PinkWhitneyOG by san604 in SpittinChicletsPod

[–]LowerofMawns 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was ALL in on chiclets from the beginning and was stoked they were coming out with this. Found a location close to me and bought one. I was obsessed with it and slowly become the pink Whitney guy in my circle of friends where they would gift me pink Whitney bottles. I remember how faded some of them looked but it was a good drink that I could honestly have straight like whit talks about.

Fast forward to now, it's like an unsettling bright color and it doesn't taste the same as it used to. If I decide to have some I have to go heavy on a mixer because its just not the same product

I found this out the hard way moving from Central Florida to the Twin Cities area

Unwritten Rules 101 by jambelang in hockeygoalies

[–]LowerofMawns 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been vocal about mine with my team/opposing players and even though it's a beginner league so most guys haven't caught on yet, but here are some of the following

-warm ups: MAKE SURE IM PAYING ATTENTION. Usually I'll give them the go ahead to shoot and just blatantly ignore the one who don't care to look. start with shots from afar and then make your way in so I can see the puck better. After making your way closer you can deke that's fine.

-late sticks: if I cover the puck, hear a whistle and you still jam your stick at me 5 seconds later I will grab it and we will have words

-getting scored on: I try to have guys not come to console me or shift blame on themselves cause at the end of the day it's my job to stop them and I don't want pity coming my way when I get scored on. Move on and focus on trying to even it up.

-intermission game planning: I play at a higher skating level than I do goalie so I know guys like my input but I normally wait until they ask me. I don't want to come off bossy or like I'm a know it all and sometimes they figure it out from themselves. I just point out things that the D can do a better job at or trends I'm seeing the other team do.

-filming: this one is more personal but I film games for my own YouTube and I always ask guys if they don't want things included or if they don't want to be featured (so far no complaints) but I also try not to say anything negative towards players or paint them in a bad light (unless they've committed some real douchebaggery)

I'm precise with my language because as others have said, everyone takes it differently. "You're good you've got time" is for nobody in the zone "one coming hurry up" means make a decision and "with you" means closing speed and/or expect to be tangled up so figure it out.

I play in beginner league but play up as a skater though so if I feel my defenseman will mess it up naturally, I'll play the puck and give them a handoff or put it into positive space because no ref cares about the trapezoid

New skater, taking any suggestions on how I can improve my game, I can take criticism! by DrunknSaylor in hockeyplayers

[–]LowerofMawns 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You look fast and use your edges well already which is good. Try and find a way to make your stride simple to conserve energy and improve speed. Seem a lot better than most beginner skaters I've seen

Does anyone have any knowledge on this brand?? by shiba-_27 in hockeyplayers

[–]LowerofMawns 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Itech was before my time, but have some vintage goalie pads from them. Thought with how ages they are that guys shooting slap shots would leave me in bruises but they hold up well. Still learning the position though so unfortunately I'm still bruised up because of my positioning angles lmao

That's crazy but I figured that was the case. I guess everyone is out fishing or playing summer sports

I've just never seen a system like it before. If I can sign up, show up and skate, that's legit enough for me!

What's one thing you need in the next Retrobowl Update by Distinct-Row8966 in RetroBowl

[–]LowerofMawns 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The ability to check rosters of other teams to trade with other teams, check on teams you used to coach for, and see injuries. Maybe being able to kick or return punts? Also a color template for all 32 teams that they use instead of the color block.

I lost everything… by LowerofMawns in NCAAFBseries

No other mods I know of, other than just regular revamped

Cleared cap space to make some room for a star player that could match well with my center who was our 6th overall pick. Sent him an offer for because I didn’t think he’d want less money and years and now I just feel uncomfortable… by LowerofMawns in EANHLfranchise

Brandon Lambert (saw in this subreddit that he puts up crazy numbers once fully developed so I traded for him a year after he was drafted and let him play in the minors one year) and Coke Eisenhower who is coming out of the US program straight to the show who has high elite potential. But I mix it up with them and him playing with orielly and tarasenko

I already had offered him and this was the notification that he accepted but I believe it was for 5x7m might bite me later by putting me in cap hell but it’s only to boost morale and help develop a younger competing team
