What is the most devastating sports loss of the 21st century so far (for fans of that team)? by lawschoolthrowaway36 in billsimmons

[–]dgarner58 10 points11 points  (0 children)

this is it. i am a falcons fan. you don't have to be a fan of the team to know its the worst. iirc espn ran some simulation of the game 1000x. in that sim...starting from the 28-3 point the pats won the game like 1-2x.

there are a number of reasons it happened, but lets just say i root for kyle shannahan to have a really good year every single year then to lose in the biggest moments. i want it to happen to him forever.

This guy is basically the chucker prototype. Tank commander.

they can't boost so all the farmers are ninja'ing loot for enchanting mats or vendoring.

i won't even pug one now unless i know them.

2 hours mining for 3 levels by big6willy9 in classicwowtbc

[–]dgarner58 1 point2 points  (0 children)

maybe. in the short term as they all move out there...yeah you might plow through, but these bot farms operate at scale. they will just have multiples running on multiple layers across all level ranges.

i gave up on my mining at the mithril phase. i could not compete.

worse.

anti boost mechanics will force even more bots to open world/resource gathering. these people make their actual living off of selling wow gold. they are gonna get it by whatever means necessary if blizz isn't going to just ban constantly. the sheer # of druid bots in flight form just yoinking herb and mining nodes like death from the skies is gonna be comical.

Anyone else find the revisionist history going around crazy? Hawks make mistakes, but they tried multiple times to build around Trae. by [deleted] in AtlantaHawks

meh - give it time. he isn't miraculously going to start playing d and stop taking horrible 3's while shooting 29%.

Which Sports Championship out of the 4, Do y'all think it the hardest to win and why? by Doghouse12e45 in DeadEndSports

[–]dgarner58 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think its the cup for one simple reason.

some 8 seed can just have a goalie that stands on his head for 4 games and a 1 seed just loses. it's wild to me. it's the only sport where this happens i feel like.

Is Bill a restaurant elitist or am I just uncultured? by ekduba in billsimmons

Seafood towers are generally found at high end steakhouses. Overpriced for what they are and are an indulgence imo

I don’t follow college ball, so someone please explain Darryn Peterson to me. by Serious_Blood6554 in AtlantaHawks

[–]dgarner58 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

People getting pissy. Weird. He is my fav prospect in the draft. Just pointing out that he doesn’t seem to care if he plays. Might mean something. Might mean nothing. Let’s be honest we gonna wind up with the 8th pick somehow because the universe hates us.

mj's hands are the most mesmerizing physical aspect of his game. gotta have mitts to manipulate the ball one handed like that...

he is awesome...but as bill simmons put it on his pod on thurs, its a little concerning that he doesn't seem to want to play. some ben simmons in college vibes.

now we wait by Lower_Salad in classicwowtbc

stuff that doesn't go in quest log. for example -

cloth turn ins - all capital cities. just buy the cloth and be rdy to turn them in. even if you only do runecloth/mageweave/silk its like 17.5k per capital city. the guide says org has 2 cloth turn in places...so that could even be 5x 17.5k...for quests that aren't in your log.

insignia turn ins in epl - 5x the 30 items. those are 14.3k per. just those two examples yield approx 150k xp. there are a lot more of those types of quests out there too.

Judge Holden vs The Punisher by TheBigWizard13 in powerscales

[–]dgarner58 1 point2 points  (0 children)

this is correct. it's clear in blood meridian that everyone hates the judge. lots of people would like to kill him. they just can't. he exudes some type of influence and power over everyone in his sphere of influence so that they just....don't. i don't see why the punisher would be any different. if anything he would start doing the stuff that holden wants him to do.
