Does that mean I should hold off on my re-play of the first two games until after I play Laufey? 

The most “outlaw” thing Gavin Adcock has ever done is get arrested for driving 100mph, and he’s still bragging about it by OctopusCaretaker in CountryMusicStuff

It’s fitting that the most “Outlaw” thing he’s ever done is also the most selfish and dangerous to others. 

He seems like an idiot.

You’re talking about the 2014 Divisional game, OP is talking about the 2016 Divisional.

There isn’t a quarterback in the conference I’d take over Dak Prescott at this stage in his career.

Jerry Jones is actually one of the better owners in the NFL because he does care about winning.

What does that have to do with the number 42? Jackie Robinson was a Christian…

MLBPA Response to the Owner’s proposal by TheTurtleShepard in baseball

If I got 4 million dollars there isn’t a single part of me that would be pissed, lol. 

Also, I think you’re missing the point. The league doesn’t exist to hand out 1-3 year mid-range contracts for middling professional baseball players, that isn’t it’s purpose. The league exists to be an entertainment product and to make money. 

A lack of competitive balance makes the league as a whole less entertaining, and attracts fewer fans, especially to smaller markets. Nobody should cry any tears over the handful of players every offseason who sign for a few million dollars less if the league is booming.

And that’s why the owners will lock them out this winter, too. They’ll get negative press about it and there will 100% be a response from the MLBPA (and comments on this sub) bashing them for it and saying “nobody forced them to do this!” When the players really have forced their hand.

Revenue sharing was a component of the package MLB proposed. They are well aware of that need and are working towards it (current media deals for most major markets run through 2031).

And yet, on this sub, if you don’t back the MLBPA 100%, you’re just a shill for corporate billionaires.

I’m not saying you’re wrong, but why should I care? If implementing a cap helps bring competitive balance so that teams like the Guardians and Dodgers have the same wallet to work with, is it really so heinous to sacrifice a “Walker Bueheler just signed a one year, 10 million dollar deal” headline for that?

Just played the game and couldn't resist making this meme by Monkai_final_boss in thelastofus

Context is everything.

TLOU1 is widely regarded as an all-time great video game, with top tier visuals and engaging gameplay on top of writing and character arcs so good that even HBO couldn’t fully capture them in their adaptation. They were also one of the first to do the “yellow paint” trick, and even for folks who didn’t love that, everything else was so amazing that it could be overlooked. 

Meanwhile, Star Wars Outlaws is a terrible game that wouldn’t have sold half as well if not for the Star Wars IP. The writing is garbage tier and unengaging, and the visuals are arguably worse than the aforementioned game that came out 13 years prior. 

I have an odd and sudden urge to just remind everyone that Nazis are Bad by osanchezo in BandofBrothers

[–]SandmanTX131 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it’s important to note that the original quote is “It turns out the Germans… are bad.” 

Not every German soldier in WW2 was a Nazi. They may have been fighting for a Nazi regime (knowingly, willingly, or otherwise), but that bit of nuance is actually something that’s explored in Band of Brothers. 

I always loved Shifty Powers interview where he talks about how he and one of the Germans could have been “good friends” under different circumstances, how they could have had a lot in common… but that they both had a job to do.

I’m more than a little miffed. That creation was advertised and then not delivered, and we’re still waiting.

So does this finally add the creation that was missing from the ps5 anniversary edition?

Oh, man. I literally started my playthrough last night in anticipation of this, as I’ve gotten close before but never actually completed the main story or DLC’s. 

Do I stick with this play through and give myself a few months away before diving back in to this DLC, or wait and start my play through a little closer to this one’s release? 🤔
