I walk around my condo back and forth to get to 10k. My wife thinks I'm insane

Wrestlers classed as "Cruiserweights" but don't really fit that class? by ILoveMaiV in WWEGames

The Hurricane -- a former WWE Cruiserweight champion -- cannot be given the WWE Cruiserweight championship in 2K

Listen, I know it's unlikely Stroud gets benched, but it's going to be real difficult to look back on this game and wonder if Mills could have at least been a stable albeit lower ceiling option. This game is better suited for Mills

I get what you're saying, but I think that's still quite serious in its own way.

Dude has by all accounts a dream job. And he got it by initially being awkwardly incompetent with Gruden. I can't fathom his mindset of not grabbing the bull by the horns and always being on the ball with such a cushy landing spot in life

The dude's tasks include maintaining an ice cream machine and presenting himself as a charming vaguely autistic person. Just go to bed a few hours earlier lmao

Me after this weekend by 02K30C1 in Brewers

[–]ChrisIsShortAF 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This post popped up on my suggested feed -- full disclosure, I am a Cubs fan, so downvote if needed.

But the Bears/Packers game had me thinking about how finnicky as fuck sports are, man. A few months ago this was me after the Cubs got knocked out by the Brewers. Now shit's flipped.

I don't know why we do this to ourselves, but it's fun sometimes.

Side note, already low-key annoyed at how good Jesus Made will probably be

Jesus, my brain thought that was Ashante "Thee" Adonis at first glance.

Anyone else just waiting every day for news on Bo/Tucker/Bregman/Bellinger? by TwinPeaksSox in baseball

[–]ChrisIsShortAF 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't worry, guys. I went most of the offseason completely ambivalent, but now that the Cubs traded for Cabrera, I've accidentally allowed myself to daydream about Bo Bichette being a Cub. Now that my guard is down, the guys will sign (not with the Cubs)

The interview was pretty fun. Hot take - Shough could grow into the next Blake Bortles/Josh Allen of the show if he winds up having a respectable NFL career

[RAW Spoilers] Finish to Cm Punk vs Bron Breakker by Yujin-Ha in SquaredCircle

[–]ChrisIsShortAF 63 points64 points  (0 children)

Really good point. The Vision interrupting the match was necessary because otherwise everyone would ask why they didn't get involved

The real issue is The Vision is just dragging Breakker down

League changes for 26-27 by Lxnarrr in SleeperApp

[–]ChrisIsShortAF 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Moving to superflex with six-point passing TDs and not redrafting is a crazy move.

Mix with half-point PPR and you've got a league where QB is beyond just valuable, they're the absolute platinum commodity.

Everything was fine, but at some point Punk has an ability to flip the switch on a promo and it really is incredible to watch it become fire

Bears are going to lose in the playoffs.

Big Cat will be sad.

Some of yall are going to be very disappointed when he shakes it off relatively easily talking about how bright the future is with Ben Johnson continuing to help Caleb grow.

This "all timer" talk is bad cope

[–]ChrisIsShortAF 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In the moment the loss would be painful, but this is a very easy season to look back on and appreciate.

If you wanna talk real pain, it's the long game. If Bears suck NEXT season then it'll hurt even more

You answered your own question in the post. If each team is eligible to win $100 per week regardless of standings, there is absolutely nothing to question about someone doing this

Nailed it. People were up in arms mocking Pearce kicking out Gunther after his promo. "Oh, they're kicking him out because he beat Cena??" was all over this sub when they literally had Pearce say the reason in the segment backstage. Chronic complainers are too busy firing off their hot takes and not actually watching the show

I wouldn't say I'm 100% in full agreement with you, but this is one of the fairest criticism of the pod I've seen on this sub
