non-homer-ness
I hate it when you see highlights of a game, and the visiting team does something exciting, but the announcers …
“and there’s a home run..”
kind of like
“here’s the elevator…”
When you’re an announcer, and something ‘worthy’ happens…get excited. If you want to be dull and not excited about events on the field, turn your microphone off.

I wish there was a good Empire game for the PSP.
I used to love playing the different versions of that over the years. My favorite is still Empire Deluxe on PC, but it’s got to be close to 15 years old now.
And a good Axis & Allies game would be good. The last one for PC wasn’t even a turn based game, and the one before that was so buggy you couldn’t finish a game.
