Kansas City – T Eric Fisher — I must admit I was surprised to see Fisher taken over Joeckel. However, after watching more of his tape, I see Fisher is the better suited for Reid’s offense. He is the more athletic of the two and will be able to handle anything Andy Reid asks of him.

Jacksonville – T Luke Joeckel — The Jaguars make a great move for their offense and select the best pure left tackle in the draft. The Jags just may be headed in the right direction for once.

Miami – OLB Dion Jordan — In order to justify a trade up, the player being drafted must be a sure thing. While Jordan appears to be just that, I’m not sure he will excel for the Dolphins. The best available offensive lineman would’ve been the safer choice.

Philadelphia – T Lane Johnson — The Eagles go safe and pick up a player who’ll be around for years. Johnson looks like he has a mean side to him and should be a great fit.

Detroit – DE Ezekiel Ansah — With a somewhat risky move, the Lions take a raw, but talented player with loads of potential in Ansah. After losing Avril, this appears to be a good choice. Filling a need is usually the way to go.

Cleveland – OLB Barkevious Mingo — Mingo is a solid pick for the Browns. In a division where defense reigns, the Browns attempt to strengthen their front seven.

Arizona – G Jonothan Cooper — Arizona will be hanging with Coop this year. This is a nice choice by the Cardinals. They get the best guard in the draft and a hell of an athlete. I can’t wait to watch him pull and locate with his speed and power.

St. Louis – WR Tavon Austin — In a trade up, the Rams grab who I believe to be the best pure skill football player in the draft. Austin can do it all from a skill standpoint. I wouldn’t be surprised if the guy could play some defense, too.

New York Jets – CB Dee Milliner — This Alabama defensive back will be a good one. He can do everything but catch the ball. Fortunately for him, he is a defensive player and it won’t matter much.

Tennessee – G Chance Warmack — Another offensive lineman is snatched up rounding out the top ten. Warmack is a nice safe pick for the Titans. I’m sure Chris Johnson appreciates this one.

San Diego – T D.J. Fluker — The Chargers grabbed a very promising player with their top selection. For a team that has struggled with their protection, they’ve addressed a need with this pick.

Oakland – CB D.J. Hayden — Finally, Oakland makes a smart move, trading back and snagging one of the top-rated corners. Hayden has well-rounded abilities and will add run support. The Raiders may have added the best corner in the draft.

New York Jets – DT Sheldon Richardson — The Jets dismissed their need for an offensive playmaker again and instead chose a defensive tackle they could’ve traded back for. Good luck scoring points next season, Jets.

Carolina – DT Star Lotulelei — Now, if you’re going to draft a defensive tackle with your top pick, this is the guy you should’ve taken. This guy is down right nasty. He has the best chance to be the next dominant defensive tackle in the NFL.

New Orleans – S Kenny Vaccaro — The Saints take perhaps the best safety in the draft with Vaccaro, an instinctive player with serious potential. But in my opinion, the Saints already have a good safety tandem in Harper and Jenkins. A linebacker would’ve been the better choice.

Buffalo – QB E.J. Manuel — The Bills just don’t get it. It’s very sad to see a franchise that was once on the verge of becoming a dynasty fall into what it has now become the laughing stock of the NFL. It’s moves like this that keep them down though. Instead of trading back and acquiring more picks, they take a quarterback who wasn’t even close to first round talent.

Pittsburgh – OLB Jarvis Jones — In a perfect match, Jones heads to the Steelers. This will be a perfect fit.

San Francisco – S Eric Reid — Replacing the loss of Goldson here was a smart move by San Francisco. Once again, addressing a need is usually the way to handle business.

New York Giants – T Justin Pugh — The Giants made a smart move to bolster their offensive line. Yet another brilliantly ran organization filling a need.

Chicago Bears – G Kyle Long — At first I thought the Bears might trade all the way up for one of the top-rated tackles, but they made a nice choice. Bringing in a player with a pedigree is usually a good move, especially one as prestigious as the Long family.

Cincinnati – TE Tyler Eifert — The dual tight end set is becoming more and more popular. The Bengals got their man, but they should’ve traded back to get him.

Atlanta – CB Desmond Trufant — Atlanta waited as long as they could before trading up to nab the best available corner. With Hayden and Milliner off the board, the Falcons did what they needed to do and filled their hole at corner.

Minnesota – DT Sharrif Floyd — The Vikings make a very good move for their defense adding Floyd. He will play alongside Kevin Williams, creating a serious tandem.

Indianapolis – DE Bjoern Werner — Werner is a player who has versatility and athleticism. The Colts made a very smart and safe move grabbing the Florida State product.

Minnesota – CB Xavier Rhodes — The Vikings pick up the best available corner to replace Winfield’s departure.

Green Bay – DE Datone Jones — Time will tell if this was the right move, but my gut says no. The Packers needed a safety, but perhaps they’ll get one in the second round and be all right.

Houston – WR DeAndre Hopkins — The Texans have been having crazy success in the draft lately, so I won’t question this pick. I do feel that Cordarrelle Patterson would’ve been better though.

Denver – DT Sylvester Williams — This move is baffling. I would’ve thought for sure, the Broncos would’ve gotten some help for Peyton Manning, but maybe they know something I don’t.

Minnesota – WR Cordarrelle Patterson — The Vikings finish off a very nice first round with their newest playmaker, Cordarrelle Patterson. This kid is electric and will definitely help replace Percy Harvin’s production.

St. Louis – MLB Alec Ogletree — It can never hurt to add good linebackers to your roster and the Rams have done just that. Despite some off the field issues, Ogletree will be a good pro for the Rams.

Dallas – C Travis Frederick — The Cowboys play it almost too safe and take a center. It’s a good move, but the Cowboys needed to add a safety.

Baltimore – S Matt Elam — After a barrage of what I believe to be terrible offseason moves, the Ravens begin reconstructing the damage done by adding Matt Elam. They’ve got a very long way to go.

North Georgia talks strategy during a game with Valdosta State

It’s been a rough season for North Georgia baseball. Expectations were high to start the season, however with only 10 games left; the Saints are 16–27 and are one game out of a spot in the Peach Belt Tournament.

There is that silver lining of being just one game out of forth place in the PBC West. With a strong finish and some losses by fourth-place Young Harris, North Georgia could be making an appearance in the PBC Tournament.

“We are working on just playing our game and focusing on being as consistent as possible,” Coach Cantrell said. “We need to continue to work hard at the plate, cut down on our errors in the field and pitch well.”

“Our team has struggled at times in just about every aspect of the game, but our pitching staff has worked hard to keep us in some ball games, and some guys [have] stepped up offensively,” said Coach Cantrell about his team’s season.

Wins have been hard to come by all season, although lately they have won five of their last nine games, including two wins over Armstrong Atlantic, who is trying to hold on to the No. 4 spot in the PBC East, and a win against third-place Montevallo.

Things won’t be getting any easier as North Georgia ends the season with six of their last seven games against the top two teams in the PBC West. North Georgia plays first-place Columbus State April twenty-sixth and twenty-seventh, and they end the regular season with second-place Georgia College on May 4 and 5.

“[North Georgia] has been resilient with different kids stepping up for those that were not playing at 100 percent as well as moving positions in the field and in the line-up” Coach Davenport said of his North Georgia Saints. “We have been very pleased with their maturity with such a large number of underclassmen playing key innings.”

When you ask what Coach Davenport feels that the Saints have improved the most on this season, he believes that it has been the team’s patience.

“With so many new faces at the beginning of the season this team has showed a lot of patience as we work to find our team identity and figure out who we are”.

North Georgia ended the season tied for second place in the Peach Belt with Georgia College with a 16–6 record, while Georgia College got the tiebreaker and the second seed in the tournament.

Coach Davenport and the Saints are confident with their chances of making a run in the PBC Tournament while remembering that they need to keep the right mindset in order to be successful.

“This team has the [athletic] ability to compete with some of the nation’s best teams” Coach Davenport said. “It will be our mental preparation that dictates how far we proceed in post season play.”

North Georgia opens up the Peach Belt Tournament this Saturday against No. 6 seed USC Aiken down in St. Augustine, Florida at 4 p.m. With a win, they will play on Sunday at 1:30 p.m. in the semifinals. Win again and it’s on to the Peach Belt Championship Game at 4 p.m.

The NFL has recently adopted several new rules. The most noteworthy change is that ball carriers will be prohibited from leading with the crown of their helmet when taking on defenders outside of the tackle box.

Much like the recently implemented helmet-to-helmet rule preventing defenders from leading with their helmets, this change has raised debate amongst current and former players, analysts, coaches and fans about the game and its evolution.

One of, if not the most aggravating aspect of these helmet-fixated rules, is the confusion it creates for officials.

Now there is an entirely new phase of the game that is left up for interpretation.

 We have already seen officials make controversial calls regarding helmet-to-helmet hits on the defensive side of the ball, now with an additional helmet rule on offense, there will only be more confusion.

The truth is that in most cases players are not looking to lead with their helmet at all.

Just before impact, players lower their pads to gain leverage. This occurs rapidly and shifts the defenders target zone at the last possible moment causing head-on-head collisions. It has been happening forever in football and is mostly accidental.

While it’s true some players have been documented to use their helmet as a weapon at times, the majority of players create impact with their shoulders.

This is why coaches use the phrase, “get behind your pads”. It literally means to make impact behind your shoulder pads.

It’s upsetting to see players penalized for hits that are mostly accidental, but it is typically happening because players have their heads down at the time of collision.

So the good news is that we should see more NFL athletes playing fundamentally sound.

The other good news would be the elimination of the infamous “tuck rule.”

OK, so the owners did get one thing right. Good job fellas.

But the rule that digs into and devours my deeply rooted NFL soul, the granddaddy of them all, is the “defenseless receiver rule.”

For years receivers have had to fear defenders when catching a pass. This was part of the game. If you didn’t like it, you had to take a hike. Now, that fear is slowly disappearing as we enter into a new era of football.

My argument against this rule is simple. Big hits can happen on any play and to any player on the field, not just receivers.

Some of the biggest hits ever witnessed have occurred when both players colliding were fully aware of the inevitable clash. Are we going to outlaw that too? Where does it stop?

I argue that these brain diseases come from an extensive amount of hits taken over an entire career, not just a big hit here and there.

This is the truth of the matter. Football is a dangerous game. It is a game of size, strength, speed, wit, and deception. Why should defenders be punished for being in position and on time when all the opposition wants to do is overpower, outrun, outsmart, and trick them? If they do not take their opportunities to make tackles, they may miss.

So someone please tell me, how else do you tackle someone who is big, strong, fast, intelligent, and elusive other than to be there when the ball arrives?

What is bizarre is that the NFL team owners are the main ones voting on these rules.

So, 32 men who have in most cases not played football anywhere near the professional level are the primary voters on rule changes for a league of professionals? I’m guessing it would make too much sense to involve the players.

These changes wouldn’t have anything to do with the fact that the owners are trying to cover their asses and protect themselves from future lawsuits, would it?

Recent discoveries showing links between concussions and brain disease have brought on serious discussion.

More than 4,000 former players are currently attempting to sue the NFL claiming they were not properly informed of the danger. The owners are apparently making sure this never happens again.

Excuse me while I go all George Carlin.

So now the people who watch the games have to deal with the people who misinterpret the rules because the people who were underpaid and have medical issues they can’t afford to treat want to sue the people who make the rules and have lots of money.

So get used to it everybody.

Even though Gainesville State College and North Georgia College and State University consolidated this past semester, there is still a feeling of detachment from the school in Dahlonega.

But sports could play a huge role in bringing some unity to all four of these campuses.

According to UNG Athletic Director, Lindsay Reeves, in an e-mail interview, “Any student enrolled in a four-year baccalaureate program at UNG, (Gainesville, or any of our campuses) is eligible for UNG Division II NCAA sports. All students must meet NCAA eligibility standards regarding academics and amateurism. “

There are currently a few students who take classes on multiple campuses that participate in NCAA athletics, but it remains to be seen if UNG coaches will be able to utilize this untapped resource of potential talent.

“Recruitment is a full time job. They are constantly evaluating club teams and HS teams for potential players,” Reeves said, “If they are playing at the Junior College level, they are also in constant contact with the coaches. Other than those avenues, potential players have to reach out to the coaches via email or phone.”

Whatever the case, something needs to be done to build a sense of unity and school spirit between these four campuses and Reeves has a few ideas.

“We need to build up the recreation facilities so that students have a place (Oconee) or a more up to date facility (Gainesville) to work out,” Reeves said, “We also need to enhance our intramural and club sports programs on both campus. I think this will get the students excited and build spirit. We also need to have some special events at our sporting events for all UNG students and possibly host some events on Gainesville campus (if we can get the facilities to NCAA standards).”

Even better than going to Dahlonega for UNG sports, would be the possibility of UNG sports coming to Gainesville.

“I know that there is a lot of interest in building and upgrading facilities on both campuses,” Reeves said, “Resources to fund these projects must be identified. No state funds can be used for athletic facilities.”

1)      NBA Playoffs (April 20 – June 20)

Why you should watch: To see if the Heat can be beat. The defending champion Heat have been the top team in the league all season, racking up 27 straight wins at one point, and have clinched home court advantage throughout. The Knicks have been en fuego recently, streaking at just the right time. The Pacers have the size to compete in the East, while the Spurs and the Thunder will battle it out in the West, but the Heat are clearly the favorites. Start watching early because your Hawks aren’t expected to hang around too long.

2)      Stanley Cup Playoffs (April 30 – June 28)

Why you should watch: Missing teeth and playoff beards. The Stanley Cup is the most prestigious trophy in sports and the hardest to win. You don’t hear about any injuries during the playoffs, but every player ends up having to treat an injury after it is over. The Blackhawks have been the best team from the outset with a 24 game point streak the start the season, while the Penguins have had a 15 game win streak of their own. Just don’t be surprised if an eight seed gets hot and wins it all like the Kings did last year.

3)      Indianapolis 500 (May 26)

Why you should watch: It’s the Greatest Spectacle in Racing from the Racing Capital of the World. If you call yourself a race fan, you better tune in. This event has lost a little bit of its luster over the past decade with the rise of NASCAR coupled with the CART/IndyCar debacle, but it is still the oldest and most prestigious motor race in the country, arguably the world. Every sport fan needs to put attending an Indy 500 in person on their bucket list because television just doesn’t do it justice.

4)      Kentucky Derby (May 4)

Why you should watch: It is the premier horse race and sets the tone for the triple crown, which hasn’t been won in 34 years. It is known as the greatest minute in sports because that is how long the race lasts. One lap around a 1.25-mile dirt track. Every horse has only one shot at this as only 3-year-olds are allowed to compete. It is also a tradition for every woman to wear the largest, most ridiculous hat they can find.

5)      Rugby World Cup Sevens (June 28 – June 30)

Why you should watch: This is a preview of what you will be watching in the Olympics in 2016 as Rugby Sevens is set to make their Olympic debut which will then replace this event. Rugby is a fun sport to watch and Sevens allows for a more open field of play, as traditional rugby is played with 15 players aside. Rugby is pretty much football without plays, constant action, laterals, and tackles. Only downside, the USA isn’t the best at this sport, but it’s fun rooting for the underdog sometimes.

6)      UEFA Champions League final (May 25)

Why you should watch: This is the cream of the crop for club soccer. The best teams from the top league from each European country compete in a World Cup style tournament. The four remaining teams are Barcelona, Real Madrid, Bayern Munich, and Borussia Dortmund. Will it be a Barca and Madrid final with the two best players, Messi and Ronaldo, facing off yet again? Will Bayern Munich ruin the Spanish party or will Borussia Dortmund shock everyone and pull the upset? Tune in to see.

7)      Wimbledon (June 24 – July 7)

Why you should watch: It’s the biggest tennis tournament of the year. It is held at the All England Club in London. It is also the oldest tennis tournament in the world, having been played since 1877. It is the only tennis major played on grass, the game’s original surface, and is the one event everyone wants to win. These players will be giving it their all, going balls to the wall, which should make for some good television.

8)      Tour de France (June 29 – July 23)

Why you should watch: It is the pinnacle event for cyclists. The event is almost a month long with only a few days of rest scheduled. The course encompasses the entire border of France with the finish line in Paris. The hill section is certainly the most grueling and tends to separate the men from the boys. Despite the absence of a strong American competitor since Lance Armstrong won seven straight, it is still an event sports fans need to follow or at least be aware of.

9)      ICC Champions Trophy (June 6 – June 23)

Why you should watch: It’s cricket! The International Cricket Council hosts this global competition that pits the top cricket countries against each other. You need to watch it because if you happen to figure out what the hell is going on, I want you to contact me and explain it. Cricket is, in my opinion, the most complicated sport in the history of forever. I’m not even sure that every cricket player knows how to play cricket. It hurts my brain to watch this sport, but as a sports fan, I’m going to give it another shot to try to finally figure it out.

10)  The Braves (All summer long)

Why should you watch: The Braves might have the most exciting outfield in Baseball with Jason Heyward and the additions of the Upton brothers. The homeruns flying out of the park and the balls kept in the park because of the tremendous defense will be worth the price of admission. The pitching staff looks excellent, and will only improve with the addition of Brandon Beachy coming off of the disabled list around the All-Star Break. All of that to go with the best closer in the game, Craig Kimbrel, and Turner Field will be a “Jungle” all summer long.

Survival Instinct puts the player in the shoes of everyone’s beloved zombie-killing badass, Daryl Dixon, with his trademark crossbow. The story is centered on Daryl and his brother Merle attempting to survive in the zombie-infested Georgia. This game is essentially a prologue to the first season of “The Walking Dead.”

Wait! Do not rush to Gamestop just yet!

Survival Instinct has many of the pieces that make a fantastic game, but they are not utilized correctly. If this game was released when the current generation of consoles came out eight years ago it would be a platinum hit without question. But it is 2013, and this game sadly falls well short of its potential.

The graphics are nowhere near the caliber of today’s shooters, such as Call of Duty and Halo 4, the benchmarks for most FPSs. Survival Instinct’s renderings of the environment, characters and weapons are elementary in comparison. Characters’ faces and bodies have no real definition to them. Even the weapons look like a Playstation 2 Medal of Honor game. There is simply no depth to the graphics. Again, this would be state of the art graphics if it was released six or seven years prior.

Along with the basic graphics comes basic gameplay. Now make no mistake, it does not take away the fun of coming up from behind a Walker and shoving your blade into the side of its skull. But it does get redundant at times.

Essentially, there are four methods of killing a Walker: stab them three times in the head, shoot them in the head, sneak up on them from behind or grapple with them. Activision and Terminal Reality should have taken a few more notes on the television show and made it more interactive and creative.

They could have stolen a couple of things from the new release, Tomb Raider. The problem with Survival Instinct is they do not slowly expose you to the different methods, they show you everything within the first half hour of gameplay.

The storyline of Survival Instinct is decent. It definitely gives you the feeling your in an apocalyptic wasteland. The game begins with the opening similar to the show. It gives you a piece of the story and then it runs into the The Walking Dead’s notorious credits and dark theme song. It definitely sends chills down your spine and gets you ready to go on a killing rampage. But similar to the combat, all of your excitement is short lived after the first 30 minutes. It gets as redundant as the first Assassin’s Creed. Drive to a location, investigate, kill walkers, lose a companion, leave and repeat.

Survival Instinct gives you a small feel of living in The Walking Dead world but that is it. If you are in love with the television show, like me, then you will have some appreciation for the game. Bottom line, this game had massive potential and delivered mediocre results. If they actually took the time to develop it, this game would be absolutely unbeatable. Instead we have to settle with three stabs to the head for a knockout.

SGA is putting in place caps on things such as food and travel spending for clubs.

Clubs will only be able to spend 10 percent of their budget on food, and 25 percent of their budget can go toward travel expenses.

“Every club is getting budget cuts,” said Noam Ben-Avraham, the president of UNG-G’s Gamer’s Guild. “We don’t spend much money on food. Really, we just don’t spend much money in general. I don’t really think we’ll be affected,”

Ben-Avraham thinks other clubs may feel the effect, though.

“Sometimes food or travel are all that really hold members to being active in a club,” he said.

Associate Dean for Student Life Cara Ray said the new rules won’t cause a massive decrease in club budget allocations.

“While it’s true that we can’t give every club an increase, there is also not a sweeping decision to give every club a decrease,” she said.

“There is a myth going around that the new university culture isn’t going to be as friendly to student clubs, and that is absolutely not true,” Ray said.

Club spending will be capped, with some exceptions, according to Ray.

“I would rather a club, if they are going to spend $500, instead of buying the same 10 people lunch every day, I think it’s a better use of Student Activity money, that they pay a guest speaker a couple hundred dollars to come speak,”  Ray said.

Ray, as well as SGA, agreed to allow for exceptions for clubs where food and travel spending is necessary.

While some clubs on campus will not suffer drastic changes, other clubs possibly will, unless they ask for an exception from SGA.

Andrea Ampuero, treasurer for the Asian Student Association, still has concerns.

“I think it will affect how many people join the club, because most of the costs we spend is on paying for travel and buying pizza for meetings, which attracts new members to come and check out the club,” Ampuero said.

Ray encourages all club officers who have such fears to come talk to her.

“I don’t know all the answers, but I can certainly get you in touch with a person who knows,” she said.

But, what is a roundabout? According to the New York Department of Transportation, “The modern roundabout is a circular intersection, successfully implemented in Europe and Australia.” Hasn’t been popular here in the U.S.

Recently, however, there have been an increase in the construction of roundabouts. The reason being roundabouts are safer and improve traffic flow. The NYDOT states in terms of improved safety, shorter delays, increased capacity, and improved aesthetics roundabouts fare more favorably than conventionally controlled intersections (stop signs and traffic signals).

They list three basic principles: First, “Modern roundabouts follow the ‘yield-at-entry’ rule in which vehicles must wait for a gap in the circulation flow before entering circle.” Second, “Modern roundabouts involve low speeds for entering and circulating traffic, as governed by small diameters and deflected (curved) entrances.” Third, “Adequate deflection of the vehicle entering the roundabout is the most important factor influencing their safe operation. Roundabouts should be designed so that the speed of all vehicles is restricted to 30 mph or less within the roundabout.”

This means it’s not necessary to completely stop at the yield sign if there are no cars or a car is on the opposite side of the circle; cars are piling up behind you. Just make sure to turn right and follow a counter-clockwise route. No matter which road or exit you take out of the circle, turn right, not left at the yield sign upon entering the circle.

Let’s minimize the stopping to when it is necessary; the morning rush only get more frustrating when unnecessary stops are made.

Fast drivers will have to slow down or else they’ll probably fly off the curb. Besides, the speed limit is 25 mph on Mathis Drive.

If there’s any confusion on what to do when approaching the circle, just look at the traffic sign on the right; it clearly says ‘Yield’.

Roundabouts are not complicated road obstacles, they’re just a better way to conduct traffic because it allows the opportunity of continuous movement. Lets accept this fact and get used to driving in the circle.

Crystal Dynamics has created a smash hit that can be enjoyed by hard core Tomb Raider fans and new comers alike. Without revealing too much in regards to the plot, Lara is a young archeologist out to make a name for herself in the world. She sets out with a group of other explorers who are seeking the ancient kingdom of Yamatai, a lost Japanese kingdom that was once ruled over by a powerful monarch named the Sun Queen. Stuff hits the fan when a storm destroys her ship, and leaves the entire crew stranded on a deserted island…only it’s not so deserted. Lara and her friends must fight for their lives against a group of crazed cultists that have taken up residence on the mysterious island.

While the plot seems vaguely like Lost, the game won’t lose you 5 hours in. The single player story is simply marvelous. The M rating that Crystal Dynamics opted for really helps set the stage for a gritty, intense action/adventure game. As a hardcore Tomb Raider fan, the game tugs at your emotions. Over the course of the game, Lara is beaten, injured and nearly killed.

The character development that takes place in Tomb Raider is akin to nothing that has come before it in the series. No other game can show a player a veritable metamorphosis of the main character. Players will simply be amazed by how far Lara grows over the course of her adventure.

While this game didn’t necessarily have big shoes to fill in regards to living up to recent installments, the developers didn’t take the opportunity to just create a mediocre game with decent mechanics. The gameplay is visceral, and the mechanics seem almost groundbreaking. The island you will be exploring is an open-world environment, with tombs strewn about the landscape for Lara to explore.

The graphics are stunning. PC players shouldn’t have too much trouble running the game. The engine that Crystal Dynamics uses is pretty light considering what they deliver with it. The soundtrack is brilliant; incorporating themes from the original games, but still making it sound original.

While the multiplayer is lackluster, it is still a nice addition. It provides for a nice diversion when you complete the main story. The game has plenty of re-play value, and developers have an excellent opportunity to add to the game through future downloadable content.

After playing the game, there is no doubt in my mind that Crystal Dynamics has set the stage for an incredible continuation of this iconic series. Going back to what they had done in the past would be a mistake and total misstep. Developers have brought glory back to Lara Crofts name. Bottom line, buy it.
