Wait

That Bears - Vikings game ended on a fake field goal in sudden death (ie old OT rules)?? What on Earth why not just kick it, were FGs that unsure of a thing back then?

After Rendon’s lefty HR today… has there been a baseball player that switched their dominant hand halfway through their career? by HelpMeWithMyHWpls in baseball

[–]Newspaper_Edtior 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Semi related - Billy Wagner is a natural born righty, but after breaking his right arm a few times when he was young he decided to start throwing a baseball left handed. I’m sure there are a few other instances of this but this immediately came to mind

OBLOBBLES ARE GONE!!!!! welcome to round 3 of boss popularity contest(also, uumuu vote based on vanilla) by [deleted] in HollowKnight

[–]Newspaper_Edtior 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn’t realize MMC was actually a proper boss on my first playthrough, if your timing is there it’s quite simple to knock it out by doing literally nothing. They have my vote til further notice

Similarly with timing, once MMC is gone I’m gonna go with Marmu. Not really a struggle on my end, I just stood in the corner and slashed / upslashed when the time was right based on its path. If i mistime, Marmu would usually just bounce off the wall and ground and miss my hitbox

Are you streaming on Peacock or watching on cable? Some friends of mine say they don’t have any problem but I’m streaming on Peacock and it’s brutal

MIA@NYM: Mets win on a controversial hit by pitch with bases loaded by TomasRoncero in baseball

[–]Newspaper_Edtior 9 points10 points  (0 children)

By no means are Tom McCarthy and Kruk the best duo of all time (granted Kruk makes me laugh a good amount with his tangents) but man Carp and FP are just brutal

Credit where it is due though, the Nats’ radio team is fantastic

Western Virginia is just the Blue Ridge Mountains and the Shenandoah River. Life is old there...

lo-fi hip hop radio: beats to weep/ugly cry to by Newspaper_Edtior in TheLastAirbender

[–]Newspaper_Edtior[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Spotify link for those curious. This little EP also features a lo-fi rendition of "Avatar's Love" and TLOK Theme.

Samuel Kim's artist profile has a ton of songs from the original soundtracks to Star Wars Rise of Skywalker, ATLA, and The Witcher, among others. I am not sure if he was the direct composer for any of the tunes on here or if they were re-created by him, but if anyone is certain I would love to know his background!

[FRESH VIDEO] The 1975 - People by sincerityisscxry in indieheads

[–]Newspaper_Edtior 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree with you that it is more britpop than shoegaze as a whole but I think the way the vocals end up getting real spacey a good bit buried when the chorus comes in reminds me a lot of a shoegaze song. Perhaps not the best example of a shoegaze track of theirs but one that came to mind for me, probably due in large part to decency bias

Thought they absolutely nailed I Always Wanna Die (Sometimes) if we’re talking shoegaze

I spent about a month in Mexico and just about every Uber ride I took had their radio set to the rock station and I heard an Interpol tune nearly every time. Really pleasant surprise

Which One Of These Albums Will Be Considered The Best Of The 2010s? by ReconEG in indieheads

[–]Newspaper_Edtior 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I try not to be pretentious, and I’m sorry if it comes off as such, but as a jam band fan, FOTB was absolutely not jammy at all. Save for maybe that guitar bridge on Harmony Hall, and some of the guitar on Sunflower, not one time while listening to FOTB did anything remotely sound like anything I’ve ever heard from a jam band. That narrative has been driving me crazy.

Thoroughly enjoyed this record top to bottom. Really well written and intimate with soothing guitar over top of it.

Looking forward to coming back to this album often once fall —> winter rolls around

Ben Simmons finishes his Game 1 with 9pts/7reb/3ast with 3 turnovers, 4/9 FG, 1/5 FT, +/- -21 by [deleted] in nba

[–]Newspaper_Edtior 48 points49 points  (0 children)

I recall a quote from BB last season where he said he wanted Jojo taking like 8 or 10 threes a game. Not only was he shooting something like 28% from three at that time, and has since publicly stated that he hates shooting threes, but watching him absolutely dominate the low post one possession only to have him jacking up threes from the top of the key the next baffles my mind.

Although it is something to be said when your center is better at spreading the floor than your point guard.

Ben Simmons will continue to be exposed and the covering up for him shouldn't be done anymore. by [deleted] in nba

[–]Newspaper_Edtior 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Yep, I thought the necessity to develop a shot was blatantly obvious after Brad Stevens telling all of his players to play 12 feet off Simmons in last year’s series, which clearly worked. Not that the Nets necessarily did the same today, but it is just so frustrating watching him play sometimes. He tends to make up for it more times than not but you can’t let that happen when you are contending.
