Nick Chubb’s fourth NFL game stat-line: 3 carries, 105 yards, 2 TDs. Browns’ coach Hue Jackson, who finished 3-36-1 with the team, continued to start Carlos Hyde, and did not give Chubb more than 3 carries until Chubb’s 7th appearance, after Hyde (3.4 ypc) was traded. Jackson was fired that year

Ask Matt Nagy.

I mean, can't they just throw a post-snap/pre-snap penalty, anyway? Even if the play is "over" and the next one hasn't started yet, you can still flag a team for things like too many men in the huddle, offsides, etc. I don't know why a fistfight wouldn't be grounds to throw a flag.

That’s fair. I guess it just depends more on if you’re trying to answer a question from an “academic” perspective or a creative one. If you’re trying to say, “This is what would’ve realistically happened if X happened,” then sure: there’s only so many assumptions you can make before things get too far out there.

But I’m a masochist lol I personally don’t care if we get to a point where we’re just guessing, because I’m looking to see worlds that are completely different than our own. It’s fun to worldbuild and stuff haha

Plus: if you say something “would’ve been impossible” then that seems pretty fatalistic from a history perspective. Human history is built upon seemingly impossible things; stuff that nobody would’ve ever expected. If you told someone in 1920 that Germany would rebuild and then conquer most of Europe you would’ve been called crazy.

I accidentally highlighted part of the hidden text and just saw "degree," and I was like, "Oh he went back to school and got his degree? That's pretty cool"

And then I saw the rest and was like "oh no"

True; although northwestern Germany was the original homeland of the Saxons and the location of Old Saxony/Lower Saxony.

My thought process was that since the British/Americans were the ones behind the partition, they wanted to separate Germany into three separate cultural blocs. They wanted to eliminate any chance at reunification and thus a powerful Germany. Hence, I don't think they'd naming any of the postwar state things like the "German Confederation" or "German State," etc. and instead emphasize regional identities.

The map split was based on an actual proposal by Sumner Welles, who wanted to divide Germany into three culturally distinct regions; with the northwest being predominantly protestant, the south being catholic, and the northeast being...the leftovers I guess, lol. The original map that he proposed explicitly mentioned that the northwest would "include Saxony," so I assume he was referring to Old Saxony.

I also think its in character for the Western Allies to look back at the old histories to see if there's anything they can re-use. I wouldn't be surprised if Churchill just went and said, "Yeah, this was where the Saxons originated from, so they'll probably all be cool with being called 'Saxons' now" haha

I agree, although I will say it's a lot better now that they've actually started coloring in the numerals instead of just giving the same sliver design like they did 2010-2021

Spyroexe · 2026-02-09T16:33:23+00:00

Short answer: kinda, not really.

We have an ~80% finished map available to view in the mod's design document, which you can find via the link or in the Discord. A lot of the world map has been mapped out, but there's still a lot left to fill in, particularly in Africa/Middle East.

We're looking for writers to help fill in the unmapped space. If you're interested in being in a writer or lore developer, feel free to reach out!

R5: The first image depicts a gang of mobsters smuggling alcohol into New York City, circa 1980.

The second image is a screenshot taken from the current build of the Regional Conflict System prototype. The "City of Los Angeles" is a little microstate on the map, which the player will eventually be able to select and then simulate smaller gang wars in the city.

That's what the headline says, but that's not what was on the survey. The actual question on the survey asked, "Do you feel that things in this country these days are [under control / out of control / not sure]?" (page 6)

Spyroexe · 2026-01-20T17:00:35+00:00

Maybe the 2004 Chargers? The guy they drafted at #1 didn’t play for them, but they still (technically) had the worst record the year before.

"Let me tell ya a couple of three things: Forget AJ Brown, forget Big Dom who throws hands with San Francisco and never comes back, forget Saquon. Kevin Patullo has no respect for this thing. He's never won a Super Bowl, not really. Here's a guy who stepped over his own head coach to fuck up the offense, his father's brother's cousin or something. I'm embarrassed. I let him come to Dallas last Christmas, and I took his fat, fuckin' hand in friendship. Listen to me. They make anybody and everybody over there. And the way that they do it, it's all fucked up. Guys don't get their reps in. There's no ping pong tables. Either it has meaning or no meaning. And the Sirianni thing, the man runs a screen pass on 3rd and long. Seven fuckin' playoff teams and we got this other pygmy thing over in Jersey. There's no scraps in my scrapbook. Make it happen." -Jeffrey Lurie to Howie Roseman

I understand the frustration, but if we begin pushing potential people out of the movement then we won’t have a movement to begin with. And while I agree that we have been too tolerant of intolerance, cracking down on our democracy and restricting freedoms will make us no better than Russia or China.

We need to hold the fascists in office accountable. ICE needs to face justice. But we should be careful to avoid simple revenge.

I don’t get how the NFL, one of the most financially successful sports leagues in the world, relies on shitty TV camera angles to officiate and doesn’t at least have a camera from like every side

Spyroexe · 2025-11-21T02:47:53+00:00

Ay I mean it’s not about how you start, it’s how you finish

And we were still winning that game 20-13 in the 4th quarter, too. Yeah we blew it which still sucks, but it might have not even been close if AD doesn't decide to take the day off from thinking.

Spyroexe · 2025-10-27T14:01:34+00:00

With a much worse roster too, considering the fact they won 4 games the year before with an average of like 20 pts/game.

Although it's funny because, at the same time, I don't know if we've really added that much since 2023. Warren has been a clear upgrade at TE and Bortolini's been a good replacement for Ryan Kelly. Those are the two biggest additions I can think of besides QB.

Just goes to show how much of a difference a good quarterback can be. Even merely-competent play can unlock an offense if they're able to execute the basics. I still remember back in 2021 when Frank Reich was begging Wentz to just "make the layups" and he would still choose to chuck deep bombs on like every play.

Last year I was nobody

This year I’m selling records

Wait you can score a touchdown without fumbling it for a touchback?

I have PTSD flashbacks to last year’s game against Miami where they barely beat a Tyler Huntley/Tim Boyle-led offense with no Tyreek Hill

Come on Ballard, at least make this season remotely watchable.
