The world’s greatest mascot will grace the cover of the 2009 NCAA Football game for Wii, which basically means I’m obligated to pick up a copy as a loyal Spartan fan.
Okay, so I was probably going to buy this anyway, but come on… this is pretty sweet.
I haven’t bought a football game for any video game console since Tecmo Super Bowl way back in the day, so I’m not sure if I’ll be able to handle all these high falutin’, whiz-bang graphics.
Who knows though, maybe I’ll be able to break some of the records I set back during my Tecmo days: +3,000 yards for Barry Sanders, 120 sacks for Michael Cofer, etc. I bet I could do some serious damage with Javon Ringer, although Brian Hoyer might be a liability. I’m sure his digital doppelganger will be just as disappointing as the flesh and blood version.
Anyway, I can’t wait to plunk down $50 on this bad boy when it comes out in July. I’m sure I’ll want to waste all sorts of time indoors playing video games in the middle of a beautiful summer.

I don’t have a Wii, but I helped put Sparty on the cover during their online vote. GO GREEN! GO WHITE!
