Campus Confidential

I'm still playing phone tag with an agent for the next installment of "Draft this Guy."

Until then, I rediscovered "Risk."

The game is actually 51 years old, but I'm calling for a resurgence.

Why?

Well, how many board games are about global domination?

And the Newman-Kramer battle, as featured above, is unforgettable.

I rest my case.

I rediscovered "Risk" because a few of my college friends who live afar have been playing the actual board game and gloating about it on our listserv. Frankly, it made me jealous.

So I did a little Googling...

If you have Facebook, you can install the "Attack!" application here. I've played this version. It's awesome. I'm currently coordinating battles with said friends and trying to figure out how to get my Newsday firewall to give me access. We'll keep that between us. None of the editors like college football, anyway.

No Facebook? There's also Riskattack.com. I have yet to try, but I am sure it's a great way to go.

Now, some of you may be saying, "Wait a minute, 'Risk' never went anywhere for me." If that's the case, you rule.

Just remember: The Ukraine is not a game.
