Derek Lidbom is suffering from extreme muscle soreness after playing an excessive amount of Wii Sports (bowling, tennis, boxing and baseball). The game is definitely as dangerous as we were warned.I would advise that you clear out all open beverage containers and other possible carpet damaging vessels. 🙂 But, it’s fun.
