@ Austin Burton

The Red Rings Of Death is an Xbox 360′s worst nightmare for the system and even more so for the owner. My lil bro had it happen to his 360 and we had to send it back to Microsoft to get it replaced. I found that the best method to keeping your 360 from dying and your pockets from crying is to unplug the power cord WHENEVER u get done playing. ALWAYS unplug it after play and you should have no problems at all

Hopefully you won’t see it Austin! If your 360 every flashes a red ring instead of the normal green one..I say immediately shut it down! You could save it! The Red Ring of Death means your system has just crashed and you have to send it back to Microsoft..thats the only way to fix it..they will do it for free but it could take a couple of months!

I once got two rings before then I shut the system down..waited a couple of minutes and restarted it and never had another problem out of it!

@sans — I have a 360, fairly new. What are the Red Rings of Death?

My 360 took a hit from the Red Rings of Death recently, I don’t think it’ll be back in time for the first days of 2K9. Sad times. Luckily, the weed in the NorthWest is so amazing, I’m not hurting that much.

So the Knicks’ image rebuilding project is in full effect? All they need to do know is lower prices, or give the fans some open practices like they did a few years ago.
And whats taking so long with the NBA2K9 demo on the Playstation network? I can’t wait for two more weeks for real.

How many PFs do the Rockets need? I still don’t understand why they drafted Joey Dorsey, who does no more or less than Landry or Hayes. They have 3 guys who are basically the same player. They must be holding onto them as trade chips, cuz lots of teams could use a guy like that.

Here’s the real story behind Monta’s moped accident.

…in considering the gas crisis, he chose to ride his moped to his skydiving lessons. As he was in route to his destination, he started to day dream about the movie “Torque” which excited him to a point where he mashed the breaks and flipped over the handlebars. Ironically, he didn’t get hurt during this process. As he pulled himself off the groud, he walked over to the moped and kicked it repeatedly injuring his foot and ankle.

Hope the Rockets dont regret the Landry deal. Dude is going to be coming off the bench behind Artest(or Battier), Barry, and Aaron Brooks. Thats a lot of money for the 4th man off the bench.

Ok, I agree dude shouldnt have lied about the injury but was Monte really THAT wrong for riding a moped. I understand a lot of money is invested in a lot of the players but does that mean they can’t do physical non-basketball activities? Athletes get injuries from lifting weights or slipping in the bath tub. What if he got the injury from playing his Wii? I mean, we’re talking about a moped here for crying out loud. Those things go as fast as what? 50 mph?
