I always look forward to the month of August. It's when I get the chance to indulge one of my remaining childish vices (besides Lucky Charms). We are less than a month away from the release of Madden 08 – the wildly popular football video game that has left me addicted for nearly two decades. I've already reserved my copy and I've managed to wrangle a whole day of game playing. No easy task with a small daughter and a wife who rather I'd engage in more productive activities or at least stop playing video games like I'm 10. Nevertheless, I'm excited and the countdown is on: 20 days – yea! And no, ha, ha, there will be no dogfighting mode in this year's version or clubbing with PacMan Jones.
