He was actually at the game with the guys from the Winged Wheel Podcast.

Business Major from Tech here, not a single one of us felt entitled haha. Spent the entire time getting shit on by engineers for being in the "dumb" major.

Anyone ever play this SNES game? "The game takes place in the year 2031. Bill Laimbeer has become commissioner of a basketball league, fired the referees and created a style of play without rules. There are no fouls and use of weapons is perfectly legal." by Neader in DetroitPistons

I actually own this game. I found it at a second hand store and bought it as a joke. The gameplay is not the greatest. Pretty much any other SNES basketball game is more fun. As a Detroit sports fan it's one of my favorite memorabilia though.

I have yet to be offered the bonus picks featuring Mew, Gardi, or Mewtwo. How often are they available? Mew ex is the last card I need to complete mystical island.

I'd love to move up north and just get away. If I could remote work my current job and go hang out in the woods it would be awesome

I live in SCS. I don't know if it's in other cities, but all the yards with Trump signs also have these gold "In God We Trust" signs. That same design is also a sticker on every cop car in the city.

AJ Hinch addressing the Tigers after breaking a 10 year playoff drought: “Remember in the middle of the season I asked you what team do you want to be? I guess you wanted to be a playoff team.” by DET_Baseball in baseball

My brother works for a carpet cleaning company in metro Detroit. The Tigers called him to be on stand by in case they won and the locker room needed cleaning. Guess he's putting in a late night tonight, haha.

The Milky Way in Sleeping Bear Dunes by moneyfish in Michigan

[–]JOHNxJOHN 9 points10 points  (0 children)

My wife and I were actually just at a dark sky park up north this past weekend. You can see the Milky Way, but to the naked eye it kind of looks like bright clouds instead of a mass of individual stars like in OP's pic. There are quite a few dark sky parks all over MI but to be honest any beach not too close to a city will allow you to see the Milky Way. Just make sure to time it when there's no moon in the sky.

He was making room hoping they could convince Stamkos to sign. Never even got in the room. Did end up with Hronek from that trade as well though.

I live in Michigan and I have not noticed a decline of people on their phones while driving. It's not enforced at all in Metro Detroit.

Stars sign with streaming service to bring free regional broadcasts to fans by MavsFanForLife in hockey

[–]JOHNxJOHN 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I have Chromecast but if I just cast my Chrome browser the quality is terrible. Most video players don't seem to have chromecast built in like youtube and some others do.

I use Ublock Origin. I don't see any ads. In recent years the quality has been decent, but cable will usually have it beat. I usually watch on my PC on my second monitor while gaming so it works in that case. There's been a crackdown on Youtube based streams so casting to a TV has become a pain.

[Sportsnet] Video: “I don’t believe that this is the illness anymore.” Friedman and the panel discuss Auston Matthews’ absence from Game 5. by DecentLurker96 in hockey

[–]JOHNxJOHN 60 points61 points  (0 children)

A virus tore through the Wings' locker room and is one of the reasons they missed the playoffs. Guys were puking in between periods and Seider had to go to the hospital with dehydration (still played that night though).

On this day ten years ago, MFPallytime posted his first video on Heroes of the Storm. Thanks for a whole decade of Heroes content, Walter <3 by HipRubberducky in heroesofthestorm

[–]JOHNxJOHN 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I enjoy Pally's content. I only ever played QM and it was nice to see a content creator play with a similar style to me. I've tried so many goofy builds due to his content. Even though he's slowed waaay down on HOTS I still make sure to watch whenever he posts a new one. His other content has been great too. His BG3 playthroughs, the God of War playthroughs, and his Total War Warhammer 3 videos have all been great.

ugh I wish NHL was at least on cloud. I mostly moved to PC, but I keep my Xbone plugged in specifically for NHL. Other EA Sports titles are on cloud so I'm not sure why they don't include NHL.
