The Tudor factory was in downtown Brooklyn. His impact in my hood was felt throughout. We had leagues full of teams. We even would dig in the company's trash can to find men.

Thanks you for that game, Mr. Sas.

lol, my older brother had one those.

I actually fukked with it for a little while, even bought some pieces from Tudor but once I got my first Madden video game I never turned back.

Same here. That spelled the end of that game. It was our 1980's version of Madden though.

Niqqas around my way would put liquid cement around the men, giving them huge shoulders and arms and then repaint them. That shyt was an institution around my way....

You couldn't let ceratin niqqas come to your crib cuz they'd steal your men and shyt.

This is what passed for entertainment before video games? I feel bad for those losers born before the 8 bit era.

Niqqas actually used critical thinking skills back then and did things like play outside.

this was what it was all about before video games took over.

For some reason me and my brother use to watch and laugh hilariously at this shyt. Same guy always going in circles the unstoppable TD machine just seeing the players always doing the same thing over and over again was funny to us.
