After one of the worst months for RAW in history, the men and women who make up the roster must pull out all the stops to take their brand out of the painful rut they’re in. A lack of interest plagues every match of the night; hell, I don’t even know what all of the…
**** When I first prepared to listen to The White Album nearly a year ago, I fully expected to hate it. I have a strange sort of relationship with The Beatles; they’re one of my favorite bands and stir up a rather broad spectrum of emotions in me when I listen to them. They’re one…
It’s been several weeks since my last Burnes’ Turns entry, and in that time I’ve been exposed to a number of great tracks in the multitude of video games I’ve been revisiting and experiencing for the first time. I don’t own any of them, but count pretty much every track that appears in a Bethesda-helmed…
In a move that Survivor fans across the country applauded, tonight’s episode produced Adam Klein’s epic betrayal of the Millennials by allowing the elimination of the season’s most infamous player: Figgy. Not only does this keep my pick for winner of the season, Ken McNicle, alive in the game, it created another memorable moment for…
9 Over the course of Pokemon’s 20-year history, Game Freak has never released a duo of games that were as divisive as Black and White. For many, the game’s removal of all of the familiar Pokemon in the series’ past (from Pikachu to Garchomp) in favor of a brand new cast of foreign, strange-looking critters…
Tonight’s episode of Survivor is the best yet in a season that appeared to be doomed for mediocrity in the beginning, but has benefited from some key players and a significant twist: tonight’s separation of the two rather static tribes into three dynamic ones. As a result, the fight between the Gen-Xers and Millennials took…
9.5 It’s been a long time since I have played a videogame and come away without a negative thing to say. In fact, until I played Halo 3, it had really only happened three times. Earning a perfect score isn’t an easy thing for a videogame to accomplish; they’re much longer and more involved than…
NOTE: This list, which was originally published in 2016, is currently undergoing an update to coincide with Season 50. It is currently unfinished, which is why you may see numbers that don’t make sense. Time and patience will result in a much better list than before. Until then, Happy Season 50! I wasn’t one of…
There comes a time when we must put aside our pride and our individual wishes and goals in order to do what’s right. The United States of America has reached the threshold of one of those times. Ever since Bernie Sanders entered the race in his bid to become the Democratic nominee for president, I…
***** I hate double albums. One of the worst trends in music since the fall of vinyl is the over-lengthening of LPs. The best ones are typically about 10 songs long and no more than 40 minutes in length; just enough time to hook the listener and deliver memorable songs before tiring with a litany…
