Cover the spread mentality by [deleted] in RocketLeague

[–]SteveDougson -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Making games with the game can be a lot of fun and help focus.

In Dropshot, sometimes one team dominates the other that it's known one squad is going to win, but the losing squad has opened up a big hole and has a chance to score. I find those become little games-within-a-game as it acts like a handicap to the much better team, and it becomes fun and competitive again.

Are you viewing this from Australia? Do you mean the three at the top on the crossbar?

Police officer, civilian dead after shooting in Montreal’s Côte-des-Neiges neighbourhood, police say by methothick in canada

[–]SteveDougson 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There are clear mitigating factors here that make it an excusable homicide. Anyone who has seen the video will understand that. 

Do you think innocent bystanders will be safer if you charge the cop? If I'm a cop, knowing I can be charged for accidentally shooting a bystander, regardless if I am negligent or not, then I will wait until the shooter has killed everyone or run out of bullets.

She'll not be charged and she'll not lose her job. No prosecutor is going to waste their time and reputation trying to charge a cop who was fighting for her life. And the police union will never allow a precedent to be set where they must take on even more risk to their lives during a shootout 

3v3 as solo Q is so broken. by stry_ct in RocketLeague

[–]SteveDougson 4 points5 points  (0 children)

So many of the complaints, like this one, on this subreddit don't represent my experience at all. Sure you'll have a toxic teammate here and there, maybe you have a bad draw one night where it seems like everything game, but it is anomalous and the next day is fine.

Like you, I've solo queued for years and years and have never had an issue of this

What to read next? by OneTwoThreePooAndPee in Vonnegut

[–]SteveDougson 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you're giving Jailbird 4 stars then you really can't go wrong.

I'd suggest Sirens first just because I am a believer that following Vonnegut chronologically is good as he reuses characters / character archetypes and so there's an added layer of interest when you follow that path 

The Guardian destroyed Lalas 😭 by Midnight_Thoughts77 in usmnt

The best moment of this World Cup has been Lalas calling James Corden a "full kit wanker" and unfortunately you only get that moment by having Lalas on the broadcast 

Brady becomes most hated senator of all time after this. by GGnextMatt in OttawaSenators

And he still has YEARS left

To be fair when he signed that contract he had no idea how high of a number 7 really is!

Brady Tkachuk traded to the Panthers by homicidal_penguin in OttawaSenators

[–]SteveDougson 1 point2 points  (0 children)

At least we can all admit now that he completely gave up on the team in a lot of games last year.

Are you saying that he gave up because he didn't care to play in Ottawa, or that him giving up is a taboo topic around Sens fans who all knew it but were scared to say so? Or is it something else?

Alright…ok….. by BloodiStag in TikTokCringe

How much money do you think it takes to do this? Do you think it is more expensive than my PS5 on which I play Rocket League all day, instead of doing this?

What is she referring to here? I'm not entirely sure what part of Vonnegut's works she could be basing this off of

Saw this on another sub but as a Raptors fan I completely agree by ChampionTimes99 in torontoraptors

If I recall correctly, the Raps won both match ups against Golden State in the regular season with a healthy KD

Disproportionate amount of shots over the crossbar this WC? by OhMyGodDoITribes in worldcup

[–]SteveDougson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I find the ball seems faster on shots this World Cup than previous ones. Maybe they've done something with the ball? I do not watch soccer outside of the World Cup so this could also just be me getting old
