Question: You are the single most dominant NHLPA '93 player of all time, it's not even close (as immortalized in the movie "Swingers"). I used to rack up 17-0 victories with the Blackhawks and you'd walk away with 17 goals. It was so unfair, my buddies and I created the "no Roenick rule" to even the playing field.
My questions are a) Did you know how dominant you were in video-game form? b) If you did know, is that something you hold over fellow real-life teammates/opponents? c) Does it make you sad that you never scored 17 goals in an NHL game?
Answer: My biggest claim to fame is my '93 Sega Genesis "domination." I have more people compliment me on my video-game ability than my actual real-life ability. People tell me they have gotten through college by being JR and the Blackhawks and wagering on the games. I have also heard about the "no Blackhawk rule."

God bless video games... I am without my xbox for 2-4 weeks to due repair. Any ideas on what to do with all the free time i got now? I need a new hobby... and jerking off and getting a job don't count as real responses.
I think you'd be a damn good street vendor. You could hawk all sorts of worthless shit to kids outside of Highcrest and the JH. Bracelets, hot dogs, magic shows. Just make sure you keep it on the west side.
plus it'd take care of j.o.ing. just seduce some 13 year old girl by buying her beer.
SUE
You little bitch!
MIKE
Hey Sue. Gretsky's on his ass again.
TRENT
Because he's a bitch.
SUE
That's so bullshit. This is so bullshit.
MIKE
You should play another team. The Kings are bitches in this game.
SUE
Hey, man. I took the Kings to the Cup.
TRENT
... against the computer.
SUE
They're a finesse team...
TRENT
They're a bitch team... SCORE!
Roenick!
SUE
Fuck!!! That is so bullshit!
MIKE
Give it up, Sue.
TRENT
I wish the game still had fights so I
could bitch-slap Wayne.
MIKE
This version doesn't have fighting?
TRENT
No. Doesn't that suck?
MIKE
What? That was the best part of the old
game.
SUE
I don't know. I guess kids were hitting
each other or something.
TRENT
You could make their heads bleed, though.
SUE
Yeah... If you hit them hard their heads
bleed all over the ice and their legs
convulse.
SUE
It's kinda money, actually.
MIKE
Make someone bleed.
SUE
No, man, we're in the play-offs.
TRENT
I'll make Gretsky bleed, the little
bitch.
SUE
You bitch!
- Swingers, great movie
Absolute great movie, and incredible video game. I have it at home on Sega and talk about keeping busy. 14 years later still remembering that game and JR, gotta love it. NHLPA '93 over break, anyone?? On a side note, JR has 4 goals this season and is 1 away from 500. Can't wait until he gets it.
