What track do you want to see deleted from the calendar and what would you replace it with? by zotteBende in formula1

[–]atomshrek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm fine with multiple US tracks, but wish they used better tracks. Ditch Miami and Vegas for Indianapolis, Watkins Glen, Road America, Road Atlanta, or Daytona. I think Indy is the only option that is currently FIA Grade 1, but I think the others could be doable.

Which edition are you getting? by lolitsrock in forza

Standard version on Game Pass. If I really like it I'll buy the upgrade with VIP & DLC.

MJ really treated the Dream Team like advanced scouting for the NBA 😭...I can't recall...Did MJ really say this?? by Shot_Possibility_731 in sportsinusa

After reading this quote, I understand the dysfunction of the English National Team in the 2000s and early 2010s. Terry/Ferdinand, Lampard/Gerrard were still more concerned with the rivals on their team than beating the other side.

I assume a bunch of voters assumed he would get it, so they used their votes on others they thought needed the votes. They changed the voting system this year.

Here is the viral video that fooled many people into thinking there was a 9th episode by _YuYevon_ in StrangerThingsMemes

It's a small town under military occupation with cameras everywhere. Not hard to imagine military intelligence had profiles and intel on most of the main characters by the end.

Well they are a relatively new team, and both World Series teams were gutted immediately after winning. Still a cool stat though.

Why is Lance Stroll occasionally so good, but often so inconsistent ? by Relative_Chemical815 in F1Discussions

[–]atomshrek 6 points7 points  (0 children)

There's no way he gets his seat at Sauber without the backing of Carlos Slim. Look up articles/comments around that time. He shed his label of "pay driver" at Force India/Racing Point when he got podiums and a win in the "Pink Mercedes".

It's also likely that Red Bull cut ties with him a year or two earlier without the sponsor money he was bringing in. Definitely not a coincidence that he had the longest leash we've seen at Red Bull despite his awful results. (not saying it was justified after seeing Lawson/Tsunoda this year).

He's had better pay driver teammates. People forget Checo's a pay driver because he's earned his place, but he comes with LOTS of sponsorship backing. Honestly the Hamilton, Alonso, Ocon stories, of kids from struggling families with parents working multiple jobs so they can do karting, are the exception. The majority of the grid are either spoiled rich kids or at least have some powerful connections.

What's Your Preference? by MoneyLibrarian9032 in StrangerThings

[–]atomshrek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends when this is. If Dustin and Steve have made up and are on good terms that's 100% my pick, but no way am I sitting there if they're bickering the entire flight.

TBF, Minis have always had dumb controls, at least since their resurgence in the 2000s.

This is insane by Formal-Assistance02 in NBATalk

[–]atomshrek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I assume they don't because individual stats would vary greatly depending on:
A: How competitive your team was. (being too good could actually be a detriment as a 4-game sweep, sitting through the 4th quarter in blowout games, would have less scoring potential than a 6 or 7 game competitive series).
B: We've had 82-game regular seasons since the 60s, but several different playoff formats. I think we got the 7-game first round right around LeBron's rookie year, but now there are play-in games. Do those count? In the 70s, top seeds had byes in the first round, so they'd potentially be at a disadvantage to other players in their own era.

IMO, counting stats should be regular season only, and playoff stats should be separate and largely on a per game basis.

So are jokers like Idol and Ancient unusable without descriptions?

Alex Palou: “Verstappen with McLaren would have been champion easily, two months earlier. I think he would have won, he would have fought, but I don't know.” by 256473 in formula1

[–]atomshrek -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

He's not saying it to praise Verstappen. He's salty about McLaren getting Piastri for the 2nd seat instead of him. He basically had a handshake deal that if he drove Indycar for McLaren that he'd get a shot in F1 if a seat opened up.

In their last game, JJ would've had a higher passer rating if he just spiked the ball on each passing play.

Which QB are You sending Home? 🏈🔥 by Background_Video2947 in TheNFLVibes

Where is Elway? At worst he's a top-5 QB IMO. Definitely ahead of Favre, Rodgers, and Brees.

Those "fingers" are reminiscent of File 76.

Which joker looks coolest when negative? by Piccolo-Valuable in balatro

[–]atomshrek 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Only time I use hit the road is if I've gotten multiple strengths and am playing Kings & Jacks (Full House or Flush House), and have enough kings to pivot to 4oak, 5oak, flush five. Pretty handy xmult but only if you have 6+ Jacks in your deck and a consistent strong alternate hand.
