I've seen this one. It's funny how the game is paused when the manager goes to the mound.

By the way, RBI Baseball is the equivalent of Tecmo Super Bowl - both were the first truly really good games for that sport with real teams/players.

No digitized sports figure will ever rise to the dominance of Super Tecmo Bowl Bo Jackson. Unstoppable.

You been enjoying your hockey postseason thus far?

that's hilarious. i hadn't seen that before. the sad thing is i was glued to it.

and yeah, bo was great. but the fat guy in nintendo hockey was the most unstobbable force ever. gimme 3 fat guys and a skinny guy to take the face-offs and i'll crush anybody

Nothing can beat this video of Bobby Knight cursing up a storm and throwing things during the taping of some old golf show he did.
