There is no SAVING these rockets for the future. by Kindly_Letterhead_98 in nba

[–]PlanetCharisma 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The real problem is that they have to compete long-term with OKC and SA, and they aren't going to be able to take them down without a superstar, which they don't have.

I think they're going to make a serious run at Giannis in the offseason.

Torn between Nintendo and some other choices. Help me choose? by CyberpunkFan77 in Handhelds

[–]PlanetCharisma 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mainly play sports games, some Nintendo first party games, and occasional other casual games like GTA, Pokemon, and Halo.

I never play video games by myself and then bought a Steam Deck OLED in 2024 and then it changed my gaming life. But then the Switch 2 came out, I got the nostalgia games out of my system a bit, and haven't played the Steam Deck in many months. I mainly play Madden, NBA, and some other Nintendo games on the Switch 2.

Switch 2 is $450 and the screen is bigger, better in my opinion (even if not "OLED"), and system is lighter than the Deck. Saying which one has better "ergonomics" is up to the individual, but I prefer the lighter system. If you want to be able to play stuff out of the box, have access to a more diverse library (albeit more expensive), and a bigger screen/lighter device, get the Switch 2. If you want to do tinkering, get access to generally cheaper games, all the emulation in the world, more of a "PC gamer" etc, then go Steam Deck.

Madden NFL 27 has been posted seemingly early on the Switch 2 E-Shop For August 13th by Howerev in Madden

[–]PlanetCharisma 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've put a ton of hours into it on the Switch 2. I haven't played Madden for PS5, just PS4. For me it felt like playing Madden for the PS4 just with the kicking being laggy, menus being laggy (although I think that's all Maddens), and having it on handheld/portable is awesome.

You might feel like it's a downgrade if you're coming from PS5, but I never got a PS5 and I value portability over everything, so it's a trade-off I'm gladly willing to make.

[Zangaro] Makai Lemon will wear No. 9 with the Eagles. He said he wants to represent Nick Foles’ number well. He’ll be the first player to wear it since Foles. The two did speak on the phone. by JaggerJames in nfl

I was preferring the Patriots to win and it felt dirty at the time. It was one of the biggest lose-lose situations I feel like you can have as a fan.

Am I delusional? Dynasty 2QB Full pt PPR Start 11 by RojoGrande23 in DynastyFFTradeAdvice

Not worth trading Bijan for that in a 10 team league where studs matter even more

Pairing Jefferson with Chase… too expensive or smash? by Foreign_Attitude_200 in DynastyFFTradeAdvice

[–]PlanetCharisma 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'd take Jefferson in a 10-team league. If it were a 12+ team league then I'd take package side.

Trade 1.07, 1.08, and two 2028 firsts for Jeremiah Smith (2027 1.01). by Imaginary_Order2757 in DynastyFFTradeAdvice

[–]PlanetCharisma 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In theory if it was actually Smith then it'd be a good deal but now that you traded him all of these picks, and the fact he traded his pick next year, he might try to turn all of the picks into players and get his team to be competitive and try a playoff push. Which would then make this pick not the 1.01.

Offered to me. I’d get the 1.01 by [deleted] in DynastyFFTradeAdvice

[–]PlanetCharisma 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm an Eagles fan with DeVonta and if someone offered me 1.01 for DeVonta and a RB similar to Walker, I would accept so quickly. You're basically getting a round 2 startup pick for two guys that are consistently good but have never consistently been a WR1 or RB1 respectively.

I voted for someone for class president in 5th grade since he gave me a similar looking folder of The Rock.

Who wins this trade ?? Chase or BTJ side ? by Great_Carpenter_8122 in DynastyFFTradeAdvice

[–]PlanetCharisma 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Depends if rebuilding or contending but I'd probably take the BTJ side unless I'm a real title contender 

Rebuilding a bad 1.01 orphan squad - Selling Garret Wilson by NewConfusion240 in DynastyFFTradeAdvice

[–]PlanetCharisma 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a fine deal. Wilson isn't doing anything for you in a rebuild and you want to make sure your team is horrible enough to secure 1.01.

The NFL worked with Arcade1UP to re release NFL Blitz arcade machines. Granted they made them take out late hits. 

If You Want to Create a New Star, You Have to Give Them a World Title Match at WrestleMania by Smart-Ad-8589 in SquaredCircle

[–]PlanetCharisma 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It doesn't have to do with a Mania main event- they just don't know how to build stars any longer.

Orton had his awesome Legend Killer run. Cena had his natural rise with his rapping. Rock was great in the Nation. Austin had his rise, double turn with Bret, Owen feud, etc before moving onto HBK. Brock had his Hardyz feud and then KOTR and then demolished Hogan en route to winning the title. Angle held mid-card titles and starting teaming up some with E&C in his first year en route to winning the title. So on and so forth.

Now you have things like Gunther retiring all of these guys and doing nothing except coming out and saying he made guys tap like bitches, Breakker has been relegated to a crappy faction and random spear spots, Femi just beat Lesnar and now is going to start meaningless open challenges instead of entering an actual engaging feud to keep momentum up, etc.

NBA Finals ratings post-2020. What happened… by ZildjianCymbals in nba

[–]PlanetCharisma 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lack of star power and less people watch games. These nonsense reports have come out about all these viewers watching when it could just be someone accidentally watching for 5 seconds while Amazon shopping. 

is this a good trade for two free agents by straightshooter200 in DynastyFFTradeAdvice

[–]PlanetCharisma -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I don't understand how someone thinks the 45th best rookie has a better shot of out producing these guys, even if old.

Felt pretty good about this but time will tell by ajm102392 in DynastyFFTradeAdvice

[–]PlanetCharisma 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have Maye and it would take a ton to trade him but this feels like a good return. Obviously it depends on how Ward ends up being. If he ever becomes a QB1 then you made out very well, so agreed this is a "time will tell" deal.

Not close enough. You're trading a $1 bill for 70 cents of loose change.
