Had to watch it again Can't wait for next week

AoT

Beat Super C just now. It's been years it feels like since my last play through (which would have been on the 3DS VC, and my old 3DS has been my daughters for a looooong time now, so I guess it has been years ) Still my favourite NES game ever. I will never ever tire of it. I was a tad rusty to start but after a couple game overs it all came back to me. I still know this game inside and out.

Yep, Horimiya is still good. I really enjoyed this episode.

Forgot to reply to this bit earlier I will never find baseball boring, but I think the game - especially in the later innings - has gotten painfully slow. Sometimes it feels like there is absolutely no flow/rhythm to the game. There are some things that have a big impact on overall game time that will be hard to change, like TV commercial breaks probably aren't going anywhere, but they can do things with the rules to encourage a better flow to the game. The 3 batter minimum rule has helped a bit I think, but what gets me the most is slow pitchers. I hate watching guys that take so much time between pitches. It's truly awful. The worst is when you've got a slow pitcher who has a habit of stepping off the mound, and a guy at the plate who wants to step out of the box after every pitch. MLB still isn't doing enough to cut down on that stuff. I now realize how lucky I was as Blue Jays fan for so many years, they had some really fast workers (Halladay, Dickey, Buehrle). Buehrle especially. He didn't waste time and almost never shook off the catcher. His philosophy was that he wasn't the game caller, the catcher was, so he'd just do his best to execute every pitch that was called. You love to see it.
