This week on The Nailed It Wall Miss Scofield and Mr. Lane the STEM Guy bring back Mr. Humphrey by popular demand to talk all things a video game. Listen to the impact of EA Sports College Football returning has meant to two friends working in education. There was a trophy ceremony, speeches and families in attendance. to witness it all. EA Sports 25 returned with a bang and it truly had a lasting impact on two educators who view it as much more than a game even though EA Sports says "It's In the Game.".
