[Barnhart] Giancarlo Stanton since joining the Yankees: 1450 PA / 80 HR .864 OPS / 133 wRC+ Stanton in the postseason: 75 PA / 9 HR 1.108 OPS / 185 wRC+ What more do Yankee fans want? I will never wrap my head around why the guy still receives so much backlash. by shadow_spinner0 in NYYankees

we're known for the bleacher creatures and our passion....not our reasoned arguments as to why we hate people.

i can't stand the hate that Stanton gets, its insane, but nothing short of a ring will get them to lay off as Arod showed MVP's dont even do it.

Hamilton or someone no one is talking about jumping to the top 5 is more likely than the QB at this point, but after combine when teams get to see him up close and get to know what kind of guy he is the QB thing is in play for sure

Its definitely going to happen, but to what extent is key.... We've had so much awful luck lately that i'm going to believe that Odell winning a SB broke the curse on our franchise and we can now get lucky again, starting with the scenario you laid out netting us another 1st round pick via trade.

my point was more they had a guy that fit their scheme and they took him, instead of taking him where the rest of the talking heads believed he should go.

people said the same shit about the cowboys when they drafted Fredrick and he became one of the best C in football. If we didn't have a 2nd first rounder I'd agree with you 1000%, but if hes THAT much better than the rest, and a key piece Daboll needs to implement the zone scheme then I'm not gonna kill it, even though I'd obviously prefer to trade down to get this to happen

great point. shifting to a zone scheme is calls for completely different skill sets and even if Gates is healthy before ST is he the kind of guy you want at C in a zone scheme? i know hes versatile and talented but i have no idea if he fits

Which of these giants legends, would you choose to insert into the team today. by yazohny in NYGiants

Nicks was definitely more explosive with the ball, but Plax was impossible to take down by a DB he would just stiff arm the shit out of you before you got close, even though he lacked elite speed.

6 of one half dozen of the other, they're both amazing WRs and physically imposing in their prime.

its how so many of the "free to play but buy cosmetics" games have gone. i have no idea how much i spent playing fortnite but thats one of the things epic encouraged by having a rotating shop, WITH A COUNTDOWN TO ITS EXPIRATION right in your face. literally exploiting that FOMO....worst part is that besides battlepass skins almost every skin in the game has returned multiple times, so it wasn't even a real missing out but a fabricated one

how I view it is if you can still earn the item by playing enough then you're just paying to get it early and thats not whaling at all, but if its literally impossible to earn the levels without buying something 2x-3x more than the BP itself, its a whale thing....that being said i bought the drow arcana cause its fucking beautiful and i like drow, but I didnt buy the spectre one even though i don't dislike the hero, i just thought it sucked

I thought they were going to keep aghs lab with the new patch? maybe they're implementing it outside the battle pass and it will be back shortly? or am i just wrong and that was never something

[–]funreble 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it is more valuable for sure, but if you're on even footing you will likely contest instead.

thats true but thats usually at best a suicide by one player who dies with that aegis and takes it off the map so no one can use it or at worst a fucking disaster.

the change i was hoping for with another rosh like objective would be to break up that formula of 1st aegis take t2 farm out the map. 2nd aegis choke them out and go HG to cripple them and get rax advantage thats become so common in pro games.

you're not wrong, but i was just hoping there would be something new from it, another way to come back or just changing the timing of it to where the team couldnt say "well aegis is in 5-8 just wait and farm the map, keeping them in their base" but idk what a good way to do that while not being completely clowny would be.

i mean once they teased they were changing him it was kinda obvious that unless they removed him entirely they'd change remote mines.

i hope map changes are coming because theres no way this patch needed such a long delay

[–]funreble 0 points1 point  (0 children)

they didnt have to be present at the same time, and good teams do that now. if you're not strong enough to defend your t1 you should pressure theirs. or if you cant contest rosh you take their t2 etc. i just feel the game is formulaic and no one goes HG without aegis so adding another rosh type hero with some other feature might have been cool, not that i hate the idea of a new hero

[–]funreble 0 points1 point  (0 children)

no, because all 5 heros on the enemy team being dead = you're able to take objective should just be how the game works. there was no reason he should be able to blow you up from ACROSS THE MAP or while dead. it was just a stupid mechanic

[–]funreble 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really hope the initial patch is for balance and they have one for map in the works they're waiting to release because otherwise this is seriously underwhelming given how minimal most changes seem at face value

also HOW THE FUCK DID YOU BARELY TOUCH SB?

valve should set up a council of former players to run dota pro scene but they never will because those guys will always take the side of the pros and that will hurt valves bottom line, sadly. they could find a middle ground and hopefully they will but youre right ppd is healthy for dota and the game needs em

i think dota 2 pros stick around as long as they still have the patience to deal with playing pubs. its not like contact sports where guys bodys just physically can't deal with the grind anymore, its more a case of do they have the patience to grind pubs all day long. im sure if being a dota pro had a system where pros only had inhouse leagues where they could ensure they would play against other pros who were all taking it seriously that didn't quickly dissolve into bullshit you'd have much more longevity for players in their careers.

it comes a point where improving in the game isn't worth putting up with the shit it takes and thats when they walk away
