i mean, that pent up energy sitting in from of the tube has to go somewhere....

I totally agree. I know when my cousins and I were little we spend hours just outside playing hide and seek, football, or any little game we found. My cousins had a Sega Genesis and I had the NES (and then later the Super NES) but we seriously played those for like 15 minutes---they bored us.
Now I see my younger cousins (who range in age from 6-13) and all they do is watch TV, stay on the computer, or play video games. Its ridiculous that they can't go outside and play, or ride their bikes for more than 3-5 minutes.
