First, the Celtics are whacking the Lakers with a critical hit to end the Finals.
So that’s fine, I mute Celtic cheerleader Mike Breen, blowhard Mark Jackson, and bitter old man Jeff Van Gundy, and just play some Pokemon Pearl while keeping an eye on the blowout. No problem right?
Wrong. Cynthia, down to her final Roserade during the Pokemon League championship game, whips out a critical hit at just the right time to knock out my Infernape and win, when otherwise I had it for sure as soon as I got off a Fire Blast.
This after repeatedly, repeatedly needing one measly critical earlier in the battle against Cynthia’s Garchomp, but of course never getting it, and so having that battle drag on forever, and put me in the position where one critical would waste all that time.
Blah. So I’m grumpy.
