We all thought when Chauncey was traded to the nuggets that Allen Iverson would either make the team better or we would still be at a playoff level. But boy was everyone wrong. Lately the Pistons have dropped 16 of their last 21. For those non-basket ball fans that means we have only won five of our last 21 games.



Allen Iverson ruins what the Pistons have had for the past 5 or so years. We had 5 role players that would do what they had to do in order to win ball games. Now they have Allen Iverson with a good supporting cast that he chooses to leave behind. Rip Hamilton went from 25 points a game to under 15 a game. Their record is around.500 all because of A.I.



Them making the playoffs is questionable but, in my opinion they will make it for sure. I mean they have been to 6 straight eastern conference finals. If they didn't make the playoffs then it would be a tragedy for all Piston fans.

Pete Dorr

This guy is in my opinion a loser but yet he is pretty amazing at the same time. He's a loser for just the fact that he is a grown man that just plays video games but he's sweet for the same exact reason.

He has a youtube account and he has a video for just about every single video game. I recently discovered his videos and noticed a couple of things. The first thing i noticed is that all of the videos are aroung ten minutes long. The second thing is that he doesn't have many views but the people that do watch his videos are all subscribers.

The video I watched recently is a tour of his room. I would have to say that it blew me away with how much video gaming stuff he has. The first thing I saw was the shelves and shelves of video games. Some in boxes some just lying around loose. Another thing i thought was pretty sick is the 3 or 4 store signs he has. Like the ones that light up and have the name of the console by them. I thought that they were pretty sweet.

Another feature of his room is the collectibles he has. The majority of them being sonic and mario because he is obsessed with them but there are a few other characters. In a corner of his room he has a five foot tall sonic stuffed animal. Personally I don't know who would make it and let alone have somebody buy it but, it's still pretty sweet.

Here is one of his youtube links

Best Xbox 360 Games continued

Call of Duty 4 and World at War

These would probably the most popular games on 360 and even on Playstation 3. My friends play countless hours on these games. I even know a 10 year old who brived his parents into letting him get number four.

The most common use for these games are online game play. Call of Duty 4: modern warfare was the game of the year 2007. If you are going to buy one get world at war because the people that still play it are absolutely amazing and it will make the call of duty expierence dreadful. Part of the online expierence is leveling up and getting better guns. This weekend is double points weekend so every time you get a kill you get double the points allowing you to level up twice as fast.

Personally I've never played the campaign mode in 4 but i've played co-op mode in world at war. Once you beat number 5 you get the nazi zombie mode which is absolutely beast. You will try to beat it which there is no end to but it is just so much fun.

Best Xbox 360 Games

RSV2

1)Many of you may not know what that stands for and I'm going to tell you. It is the title of one of the greatest video games ever made. Rainbow Six Vegas 2 for the xbox 360. This is the latest in the series of games based off of the book Rainbow Six by Tom Clancy.

The story line is that an anti-terrorist group is out to stop terrorist. The game is jaw dropping and is very addictive to say the least. I can't tell you how many hours I've spent playing this game with friends and by myself.

One of the best parts of RSV2 is xbox live. Though live cost 50 bucks a year it would be worth it even if you only played this game. This game never gets boring and there is always someone that can give you some competition.

Gears of War (Series)

Right when you here the name Gears of War you should think to things. For sure you should think intensity. I seriously can't think of any game that is more intense than Gears of War or Gears of War 2. 2 being more intense pretty much to the level where it makes you pee your pants.

The second thing that you should think would be graphics. Gears brings a whole new level of high quality graphics. You pretty much feel like you're right in their on the battle field with your team.

The third think I like about Gears is the campaign mode. You can spend countless hours playing this and never get bored. A good feature about it is the check points. Just about every time you slaughter a group of locusts it saves. You never end up losing any data.

The last to know about Gears is the xbox live. The gears of war series brings up a whole new generation of xbox live. The interface is insane and online is super addictive. Gears of war is a great game.

Rivalries

There are many great rivalries in sports. One of the greatest rivalries ever would have to be in the N.B.A. The rivalry is between The Los Angeles Lakers and the Boston Celtics.

The Celtics and Lakers have been dominating the N.B.A. ever since the franchises have begun. Winning a combined total of over half of the Championships ever one. I would have to say the rivalry began when each team had a dominate big man. Those big men were Bill Russell and Wilt Chamberlain. Wilt Chamberlain was a bit better in my opinion but Wilt also was the first and only player ever to score 100 points in a single 48 minute game.

The rivalry continued in the era of Larry Bird and Magic Johnson. They battled in the N.B.A. championship many times adding to each franchises total banners. Both teams had hall of fame coaches, Red Aurbach and Pat Riley. Pat Riley just retired a few years ago and Red a few years before him.

The new era began just last summer when the Boston Celtics faced the Lakers in the N.B.A. finals. The Celtics earlier that year added Kevin Garnett and Ray Allen to their roster. Making them a force to be reckoned with in the east and earning their spot in the championship. Kobe led the Lakers scoring around 30 a game in the regular season. With the addition of Pau Gasol (a seven foot beast) to the line-up, only made Kobe's job easier.

The seven game series began in the Boston Garden and the fans were not to be disapointed. The Celtics held on to win the game by a score of 98 to 88. The next four games were split and the Celtics were up 3-2 heading back home for game six. The whole game was won by the Celtics and the demolished them by a final score of 131-92. A 39 point victory, the largest in a title clinching game in N.B.A. history.

This year the Lakers are back and with Andrew Bynum back on the roster, and they're ready to get back to the finals, this time to come home with the trophy.
