Sports: John Madden retiring? But who will bring Turducken to the masses?

  • *Sob* It’s true. The football color commentary icon, who is 73, is now hanging up his mic. He only had a major video game franchise and a long history of saying crazy things under his belt. Man, we just don’t know what we’re going to do anymore. He’s like an icon of everything wrong – and right – with America. source

Tech: Sony cuts the price of the wrong Playstation console

  • $99 for the PS2. April 1st. Who cares? OK, OK, we know. The Playstation 2 was only the most popular console of all time, until recently. But it’s not like anyone cares that much about the thing anymore, not when there’s a console war going on, and they have a PS3 that costs $399, $150 more than its biggest competition. This is why you’re getting killed in the marketplace, dudes. source
