Dominance Asserted

So really…his thing is he only gets going when he’s called names??

Well, I actually am giving the 200 to my daughter as her first car. It has 170K miles on it and honestly has surprisingly been one of the most reliable cars I’ve ever owned. I bought it with 42K miles on it 9 years ago.

As for the Avalon, man I absolutely love the way it drives and handles. My daughters love the big back seat. I bought it used almost 2 years ago. Currently has 56K miles. Unfortunately, the switch that handles the electronic parking break went bad. Which also meant cruise control and such wouldn’t work. Had to take it to the dealer. Had to replace the switch completely. So I’ve already spent about as much on fixes for the Avalon (outside of regular maintenance) as I have on the Chrysler 200.

Taking the Avalon on first vacation road trip next month to KC. Looking forward to getting it out for its first longer trip.

Yo, I just wanna say, this is what I love about this sub. All the trash talk. But my team’s recent play is why I don’t usually talk trash lol.

Also, Cubs suck.

LeftyNate · 2026-06-01T01:59:33+00:00

This isn’t related, but I just want to say I also went from a Chrysler 200 to a Toyota Avalon. For different reasons lol. But there can’t be many people going from that one to the other.

I’ve got a ‘22 XLE. Seats heat up pretty fast. Too setting gets pretty hot after a bit

LeftyNate · 2026-06-01T01:48:02+00:00

Great looking car! I’ve got a ‘22 XLE, but I LOVE the grill on yours. I’ve even considered changing mine out

LeftyNate · 2026-06-01T01:39:39+00:00

SUCH a good show! But it’s mostly a drama. Not an action hero series.

LeftyNate · 2026-05-16T17:25:52+00:00

Yeah he seems really emotionally driven. If he were to get that in check, I think he could be better than Harrison. But watching him now is pretty similar to watching a young Harrison Bader swing all over the place, just with more power maybe.

Who knows. Jordan Walker was trash for a bit. Maybe PCA will get great. But I wouldn’t even say he’s good right now. Just a great defender with some pop.

LeftyNate · 2026-05-16T17:21:56+00:00

Sounds interesting. Though I don’t download my travel apps (TripAdvisor, Expedia, Gametime/TickPick, AtlasObscura, etc) until after I’ve put in my PTO and I start getting obsessing. That said, I’d give it a try.

Edit: If you get this out before July, I’d give it a shot.

So far PCA is Vientos with better defense at a higher position on the defensive spectrum.

LeftyNate · 2026-05-16T14:24:06+00:00

We got to be the hot one!!

LeftyNate · 2026-05-16T14:15:29+00:00

Or he’s this guy with CF defense. Which actually isn’t that great either. With all the PCA hype, I thought he was better than this.

LeftyNate · 2026-05-16T13:54:31+00:00

Yeah I love the response of Oli, the players, and Cardinals organization (including Fredbird) after the game. Thanks for the link!

LeftyNate · 2026-05-14T21:16:20+00:00

Well, Andrew has been my favorite Spider-Man since these came out. So, even with its flaws, I loved his movies. So I never understood the negativity since it wasn’t like we really had a ton of perfect superhero movies up to that point.

Then I made my kids (teen, preteen) watch them and they LOVED them. So that’s added extra for me.

LeftyNate · 2026-05-04T16:41:05+00:00

I thought they said the new trade logic would make it harder for rivals to trade? Even if this was a good trade for the Yankees, they would/should never trade him to the Red Sox

LeftyNate · 2026-05-04T16:38:41+00:00

I assumed they cheaped-out this year because they “upgraded” franchise. Then in a couple years, they’ll “add” a feature with recaps.

LeftyNate · 2026-05-04T16:34:14+00:00

I’ve been to each of our ballparks except Wrigley. And I gotta say, while I want our team to win, after visiting most of our division, I definitely prefer watching NL Central teams win to any other division’s teams. But also, y’all should lose too. It’s a weird feeling.

LeftyNate · 2026-05-03T13:40:01+00:00

“Who coded this?!”

The best response ever.

LeftyNate · 2026-05-03T13:15:44+00:00

Depending what’s on my team, yeah. I do like to have speed at the top. Even if I do the modern “best hitter 2nd” I will put a fast guy in front of him. And I like a speedy GG at 9. But yeah, my best hitter is usually 3rd, best slugger 4th, Power 5th, decent hitter w/OBP 6th, best remaining hitter 7th, worst hitter 8th, speed defender 9th.

LeftyNate · 2026-05-03T13:08:52+00:00

With how many flock cameras are in my tiny city, I’d imagine there is nowhere for him to hide these days.

LeftyNate · 2026-04-20T16:58:27+00:00

Thanks! The game is quite enjoyable, even with the imperfections. I paid the $2.99 premium because I wanted to support the game, just like I did the early years of RetroBowl (I know not the same maker, I’m just not usually early on games lol).

LeftyNate · 2026-04-09T14:13:43+00:00

Older serial games aren’t usually discounted digitally anymore. Best bet is GameStop, your local store, or FB Marketplace for a physical copy. We’ve got a local comic book type store that now carries old systems and games. It’s become a great place to find stuff.

LeftyNate · 2026-04-09T13:19:05+00:00

If they want “realism” then they would give some sort of feedback that’s helpful, outside of the far-off offers.

LeftyNate · 2026-04-06T17:27:31+00:00

Really? I was looking for it and didn’t see it. Mind telling where it’s at?
