SBI Fight 3: Dempsey vs. Fury

Fight 3 of the Scott Bullerwell Invitational:

Dempsey knocks out Fury 23 seconds into round 9.

This was a battle.  Fury kept coming back despite the punishment Dempsey was giving him, but Fury’s fatigue got to him as Dempsey finished him off.

The judges gave round 5 to Dempsey despite the fact that Fury had landed more punches.

Next up: Wladimir Kiltschko vs. Lennox Lewis

EPL 2018-19

A future project:

Cardiff City competed in the Premier League during the 2018-19 season.  I rooted for them since that’s where they film Doctor Who.  Sadly, they were relegated back to the English Champions League after finishing 28th in the EPL table.

I will replay their season in an attempt to prevent them from being relegated.

I also had no idea that there is a Filipino player on this team, until my sister asked about a player named Neil Ethridge.

He’s their goalie, and I never even considered looking him up last season because the name threw me off.  He also plays for the Azkals, the Philippine National Men’s Soccer team.

I do have plans to insert a fictional player to possibly help Cardiff City along in my replay.  He is known only as “Pepsiman”.

Stay tuned!

Dice vs. Cards

I think I found a possible reason why I can’t seem to wrap my head around Inside the Paint and Inside the Crease basketball and hockey games.  And it’s dumb.

Both of those games use a fast action card (FAC) system as opposed to dice.  I like rolling dice more than flipping cards.

This may be why I’ve found Glory Days Boxing more fun to play, for me, than Title Bout II, which also uses a FAC system.

And I was able to grasp the basics of SSG basketball because of it’s dice roll mechanic similar to Payoff Pitch Baseball.  I’ve tried using the FACs for Payoff Pitch, but always find myself reverting back to using dice.

I was never a big Statis Pro Baseball gamer because of the cards.

I did pull out Statis Pro Basketball this morning, and may try to play a game to see if this reasoning holds water or not.

Stay tuned!

In Progress, Revision to the Revised Revision of the Revision

The main change is putting the 1967 Warriors on hold, along with the 1988 Mets (revisited) replay.  I anticipate playing a soccer game with PSV soon, and hopefully starting basketball and hockey in the coming weeks.

Stay tuned!
