Developer / Filler Text

Like Champions World Class Soccer and ESPN Speedworld, this includes some goofy filler text. Starts at 0x18D59A:

This is the way we pad the ROM, pad the ROM, pad the rom... Boy, you sure are wasting lots o' bytes. Learn to be more frugal. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Still more space to pad? Why not add another sound or two. Youd think that game programmers today would be more careful about using all available ROM space, but I guess not. Four score and seven years ago yatta yatta yatta. Who the heck is looking at this anyway. This is a ROM, no one sees this, WHO ARE YOU, WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE? Quit snooping around and play this great game.
