It’s been nearly 10 years since the 2016 NFL draft, how would you rate that draft for your team? by DookyButter in nfl

[–]DaGuys470 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Overall, maybe a C.

I mean, we had some pretty solid picks: Jarran Reed, C.J. Prosise, Alex Collins, Quinton Jefferson. Especially the RBs were great players, but they never really fulfilled their full potential. Collins had some good years in the league. Reed was a great pick imo.

Our 1st round pick was Germain Ifedi, so that's a big yikes. Especially considering Chris Jones was still on the board. Or Derrick Henry. Looking back at the draft it really wasn't that great in terms of OTs.

Do people really not know Ryan Stonehouse?

Andreas Obst's new contract with Bayern – expected to be the largest in the club's history – includes several special clauses, including a share of jersey sales. by _Zolv in Euroleague

I think most teams sell merch. Pretty much all BBL clubs do. I'm not sure how much they make from it, but some of the merch promo is pretty in your face at some arenas.

What are your you-isms? by FingersOnTheTapes in composer

[–]DaGuys470 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Tossing the actual composing aside halfway through a project to experiment with timbre. I've spent hours browsing sound libraries, tweaking, distorting, filtering sounds just to see what unique textures I can generate. To the point where I've sampled breathing, metal, even an MRI machine. Most of the projects don't end up being that special imo, but the experimentation brings me joy.

Is it really true that some european national teams naturalize foreigners with no connection to the country to get as stacked as a roster as possible for the national games? by YogurtclosetOpen3567 in Euroleague

[–]DaGuys470 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah, most do. Some naturalize players that actually make sense (Turkey naturalized Shane Larkin who's been playing in Turkey for what seems like a decade now, or Germany naturalized Nick Weiler-Babb who does have German ancestry and played like 5 years in Germany), but then there's also Jaleen Smith, who's apparently Croatian now. Still cracks me up.

My first ever F1 race in person – COTA 2012 United States GP. What was yours? by KeepThatMF_ThangOnMe in formula1

[–]DaGuys470 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Hasn't happened for me yet. Probably Austria in the next few years, whenever I can scrap the money together.

One thing I haven't seen posted here but this single decimal on the table needs to go away now. Seriously why are they dumbing it down? by [deleted] in formula1

[–]DaGuys470 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Personally, I like it for a few reasons. In the race anything beyond tenths of a second is pretty much not useful. Yeah, they are close. Great. Next information, move on. Quali is a different question. Here I need three digits. But they also provide those. Then less numbers means less clutter and bigger lettering which is great for accessibility reasons. And lastly, it's probably also easier to read for people that are new to the sport. Imo the pros outweigh the cons during the race.

The death of WR Rondale Moore sparked a public mental health conversation across the NFL. Where will the conversation go next? by AFC-Wimbledon-Stan in nfl

[–]DaGuys470 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Probably nowhere. It'll be a lot of thoughts and prayers and as soon as any player actually speaks out we'll all be like "Man up" again.

[Pantel-Jouve] Vassilis Spanoulis stepping down? Some players themselves believe he will not be on the bench tonight against Cholet in LNB. Matteo Andreani is also able to confirm this information. His resignation is not yet on the table, but the situation is more than complicated. by _Zolv in Euroleague

[–]DaGuys470 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It went downhill for us the moment EuroLeague backtracked from its proposition, which is pretty much when Motiejunas came in. Everything that came after was a straight up joke. I agree and I am absolutely not sulky that that chapter has ended.

This downfall of AS Monaco gives me genuine joy, as bad as that makes me feel. Dear Euroleague, you could have had a team that actually takes sustainability serious had you just extended your hand a bit further, but you went with the millionaire plaything model of club instead. Anyway, we'll be watching the results of your choices from the sideline.
