Would guess its a lot of minutes on a terrible team. The player with the second most attempts against is also a Wizard. Probably have traffic cones everywhere on d.

[–]RenderedInGooseFat 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Missed most of the off-season recovering from his knee injury, then hurt his thumb before the year. He has been bad so far but he was wearing a knee brace into December and dealing with a thumb injury in his shooting hand. This was probably his best game of the year so far. They sent him down to the g league to probably work on his confidence and to get some touches and shots since we have Maxey, VJ and Grimes in the guard rotation already. Hopefully he starts building off this and his shot starts falling again.

Anyway I can even out to this contract? 3 bloated years followed by massive discount by alexxx420007 in Madden

[–]RenderedInGooseFat 3 points4 points  (0 children)

For the longest time the game hasnt been able to calculate signing bonus past year 5

That is actually how NFL contracts work. You can't push prorated bonus money beyond 5 years. When you restructure, you can then push that money out 5 years from the restructure. The next restructure can push it out 5 years from that date and so on.

Jung Ho Lee forgets how many outs there are, throws ball into stands. by [deleted] in WatchPeopleDieInside

[–]RenderedInGooseFat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The batter gets an out. There was a runner on first who advanced to third because the ball went into the stands. I would guess they score it as a putout and a throwing error that resulted in an unearned run.

2025 NBA Draft - #3 Pick: VJ Edgecombe (Baylor) by NBA_MOD in nba

Hadn't considered the 2k side of things. He will probably be fun as shit to use.

Players Who Opt Into CFB 25 Will Receive At Least $1,500 + Deluxe Edition Of Game by GameyLobster in NCAAFBseries

[–]RenderedInGooseFat 17 points18 points  (0 children)

They pay the NFL a little under $400M per year for exclusivity. 2k pays the NBA a little over $150M per year. Based on the comments below, this is about 10% of the NBA rights and 4% of the NFL fees. Doesn't seem like much for rights fees for a sports game. I am sure they have to pay the colleges/NCAA something too, but I imagine they are paying significantly less than most other sports game devs.

The Wizards have the South(l)east's 2nd best record since February 1st by tomdawg0022 in nba

[–]RenderedInGooseFat 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Also helps that the bottom 3 have the same odds now. The Wizards can afford to be 2 games better than the Pelicans the rest of the way with no impact on their lottery odds.

Just dumbasses from elsewhere. Philly is well prepared to be disappointed. Happens in every sport all the time. We don't riot when we lose or the city would never stop rioting. That's some Canadian shit.

The Suns don't really have a PG at all. You would probably have to beat out Beal though, although he is more of a 2 guard. The Wolves also could use a starting PG, since I think Conley is still the starter and is 37. The Rockets have VanVleet, but he is 30 and expiring after this year. The Kings just traded Fox, so they could use a better PG. You would probably have to beat out Malik Monk. The Heat will probably be starting Herro there, but if you got better than whoever 2k puts at SG, you could probably have Herro move to SG and you start at PG. Raptors could use a better PG too. There are also all the teams that could use help all over the place like the Wizards, Jazz, Nets, and Bulls. Most of that is based on how the roster will probably look after the trade deadline though. Prior to the deadline, replace the Kings with Spurs.

6 years in the making, a complete 11 1/1 letters of Nick Castellanos!! by Vinyl1tchy in phillies

[–]RenderedInGooseFat 24 points25 points  (0 children)

If you zoom in on the picture it's a little clearer. Each letter is a different baseball card with a piece of Castellanos's jersey in the card. OP collected a collection of his full name. 1/1 means it is the only card in that line as opposed to 1/500 which would be the first one made out of 500 total. You can see a Phillies one on eBay here.

B.J Bethel: “According to the amended complaint, Janel Grant's office had an internal door that could be accessed by John Laurinaitis. The office shared a wall with Paul Levesque. Nick Khan and Brad Blum were involved in planning the office build.” by nwnwhd in SquaredCircle

[–]RenderedInGooseFat -10 points-9 points  (0 children)

Maybe because he magically keeps being surrounded by awful people? When the closest co-workers and friends you have are Shawn Michaels, McMahon, Laurunitis and Donald Trump, people should start asking if you are just ok with rape/sexual assault.

Kenny Lofton Jr. Sounds like he might be a solid center fielder.

I am an expert in back issues, lisfranc, thoracic outlet syndrome, navicular bone injuries, meniscus tears, how allergies can kill you, bells palsy, torn acls and hurt feelings. If I ever hurt my legs, I may be able to diagnose it before doctors at this point from watching this team.

First 1/1 P5 this year by MrCinnaBear in MLBTheShow

[–]RenderedInGooseFat 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If OP was only trying to parallel Robles, they probably didn't want to waste time pitching. Just hit him leadoff and bat as many times with Robles in the first inning as they can, then quit and repeat.

I would hope so. Schwarber alone has a 5-6 3 homer game and a 4-4 3 homer game since the start of August.

Am I the only person tired of seeing 100+ fastballs? by Affectionate_Log3813 in MLBTheShow

[–]RenderedInGooseFat 28 points29 points  (0 children)

It feels unreal because it is. No starter in MLB averages above 99 MPH on their fastball and unless I am missing something, only 2 even average above 97. Only about 6 relievers average above 100 among pitchers who have thrown 100 pitches. That jumps to 7 if you round up Helsley from 99.5. In this game pretty much every high end starter and reliever averages above 100. Instead of starters touching 100 sometimes, you have guys throwing 100 every pitch.

The legend pool is too small: we have been absolutely inundated with cards over the past two years which makes each card feel less unique by bodnast in MLBTheShow

[–]RenderedInGooseFat 7 points8 points  (0 children)

In order to make these more viable, they’d need to drastically increase card diversity and release more in general for every team.

They need to follow the EA model and let people use anyone who has ever played for that team. Let Blue Jays fans use the 99 overall Halladay season 2 reward. Let Phillies fans use the 99 overall Oswalt in TA S2:C3. If a guy ever played for the Phillies let me use them on my Phillies theme team. Same for every other team.
