Blog Update- August 2018

I promise you this isn't a monthly thing, it just sort of happened that I have two months in a row where posting a blog update was necessary. I've done some thinking, and I've made (mostly solid) plans for the rest of the year, and it was important that I share them. This may not be the news you want to hear, but I'm happy with the plans that I've made, and I hope you can be too.


Let's start off with the bad news: as of now, there are no plans for any more Universe Mode content for the remainder of 2018. I've reached the beginning of Season 4 of that series, which was always the plan, and now I'm ready to take a break from posting it. This might start becoming a yearly thing, since I took a hiatus from posting Henry's Universe Mode at this time last year as well. This decision was for the same reason as last year, as football season is starting soon, and I intend to bring you plenty of Dog League coverage. I simply don't have the time or the mental energy for Henry's Universe Mode, but don't worry, it'll be back at the start of next year, hopefully better than ever.


As of now, I don't plan on Dog League content being the only thing I post on this blog for the rest of the year. I've toyed with bringing back my Philadelphia Flyers GM Mode on NHL 15, and also with the idea of bringing in something new. There are no solidified plans, but I would like to make it clear that the Dog League is my priority. No matter what else is posted, it will always come second. Also, does anyone know when American Dad is coming back? They've been on an unexplained hiatus since early-May, and I'm starting to get a little concerned.


So that's everything. Again, hopefully you're not too disappointed with today's news, and are ready for the return of football. I know I am.

Henry's Universe Mode #231: WrestleMania II (Part 3)

Finn Balor vs The Undertaker Finn Balor felt the full force of the strikes of The Undertaker in the early going, eating rights and lefts to the skull. The Undertaker continued to lay into Balor, dumping him to the floor with a clothesline, then following up with his vintage suicide dive! After a brief skirmish on the outside, the Deadman got destructive, grabbing the Demon's throat and driving him through the announce table with a chokeslam! It was here that The Undertaker allowed Finn Balor a chance to just give up and concede defeat, but Balor wasn't having any of it. Finn got his second wind, countering an attempted chokeslam to connect with a reverse DDT, then the shotgun dropkick in the corner. Up top, Finn connected with Coup de Grace! 1........................2.......................but it's going to take a lot more to put The Undertaker away, especially at WrestleMania. Balor laid in some shots, busting The Undertaker open, but that proved to be a huge mistake. ...

American Dad "Stompe Le Monde" Review

You know, I once tried to make it in musical theater. If only I had watched this episode beforehand, I would've known I needed a leather jacket to truly make it. Alas, those dreams are for a more pretentious soul than mine. "Stompe Le Monde" is a wild episode of American Dad, one that starts with Stan's previously unknown uncle dying and ends with wanton destruction of many Sonic Drive-Ins. It's a crazy a journey as it sounds, one that left me just struggling to keep up. The family to use the new inheritance to travel to New York City, but Stan quickly blows the money on the rights to Stomp, which is apparently a real musical. The whole town of Langley is very excited to see the new show, but Stan has no idea what he's doing, never once hiring a director or even rehearsing. Why this only came up literally minutes before opening is anyone's guess. The Smith Family is forced to go on the run, and are attacked by many ferocious coyotes off-screen. In ye...

American Dad "The Hand that Rocks the Rogu" Review

American Dad as a show is definitely not afraid to get a little freaky, and nothing is more evident than the existence of Rogu, Roger's tumor that became a character himself in "Persona Assistant". Rogu primarily works as a character because he stays in the background, but this week, he takes a starring role in one of the weirdest American Dad episodes to date. "The Hand that Rocks the Rogu" has little in the way of traditional plot structure, and can only barely be considered an episode at all. It's more a collection of funny and bizarre skits, with a few running plot points that end up forming some sort of resolution. Steve wants to become a babysitter, but Francine says he's not ready, so he needs to prove himself to her. He does that by taking care of Rogu, as Roger is off for a night of NSFW activities. Steve is instructed not to let Rogu have candy or screentime, but violates both rules almost immediately. It turns out that Rogu multiplies w...
