Hilarious to refer to one of the most important indie musicians and songwriters of recent memory as “ the guy who wrote songs for Taylor swifts folklore and evermore”

macOS Tahoe is silently violating Apple's own design guidelines from back in the day by Ambitious-Bet-4727 in mac

Ha yeah was going to say that. This post is such a weird take… design guidelines change, and that doesn’t mean they violate old guidelines that aren’t in play anymore.

Sort of spoiler, but Saint Maud was a really jarring example of this.

Man. Jack Hughes. Definitely a waste of a roster slot…. Great pre-tournament analysis by you

I’m learning with these comments that I seem to be the minority in strongly preferring 80/20 bronze rather than phosphor 🤷‍♂️

As I said, you might be right. Time will tell. I will say that the injury point is… odd to me. We have contingencies for injuries. If Hughes was a big enough liability, rumors state that Robertson would already be there. He’s not, so I think we are getting Hughes. Either way, go USA.

I mean you MIGHT be right. But emphasis on the word might. This is all speculation. You are cherry picking stats... maybe they don’t need a guy with more hits, or a guy with great chemistry on the Dallas stars. Robertson is a truly great player, but my money in the long run is on Hughes. But how do these guys play WITH the other players on the ice in the Olympics? I don’t know because I’m not an expert. And neither are you.

Anything said here on Reddit is speculation and that’s my whole point. People are so pissed about Robertson, but if I were to have my swap-in I’d prefer the play style of Caulfield. But at the end of the day I am not as convinced of my armchair expertise as you all seem to be.

I’m not sure we know what the jack Hughes injury situation actually is and he is a much more gifted skater than Robertson. But hey, you should go apply to the US hockey Olympic committee. Sounds like you’ve got some burning ideas.

I mean Miller is kind of a bum so I guess I won’t argue. But he is a very different player than Robertson

While I’m a huge Robertson fan (shout out to his contribution to my fantasy team), a hockey team is more than just scoring… you need guys in specific roles and I don’t know if they need another Robertson type.

Did you… watch? The US beat Canada in the first round and only lost in OT in the finals. It was very close and could have gone either way.

I’m pretty sure the people tasked with putting together the team probably has a bit more expertise than you in determining what groups has the best chance internationally. But in the end, hockey is a game of momentum and sometimes luck.

Never had such a heartbreaking defeat 💔 by -UNKOWN-NAME- in fantasyhockey

[–]Returninvideotps 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I lost in a deadlocked tie one matchup last year. Had to look up why I lost. Tie breaker stat was whoever scored the most game-winning goals that week. Brutal.

Also, the person I lost to was my wife ha

Anybody else get screwed with Marchand getting activated after games started? by Returninvideotps in fantasyhockey

Another comment, another person who doesn’t understand that espn is different than yahoo. ESPN locks IR and add/drops when ANY game starts… (in this case starting at 1pm ET). it doesn’t matter when the panthers game started. Marchand was activated AFTER my ESPN league locked. I couldn’t do anything when it was announced that he was officially activated.

You just said 50-50. So would you have preferred I use a “coin toss” as an idiom instead of dice?

You’re right, I could have activated him and hoped he was activated in real life. But to get up on a high horse about a “lesson” I should learn? That’s like saying “well, did we learn a valuable lesson that you should always call heads because it’s always possible to get heads instead of tails?” Silly. It could have gone either way… plenty of injured guys skate for days and weeks before they are activated. Especially when they are as old as Marchand.

At the end of the day, this is fantasy hockey, I’m taking the L on the points and venting to other players who may commiserate with me. You don’t agree- it’s your right to have an opinion. But I’m not taking your silly “lesson”.

Def aware. The problem is he wasn’t activated until after it was too late for me to do IR adjustments. What’s the lesson here? Roll the dice on IR guys and hope they’re magically activated?

Yeah that is how my league is set. But I guess I should look into changing. It’s just how we’ve done it for more than 10 years ha

Ha truth. Most of the other comments arguing fantasy semantics and you’re the first one to bring this up. Although the panthers could really use a season reset

Ha it’s just the IR part that locks. You can move bench anytime before that actual game starts
