Ty Nichols, pitcher:"The Situation, because I coordinate and I'm the boss."

Mendonca:"'Madden,' I just dominate."

Chadwick:"'Madden 11' because I beatMendonca."

Nichols:"'FIFA 11' because I got into soccer after the World Cup."

Who's better: Michael Jordan or LeBron James?

Mendonca: "MJ. Six rings to none for LeBron."

Chadwick:"Jordan. Never saw MJ play but LeBron sucks."

Nichols:"Kobe Bryant, but MJ if I had to pick one. LeBron is a trophy chaser."

Which "Jersey Shore" cast member is head coach Reggie Christiansen?

Nichols:"Definitely The Situation. He calls the shots, he leads and we follow."
