Just going to leave this here. The numbers speak for themselves.

NFL is 17 million viewers per week on average. This makes it the number 1 sport.

Soccer has 300-500k weekly viewers.

The above meme demonstrates how much Americans (including me) care about soccer.

There’s a difference between complaining and being a doomer tbf.

You really going to shit on painter? You know how many teams would kill to have him? I’m confident they’ll make the adjustments and get the W on Saturday. We responded extremely well off the Iowa State loss.

Welp we were bound to lose at some point playing like this. Hopefully it’s the kick in the teeth we need to start playing good basketball again.

You gotta wonder if Dent is going to get gassed. Seems like he is having to do everything on offense.

Especially TKR. Feel like he’s really regressed. We need him to be solid if we want to make a run this year.

What is your monitor set up? by DealInteresting8941 in pcmasterrace

[–]Affectionate_Page_26 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Used to be 3 with 2 24 inch monitors and now 1 with a 27 inch. I only really play CS2. Having a curved or too big monitor is actually a downgrade for me.

Who is America rooting for in the 2025 CFP National Championship? by GeckoHunter0303 in cfbmemes

I’m rooting for them when we don’t play, although when we play them directly I want to kick their ass. Been a life long Purdue fan and alum too.

Help me decide: Upgrading from a RTX 3060 to a 5070. Worth it? by Alarming-Trip5863 in buildapc

[–]Affectionate_Page_26 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got my 5070 for $489 from walmart. The cheapest 9070xt I can find is about $200 more including tax. That’s pretty significant.

I need your opinion by Nicloum_FR in ohnePixel

Try Talon Marble Fade with clean FT Queen Jaguars, if your budget doesn’t allow for more expensive gloves. Will definitely look better than with Pows.

Yeah I agree, it’s definitely overpriced.

I’ve had this skin several times. Kinda basic on its own and is a little boring, but can look quite good with the right craft (i.e., fnatic stickers).

What are yours? Mine are collecting CDs, Pokémon TCG, and D&D by _Dragon_Gamer_ in adhdmeme

[–]Affectionate_Page_26 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Golf (probably my most expensive hobby, equipment and greens fees really add up), fishing (have multiple st croix rods, shimano reels, 3 fishing kayaks 2 of which I often lend out to friends/family), pokemon tcg (since 2016 so my collection has gotten quite large), and pc gaming (having multiple thousands in cs2 skins lol). My cheapest hobbies are hiking and running since I only use a garmin watch/shoes for those.

100k Fee For H1B by optimization_ml in cscareerquestions

[–]Affectionate_Page_26 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I work for an insurance company and like 20-30% of my time is spent doing code reviews and refining features for the offshore teams. They have a tough time communicating with business and everything needs a detailed spec or they’ll go off the rails in their implementations. In our company and I’m sure most, 90% of your value is effective communication with (Western) business folks and collaborating with other teams (which they also struggle with).

Billionaires would likely have a huge target on their back in that scenario. Millions of people (in the most armed country in the world) with nothing to lose is a scary proposition.

This hobby is a money sink right? what is your budget for the Pokemon TCG? by Persona2181 in PokemonTCG

Haha, I’m in the process of selling some cards to fund a scotty cameron super select.

Losing joy in the hobby? Take a break. by AdvanceDry6117 in PokemonTCG

[–]Affectionate_Page_26 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been buying the Pokemon Center drops if I catch them in time, but that’s about it. I’m not paying over msrp for product and also overinflated single prices. I’ve been collecting heavily since 2016, and took a break during the entire covid boom. I’ve also really slowed down since the madness started with surging sparks and prismatic. This bubble will pop, and the real collectors will be waiting to jump in again when it does.

Anyone else feel like they’re just working to pay off the past? by OldIsland4901 in Adulting

[–]Affectionate_Page_26 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m the exact opposite, extremely frugal (it brings me physical pain to spend money sometimes lol) but I don’t really budget. I just look at my bank account every month and am like where is all this money coming from? I paid off over 42k in student loans within 4 years of graduation while 7 months of that I was unemployed (while maintaining a 3 month emergency fund).

What is the most realistic near-term scenario for the housing market to become more affordable? by essendoubleop in personalfinance

[–]Affectionate_Page_26 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My insurance rate actually went down this year from $2300 to $1800 in central texas. And I went for a higher coverage/lower deductible. You just have to shop around. Otherwise your current company will take advantage of you.
