That makes so much for the old argument that you just let out your inner desires on video games. I'm a really calm driver... I get like 26 mpg mixed, have gotten as high as 31 with a 3.8, and I can even get 12-14 mpgs with my Torino and it's 390!!! I'm getting old and mellow though.

im a pretty frequent gamer myself. passed both of my written tests and my driving test first try. no accidents or tickets. but have reached speeds of over 100 a few times. maybe i'm just lucky...so far.

And everyone who plays Madden is more likely to tackle someone.
