Where Was the Editor on this One?

Kotaku writes: "This is a terrible trailer. We've all been over the morality discussion of World War II games, or any game that simulates an actual war in which real people we know fought. For this genre, that hard rock accompaniment to Call of Duty: World at War's launch trailer is atrocious, and I certainly hope it's not going out on television (where the trailer is much better). "NO RULES?" Is this a UFC montage? "NO FEAR?" What, we're reducing World War II to a rear-window sticker in a white trash lowrider? Where's Calvin pissing on Japan?"

Imagine for a moment that the Cold War never happened. Suppose that Joseph Stalin had suffered an aneurism a week after the end of World War 2 and that his successors, although not exactly friendly toward the West, chose a far less antagonistic relationship.

And with barely time for a pause for breath the Redknapp Revolution is in action again on Wednesday evening as Liverpool come to White Hart Lane for another crack at bursting Harry's bubble, this time in the Carling Cup 4th round.

Liverpool will probably send boys to try and do what their men couldn't manage a fortnight ago as they are one of the teams who regularly treat this competition with disdain, forgetting the fun that they are potentially denying their supporters by putting at risk a big day out at Wembley. Cup finals can be days to remember as we know very well and I don't understand why teams would choose not to have an occasion like that in their season. The scousers despatched Crewe last time out whilst fielding a bunch of reserves and a few first teamers on their way back after injury. They also fielded a second team when we met in the quarter finals of this competition in 2004 and they were too good for the likes of our superstars Thimothee Atouba, Reto Ziegler, Rohan Ricketts and Robbie Keane as we got done on penalties.
