Sports are diagnosed, analyzed and picked apart for every statistic imaginable. Every number is considered and memorized and too often recited by their fans. Since sports are considered at every angle on the field, why not judge it for how they look while playing? From polos to speedos, sports are played in enough outfits to [...]
Back when the gaming industry was in its infancy, only sprites and pixels made up the games’ characters and they were nothing more than a gun or moving object on a 2-D plane of existence. It was up to the player to give the avatar a set of personality traits and goals. The avatar’s true [...]

These days there can be duets, trios, mash-ups, or original song collaborations on any layman’s playlist. The trend of a “two-for” has [...]
