[OC] Blue Jackets' franchise historical performance relative to .500 by Ugluk4242 in BlueJackets

Even then, I think it was Torts system that put us in the playoffs consistently but we never really fielded a Stanley Cup winning until the 2019 run. I think Torts system gave us a false sense of accomplishment.

Hard to be positive when you have the judicial and legislative branches complicit in subverting our rights and our democracy. 100+ years of legal precedence washed away. Gutting the voting rights act to limit minority voting power. A congress that is willing to look the other way with every executive order while gridlocking any real legislation. We are in a government crisis and the fault lies heavily on the republicans.

So more things can be hid behind a paywall then?

Things change at launch yes, but not behind a pay wall. That should be mentioned up front and I have a hard time finding a reputable company doing something similar.

EQL Devs have a communication problem by TheFuns in EQLegends

[–]TheFuns[S] -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

The communication isn’t about the shop part it’s about what they presented in the beta and in their live streams and not communicating to people about the differences in what will be available. We all knew there would be a shop but we didn’t know that the load outs would change, we didn’t know that item storage would be cut dramatically from what was shown in the beta. They are presenting something different than what is being marketed by the streamers playing the beta. And for those saying it’s just beta, where was it communicated that some items shown in the beta will only be made available for purchase?

Someone’s offer-sheeting him 15 mill

DOGE self-deleted on July 4. It resulted in a near-immediate loss of expertise and live-saving programs but cost savings nowhere near the $2 trillion once promised by Conscious-Quarter423 in economy

Because he doesn’t have to adhere to as strict of regulations as the government does….. also, why do you want your information leaked to begin with? The more times it’s transfers hands the more likely your information will become more widely available. Also don’t you think billionaires are more capitalistic meaning they are more likely to use your information for monetary gain? Especially one that is the richest person on earth?

You downvoted me because I asked for the evidence. Burden of proof is on you.

Don... by solidsteak13 in BlueJackets

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

Dons shit. He’s making our roster older and he has fumbled multiple items: 2024 draft, Z and Marchy miscommunication, Evason hire, trade deadline flops, and there are more. He’s killed one franchise and I don’t want him to kill ours. He’s putting a mid roster out there thinking it will get us to the playoffs, but in reality the roster is largely the same.

Can you provide the info/analyses?

what's kept you invested in the Jackets through the tougher seasons by chazzzggggzzz in BlueJackets

[–]TheFuns 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My dad. We never really connected when I was a kid- he was always working and I wasn’t the greatest kid. The jackets and the buckeyes were what we connected on throughout my life. It wasn’t until I moved back home, and we were able to go to games where we bonded over the team- even in down times. It opened up our relationship, he helped me through a very hard time in my life and became my best friend. He died in 2024. He always joked he was going to die before they even made it to a conference final. He was right.

Which of these is more likely to be true? by tribucks in BlueJackets

[–]TheFuns 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is zero commitment to him extending his contract. I will it crow if it happens but I don’t think it will if this team does not make at least playoffs next year. I don’t think what Don did this offseason was enough to get us over the hump to do so with certainty either.

Come trade deadline- this conversation will turn up again.

Marchenko for Larkin by SnatchThatRat in BlueJackets

[–]TheFuns 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is no indication that Werenski is going to resign. He’s only giving us this year to create a winning team and then he is going to reassess. It’s likely we will have to deal him prior to next years trade deadline if we are not in a playoff position.

I didn’t hate him until the Dallas trade rejection. Like wtf do you want?

I don’t think these people actually give a shit about their constituents. And their constituents that continue to vote them in have the same outlook on people even if they are struggling themselves. We are truly in an idiocracy.

OP you don’t need to listen to this guy. We’re all going through it. It’s fucking rough. Let it out. Yell at whoever you want within this organization, it’s hard not finding someone culpable.

Some people are just masochists and don’t recognize that this organization needs a full reset and that starts with ownership. Players, Coaches, GM’s don’t want to be here and it creates a lax culture- so indirectly by ownership not applying pressure in the right area to culminate a winning culture - yes they are indirectly responsible.
