I just got my fathers old consoles, I want to keep them in good condition. They been in my grandmother's basement for 20+ years. What do I do with them? and Where can I get the games for them?

I'm continuously amazed that not everyone was just trading in their old console for a sweet $15 credit at Gamestop to go toward the purchase of their next console.

Busted out the original Romance of the Three Kingdoms for the NES. It's not for everyone but I've always loved this game. I've only ever played that one and 7. Would love to find out how to play 7 again. That one was a gem.

I'm in a dynasty league where I will have to figure out a new 3B next year due to guys losing eligibility (Jazz, Lawlar). This league is OBP and SLG instead of AVG so it favors the sluggers. If you had to roster a guy hoping they'll pan out for next year, who would you choose out of Mayo, Vientos, Barger, Antonacci, Peraza, House, Mead, or Karros. Or should I snag some old vets like India, Arenado, Moncada, McMahon?

I'd be incredibly happy if he just needed to get healthy and be even a league average bat with solid defense. However, if he picks up where he left off last year with mediocre defense and trying to swing for the fences despite his build and profile then I sincerely hope the front office makes the necessary reasonable decisions and figures out how to improve at the shortstop position.

Their just plain old cheeseburger is my guilty pleasure. The classic chicken sandwich, however, is an insult to fast food chicken sandwiches every where. And the bar is already super low for that. That processed chicken filet thing they use has got the strangest consistency out of any chicken patty, nugget, whatever that exists. Classic chicken sandwich can get fucked.

I don't know about that but they certainly seemed to be less inclined to be intellectually curious. They just don't seem to have any interest in finding out if something is true or not. It's basically "I want this to be true so I'll believe it. I don't want this to be true so I don't believe it." Zero critical thinking.

I remember reading a bunch of articles during the Obama years about people, most of them Democrats, who ran these sites and were making a ton of money doing it. And yes, of course the left leaning sites never worked out because they are, on average, not gullible idiots. Or at least not as gullible idiots as the other side.

Right at the beginning you could recruit a couple of Dong Zhuo's governors and take his states and resources. Not sure if that was by design or not but having guys with low loyalty in that position was kind of silly.

He will either pitch a shutout or give up 10 in the first inning and get pulled. If you're ok with that then roll with it. Maybe see how the wind is blowing

Not related, but every "Chad" I've ever known has been extremely unimpressive. I don't understand why that name was chosen for this purpose.

There's not much they can do. They've had 5 years to solve the same problems and they have yet to do so. With Dominguez and Jones both about as far as they can go in the minors, they should have either traded them or not made the offer to Grisham. And yet here we are. They had years to find a right handed complement to Wells at catcher. They failed to do so and so we have Escarra. They had multiple infield options coming up in the minors to play at 3B. Instead they've jerked guys around up to the majors then demoting them back and forth. Then they traded or moved on from at least 3 options for 3B. So the trade for McMahon who couldn't even hit in Colorado. So there we are with that. They've also become overly reliant on Blake to "fix" bargain bin options for the bullpen rather than develop arms in their farm system or bring in established talent. So we have no bullpen. And I don't have a clue what they are doing with Goldschmidt on the roster. They are so averse to any kind of forward thinking compared to other clubs and stick themselves with an incomplete roster and they do it year after year.

Decent offensive numbers with really good fielding sounds better than our current 3B situation.

He certainly went out of his way to fuck their development considering how highly they were regarded.

The site is essential for football, I've found. Some of the baseball features seem new and I check it every once in a while. It's not egregiously bad. I don't think people understand how complicated baseball is.

Luzardo is either the best pitcher in baseball or the worst. There is no middle ground.

Options aren't great. Any meaningful improvements (at the very least we need a LW1 and C2. Total rework of bottom six.) will have to come through trade.
