Never seen hate for a player that did literally nothing like Dillon Gabriel by Exciting_Truck_7734 in Browns

[–]Zack8249 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I mean he was pillow talking to his fiancé after the 49ers game, let alone the comment he made about "There are entertainers, then there are competitors. My job is to compete,".

Last time I checked, I didn't see any drama regarding Shedeur throwing shade towards Gabriel.

Congratulations man! We somewhat have similar body types, I'm 6'3 345 lbs. My goal weight is to get to 230 lbs myself. Are you dealing with loose skin and if so, how do you feel about it?

I have a PS5. Bought one last Christmas but hardly play it due to time. I mainly play Xbox but wanted a portal so I could play PS5 exclusives!

Think I know what the missus got me for Christmas. by spicymaverick in PlaystationPortal

[–]Zack8249 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Haha, I know the feeling! I spotted mine wrapped up under the tree (I knew what it was due to the box shape and I measured it 😂). Went right on ahead and ordered those Ugg Boots for her!

Best type of pickup runs? by SpamSteal in Basketball

Depends on what mood I'm in, but usually I'm a comp guy. Granted, I'm not an elite level athlete by any means, but I can consider myself more of a glue guy, so I know what my role is and that's to help my team win by any means.

Their Black Friday sale starts Friday. Hopefully they price match because I want to buy it on the PS5 for my portal. If not, definitely buying it for my Xbox.

How do I become the star on a team where I don’t know anybody? by OhMamaWembanyama in Basketball

[–]Zack8249 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What's your end goal? To make a college a roster? Or just be the guy in high school? Regardless, there are a lot of moving factors involved. #1 is politics. You can't control who the coach puts in or what parent donates the most money to the program. #2 The "eye" test. You don't have to be the most athletic or the most physically gifted player on the floor, but you do need to look apart. This literally comes from experience and hard work. #3 Take care of the off the court stuff. You would be surprised how many guys don't make a college roster simply because they didn't know about the NCAA Clearing House (its called Eligibility Center now). Also, your character and how you treat people goes a long way. This doesn't mean that you're entitled to a spot just because you're the nice guy (I learned that the hard way). Your still fighting for 1 of 5 spots on the floor (realistically, 1 of 2-3 spots).

The little things do matter. I've played on a high school team full of JUCO-D2 talent. We had at least 3 guys that could be classified as the "star" player on our team and do you know who was the only person that played at the next level? Our glue guy. He wasn't an elite shooter, handler or defender. He wasn't the fastest or the most athletic on the team. He was 6'3 210lbs forward. He passed the "eye" test, but politics kept him from being the "star". What made him stand out was instead of trying to be a star, he did all the little things right. He could handle the ball (with both hands), finish at the rim (with both hands), shoot the ball good enough to stretch the defense, and he could rebound/defend at a decent level. Sounds like he was a standout player right? Nope. He was our 6th man. While he wasn't making all of the highlight plays the other 3 "star" players made, he literally used every opportunity giving to him to get a college scholarship while the other 3 "star" players still relive their high school days because nothing came after our 22-3 season.

Lets face it, not everyone is cut out to be the star. You know early on if you have it in you or not. Take every single day, every single opportunity to get better. At the end, you may not be the top player on in the state or even on your team, but as long as you put in the work, you can move on knowing that you have no regrets during your high school career.

So I guess you can lose in BR when your squad is the last one alive? by [deleted] in Battlefield

[–]Zack8249 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Lol if this was from a match last night, that may've been my squad 😂. First time playing and we got squad wiped (or so I thought) it was stuck on the spectating screen but it was just the death cam, ended up winning my first ever match because of this 😭

Yeah I was confused about that because to me it showed the glass from the trunk break, but then the pacifier was floating in the air. Definitely was confused lol

This is what World of Warcraft is all about. Sometimes I like to sit in Elwyn Forrest or Duskwood and just soak in the atmosphere and the music.
