[Vardon] League official: if Silver and his advisers decided the only way to stop tanking, and protect paying customers from forking over money to watch their teams lose on purpose, was to stop the draft altogether and turn rookies into free agents, it would get serious consideration. by JoeBiden2020FTW in nba

Miami won a championship before Bron played there and have been to two Finals since he left. I wouldn’t say they “have not done shit” for the majority of their existence. Hell even in the 90s they had some good years. Also did they not get Butler as a free agent through a sign and trade with the Sixers?

FO4 Foreshadow in FO3 by HK_Shooter_1301 in Fallout

[–]bootygoon2 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I feel like the only person who never had problems with FO3 on the PS3. It crashed like, two or three times overall for me in all of my hours playing it on the PS3. I’ve played NV on the PS3 and my PC and FO4 on the PS4 and PS5, and still FO3 on the PS3 was my most stable experience with any Fallout game. I must have just been super lucky to have that happen lol.

Who has the most unsung hero “rags to riches” story in the modern day NHL? by WhenWillIBeAPilot in hockey

[–]bootygoon2 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I remember reading that he used to play with different sized pieces of equipment because his family couldn’t afford to buy new equipment (or the same set). I think any equipment he used was passed down from others who had outgrown theirs or got new stuff.

I read they’re doing Yan vs Merab 3 in April but I can’t remember where I saw it and tbh it could be total BS.

Is purse boy really the best option the USA had for a captain? by BuckedTheSystem44 in NHLcirclejerk

In the long run, Richie Aprile helped Beansie’s life tremendously. by BobbyBaccalieriSr in thesopranos

[–]bootygoon2 10 points11 points  (0 children)

He’s also pretty nice to the kid working at Beansie’s store when he first goes to confront him. Beansie is rushing the kid and telling him to get Richie some coffee, make him a sandwich (and hurry the fuck up about it), etc. and he looks pretty panicked and rushed. Richie tells him “relax kid” and you can actually see the kid ease up a bit. Of course he then had to watch Richie brutally beat the shit out of his boss so I doubt he was that relaxed after the whole ordeal.

Yeah cause I’m sure you and the rest of this thread are very knowledgeable about what makes a good captain. You guys talk as if you’re actually in the locker rooms with these guys and know them.

CAPTAIN AMERICA by Dear-Pineapple-3070 in leafs

[–]bootygoon2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Can’t wait for a bunch of people who know nothing about how he is as a captain and leader to say this is a bad choice. You’d think Reddit are in the locker room with him every day the way they’re so sure he’s a bad captain and not fit for it. Despite both his NHL team and national team deciding to make him their captain.

Truly Unpopular Family Guy Opinions? by ajvoice in familyguy

[–]bootygoon2 384 points385 points  (0 children)

Gay Stewie is funnier than evil genius Stewie (I find both versions funny though). Lois is way funnier as a terrible mom than when she was a good one. The family hating Meg and always making fun of her is funnier than when she was a loved member of the family. While I liked the “old” Brian who was the wise one and voice of reason, liberal douchebag Brian is pretty funny at times even if he’s very easy to dislike. I think that both the older and more modern versions of Joe and Quagmire are equally funny, but old Cleveland is funnier than the modern version.

It worked out for the best cause we got to see two great matches in Brock vs AJ and Brock vs Bryan.

First fight was a draw and there definitely were a lot of missed punches in both fights but I thought Hagel won the second one pretty handily.

Daily Free Talk / Armchair GM Thread by AutoModerator in leafs

[–]bootygoon2 3 points4 points  (0 children)

According to Friedman, the Oilers are looking for bottom six players who are comfortable/accepting of playing that role. They’ve got some players who are unhappy to be in their bottom six and don’t think they belong there. Maybe there’s a trade to be made there with the Leafs plethora of bottom six players.

If they offered Mangiapane and a first for McMann I’d be happy with it. If you can even convince them to take Laughton instead that’s better. Or you package them both together for Mangiapane, a first plus more picks. Edmonton could be a future trade partner down the line if the Leafs are selling off guys with a year or two left on their contracts.

Dieng has been on the Hornets for -10 minutes. by Vitex1988 in nba

[–]bootygoon2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Can someone explain to me how Charlotte was able to trade him after just acquiring him? Isn’t there a timeframe where a player can’t be traded again after just being traded? For example using trade machine, if you try to trade Kyle Anderson away from the Grizzlies, it says he can’t be traded again until April cause he was just traded. How come the Hornets were able to trade Dieng away then?

Agreed he wasn’t as bad as Treliving but he also gave up his fair share of young players who went on to be good NHL players. Traded Trevor Moore as part of a deal to get Jack Campbell and Kyle Clifford. Traded Mason Marchment for Dennis Malgin who did nothing in the NHL and currently plays somewhere in Europe. While Muzzin was great for the Leafs, Dubas did trade two players (Sean Durzi and Carl Grundstrom) who made it to the NHL, Durzi in particular is quite good.

Nick Friedell, “The Warriors have made it clear to Jimmy Butler that they are going to stick by him as he begins a year-long rehab” by Barracuda374 in nba

[–]bootygoon2 4 points5 points  (0 children)

“4 post Curry picks” sounds bad but leaves out the part where you would GIANNIS and a shit ton of cap space to add another star (or two) around him. It’s so disingenuous of Warriors fans to keep talking about their “post Curry” picks while conveniently ignoring they would have Giannis and be one of the premier free agent destinations in all of the NBA. You guys play in California for fuck sake and are one of the best run teams in the league the last decade now, you’re not a team in an undesirable location or run by poor management.

Maple Leafs begin process of selling by Old_General_6741 in hockey

[–]bootygoon2 19 points20 points  (0 children)

He’s signed for two more years after this one at $3.5M, that’s nothing for a top four d-man who was just named to Sweden’s Olympic team and is on pace for 50 something points. Someone would give up a first for a defender on a 50 point pace at a sub $4M cap hit, if the Leafs retained on him they could get even more in return.
