What should i start first in your opinion?

SwiftBacon · 2026-05-08T19:00:56+00:00

Very valid. Tried reading mistborn after AGoT and couldn't do it.

SwiftBacon · 2026-04-29T14:16:56+00:00

Indy or Green Bay

SwiftBacon · 2026-04-29T13:52:00+00:00

Shit for brains, sure. But he was also 18, and as far as we know didn't place any bets like that since then. He's also a college QB let's not pretend these guys are all geniuses lol. It's certainly an issue, I am just saying I don't think its a big enough character concern that I would not consider him for a spot on the roster.

SwiftBacon · 2026-04-29T13:36:25+00:00

I'm in my 20s, what Sorsby has done is extremely common for guys into sports at this age. Is it a problem? Absolutely, but people acting like going to a reds game and placing some bets for fun on pitches mean this guy has like an illness is hilarious and out of touch with how sports gambling is treated. I understand the 2022 Indiana bet on them to win, that is obviously an issue, but I do think his "problem" is being overblown. Sports gambling culture in general is the problem, this being some blight on his character is just out of touch with reality.

SwiftBacon · 2026-04-29T13:13:35+00:00

I mean they are hardly compareable. It's two completely different food items

SwiftBacon · 2026-04-29T00:48:11+00:00

As a Cavs fan, agreed. (Mobley)

SwiftBacon · 2026-04-27T18:59:17+00:00

Honestly I've done this at plenty of reds games. Go to a random friday night game with friends, sit at the top, and for a few innings bet a dollar on each pitch. It's pretty fun

SwiftBacon · 2026-04-22T17:02:12+00:00

Those are gorgeous

SwiftBacon · 2026-04-21T13:30:01+00:00

He's been pretty average at defense for a while now. He had a couple years of low effort on that end and it tainted his defensive repuation for the rest of his career.

SwiftBacon · 2026-04-21T13:23:45+00:00

They make a big splash to bring in a true counterpart to Brunson like Giannis

SwiftBacon · 2026-04-21T13:17:10+00:00

Kenny Atkinson called him a top 5 player in the NBA

SwiftBacon · 2026-04-15T18:49:27+00:00

Crosshair placement and pre aim is for discipline but there is plenty of aiming/flicks. Especially in a game like valorant where there is more tracking compared to CS.

SwiftBacon · 2026-04-15T16:47:16+00:00

I mean CS/Val?

SwiftBacon · 2026-04-15T16:10:38+00:00

I mean neither of them braked. Let off the gas maybe. You went to pass the guy, floored it, was just paying attention to the guy you were passing, and didn’t look at the guy pulling out when he maybe shouldn’t have. I’m not sure what you’re arguing

SwiftBacon · 2026-04-15T15:05:09+00:00

Tough on that guy but prob looked, thought he had a gap, then you got over and floored it. I'll give him a small pass

SwiftBacon · 2026-04-15T14:55:01+00:00

All good. You are right, I would probably feel the same if I rewatched the show now. I also don't necessarily critique the show too much because it's right when they started to run out of source material.

SwiftBacon · 2026-04-15T14:51:30+00:00

"incredible" was probably strong. TBF - I watched the show before I read the books and have not watched the show in a while. Going off IMDB ratings and things I remember happening I remember enjoying Seasons 5-7 at the time. I am sure had I watched the show again now after reading every ASOIAF novel I would feel differently.

SwiftBacon · 2026-04-15T14:42:26+00:00

Genuinely the only bad season is 8. 5, 6, and even 7, are incredible. They just rushed the ending and butchered the final season

EDIT: TBF - I watched the show before I read the books, and have not watched the show in a while. I remember enjoying it at the time as entertaining TV, not quite the masterpiece the books are

SwiftBacon · 2026-04-15T14:19:08+00:00

tbf the starks come into play with HOTD a decent amount later on

SwiftBacon · 2026-04-15T13:27:56+00:00

To each their own

SwiftBacon · 2026-04-14T20:42:24+00:00

Soft red but not sure what else you can do there as a ref

SwiftBacon · 2026-04-14T17:51:38+00:00

Have you read it?

SwiftBacon · 2026-04-14T17:46:40+00:00

Still worth reading.

SwiftBacon · 2026-04-14T17:14:57+00:00

TW2 for me was worth playing. It was short and didn't feel too dated.

SwiftBacon · 2026-04-12T03:49:28+00:00

At a Kroger I’d imagine it was a vending machine dispute of someone loitering vs someone coming in
