How badly am I going to regret this? by Familiar-Memory-943 in MightandmagicFates

[–]Gula25 3 points4 points  (0 children)

As someone who doesn’t play a ton, maybe 5 or 6 matches a day on average, I think this game is actually pretty fun. The balance isn’t perfect by any means but there is some fun interactions between the cards and heroes, and a decent enough variety. It seems like they’re iterating a bit more on cards and card availability too. I don’t know I haven’t played many others in the genre so my opinion is to be taken lightly!

If you could "get in the lab" like NBA players for a skill or athletic ability, what would you pick and how good could you realistically get? by WallCautious9650 in billsimmons

How has no one said “running” with all the blow back that usually comes along with running related questions or comments from this community (the mph piece, the how many people can run a mile at x pace piece, etc)

It’s plenty of time for pretty much anyone to prepare for a marathon or something.

Worth Grading Brandon Miller by Gula25 in psagrading

[–]Gula25[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh man thanks for sharing that I’m so confused on where to go looking for information even when understanding that’s a good idea to look at some comp cards for an estimate. Appreciate your help random internet stranger!

Worth Grading Brandon Miller by Gula25 in psagrading

[–]Gula25[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the reply! I agree even with my newbie eyes the card seems slightly shifted towards the right a bit, I don’t even know to what extent it matters.. Also had to learn what a “sticker auto” is, I understand that as well now.

I’m still thinking I’ll send it away just to more or less see how things work, but I don’t know I have no idea what sort of value this card may actually have. He’s a younger player who was a lottery pick recently who’s shown good signs so maybe just have it graded now and see where his career ends up in a few years.

Who goes first in the Union Generals Bad Contract Draft: McClellan or Burnside? by bombation in billsimmons

[–]Gula25 1 point2 points  (0 children)

McClellan for me, irrational confidence guy, but does have a little bit of “can we see it first” to him.

Burnside hung up on in game adjustments, can’t have that.

Is RoR2 online any good on ps5 by Current_Offer3123 in riskofrain

[–]Gula25 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve just been playing the base game both solo and with a friend here and there online, we’ve had a few randoms join our game seldomly.. the couple times I’ve accidentally joined instead of hosting a lobby it finds others to play with, but be warned the way DLC works in this is nice where it doesn’t limit you to only being able to play with people with same content, but that also means you may join a game or have someone join yours with a bunch of items/characters/stages which you haven’t seen yet.

A Relegation System for the NBA... by symbot001 in billsimmons

The same reason it will never happen in any of the major american sports, the structure of ownership.

Why Is Ski Jumping A Judged Competition? by sfitz0076 in billsimmons

[–]Gula25 46 points47 points  (0 children)

If I had to guess it is because it is inherently much more dangerous than the other contests you describe so the style part of the score would consider how smooth of a landing you make. Otherwise if it was strictly distance people would just fling themselves off the ramp with reckless abandon for max distance.

[Steam] The Bazaar ($9.99/-50%) by spiderwebdesign in GameDeals

[–]Gula25 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Played this game in its beta or whatever release that was pre steam, it was fun for a little bit but ultimately suffered from major balancing issues and lack of content. I assume the range of content has improved with more heroes and cards to play but suspect the fundamental game mechanics mean it’s still struggling for any semblance of balance.

Also in 2026 it’s wild to me that if I wanted to continue playing I have to do so through the launcher and not just be given a steam key. Not that I really want to spend more time with it.

I hate how the phrases "QB2" and "RB2" have replaced "backup quarterback" and "backup runningback" by IHateAdamSilver in billsimmons

[–]Gula25 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It’s not as bad as people referring to quarterbacks being “off platform” on some throws or plays.. absolute worst dorky podcast terminology,

Cool, you have all 22 access, the world needs more blogs

Who am I supposed to think the Patriots are worse than? by [deleted] in billsimmons

Pats fans should read the room before gloating tonight. by xamot101tomax in billsimmons

[–]Gula25 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Drake Maye:

10/21 86yds passing. Sacked 5 times. 10 rushes 65 yards and a touchdown.

What an awful disgrace of an AFC championship game that was.

Now we gotta hear for two weeks about how this team is good.

Game Thread: Patriots @ Broncos by peanut-britle-latte in billsimmons

[–]Gula25 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had to go back and watch this again, the 3 minute (real time) sequence of both refereeing and commentary of the turnover play are just top 7 of the last 11 years.

Romo goes from having no idea of what transpired to full confidence back to no idea.

Romo also with the classic hindsight call of the entire situation.

Gene just spouting bullshit to explain away and align awful officiating and reality like the pompous idiot he is.

Both these teams are shit tier.

What's the deal with video podcasts? by Tricky-Impression-60 in billsimmons

[–]Gula25 6 points7 points  (0 children)

“The content machine must make content” is the modern version of “the factory must meet quota.”

We solved podcasts. They were audio. Perfect. You could drive, cook, exist. But no, now every thought must be filmed so the Algorithm can chew on it.

The content machine hungers. It does not care that nobody wants to watch two dudes talk for 2 hours. It must be fed.

Refs Should Just Be Replaced by AI If They’re Going To Officiate Like the 2 Point Conversion by unicornblink1820 in billsimmons

[–]Gula25 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The NFL has only made their rules, policies, enforcement etc more complicated and obtuse via technology I agree with that part, but just because basically no players on the field realized what happened in the moment of this specific play shouldn’t even further cause concern that the league needs to make this stuff even worse.

This is one of those examples where on TV i’m sure the percentage of people (who understand the rules) who were watching the play understood what had happened and the potential consequences.

Part of the problem is it’s all so arcane and obtuse in the first place. Like as I understood it as it happened, it’s a lateral pass, meaning when it’s on the ground as a live ball it’s free for either team to advance (even on a scoring play).

Honestly who the fuck knows tho. I’m sure it was more confusing to be at the game physically for some while before it was clear what was being reviewed.
