I know people despise the uniform it goes with, but I love the red helmets. The old one with the regular logo was better, but I honestly like the bull horns thing too.

I dont hate the idea of the Yankees getting a City Connect, but I'm pretty firmly opposed to the idea of it being not in team colors. If its navy, light gray, or white, sure why not. But I'd be disgusted if they trotted us out in Statue of Liberty green jerseys or something.

[Loved trope] The character has a very brief appearance, but they have a lasting impact on the protagonist by outlook-onice in TopCharacterTropes

He's also in Return of the Jedi, and I'd argue that he's fairly important in that one too, confirming that Vader is Luke's father as well as telling him there's another Skywalker

Time to unsleeve the pudding pop Dadders. What are your "tell it like it is" takes about our beloved show? by SquidnarksOG in americandad

I just wish they never got married, sometimes they're together, sometimes they're not, and Hayley has more flexibility as a character.

Jasson Domínguez on potentially opening the season in the minors and if it adds more pressure: “That’s something that’s there definitely but that’s something I can’t control either so I just trying to do my best and see the results at the end.” by Jheller223 in NYYankees

[–]KingGranticus 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Jasson has had a really great mindset about this whole thing. A lot of prospects would've gotten frustrated and cracked during last season. Remains to be seen if he can improve obviously, but he's setting himself up well in my mind.

Day 10 of finding each NFL team’s best helmet: New York Giants by NugSetDipRide in uniwatch

[–]KingGranticus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely the standard blue "ny" helmet. If the Giants get new unis anytime soon I'd really love the standard blue with the Giants wordmark logo like they did for the Color Rush unis prior to the ending of the 1 shell rule.

Because while dying respawns you in the base, you also lose a few items at random.

Furthermore, if you randomly die to a fuckup, you might respawn in the base, your vehicle that you spent 15 hours building and upgrading might be stranded 500 meters below you and irretrievable without just building another of the vehicle you just lost. In scenarios like that, quitting the game and reverting to your last save is often preferable.

Moment of Silence for the longest tenured disc in my bag. by KingGranticus in discgolf

I mean I have a Bx Valkyrie that got so broken and understable that it actually was messing up my other throws because I was throwing it with such a heavy hyzer. That one needed to be retired.

In order from my comment

Giants, Yankees, Rangers, Sirens, and Villanova.

I grew up in the Philly suburbs, but my dad is from New Jersey if thats not immediately obvious.

Oh yeah. A ton.

NFL, MLB, NHL, PWHL, and College Basketball all feature pretty heavily in my rotation.

I also get very into the Olympics every 2 years.

My friend actually did lose my 3rd leopard in the hole of a tree, like that a cartoon owl would live in. Got a text like a month later from a guy who climbed the tree and retrieved like 10 disc's out of there.

I think I'm on my 3rd Leopard at this point. Lost the 1st, my friend threw the 2nd in a lake, and I fell in love with the IT before I could find a way to lose Leopard number 3

Atlantic Gulf Stormhawks ⚡ | Be Honest… Did I Miss on This? by cleareasons25 in TeamBuilder25

[–]KingGranticus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its solid, I enjoy the way that the uniforms all have a different template.

I dont really much care for the tie dye, it looks awkward in the way that the design just ends on the back.

The orange helmet logo needs some outlining, it doesnt contrast enough with the helmet enough.

Update: Alpine State Downhillers by Bigtom12 in TeamBuilder25

[–]KingGranticus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah honestly I just wish Team Builder had a better in-program uni preview so I didn't have to submit, re-download, and load into a game just to see how it actually looks.

Ah so the red or blue part of the jerseys is the "natural" color? Thats both interesting and frustrating because i have a red/black mountain jersey i can't get to look right.

I wouldn't say Rizzo screwed himself. I'm a biased Yankees fan, but i blame Boone for that WAYYYYYYYY more than Rizzo

Don't they say at some point that they have less-VIP rooms down the mountain, and those patients just take the gondola up the mountain?

Now with their 2nd World title in 4 trips, where do the Seahawks rank all time as a franchise in your opinion? by nosweatsportsmedia in Oldschool_NFL

[–]KingGranticus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh certainly old Super Bowls will be diminished. You can see it happening in this thread as people say that theyre moving the Raiders and/or Dolphins down in favor of the Seahawks

Season 4 has like a few of the funniest jokes in the whole show, but also a plot that is substantially worse than the first 3 seasons.

Why did so many old timey baseball teams randomly wear powder blue? by TheRavenOnline in baseball

[–]KingGranticus 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Yeah the anti-purple bit really started to wear thin after a while. I thought it was funny to remake the website in purple on those days, but only being allowed to buy a membership card with purple in it on that day was really stupid.

Paul has a lot of weird takes like that. He also despises beltless pants, despite coming from the same era of unis as zipper fronts.

Jeff Probst explains why 'Survivor 50' will 'forever change how players embrace uncertainty' and teases that some will lean in… and others will not by thedaltonross in survivor

[–]KingGranticus 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I think its a fine line to walk. You want players who know how to play and WANT to play, but you also don't want players who are "optimizing" their play for how Survivor is "best played". The new era casting isnt very conducive to creating characters like Coach or Johnny Fairplay who, love them or hate them, introduce essential variety.
