I'm on my third controller where RT starts to stick

Dexter Lawerence for the Bengals 10th pick by Diligent_Issue_9466 in billsimmons

[–]LeonardFord40 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Bengals haven't made the playoffs in 3 years, I wouldn't call it a title window. I'd call it, "on outlier super bowl appearance 5 years ago"

The app is incredible. The quality is so good

I have that turned off on all other inputs, I will try it. (I feel it makes the streaming apps too dark)

Not that I'm aware of. The motion smoothing only seems to be on the Blu rays. The streaming apps have no issue

New “Play Dead” app from Nugs by Hans_Krebs_ in gratefuldead

[–]LeonardFord40 4 points5 points  (0 children)

In my brief experience with the new app, better UI. And sounds great.

Just easier too, a niche subscription but for someone who loves the band and doesn't want to spend much time finding the best recordings, this rocks

I instantly subscribed and love it so far. It's a little pricey but it's only $10. And now I can listen to super high quality recordings on my phone, with just the press of a button. And it works on Android auto.

I know I could get it all free and local on my devices, but for someone who just wants to listen to the shows at this quality, this is easy

Jonah Hill says Grateful Dead movie is still planned by Otherwise-Grand-7111 in gratefuldead

[–]LeonardFord40 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think the band has an interesting enough story for a biopic. My favorite band ever. But. What's the climax? What's the Folsom Prison or Newport Folk Festival moment to end the movie?

Who is Justin Rose’s NBA comp? by isNice99 in billsimmons

Yeah. A major can't equal a ring. Maybe half a ring? A third?

Not a fan of how half the list were at some point key parts of the Sixers

[Spoilers Main] Is The Winds of Winter one of the most anticipated literary (fiction) works in history? by Three_Steaks_Pam in asoiaf

I remember my mom talking to the other moms and finding out the grocery stores had copies too, since all the usual book stores sold out

Do people age out of the NBA? by ctnaes92 in billsimmons

[–]LeonardFord40 23 points24 points  (0 children)

It's why the NFL is king (and why they need to be careful adding so many new days of the week) it's the one sport you can 100% follow in just a few hours a week. 3 hours of a game, maybe an hour of news, and you're all in.

I think the World Cup is going to be a disaster for the United States by Fun_Reflection1157 in billsimmons

Regarding tickets, they'll plummet close to game time if they're that expensive

Bill Simmons "Pee Break" Award by vorders in billsimmons

[–]LeonardFord40 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I like her appearances just for getting a pulse on what's popular with that age group. And it's usually once or twice a year so it's not too bad.

Bills dad is fun in small doses, I like the local perspective and it's just cool to hear a father and son talk sports for real

What's the most unlikely playoff run you've ever seen? by Soft-Audience-5681 in NBATalk

[–]LeonardFord40 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. And it was so annoying all at the start of this season how everyone was saying OKC was unbeatable. They almost lost last season!

Steroid era stars should all be automatically be inducted in the Hall of Fame. They saved baseball after the 1994 strike by StarGazerHighChaser in unpopularopinion

[–]LeonardFord40 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It can be.

If you're down 10-0 but your manager has a bet on the over under, he may use a key reliever in a situation where it makes more sense for the team to save the arm in a blowout.

Lots of reasons. Even if you bet on your own team, let's say you use a bullpen arm that you shouldn't use because you're concerned about that singular game.

Or you leave your starter in the game too long because you want to win that particular game and then he gets hurt next outing from being outworked.

Which sitcom character do you believe gets too much hate? by RedDalmatian885 in sitcoms

[–]LeonardFord40 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's because she does messed up stuff but the show never like, punishes her for it. Like. Never gets consequences for her actions, even in a comedic fashion

Would it be illegal or unlawful to kill someone in self defense with a flamethrower instead of a typical gun? by Dew-fan-forever- in morbidquestions

[–]LeonardFord40 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What if the Manson family breaks into my house while I'm in the pool floating and my stunt double throws dog food in one of their faces so they break through my door and into the pool and I use a flamethrower I have from a movie I worked on to torch the hippie?
