NCAA '07: Discontinue Play If You're Feeling "Stabby"

Kyle Bunch, TrojanWire

ncaa-07-violence.jpgWe can get into video games as much as anybody; or so we thought, until we read this story:

Two men in Athens, Georgia were playing a spirited game of NCAA Football 2007 -- Tennessee vs. Auburn (we're guessing neither of them could agree on who gets to be Georgia), when one of the men snuck a peak of his opponent's play-calling screen. The other man responded the way any rational person would -- by putting a 10-inch butcher knife in his friend's back after he went to sleep.

The victim is in serious but stable condition; the 34-year old attacker is in custody, where he'll almost certainly be for some time. And this concludes another episode of "When Keeping It Real Goes Wrong."

Dude...nobody told you to go collect the wife and kids...you choose to do that. For what reason...nobody will ever know.

Now you do nothing but slave all day and night...for no reason. Just because.
