SELECT * FROM Games

As an aside, * is best not used outside of COUNT(), EXISTS(), and ad-hoc queries. A column list would self-document the code, and prevent any issues that may arise from column changes, such as adding, deleting, or reordering.

> prevent any issues that may arise from column changes, such as adding, deleting, or reordering well using DBI->fetchrow_hashref should solve this, except maybe by not rasing an instant error for deleted columns (but the code would need to be rewritten in that case anyway.)
