Geez, did they ever slam the guy for owning pinballs...

Did you get a look at the guy making the slam? He looked like he knew what women really wanted.

Poor taste for them to make a comment like that IMHO.

Otherwise a nice segment.

Agree - obviously from Vancouver  

I sense a little defensiveness in the crowd.    Dropped into Playdium Store to pick up my Championship Stern T-shirt and participants package today - little consolation for having to miss it all!

At what point did it go from being about the guys ability to play pinball into his personal relationships with others?

Leave it to the media to go in uninformed about a topic and try to put a spin on it that they feel comfortable to work with.

Yeah, typical media.  I've listened to the first 5 seconds of that clip twenty times, any each time I hear her say 'plays a bean pinball' for the lyrics to Pinball Wizard.  Anyone else hear that or am I on drugs?

Yep. I bet if you wrote "I am clueless" across the teleprompter it would get read without pause.

What a putz... I hate judgmental pricks like that. He thinks he is just hot mess because he is a second-rate reporter on Vancouver'S 5th network. Weird Al Yankovic does a better job on UHF...

On a more serious side, why does this guy bash Eden for owning pinballs? You know what? My wife HATES pinball, but she loves the fact that it keeps me home instead of getting hammered at a local bar, or just leaving with buddies every evening. It is a hobby, just like playing consoles, or painting, or collecting stamps, or playing a musical instrument.

And instead of laughing at Eden for the ''pinball is a sport'' comment, he should reflect on what Eden said... if there is poker and darts on TV, why not pinball? True reflection.

And on a personal note, they seem to paint Eden as a pinball-version of the comic-book guy on the Simpsons. I met Eden, and had a chance to chat with him. A truly nice and very intelligent man. So what if he delivers pizza. If he makes a good living, and he loves his job, compared to a guy who is successful but miserable, I rather be like Eden.
