Football is clearly inferior to every other sport.
I'm actually hoping Rangers get kicked out of the SPL. If they were allowed straight back in, it would set a hideous precedent for other clubs. They'd basically be saying "Okay, you can <expletive> all your money away with no consequence". At least if they were sent down to Division 3 or whatever, it might spur other football clubs to actually be sensible with money for a change.
From what I know, Rangers and Celtic are the only teams who have a chance of winning the SPL. As such they cannot kick Rangers out, because then the football there would become even worse somehow.

If I have a car by then, I shall have my first drive-by shooting.

Oh Garvin's turned to the non-troll side of the GTM?
Coolio.

Valencia, Silverstone, Hockenheim, Hungaroring...Sauber might do quite well in the next few races. We could see Kobayashi on the podium in one of them, I reckon. He was running second in Canada last year when the red flag came out, that's the thing I remember.
Banzai Koboyashi tends to do well at his home race as well near the end of the year. You never know...

Kovalainen's driving the Caterham.  Glock's in the Marussia. But yeah, I think Kovalainen may score exactly 2 points this season, if he gets a decent amount of luck. But no more than that, the Caterham is clearly too slow to consistently contend for points. Marussia should do better than HRT, I reckon, but it all depends on position finishes.
Naaaaaah, HRT actually have a future, with their shiny new HQ and De La Rossa, test driver extrodinaire. Expect Marussia to be legitimately passed by HRT by the end of the year, and then to be out of the sport not too long after.

Yeah, Glock drives for Marussia...

Kovalainen needs to go back to a decent team, he deserves to be able to race.
Too true, same for Glock. Would be great if he managed to drag that Caterham into the points though, I could see that happening this year.

Grosjean won't win it this year, he's still too inexperienced, but he is definately a prospect for the future.
Lotus Enstone GP are my favourite team really, they always try to innovate, and although their upper management is atrocious, leading to their name changes every other season, they are a very talented team of engineers.
Sauber is my favorite this year. Perez is doing great considering how he used to get treated like crap as people thought he bought his way into the team. Kobayashi's always been pretty good, too.
Still, if Grosjean really makes a push he could do really well this year. My current hope for a winner is either Webber, Alonso or Grosjean (I was thinking Rosberg or Räikkönen could make it but they're being inconsistent this season. If Räikkönen steps up to the challenge the next few races he could do very well).
Sauber's probably my second favourite team (HRT are close nehind I think).
I don't think Perez was ever that badly criticised, he's not a pay driver, he just brings a good chunk of sponsorship, and he was a part of Ferrari's young driver development program for a reason, which he is showing wonderfully this year. Sauber have the best driver combo IMO, and a good solid car as well.
I don't see Grosjean being able to beat Kimi this year at all. Enstone have historically struggled with development in comparisson to the other teams around them (don't forget last year, at the start of the season, they had a car which was capable of achieving podiums, even in the hands of an average driver, but by the end of the year they were barely faster than the Caterhams) and while Raikkonen has in the past dragged the best out of poor cars, while Grosjean has not.
Even if the car does remain up to standards, Raikkonen is as cool as they come, while I can see Grosjean buckling under the pressure of the new prospects that have been placed on him.
Grosjean will have his chance, against Perez in a few years time.
That, I would like to see. I'm wondering if we could maybe throw Di Resta in there as a third candidate. He's had some pretty solid races this year, in a car that's not really as good as it was last year. But he's still scoring points, and doing a good job running in points positions for some races. No podiums yet, but he's still doing a very good job. Maybe he'll take Schumacher's Mercedes seat in a couple years' time.
I don't rate him as highly as some people seem to, he's shown himself to be a decent driver though so far, but he will improve further once he gets that Mercedes seat (Schumacher needs to be kicked out as soon as possible, I know he's had horrible luck, but there are still many drivers who would do better with that seat).

Well we'll see how everything goes for Nintendo when it's released, for now, it's just wait and see where they take it next.
I agree with the comment about fanboys though (despite being at heart a massive Sega fan), too often companies or games are branded automatically based simply on which company has produced it, or on the current gaming trends the market has bought into.
Anyway, i'll stop rambling now.
In terms of uses for the Wii-U, A sequel to Eternal Darkness could be amazing.

So the Canadian Formula 1 race is now over. Who would have put money on THAT podium?
Yeah, but it does seem to be the nature of this season.
I reckon that's a good thing, though. It's better than a Schumacher/Ferrari or Vettel/RBR combination dominating the season, because then it just becomes boring and tedious.
Raikkonen to win this year. Please.

solitanze over at the ign board thought up this that i found interesting:

also my thoughts on why watch Dogs should be on Wii U:
(Image removed from quote.)
The problem is, you're still breaking immersion by making the player have to look away from their TV screens, and on to the little screen on the controller.
It's not adding realism or helping the action of gameplay, really it's just breaking the realism and immersion of the game in a different way.
I think touch controls could be the way of the future for games, but I also think that Nintendo have taken the wrong approach to it.
you're not breaking immersion at all imo, your character goes to use his hacking device then what it would look like to your character appears in your hands, it'll make you feel more like the main character and less like someone controlling pixels on a screen. You looking at the screen would be exactly like your character looking at his, how is that not more realistic and immersive then a UI that pops-up on the screen?
how is nintendo going the wrong way with touch controls? a touch screen is really the only logical form of touch control you can have for a gaming console. Nintendo also has no control over how game developers choose to use the touch screen all they have done is give them the option to use it however they want.
A touch screen allows for controls to be built around a program, that's the major benefit (the only real benefit other than "oh look at me I am fingering the screen of my electronic device"). If touch screen technology is as advanced as many companies are saying, why not then base the whole controls system around the concept rather than just slapping a big ass screen in the middle of a controller and using it for some more artificial set pieces, or some extra menus. It seems to me like the WiiUs controller is going to be treated the same way the DS controls system ended up being treated. This could be avoided if they sort out their software management, but I haven't seen any evidence of them doing so so far (but i could be wrong in that respect, given their losses this year, I imagine Nintendo must be doing something to rectify the problems they suffered from last gen.)

Werp, upload a video on it, then we'll see.
