If you miss a sports game do you cry when everyone is discussing it at work/school or your favorite forum the next day?

Sports games don't take place at 4 in the morning where the only way to watch them for most people's schedules is vods.

I can only speak for myself. Im a big fan of the NFL (no particular franchise / team) and due to my timezone and the fact that i have no access to any TV channel showing live or recorded games my only solution is to look for the video highlights on nfl.com or try to download a couple of that week top matches and watch them in the quality they might had been compressed.

I do understand the spoiler issue and spoiling anyones fun is non-intended. When it happens to me i still watch all the matches i intended to since for me theres a lot more to the match than its end result...and keep in mind that with the ammount of tournaments and events going around i get that a lot.

Peace, and sorry for any spoiler. The main idea was to present a player that some might not recognize as easely as some of the top pro gamers, nothing more.

I want Cool to win, but it's not gonna happen.

4-1 ITR , Cool might be able to take it 4-2 but I'm saying no greater than that.

I never liked him. First, he bastardized the best ID ever - IntoTheRain. Secondly, he looks like a woman.

Most of the good looking korean males are pretty metrosexual. I don't think It's that uncommon over there ;o

true but there is a difference between looking like a woman and metrosexual

Everyone would love ITR if he looked like this:

In the Starcraft 2 Beta, IntoTheRainbow has switched to Terran as his primary race. He joined the new pro-house oGs., along with fellow Koreans Tester, Cool, and Zenio.

Shouldnt this be TSL?

Agreed on liking the handle IntoTheRainbow WAYYYY better than HopeTorture . He is a sick player, but gotta cheer for Cool in the finals. Should be a sick sick match though

to be honest he's right,but at the same time this is the first biggest korean sc2 tournament and BW has really spoiled us to the fact we have to expect really good matches from the Ro8 onwards.

again its only the first and for a lot of Korean players this is the first time they are being telecasted internationally.but seeing as how the finals has some good old BW vets I doubt we'd see some bad plays from either of them since its less likely that they'll choke.

ITR and Cool FIGHTING!!!

Its the fact people saying how good korean players/ladder are, but there have been one or two players in the ro64 that I feel even I could've beaten. I want to agree with Artosis's notion that alot of them have stage fright, especially considering cella's play. But then I think of western tourneys like MLG and IEM, and the difference is night and day.

Great thread, I love how these threads are starting to crop up. Hope we get an ITR/NaDa grudgematch in GSL2

Here's to more seasons of SC2, and many more for BW

Wasn't he IntoTheRain's apprentice so maybe it's more of a admiration for him rather than "I want to steal your ID" thing.
I could even imagine IntoTheRain liking it.

HopeTorture is a cool ID for a Terran player. Can't wait for the Skittles finals. Taste The Rainbow.
