Still Figuring This Out

As I mentioned when we first fired the generators back up a few weeks, things around here are going to be a little different.  And while we are working hard to find the right balance of time, the GameTime, TBD© are not up and running at full speed yet. We are still trying to figure somethings out. Unfortunately, that means there will not be a full Link Dump for you this week.

That being said, as with the days of old, we do not want to leave you completely empty handed on a Friday.  We thought it might be fun to give you a little conversation starter for you and your friends this weekend.  You know what has been going around lately? The pregnancy bug.  A lot of famous ladies (and not-so-famous, but equally awesome, ladies) are expecting; some sooner than others.  And several of these ladies are favorites around these parts of the world wide web.  So we thought, what better way to you through your Friday than with a round of Marry-[Censored]-Kill: The Pregnancy Edition.  Now, do not fear, we are not going to put any pictures up here of round bellies.  Your choice will be made pre-baby bump.  [Editor's Note: who loves you?]  Though, admittedly, one of our contestants looks quite striking with her bump.  So I ask you, dear readers, of the following three choices, who would you marry, [censored], and kill:  (1) Marisa Miller; (b) Kristen Bell; and (iii) Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge (fka Kate Middleton . . . nothing like a little royalty).

Now, with the year coming to an end, the internet becomes inundated with "best of" lists, "top __" lists, etc.  And some people actually get pretty creative with there entries.  So, for your viewing pleasure, we bring you an incredibly well put together eight-minute mash-up of the fifty (50) most popular pop songs of 2012.

 Have a great weekend everyone!

How Does This Work Again?

[*dusts off keyboard*]

How does one go about apologizing to his thousands hundreds dozens handful of loyal readers after inexcusably disappearing for over a year?

Well, for starters, I think I would say that if you are actually here reading this, I truly appreciate you sticking around all this time.  Then, I would let you know about how painful this past year was, both in terms of not being able to bring you the Pulitzer-worthy writings you had grown to love and expect from my little corner of the world wide web, and the actual reason I became so suddenly unavailable.  Finally, I would tell you how sorry I am, hope you can forgive me, and promise I am a changed man and that things will be better than they were before my indiscretion (cause, you know, apparently this is now also Lifetime's next drama about a lover scorned . . . don't worry, I didn't spend the last year trying to make up for sins committed against My Better Half; a wise man knows when he has massively out-kicked his coverage and does everything in his power not to screw that up.)

Long story short, people left our firm, which resulted in a little game I like to call "Shuffle the Associates."  Now, I work by a motto my father taught me: "Work Hard; Have Fun; Make Money."  The theory is, if you work hard, and have a little fun while doing it, you are going to be successful (make money).  Well, when the game came to an end, I end up being assigned to partner of firm whose motto, if he had one, would be: "Work Hard, Work Harder, You're Not Working Hard Enough, WHAT'S YOUR PROBLEM WITH WORK?"  This might come as a surprise to you, but it turns out that is (1) not a fun environment to work in, (b) may cause some employees to resent you; and (iii) does not create a very productive work experience (shocking, right?).  While I never let it break me, it certainly did restrict my ability to enjoy the creative outlet that is GameTime, TBD©.  I kept fighting the good fight, grinding it out, and eventually I was able to find my way onto a team with a partner whose operating philosophy is more in line with mine.  In the words of William Wallace . . . FREEDOM!!!!!!!

Now, I can not guarantee it will be business as usual around these parts.  I have got to find my mojo again; and there will certainly be times when work gets in the way; but I love sharing my wisdom with you all too much to not make this happen.  So much has happened in the past year, I have plenty of ideas on how to make GameTime, TBD© better than ever, both in terms of user experience and content.  In just writing these first few paragraphs, I can already feel the excitement returning.  So stick around, it is bound to be a great show.

Well I finish getting things back up and running, reaching out to my contacts, and crafting my battle plan for continuing world domination, here are some things you might have missed from the past week to get you through your Friday afternoon.  That is right, my dear readers, it is Link Dump time:
  • It is rivalry week here in Los Angeles, so naturally this and this happened.  GO BRUINS!
  • Dear NCAA, Just a friendly reminder that your mission is to protect student athletes and their future.  Kthxbye.
  • Somewhere Herm Edwards is reminding people "You PLAY. TO WIN. THE GAME."
  • When do the owners cancel Gary Bettman's life?
  • Surprising absolutely no one, this happened at a Cleveland Browns game.  Oh, Cleveland.
  • Last time I checked a map, Cincinnati and Louisville were west of Philadelphia.  Did someone re-align the country again without telling me?   
  • Hey bro, probably should have thought this one through a little more before going to print.
  • Not very often you can say a team scored 104 points in a high school football game and did not run up the score.
  • With Thanksgiving right around the corner, the end of the year is nearly upon.  And that means all those "Best of the Year" lists the Chief hates so much.  Like this one, that proves sports and innuendos go hand-in-hand.
  • Speaking of Thanksgiving, that means it is time for Black Friday sales.  If you are headed to Williams Sonoma, here is some advice.
  • In non-sports related news, do yourself a favor and check out the image.
I guess it is true what they say, some things in life truly are just like riding a bike.  You get back on and get going. [Editor's Note: that's what she said!]  It feels really good to be back in the driver's seat, so let us keep this party train moving forward.  First we tickled your brain, now we tickle your eyes . . . and may a few other places:
  • When we last spoke, "model" Melanie Iglesias was flipbooking her way into your heart with some Halloween costumes.  As luck would have, she released a new flipbook today in an effort to untz-untz her way back into your heart.
  • What, was Rebecca Black not available?
  • I am sorry, what?
  • Nice tats boss . . . oh, and that goal was pretty solid too.  [Editor's Note: speaking of tats, wow . . . just wow . . .]
  • You see . . . I . . . uh . . . well . . .
  • Exactly how does one break a rib and three vertebrae?  Oh, that does not look like fun.
  • Current favorite word of the week: equinophobia.
  • What do you get when cross the Galapagos Islands with the Miss Reef calendar girls?  One ass-tastic piece of art.
Man, it feels good to be back.  Have a great weekend everyone!

Big Boy Work Day

As you all know by now, an early edition of GameTime, TBD©'s world-renowned (might be a slight exaggeration) Link Dump is never a good sign.  Unfortunately, the Chief is off doing "big boy" work today, so we are without our fearless leader.
But do not think you are going to be left completely empty-handed on this fine Friday.  Before heading out the door this morning, the Chief proclaimed: "It's Halloween weekend.  Make sure they at least get a pic of a celebrity in a sexy Halloween costume and some Halloween-related videos or something."  What a guy, right?  Always looking out you, our dear readers.
After significant "research", it turns out there are not a lot of A-list celebrities who have been photographed wearing your average "Slutty _______" costume.  That was quite upsetting.  We refuse to associate the likes of Kim Kardashian and Paris Hilton with this classy establishment, so that has brought us to Annalyne McCord of [*googles Annalyne McCord*] the new 90210 fame.  Ms. McCord wins out because she rocked a sexy Batgirl for Halloween back in 2009 and, since we are comic book nerds (shocking, I know), that works for us.
As for the videos, well, we will just let them speak for themselves:
  • In non-Halloween fail-related news, (1) a trampoline-to-pool jump ends with predictable results, and (b) not exactly the type of impression you want to make at freshmen orientation.
  • Melanie Iglesias is "famous" for being a "model" and making "flipbook-style" videos of her changing in and out of clothing.  She was nice enough to make a "Halloween Edition" of the flipbook video, which is nice because she apparently considers bikinis to be acceptable "costumes".  [Editor's Note: new record for excessive quotation mark usage . . . go us!]
  • Some people have way too much time on their hands.  Thankfully, some of those some people use their time for awesomeness.
Have a great weekend everyone!  Ladies, do not forget to treat your men to that "Slutty ________" costume they have been not-so-subtly hinting at for the past month.

Down, But Not Out

Unfortunately, it looks like things will be dark at the GameTime, TBD© offices for the next couple of weeks.  Sadly, "actual work" is going to prevent us from getting you a Link Dump this week.  Plus, the end of summer comes next week in the form of Labor Day, and The Chief is off to Seattle to spend one final weekend with his friends celebrating the summer that was.  So we will be down for the next couple weeks.
But do not think for one second that we are going to send you off empty handed.  Usually at this point in time, we throw up a picture of an attractive female celebrity, usually blond, to help provide at least some of you (read: all male readers and those female readers that are awesome) a little pleasure for your Friday grind.  Well, a few of our readers commented that they felt uncomfortable reading our Link Dump because they did not know if, once the page loaded, there would be a huge picture of a scantily-clad hottie for all to see on their office computer.  So, as proof that we do take your feed back very seriously, and definitely do not want to negatively impact your ability to enjoy our site at all times, we will no longer be throwing up random pictures of scantily-clad attractive women, usually blond.  Instead, we will either provide you with a link to a picture of a scantily-clad attractive woman, usually blond, or embed a video of the same.
For our first go-round of this new strategy, we have a video.  Now, the video does not really need an introduction, but you are getting one nonetheless.  I had a dream last night and, while some of details of said dream are hazy at best, one part really stands out.  In my dream, My Better Half's entire wardrobe consisted of lingerie; and for some reason it was not seen as a sexual thing because it was just her wardrobe.  She was a kept woman in the dream, so she did not have to wear lingerie to work.  But, going to the grocery store? Cooking dinner? Going to the mall?  Nothing like a chemise and thigh-highs to get you through the day.  Now, anyone who knows us knows that I severely out kicked my coverage with My Better Half; certified smokeshow.  So in real life, this would not work because we would never leave our house.  But in dream land? I certainly am not going to complain.  And when I thought about what might have been the impetus for this dream (besides a general desire to see My Better Half in lingerie more often), I realized I had the video we are using to appease you all to thank.  Yes, it is two minutes and forty seconds of a behind-the-scenes look at a Sara Jean Underwood lingerie shoot (would you look at that, attractive female, usually blond . . . go figure).  You.  Are.  Welcome.

Have a great weekend everyone!

Site News: What Happened to that Vacation?

[Editor's Note: as you all know by now, anytime the words "Site News" appear in the title, bad news is coming . . . ]
A funny thing happened last week: we went on vacation. It. Was. Marvelous.  Eighty-one and sunny in late-February?  Yes, please.  But you know what was crazy?  Apparently the rest of the world felt the need to keep on working.  Did they not get the memo?  Vacation.  [Editor's Note: well, apparently the LA Metro maintenance workers got the memo because my 20-minute delay on the train ride into this office this morning certainly didn't help our chances of getting anything of substance prepared for you.  Seriously, though, don't they know I have readers to entertain? . . . but I digress . . . ]
So, while we were on vacation, enjoying the sun, a cocktail or two (or twenty), and thinking of new and great ways to improve GameTime, TBD©, the rest of the world was acting out in pure jealousy.  Ever wonder what the Leaning Tower of Pisa looks like in person?  Well, I could have saved you the expensive plane ticket to Italy.  The stack of work waiting for me when I returned defied the laws of physics.  That said, I have been forced to spend the week catching up on more work than I care to admit, all while putting out the fires that manage to pop up on a weekly.  If ever there was a week I really wanted to win the lottery, this is it.
Unfortunately, that means we will not be able to provide you with the one thing you look forward to most every Friday.  What? No, calm down people.  The weekend will still get here.  And to be honest, I am a little insulted (yet, also flattered that you think we here at GameTime, TBD© have that much power). No, no.  We are unable to provide you with a full Link Dump.  Epic. Fail.
But you also know by now that we are never willing to leave you completely empty-handed.  That is right, per usual, we hope to make it up to you with a hot chick and some funny videos.  We figured that by now you were tired of picture after picture of attractive blonds like Marisa Miller, Kristen Bell, and Blake Lively, so we decided to mix things up this week and go with a picture of . . . well . . . attractive blond Kate Upton, the blog-o-sphere's consensus pick as the hottest new addition to the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue:

Seriously though, any one else think their guidance counselor failed them by not mentioning fashion photographer as a career option?
As for the videos, we obviously have many to catch up on, seeing as with missed a whole week.  So you can bet that next week there will an extra long video portion of the Link Dump.  But for now, we hope these seven will do:
  • In case you were wondering, America's dominance over Canada extends all the way to soccer.
  • As if this course was not crazy of enough for a BMXer, the throw in a dog.
  • Remember that dude who got dumped by his girlfriend after he let her get hit by a ball at an Astros's game last summer?  It was probably for the best.
  • Anyone else think The Onion managed to hire actual pedophiles for this news piece?
  • Holy cheerleader spazz out, Batman!
  • Any guess at who the slowest runner at the NFL combine was?
  • It is the new workout we should all be doing, especially with those who are already doing it.
Have a great weekend everyone!

FAIL

This is a dark, dark day for the folks here at GameTime, TBD©.  For the first time ever, we will be unable to bring you, our avid readers, your Friday escape, lovingly referred to as the Link Dump, for a second week in a row.  Fail.
But rest assured we will NEVER leave you completely empty-handed on a Friday.  Not even a crazy day of "actual work" will stop us from making sure you have at least some entertainment for your Friday afternoon.  For starters, instant visual gratification in the former of Accepted/Gossip Girl/Green Lantern-hottie Blake Lively:

She certainly is easy on the eyes . . . and proof that, yes, The Chief has an obvious "type".  Rest assured My Better Half meets that type.
Also, in light of our fail, we thought we would "celebrate" with a few videos of . . . well . . other people's fails:
  • With this week's revelations about Tony Parker and Eva Longoria, I think it is safe to now call this a fail.
  • Nothing brings out the fail like wedding introductions.
  • Here is a nice "Is that goal regulation size?" fail.
  • St. Louis Blues's goalie Jaroslav Halak allowed a total of twelve thirteen goals in back-to-back starts earlier this week thanks to our little friend fail.
  • We do not usually post Christmas-related items until after Thanksgiving . . . but some fails require immediate posting.
Have a great weekend everyone!

Down, But Not Out

Hello everyone.  The Chief has half marthon number two this weekend up in Northern California, so unfortunately we will not be able to bring you your weekly salvation, commonly referred to as the Link Dump.  But do you know what that means?  Of course you do, a picture of a ridonkulously attractive woman for your viewing pleasure:

Also, we do have a couple things to share with you briefly. First, most of you have probably heard about the one-letter solve from Wheel of Fortune from this past week, so here is an interesting article on the woman who pulled it off (with the video for those of you who haven't seen it).  Second, though we may be down for the day, we will always get back up . . . just like this girl.


Have a great weekend everyone!

Actual Sick Day

Unfortunately, the GameTime, TBD© household has been ravaged by a fierce cold over the course of this past week. In fact, both My Better Half and The Chief got sent home from work early during the week by their respective bosses because their colds were that bad. We checked in with The Chief this morning and he said that an afternoon under the care of Dr. Elliot Reid had really helped, he was feeling significantly better, and he would be back to full strength hopefully by the end of the weekend so that all systems would be a go next week.

So, while we do not have any official
Link Dump for you today, we thought a picture of Dr. Elliot Reid might help make you feel better on this Friday as well:


Have a great weekend everyone!

It's A Celebration

Well, my dear readers, it is a week of celebration here around the GameTime, TBD© offices. Today, my Better Half is celebrating her [censored] birthday and tomorrow, we culminate two years of hard work on her part as she graduates from UCLA with a Masters Degree in Public Health.

Unfortunately, all of this celebrating is going to leave us with no time to get out our weekly dose of entertainment, otherwise known as the
Link Dump, for you tomorrow. But we did not want to leave you empty handed like we may have done a couple weeks ago. Since this post is in honor of my Better Half and her birthday, I offered her the opportunity to pick a picture to tide people over for the next week; you know, give our lady-readers something to appreciate. I told her to pick one of her "Celebrity 5". So, here is our offering to you, in honor of my Better Half. She would like you all to take a moment and enjoy a look or two at Kristen Bell . . . wait, what? Nice!


Everything is right in the world. The sun rose in the east this morning (I think), USC got what it deserved (and then some) from the NCAA, and my Better Half wants to spend her birthday oogling pictures of Kristen Bell (and send my fantasy radar to record levels). If some one could please figure out what I did to deserve all this awesomeness, and let me know, I would greatly appreciate it.

Seriously people, this week can not get any better. Oh wait . . . it can.

To all of our avid readers, have a great weekend!

To my Better Half, "congratulalations", happy birthday, I love you.

Ever Heard of a Calendar?

So there we were, at our "office" meeting last weekend. My Better Half had prepared some nice homemade treats and put some beer on ice. The Chief was settled in, ready to watch some sports and lay out GameTime, TBD©'s strategy for surviving the dog days of summer. Believe you me, he has got some great ideas. It will not be long before we are back providing you the kind of hard-hitting, insightful, revolutionary content you all became so accustomed to. And the Chief was ready to lay it all for you, the avid readers, in this week's Link Dump. That is when I had to ask the tough question: have you looked at the calendar Chief?

At first I thought I was going to lose my job. But the Chief . . . he is a gentle soul. Plus, I think he realized it was more his oversight than anyone else's. The oversight I am referring to is this. Tomorrow the cast and crew of GameTime, TBD© are headed to Music City, USA (that's Nashville if you didn't know) for Agman's wedding. We only had to change our hotel reservations twice in light of the recent flooding, but everything else is a go. And we have remembered to pack our floaties just in case the water decides it wants to come out and play some more. And just when he seemed to be coming to terms with a one week delay for the 'big reveal" (Editor's Note: that's what she said!), I had to remind him that next week his actual office retreat. I can not say I have ever officially delivered a cock punch, but this could definitely be the closest I have ever come. That was when the "office" meeting went from battle plans to beer pong, and beer pong turned into a long Sunday morning on the golf course.

Please do not shoot the messenger, but we have to delay our . . . um . . . reboot for a few weeks. The Chief is putting the finishing touches on his season review and promised to finalize it during the plane ride home. So expect at least some fresh prospectives on life sometime next week. Unfortunately, you will have to live without an official Link Dump both this week and next. However, we do not want to leave you completely empty handed. Here are three videos to help you at least pass a little time on your Friday:
  • With all the silicone and saline in that room, those girls certainly do not have to worry about drowning in a flood.
  • Hoist his sack? Why do you think my Better Half is going to Nashville with me?
  • I will certainly never forget the epic "Cheating Wife Game".
Have a great weekend everyone!

Sorry

Howdy strangers. Did you miss us? We sincerely apologize for the extended absence. The Chief has been on the road a lot lately, and that has caused things to grind to screeching halt around. His busy travel schedule culminated with a bachelor party in New Orleans last weekend. Needless to say, he is still not playing at 100% (by Tuesday we were strongly considering a trip to the 15-day disabled list to open up a roster spot). The Chief has made several assurances he will be back to full strength by next Monday, but . . . well . . . it is the weekend and we have some concerns about his ability to call it an early night. Especially because Game Two of the Los Angeles Kings' opening round playoff series against the Vancouver Canucks goes down on Saturday night.

Although we do not have the time or resources available for a full post today, we promise to be back up and running at full capacity next week. That being said, the Chief requested three things for this post:

(1) A picture of Marisa Miller, because that usually makes everyone feel better.
Check.

(b) A link to a music video that is guaranteed to get you fired up for a great Friday.

Check.

(iii) That we some how find a way to reiterate just how much the Chief hates Randy Jones right now. For those of you who did not watch Game One last night, Randy Jones is the Kings' useless defenseman whose attempt at a blind backhanded pass across the center of the ice directly led to the Canucks' game winner. So here we go:

DAMN YOU RANDY JONES! HOPE YOU ENJOY RIDING THE BENCH. HAVE FUN IN THE MINORS FOR THE REST OF YOUR CAREER.

Check.

Have a great weekend everyone.

Hot Chick Friday

It is one of those sad Fridays when we here at GameTime, TBD© have actual "work" getting in our way. And with the likelihood of not having enough time to provide you with your weekly dose of fun and flare commonly known as the Link Dump, we are forced to appeal to the masses (and by masses we, of course, mean mostly our male readers and those female readers who don't mind checking out an attractive woman while thinking "yeah, if I swung that way I'd hit it" . . . we L-O, L-O, L-O-V-E those female readers, they're our favorite . . . but I digress) by posting a picture of hot chick and hoping you will find it in your hearts to forgive us.

The Chief pointed out that you are probably expecting a picture of Marisa Miller or Kate Beckinsale. And who would blame you? They are two of The Chiefs favorites, having proudly held down the top two spots of his "Celebrity 5" list for the last few years. But he decided to mix things up today, deciding instead to finally introduce to one of the remaining three on his list. So, without further adieu, we proudly present to you Kristen Bell, number three on The Chiefs "Celebrity 5" (and rumored to have made my Better Half's "Celebrity 5" . . . reason number eleventy billion why my Better Half is better than yours).



We offer Ms. Bell as our humble apology. As always, if the storm ends early, we will do our absolute best to get at least some links up. In the meantime, we hope Ms. Bell helps provide at least a little enjoyment to your Friday.

In the event we are unable to get back to you later today, we wanted to remind you, have a great weekend everyone!

P.S. Let's get fired up. Happy Friday!

This Sucks

I am sorry to say, the fine folks of GameTime, TBD© have been swamped and will not be able to get you your weekly dose of entertainment and news, more lovingly known as the Link Dump. We hope you can find it in your hearts to forgive us. We were looking forward to it because of all that has transpired this week (seriously, of all the weeks . . .). If by chance the storm breaks in the near future, we will see what we can do.

But rest assured, we will never leave you empty handed. Our lone offer this week is Stephen Colbert and Mark McGwire's case of "pussy eye" [

It is moving day for the GameTime, TBD© office. We are hoping the move goes smoothly so that we can get you your weekly Link Dump as soon as possible. Check back sometime this afternoon.

Thanks,

About That Link Dump . . .

Yes, I am leading with a photo of Marisa Miller. And I know what you are thinking: "That's not a good sign." Work will be preventing us from providing you with your Friday entertainment, otherwise known as GameTime, TBD©'s Link Dump. I thought this might be the case, but was hoping to find a way. Unfortunately, it was not meant to be. Rest assured, we will not send you away empty-handed. First, hopefully you noticed The Chief finally got around to posting that Kings season preview on Wednesday. Also, if you have a few minutes, feel free to check out the "Top 100 Most Searched-for Hotties on the Net" based on AOL's search engines. Finally, here are a few clips for your viewing pleasure (just in case Marisa up there wasn't providing enough):
Have a great weekend everyone!

Site News: No Go

Just wanted to give everyone a heads up that there will be no Link Dump this week. The Chief's firm's annual retreat is this weekend, so he has to be down in San Diego tomorrow morning. Sorry for the inconvenience.

To make it up to you (or at least to the male GameTime, TBD© readers), here is a picture of Marisa Miller for you to stare at for an uncomfortably long period of time:


Well, it is probably safe to say that we are toeing the line with our "family friendly" policy on that one. Oh well. If you are interested in more Marisa (and who isn't?), this site might be helpful.

Just a couple quick items of note before we head out. The Chief would be absolutely appalled if we left our avid readers (both male and female alike this time) with out some sort of entertainment for their Friday afternoons. So, here are some videos to help you out:
Also, remember a few weeks back when we told you all to go over to MLB.com and vote Manny Ramirez in as a starter for the All-Star Game? Well, apparently we were not the only ones who thought that would be funny and the idea is picking up some momentum. So remember to go and vote!

Have a great weekend everyone!

Site News

Dear Avid GameTime, TBD© Readers,

You know what the problem with being a pro bono blogger is? Sometimes your non-pro bono
work gets in the way of your pro bono work. I am sorry to say that is the case this week. My non-pro bono job has been kicking my you-know-what this week and, unfortunately that leaves me with no time for new content and, more unfortunately, no time for your weekly Link Dump. I truly do apologize.

But, you know, it is probably for the best because, as I was driving into work this morning (in my hot Nissan Sentra . . . I'll probably cruise Downtown during my lunch break to pick up chicks . . . it's that hot, borderline on fire . . . nothing say hot like manual rear view mirrors . . . but I digress), Jay Glazer was on the DP Show breaking news that the Lions and Matthew Stafford had reached an agreement on the guaranteed money in his potential contract. He was not saying it was a done deal, but all signs point to Stafford being the number one overall pick tomorrow. That is just awesome; man, I am stoked. The Lions clearly have got their ship righted and are moving in the right direction. Oh, and this weekend I have a date with Marisa Miller.

Sorry, I am just a little frustrated by this news. But I do not want you to be left completely empty-handed on this Friday. So here is one link that should at least provide you with some entertainment this afternoon. We promise to back on track next week. Thanks for understanding.

Best regards,

The Chief

Going Dark . . .

Hello all. I am sincerely sorry nothing new has been going on here at GameTime, TBD© over the past few weeks.

As most of you know, my Better Half and I are t-minus eight days from our wedding. We are both very excited, very busy, and a little stressed (but mostly excited). Over the last few weeks we have both been working to make sure every last little detail is taken care of so that the big day goes off without so our family and friends will have a great time celebrating the occasion.

Between the wedding and work, my time has been stretched a little thin and, unfortunately, that means GameTime, TBD© has not been getting the time and attention it deserves. Unfortunately, this is only a one man show, so when time is scarce, my little corner of the world-wide-web suffers. I apologize to all of you who stop by every now and then looking for some afternoon entertainment.

It is also with great sadness that I must inform you that GameTime, TBD© is likely to be dark the entire month of August. This is mostly because next week will be jam packed with last minute wedding details, tying up any lose ends at work, and then getting married to the most amazing woman in the world. That, of course, will be followed by two weeks of newlywed fun on our honeymoon. And that, believe it or not, takes me through August. Where does the time go.

I thank you for all of your continued comments and support and hope that you will continue to check in come September. There will be a lot to get to at that point in time with college football starting up and the hockey season right around the corner. So remember to bookmark this page and check in late August/early September. I will still be here.

Thanks again!

The Management.

Site News

Some of you may have noticed the new section in the right hand column entitled "Drop Us a Line".

To make this site more interactive, the "folks" here at GameTime, TBD© decided it was time to find a way to let the readers have more of an input into what goes down around here. That being the case, I felt the best idea would be to create an email address at which you can . . . wait for it . . . wait for it . . . drop us a line.

Being the genius I am, I decided an email account would be the best and easiest means of accomplishing this new goal; being the uber-genius I am, I decide on the incredibly original and creative email address GameTimeTBD@gmail.com.

So, do you have a topic you would like to see discussed here? a video or article you think is worthy of the Friday Link Dump? know a semi-celebrity/athlete I could interview (I mean, I'd take an actual celebrity/athlete if you've got one for me)? know of a female worthy of some vintage GameTime, TBD© praise? have a general comment about life in general? think I am doing a great job and want to let me know? or think I am doing an awful job and want to let me know? If you answered "yes" to any of the first six questions, go ahead and drop us a line at GameTimeTBD@gmail.com. If you answered "yes" to that last question, then screw you, I rule . . . just kidding . . . you are also welcome to drop us a line (I fully support the First Amendment).

Who knows, if I like what you write, I just might have to steal it . . . err, I mean . . . quote you.
