FIFA 12

I have been on a mad sprint to make products for an upcoming craft show at one of the schools I work at... I won't have nearly enough made in time. Fortunately, I've decided to make a catalogue and hopefully I can get some custom orders!

On the bright side, soccer season is officially over. Speaking of soccer, have any of you played FIFA 12? I got it for my XBox... it's ADDICTIVE!!! I made my own player. He's a super hot ginger. I'll have to share a pic :) They let you customize a person just like the Sims, so I spent over an hour just customizing my guy. He plays for DC United. I need to figure out how to demand more money. He makes $10k per week, but he's work $5.5mil. How unfair is that?

Sitting at my middle school soccer games, watching the never-ending suckiness that is the ball handling skill of and 11 year old, I couldn't help but keep thinking about FIFA and how my guy can rock the ball :D My only complaint about the game is that I can't sub my guy. He injured his knee at the start of a game, and I spent the whole game limping around, unable to run, and my manager wouldn't sub me! And we were up 10-0!

Worse even, the "knee injury" he'd suffered was a hyperextended knee. That's a mechanisim of injury, not an injury. It can cause torn ACLs, muscle strains, etc. I was very peeved. Did they think people working in sports medicine wouldn't play it? What an annoying oversight!

Nevertheless, it's an awesome game! I haven't been able to play much yet, but I will hopefully have some free time this weekend!
