cities as you work to deliver passengers and complete a variety of missions and challenges." The studio has even confirmed an in-game Arcade Mode that players will be able to access containing the original games for plenty of nostalgic action. Crazy Taxi: World Tour is currently slated to release sometime in 2027 across PC, Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 5, and Nintendo Switch 2.
    • This and Crazy Taxi are the two games that interested me the most from this showcase.
