Words, words, words... I could toss out a line or two, but instead I'll simply allow this picture of the lovely Ashley to speak a thousand words for me. Yes, I find her so nice that I needed to post pictures of her twice!So I'm guilty of being a guy, blah.
I think what I hope to see (as a wrestling fan) is for women like Ashley to improve in the ring and maybe see a boost in the Women's Division like it was back in 2003. Imagine, there are people out there hoping that this division can amount to more!
Anyway...
This past Saturday was a special one for me as it was the first time I've gotten to watch Sumo wrestling live. It might not sound like such a big deal, but I grew up watching it with my grandparents and it was cool to me to see what it was like in person.
I imagine to some it might look like a pair of fat guys smashing up against each other. I suppose you could say that, if you were looking for a simple way of putting it.
Personally, I see it like football without the protective gear. Or the ball.
To sum up my thoughts about the tournament (which was the first one they've had in Hawaii in 14 years), it was freaking awesome! I would definately watch again, should they return to Hawaii! And I will say that after seeing it in person, I most certainly have a new found respect for this Japanese sport. Watching it on TV does it no justice.
Onto the last thing I'm going to write for the day, games. Yes, it just cannot be a post without having to mention video games in some way. I can't wait until I can get my hands on that XBox 360! I think what I am hyped most about at the moment is Blue Dragon. Then again, there are more then a couple of games out now that I am hyped about.
I still wish I could have gotten a Nintendo Wii, The Legend of Zelda looks awesome and the same goes for Super Paper Mario. Too bad I've struck out twice on getting one (see yesterday's post for a very shallow explaination o.O). I wonder if the shortage is due to Nintendo? Or can they just not keep up? Hmm...
As for the PS3, eh... it is far too expensive for me and there haven't been any games that scream at me (thank god). What does interest me, though I'm not sure if it will be enough to get me to buy a system, is Final Fantasy XIII. Only time will tell if I can somehow find a way to convince myself that laying down $600 is worth it for a game system.
One last mention, Final Fantasy Tactics for the PSP... aw, now that would almost get me to pick up that system. But alas... nope!
