Guest Posted January 8, 2009 Share Posted January 8, 2009 On the journey to work I picked up my usual copy of The Metro to help pass the time & was surprised to read a small article on a company that is about to introduce a fragrance that gives off the smell of a football dressing room complete with deep heat & stale grass. Imagine my surprise to see a quote attributed to SI's very own Miles Jacobson. Is this true & have SI gone totally bananas? Surely this isn't the next big new feature for FM2010. Unfortunately I can't find a link to the article online & I wouldn't be surprised if Metro have either made it up or just fallen for some SI in-joke to see who can spread the most ludicrous story about the games future.

djwilko6 Posted January 8, 2009 Share Posted January 8, 2009 Who cares if someone has spelt something wrong!Get over it I'd rather the amount of text speak was cut down myself. I wonder if the people who use text speak in forums actually walk around talking like that, for instance there have been occasions where I have almost said "lol" out loud, before realising I'm not actually on the internet. I think that may say more about me tho "lol" Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
