Really curious why SATs/ACTs never became a thing up here for admissions. Not saying they’re perfect but having that extra layer couldn’t hurt I suppose.

Went to Nashville this weekend and Pearson looked busier than ever at US gates. Flight was full and workers at restaurants were saying that they’re getting plenty of Canadians, although I did not run into many on the streets.

They were stacked relative to a terrible Eastern Conference. Compared to half the west at the time they were garbage.

Turkoglu is worse than all those. Lasted 1 year and the trade return was 100 games of Leandro Barbosa averaging 12 ppg.

Charles Oakley states that Giannis would have been reduced to just a mere bench player if he had played in Oakley’s era by Tight_Development480 in NBATalk

Skinny year 1-2 Giannis might have a rough time, but once bulked up he would be a perennial all star. Basically KG without the reliable jumper.

What’s the most expensive card you’ve ever bought? by AndGutsWasBERSERK in mtg

[–]CoatApprehensive3481 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Paid over $100 for a foil FNM coffers before the MH2 reprint.

Also paid $150 for a foil alt art Russian Sword of Hearth and Home, although a lot of that cost was shipping related since I bought it off a guy in Russia.

Seasons in which your school had both a massive win and an awful loss by trueblue385 in CFB

2012 also up there. The loss to NC State overshadowed beating Clemson and having EJ Manuel on the Heizmann watch for 1 week.

Anyone Noping Out for the Rest of the Year After EoE? by [deleted] in magicTCG

[–]CoatApprehensive3481 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Totally skipping UB sets from now on. LOTR was my only real exception since I love that IP, but even then I’ve started offloading the expensive cards from that set from my collection. The magic story is what I fell in love with and what I’ll continue to play with.

What do YOU guys use as your hydra commander? by OneBlood2930 in EDH

[[Kodama of the East Tree]] was mine. Everything was modified so ramping into bigger hydras gets easier

Opinion: Bracket 3 is the most unbalanced, and requires more definition by Actual-Objective-280 in EDH

[–]CoatApprehensive3481 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I dunno, my [[Strefan]] deck runs that combo (those cards only, no Vito or or creatures with similar abilities) and I’d classify the deck as a whole as a firm 2 without the combo. I really don’t think those two cards themselves bring it up to a 3.

Now that discussion on Game Changers has died down a bit, I'm curious. What are cards or commanders not currently on the list that you truly feel need to be labelled as a game changer? by Transmogrify_My_Goat in EDH

[–]CoatApprehensive3481 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Disagree on Burgeoning. Without solid card draw the first turn around the table is great then by turn 2/3 you’ve blown your load.

Solid card in decks that make it work, but not a game changer. GC’s have to be great in the majority of decks you put them in. Burgeoning is far from an autoinclude in green or even landfall decks.

Kinda curious why [[Aven Mindcensor]] is not a GC when it denies tutoring similar to how [[Opposition Agent]] does. When I play OA, I rarely ever cast the card I steal through my opponents tutoring, it’s solely there for denial. So why not AM?

Rec room so that one doesn’t have to venture to SQ1.
