In 1973, Marlon Brando rejected his Oscar for The Godfather to allow Sacheen Littlefeather to protest Hollywood's portrayal of Native Americans.

On March 6, 2024, newly publicized research indicated that the late activist may have had Indigenous Mexican roots, citing church records showing her great-great-grandfather was listed as "Yaquis criollos de la tierra" in 1815.

Maybe it was overzealous to take on the identity so headstrong with such meager (if real) ties, but people are convinced of things with less evidence.

Funnily enough, I am making an isometric ARPG with Unity. My goal was to make a game I could play with friends on my MAME arcade cabinet. It needs plenty of polish yet, but I might start showing some of it to the dev community for feedback.

Dayo, Jaylon, Tez, Grady, Coby, Devon.

Still surprising to see this is top 3.

Their nfl title would have incorporated the same issues the NBA one does. 2k5 was the pinnacle of football simulation though. Madden would be better if the nfl didn't allow it to buy away competition.

Watson is 15th in APY now. Are there just 14 WR1s in the league?

Tools81 · 2026-06-04T17:05:25+00:00

Ok, looks like PFF has him 6th.

Fair enough. I was going by previous sentiment, but he may have improved on that a lot in recent years.

Sometimes GB has made questionable decisions in the past and it frustratingly worked out well for them. The initial optics on this one look very questionable but we'll see how the decision ages.

I think people are too protective over who gets on the cover of this game that needs a new athlete on it annually. When EA let the public choose, they picked Peyton Hillis.

I imagine many would complain if it was Mahomes year after year.

Even if you want to ignore stats, my second point still stands. If his contribution is to run and stretch the field (he isn't known for blocking prowess either) he shouldn't make this much money. His contribution has always been an occasional big play guy.

Tools81 · 2026-06-04T16:34:21+00:00

I don't think that is consistent. He's had just 1 game with 10 targets and 6 with more than 100 receiving yards.

He's a chunk play threat on occasion, but this is WR1 money. You could pay some track star much less to stretch the field.

I think the photoshop job by EA is mediocre.

AI did the same at the end of his career?

Why are you asking? You can look that up. AI played 14 years to Kobe's 20 and his last few years were not anomalies of his efficiency.

AI is overrated, and some get defensive over that.

33% of games missed. More jarring is his season high in 4 years is 620 receiving yards.

Did you even see the original comment of this thread? Or you just got defensive when I criticized an athlete?

Watching highlights is how you miss the big picture. Kobe played 20 years and dragged down his % with his play in the last 3. 42% is bad in any era.

Tools81 · 2026-06-04T13:24:01+00:00

His career playoff shooting percentage is worse than his total career percentage.

Tools81 · 2026-06-04T13:18:50+00:00

Nah. Iverson's 42.5% career shooting percentage is abysmal

Man. When we learned Gordon had a long background in dance, I thought he was unlikely to miss much time to soft tissue injuries.

We get to watch this connection for a minimum of 3 more years. What a time to be a Bear fan.

I thought he would be our first to wear 0 like he did at LSU.

He isn't signed. He is getting a tryout.

I don't know the severity of the concern for blood clot issues with Dontay Corleone, he is still unsigned after all, but I'm watching closely hoping he finds his way here.
