I\u2019m inclined to agree.  For a first issue product that still has some tweaking issues, $35 does seem a bit much.  I\u2019ll probably wait until a few patches are released, but if BBCF was released at the $29 price point it would have been easier to justify the speculative purchase.  Yea, it\u2019s only a $6 difference, yet for some reason I don\u2019t have a problem wasting less than $30 on a game.  I\u2019m just odd that way.<\/p>\n<p>Speaking of odd, what\u2019s next at The \u201cBlog\u201d for the Sports Gamer?  Pop-up ads?<\/p>\n<p>The Jaguars\/Colts game should be interesting today.  I think expectations are low because Leftwich is out.  For some reason the Jaguars always play the Colts close.  I will be surprised if this trend doesn\u2019t continue today.<\/p>\n<p>I am going to Florida over the holidays for a couple of weeks.  Nothing scares an online gamer more then hearing your wife say \u201cWe\u2019re going to Florida for two weeks.\u201d  Why?  Because we\u2019re not staying in fancy hotels.  We\u2019re staying with family.  I\u2019m taking along my wireless router so that I can be a road warrior with my laptop.  Hopefully my in-laws won\u2019t be insulted when I start upgrading their networking.  I\u2019ll even be updating the World of Warcraft install on my laptop so that I can play it when I\u2019m gone.  WoW at 800\u00d7600 is better than no WoW at all.<\/p>\n<p>Such is life.<\/p>\n<div class=\"addtoany_share_save_container addtoany_content_bottom\"><div class=\"a2a_kit a2a_kit_size_ addtoany_list a2a_target\" id=\"wpa2a_1\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.addtoany.com\/share\" onclick=\"__gaTracker('send', 'event', 'outbound-article', 'https:\/\/www.addtoany.com\/share', '');\" class=\"a2a_dd addtoany_share_save\"><img src=\"https:\/\/www.calvertgames.com\/cgblog\/wp-content\/plugins\/add-to-any\/share_save_171_16.png\" width=\"171\" height=\"16\" alt=\"Share\"\/><\/a>\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\"><!--\nif(wpa2a)wpa2a.script_load();\n\/\/--><\/script>\n<\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>There is some discussion in the Grey Dog Software forums about the price of Bowl Bound College Football being very steep at $35.
