Phrank: Welt-free!

Siblings, I have a question for you. What's it like to get punished? I don't know since I've never been punished. Which makes me the only sibling not to miss a post or break any of the rules. The closest I've ever come to violating the rules was a slight debate on swearing. As we conclude the 7th month of posting, it's an honor to be that guy, that guy who follows the rules.

Manny Ramirez got traded today, and it looks like so far that the Red Sox were quite determined to get rid of him. Looks like Hansen and Moss got sucked into this maelstrom of a deal, which I think kinda sucks, I liked watching Moss play. Though this guy, Bay, that we're picking up looks like he'll be really good for the us, so I'm glad. It will be very strange watching the Red Sox and not having Manny being Manny. The comparison of this trade to Nomar's trade in 2004 is interesting. I didn't really watch much baseball back in 2004, so that trade had little impact on me. I remember our cousin Jake Traynor was devastated by it. I wonder what he thinks of the Manny deal.

We've gone too long without a challenge, 2 full weeks, so here's an easy one for next week. Pick the video game you hate the most, and explain why. At least one sentence to identify the game and one sentence elaborating why you hate the game. Please vote in your comment on my post. I'll give you a hint, I will certainly be wright to pick it as my favorite, and this game won't be rising from the ashes of its miserable existence.

I accept the challenge as well.
And as a bonus to all others I shall, mock and torment "Phrank" while sitting on his own computer. What does it feel like to be alone and not with the rest of the pack, what does it mean to be "that guy" Phrank knows and no one else cares. While sitting here I was offered a bribe not to rebut the trash that spills onto the web, but I am stronger than that. I am a hero! What do you say to that!

You "torment" and "mock" me with my permission, and only by my permission. No one else wants to let you use their computer! It saddens me that you revel in your fallen state and poke fun at the only consistent blogger. Yeah, I may not deliver incredibly witty and entertaining posts every week, but you do know that I post every week. I take on every challenge, and pass them, no matter how ridiculous you make them. I comment on every single post, because I think people enjoy seeing comments, no matter how short. So yeah, I would say I'm winning the blog.

And to think I started the blog to bring us together...

I accept the challenge, and I shun you for picking Phoenix Wright as the game you hate the most.

Who said I was picking Phoenix Wright?

I personally think this challenge is absolutely stupid... but since everyone else accepted it, I will do it.

What you like is only half of a reflection of who you are, what you hate is the other half. It's a simple and easy challenge. Geez, you all seem really pissed on this post.
