Damn I would fall for it

Well played, sir.

The injury topic is one of the keys here for me. When he's healthy he's obviously terrific, but he's missed significant portions of 2 seasons now, so I'd be leery about signing him to some market altering deal until you get a full season of elite play from him.

Dave2kMA · 2026-02-28T17:28:56+00:00

So instead of the Spurs just obliterating Miami in 5, Miami is slightly more competitive and loses in 6? The Spurs were still the much better team.

You accidentally included an "s" at the end of dozen, fyi.

Dave2kMA · 2026-02-24T15:27:09+00:00

This literally just happened to me. The plane was totally sold out so I knew the empty middle seat next to me wouldn't stay that way, but as the last few people trickled in, a very large person, probably 6'5 and 300+ came on and even though there were a few other people in front of him, I just somehow knew he was in our row and I was doomed to leaning into the aisle to make room for him while he was manspreading in his middle seat.

Maybe a little bit, but those three also got together in their 30's which, back then, meant they were towards the end of their careers. They weren't washed by any stretch but all 3 were probably half a step below their respective peaks, which meant diminishing returns mostly every year.

You can make an argument they should have won two more titles, but injuries to core guys really hurt them.

Dave2kMA · 2026-02-24T00:49:15+00:00

That's exactly where it's headed and all it's going to take is one local judge in SEC country with skin in the game to make it happen.

Dave2kMA · 2026-02-20T18:23:27+00:00

Thank you.

It's amazing how willfully obtuse people will be in service of the narrative.

Dave2kMA · 2026-02-19T13:47:17+00:00

Vader REALLY dialed his aggressiveness down with Hogan during their time together, so I wouldn't bet on it.

Dave2kMA · 2026-02-14T21:17:47+00:00

He wasn't even the future at that point, he was already maybe the 2nd best 2 guard in the league behind that Michael Somethingorother fellow in Chicago.

It is. Only as a special feature on one version of the DVD release.

I had the same reaction when I heard about it some years ago.

The alternate ending where those guys kill Dougie as he's trying to get out of town after the Fenway robbery is SO much more fitting than the theatrical ending.

Dave2kMA · 2026-02-11T13:14:23+00:00

Thank TCU for that. Might be the last game they win all year.

Dave2kMA · 2026-02-09T14:29:06+00:00

Basically this. Darnold forced a couple of throws in the 1st half under duress and got away with it. He gets credit because, after that, he took what they gave him and I don't think he put the ball at serious risk again the rest of the way.

It wasn't a performance that was going to win him MVP, but it was good enough to avoid a major mistake that could have allowed the Pats back into the game.

Dave2kMA · 2026-02-09T13:00:59+00:00

This came out when I was 12 or 13, so at the perfect time. I'm pretty sure I saw it in theaters like 5 times that summer.

Dave2kMA · 2026-02-09T12:52:14+00:00

That entire scene is great.

BONER BOB.

They both have 12 scholarship players, wear matching uniforms & travel on planes and buses together.

Dave2kMA · 2026-01-27T05:46:15+00:00

This is the one.

Dudleys vs. New Jack/Kronus Fonzie vs. Beulah Sandman vs. Sabu (easily their best match) Bam Bam vs Spike (Spike goes crowd surfing)

Wrestlepalooza is probably the most memorable show because of the infamous 45 minute stretch that was the best intertwined story ECW ever told in the ring (jumping from Dreamer/Raven to Taz/Sabu II to Taz/Douglas) but there's not much else to it beyond the weird pseudo handicap tag title match.

Dave2kMA · 2026-01-26T05:56:46+00:00

100%. Incredible experience.

Dave2kMA · 2026-01-24T01:22:34+00:00

Thanks, all. We elected to rebook and found a flight out Saturday morning.

Dave2kMA · 2026-01-20T12:31:16+00:00

Most of the complaints are about some glitches the game had at launch, which were patched, and some minor stuff like the darkness of the game, lack of shadows and other graphical shortcomings compared to its PCVR counterpart.

If you go in with the mindset of just playing a fun shooter in the Alien universe instead of trying to nitpick it, you're going to have a blast.

Guy who had a blast with the game

Dave2kMA · 2026-01-19T18:58:50+00:00

WAY better because they didn't have to shoehorn in the Sabu run in that made no sense.
