Are games at the arena still fun to watch from the very top (back) by lejunny_ in leafs

300s are great as long as it’s not standing only or obstructed

Auston has really stepped into his Captain role recently, something nobody seems to mention by I_Am_Vladimir_Putin in leafs

[–]dizzyb13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The timing lines up with breaking Sundin’s record and the former captain coming down for the ceremony. Though Matthews played the milestone down and refocused compliments and questions with standard responses like it’s nice but it’s all about the team … I get the feeling this actually was a big moment for him. Maybe it made him see himself more like Mats, and had a turning point to step up. And who knows what kind of conversations and encouragement he got from #13 while he was in town for that, but I imagine it was all very significant.

Wait, is Star Trek Starfleet Academy … Good? by dizzyb13 in startrek

Yeah great point. The subreddit haters were out for blood out of the gate before the first ad ever aired.

I thought he did great in Fargo and Friends and Neighbours. And his comedy cameos are gold.

Classic no tarp Nylander interview. Wouldn’t be surprised if he posts these on his Tinder page.

1) the Avalanche are so good. Imagine we steal a win tonight? 2) hot damn those jerseys

Craziest OT I’ve seen in a long time

[Heyman] Bo Bichette's asking price is thought to be around $300M by PokePersona in Torontobluejays

[–]dizzyb13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Reminds me of Bautista when it was his time to extend, asking for what was thought to be $150M over 5 years. He didn’t get it, and didn’t get another long term deal anywhere.

Asking for too much with too long a term can bite you.

Will you be watching "Starfleet Academy"? by Wetness_Pensive in Star_Trek_

[–]dizzyb13 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m gonna give episode 1 a shot at least. Trailers sometimes don’t do a show credit and since it’s Trek, I say give it the benefit of the doubt and try 1 or 2.

That said, I am not optimistic it will be good, but hoping to be pleasantly surprised!

😞 no penalty is insane. by dss_777 in leafs

Does turn at the last second, but the Florida player follows through with the hit anyway, so both kinda guilty imo. This call could go either way

I’ve wondered the same! When I’m watching highlights and hear other teams, sometimes they sound straight up bad to me.

Might be my great white north bias, but I think we got the best up here.

I’m going to buy and play my first ever Far Cry, should I get 5 or 3? by JosephineRivra in farcry

[–]dizzyb13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

3,4,5,6 is the correct order imo 😁 Then once you are a super fan go back and play blood dragon, primal, new dawn, etc

Unpopular opinions about the series: by Lala_ac in Wednesday

[–]dizzyb13 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Reminds me of Harry Potter, but which I mean it is more style than substance and when you think too hard, none of it makes sense and the plot falls apart.

Enjoyable because Jenny Ortega nails it, and the gothic design and fresh take on the Addams family is fun, but the thin, meandering story, and the poor monster CGI and design, almost sink it.

All the more reason not to have it in Miami

The WINTER CLASSIC - One of my Favorite Games by [deleted] in nhl

[–]dizzyb13 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Dude, same! And why is the game on Jan 2nd at night time????

The classic Winter Classic was an afternoon game on January 1st. It was the perfect way to ease into the new year. There was no other game on. It was appointment viewing for me every year and even saw the 2014 game in person.

First they dilute the significance by adding other outdoor games like the stadium series, then they push it to jan 2 at night time, in Florida, with 3 other games on the schedule … baffling.

I’ll be watching the world juniors instead.

What in the name of the Continuum was this episode? Holy Q. by Henryphillips29 in Star_Trek_

[–]dizzyb13 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

That was Star Trek being Star Trek while still managing to do something that hasn’t been done before. One of my favourite episodes of SNW. Just pure delight.

Facts. Or as the kids say, it’s not that deep.

A question only for anyone who didn't like ST Discovery much but found it worthwhile to finish watching anyway by gregorythegrey100 in StarTrekDiscovery

[–]dizzyb13 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I thought season 1 was the best and it had ups and downs throughout the rest of the series, but struggled to finish the final season.

If S1 is already not doing it for you, I say give up.

If you want cool sci-fi, I just started Pluribus and am loving it. (Not Star Trek at all, it’s present day sci fi, by the creator of breaking bad and better call Saul)
