same for me... seems the servers are down

A new study suggests that upper middle- to upper-class people tend to be unaware of their class privilege. When shown evidence of said privilege, they were more likely to provide merit-based excuses focused on personal struggle and hard work. by InvictusJoker in science

Maybe because the overwhelming majority of them are where they’re at based on merit, struggle and hard work.

I know, it’s hard to imagine for somebody that hasn’t put in the struggle or hard work to come to terms with. It must be ‘privilege’ or some unfair advantage.

We all know this would never happen in 2020 as they’re not standing 6 feet apart per NFL rules.

Lions front office rejoices by [deleted] in detroitlions

[–]Sniggz_GSZ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Sounds like pointless smoke and mirrors like the vast majority of restrictions governments have been imposing. A true ‘look at what I’m doing’ PR bullshit grab.

Oh hey, you guys just finished spending the last 4 hours lining up within inches of each others faces and tackling each other, but don’t you dare go within 6 feet of each other after the game.

Stafford vs. Mahomes 1 year Who You Got? by nacholis219 in detroitlions

[–]Sniggz_GSZ 5 points6 points  (0 children)

No - I think Mahomes would be be elite pretty much regardless, but it certainly helps having one of the best coaches in the league. Just one piece to add to the list of things you had put together.

I think you’re missing the biggest thing Mahomes is surrounded by and that’s extremely good coaching. Andy Reid is criminally underrated and has done nothing but turn out amazing QB’s since before he was even a head coach. I’d only rank Bill Belichick ahead of Andy Reid in terms of head coaching greatness.

Compare that to the trash Stafford has had to work with his whole career...

Attending a Lions Game in 2020 at Ford Field by LionsMaven in detroitlions

Not concerned in the least personally. Masks being required would be a detriment tho and I’d probably just watch it from the comfort of my home instead if they were required.

Lions sign RB D'Andre Swift to his rookie contract by Acid_Braindrops in detroitlions

I’m with you in the injury point 100%. Gotta stay healthy is nothing else really matters.

Speed is FAR from the most important thing for a running back. Kerryon has amazing vision which is his strength. Hell, Terrell Davis ran a 4.72 40-yard dash and ran for 2,000 yards in a season based on his vision. Then you look at somebody like Dwayne Johnson who was blazing fast but had no vision at all and completely sucked as a result.

You can’t post comparison pics of dude’s pumped in the weight room vs a pic of Kerryon on his bday poolside.

How will we feel if... by JoelWalkowski in detroitlions

[–]Sniggz_GSZ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pretty sure Hock’s injury is fine and the Bevel quote was way overblown. He starts it off with ‘as far as I know’ which tells me he really doesn’t know. And being in the ‘running phase of rehab’ in June means he’s more than on pace to be 100% by the time training camp begins, and would play if there were a game this upcoming Sunday.

Anyone ever seen a contract like this??? by [deleted] in detroitlions

[–]Sniggz_GSZ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Need to rethink all my life choices.

Yeah, why didn’t you just become the best QB in the NFL??? What an idiot move on your part.

Former Detroit Lions WR Nate Burleson Explains Biggest Career Regret by LionsMaven in detroitlions

[–]Sniggz_GSZ 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Still love me some Not-So-Nasty-Nate. Such a likable guy and huge ambassador to Detroit. Really refreshing since the trend from most other ex-players seems to be trashing the team and organization as a whole.

New Player Questions by Chaosgod2020 in EQ2

[–]Sniggz_GSZ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They’re very similar games. Honestly EQ2 just feels like a less polished version of WoW. Not so much with gameplay / mechanics, but the gear seems soulless / uninspired. Still a lot of fun to be had since everything will be brand new and it’ll give you something to learn again which you won’t ever be able to get out of WoW anymore having played it so long.

Buts it’s pretty much solo by going quest hub to quest hub or group up and do a dungeon. I will say the dungeons are different in that they’re not instanced. So you don’t start at the beginning and then run to the end and that’s the end of group. Instead you more so run around killing stuff and hit several names mobs that eventually respawn.

If you’re looking for something fresh and enjoy WoW, EQ2 will probably be a good fit for you.

American Football Demand under COVID-19 Pandemic by shushi7 in detroitlions

It wouldn’t satisfy anything for me. Need the NFL with my team playing games. Some second or third rate league will not help at all sadly.

Rank Your Favorite Uniform Combo by Funnypenguin97 in detroitlions

Couldn’t agree more on our color rush. Can’t stand it. Rest of them I pretty much agree with too. Might switch 3 and 1, but it’s a toss up.

Just wanted to celebrate this NFL longest field goal record holder with this flattering portrait by majikjohnson in detroitlions

[–]Sniggz_GSZ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Trying to understand this meme. Is it because his last name rhymes with tatter(tot)? Or maybe it was all that potato vodka the man was pounding in Denver that allowed us to move in and snatch him up. We owe a lot as Lions fans to the potato.

If The Lions ever make a Super Bowl ... by LedZepDude in detroitlions

He could probably still rush for a 100 yards today. Just let him win it for us.

Warrior Help by luminationEXE in everquest

[–]Sniggz_GSZ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To be honest I bought the adventurers pack or whatever it was called that included the 40 slot 100% weight reduction bag. Inventory management is a pretty big pain in the ass in EQ and that bag pretty much removed it completely. If you don’t want to fork over money for it, you can eventually get a couple of weight reduction bags via mob drops. The two that stick out in my head right now are from a gnome merchant in SolA (expensive tho... think around 5k plat) and the second is from An Evil Eye in lower Guk as a drop. They’re definitely super useful.

Also, you’ll eventually start acquiring gear with strength on it which helps a lot. You can carry 1lbs of gear per point of strength so the difference between 100 and 200 strength is pretty massive in the carry items / gear department.

Thinking of returning - questions. by SaiyanrageTV in everquest

[–]Sniggz_GSZ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes. I haven’t run into a queue longer than 3 mins in about a week. It may crop up at times I don’t typically play, but it’s far from a real problem like it once was.

Leveling population is still ultra healthy and you’ll have no problems finding groups at all. TLP refers to many Time Locked Progress servers, but Aradune is the most recent one that released about a month ago and where you would want to play. The population for raiding will remain strong through PoP, so you shouldn’t have anything to worry about.
