OK… lets start with the Wikipedia definition of Jack Thompson:
John Bruce “Jack” Thompson (born July 25, 1951) is an American attorney and activist, based in Coral Gables, Florida. Thompson, a Christian conservative[1], is known for his public advocacy of conservative Christian moral standards. He is also an activist against video games such as Grand Theft Auto and Bully.
His involvement with music, gaming, and the media (and especially use of legal threats) have raised questions about First Amendment rights. The Florida Bar is currently seeking sanctions against Thompson for inappropriate conduct.

No No No… Not Bugs Bunny… My boy Joe Bugs stopped by the Wreck Room (my place) today, so I figured I might try out the 2 player mode of Tiger Woods PGA 2007 (EA Sports), as long as he was there. So we booted up and put it in two player mode. I’ve been having a hard time in career mode, because they start you out as a sh*tty amature and you have to keep on training so you won’t suck so much. 2 player mode allows you to play as a pro character.
