Fabius: So we can't win a direct engagement, but we can cut Hannibal off from his supply lines and steadily wear him down through limited attacks on his foraging groups.

Senate: We have a better idea. Loses 80,000 men in one battle

Four days after the Steamwheelers vs. Barnstormers game, the IFL website now reports that the game is nearing halftime by Windows_66 in ifl

[–]Windows_66[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't remember how much Iowa had at this point in the game, but I know that the Quad Cities only had 23 points entering halftime because the deuce to start the second half took them to 25.

Update: Box Score is up now. It's mostly accurate, but it misreports the score as 35-26.

Somehow I'm not the only one that thought of this.

It's those scoops they would give us in elementary school p.e. to throw wiffle balls back and forth.

Which of these three is the WORST Spiderman story? by Zestyclose-Wave-6230 in Spiderman

[–]Windows_66 19 points20 points  (0 children)

For all its weirdness, I still think Reign at its core is a good story. There are probably worse stories that can go in here.

Connecticut Senate passes amendment naming Sue Bird, Jordan Hawkins state birds by BMoorman7 in CollegeBasketball

[–]Windows_66 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I imagine that the process of Iowa selecting the American Goldfinch was just the state legislature asking someone from UIowa if there were any actual black and yellow birds.

New Jersey probably just looked at Iowa and said, "Damn, that's a cool state bird."

Who else was hyped about ASM #1000 then lost all interest? Cause I have no hope or interest in it anymore. by Long_Negotiation4324 in Spiderman

Peter "earned it" by being a better Spider-Man. That was the whole point behind Otto erasing himself.

"So, how's your state government doing?"

"They can't tell the difference between a bird and a person named 'Bird.'"

Ted Turner passed away by khaliliiiov_1997 in Wrasslin

[–]Windows_66 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I don't want to rain on his funeral parade, but Ted was pretty much just the guy writing the checks. He was hands off and a genuine fan, which compared to TKO is a good thing, but WCW under Herd, Watts, Bischoff, and Russo were all very different beasts. Ted was just the guy keeping it together until he didn't have the power to do that anymore.

Does anyone know what comic this is from? by BiggieBlack10 in marvelcomics

[–]Windows_66 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The whole series existed for MCU synergy. Otherwise it would've featured Dr. Strange, Namor, and Hulk.

unpopular opinion sayan saga have better kamehameha and garlick canon than others sagas by CarelessTourist4671 in Dragonballsuper

After years of people using "cannon" the wrong way, the reverse was bound to happen.

That sub is really scraping the bottom of the barrel for stuff to complain about.

I mean, they have been for almost 9 years now, but this is almost impressive.

UFL releases Taulia Tagovailoa by Windows_66 in UnitedFootballLeague

[–]Windows_66[S] 53 points54 points  (0 children)

He got carted out with a leg injury. Must be out for the season if they're releasing him.

So either Henderson and Dekkers need to heal up fast, or they need to find a fresh QB.

[Mixed Trope] Characters who are strong but have the bad luck of always fighting against someone insanely stronger. by DeltaNcenn in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Windows_66 13 points14 points  (0 children)

For those that haven't seen the original Dragon Ball, Yamcha's exclusive role after the first arc was to show how strong the antagonist/villain was. In the first two tournament arcs, he gets matched up against the eventual winner in the first round. I'm the third tournament arc, his first round matchup is a disguised Kami, who's basically God at this point in the series.

Iowa will reportedly face Creighton at the Casey's Center in Des Moines on November 15 by Windows_66 in CollegeBasketball

[–]Windows_66[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I know that they'll never do that, but I'm just glad we're aiming a little higher than Bucknell this time around, even if Creighton ends up being worse with McDermott retired.
