DO NOT WATCH if you are sensitive to flashing lights. DO NOT WATCH. This video is likely not good for your brain or eyes. This video uses 100% locally sourced organic recycled pixels. The theme this weekend is 'repetition' and I think that's covered here. Created for the Weekend Challenge: Vimeo Weekend Challenge

16 top-ranked jobs, squaring off in a tournament for all the marbles!
7 different classic sports game settings!
10 of the most famous (and infamous) commentator calls of all time!
This meeting of minds and pixel-based bodies on the fields of simulated battle decides the ultimate 80's video game championship - The 8-Bit Cup!
Inspired by a Keith Olbermann broadcast Mar 20, 2014.
In homage to great jobs I've had and great calls I've heard over the years.
