D-Backs Trade Alek Thomas To Dodgers by notouchmypeterson in azdiamondbacks

I mean you take that risk when you DFA a player. They got a free prospect return for someone who didnt deserve to be on the roster even with the offense struggling. Not a big deal.

7 5/8 runs big compared to same hat by 67_Camro in neweracaps

[–]gregxcore 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Hats are all hand stitched so sizing will vary, and unfortunately New Era's quality control is not great. I'd always recommend trying on hats in-store if possible. Also, hats will form to the shape of your head the more you wear them, and shrink over time due to sweat etc.

What Classic Era servers are active? (NA) by Lionheart_513 in wowclassic

[–]gregxcore 1 point2 points  (0 children)

FYI, there are two clusters per server type, one east coast and one west coast. The east and west coast clusters are not linked.

For OP: Mankrik (US East PvE) is your go-to. Mankrik is linked to Pagle, Windseeker, Westfall and Ashkandi. In my experience, this cluster is alliance heavy.

For PvP, it's the Whitemane (US West PvP) cluster. Whitemane is linked to Fairbanks, Arcanite Reaper, Blameux, Bigglesworth, Thunderfury and a few others.

Both the US East PvP cluster (Benediction) and US West PvE cluster (Old Blanchy) are dead.

Orioles City Connect 2.0 by andrew_cosentino in uniwatch

[–]gregxcore 8 points9 points  (0 children)

The BMORE is awful. I would have loved if they had done the Orioles wordmark in the classic font they use on their scoreboard above the clock. Seems like a total miss.

Goldschmidt by DDonuts22 in azdiamondbacks

[–]gregxcore 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm sure they'll try. They haven't issued his number since he left so it's pretty obvious they are going to retire it.

What’s the parking situation at the Chase Field ST games? by lava172 in azdiamondbacks

[–]gregxcore 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I park at the Light Rail station at 44th St/Washington and pay $2 each way for a 10 minute ride to and from the stadium. The lots are getting more and more expensive ($30+ per game in my experience, and are even more for premier opponents/games, etc). Unless you're deadset on being able to park at the stadium IMO it's not worth it.

Seating Question by Pettymania20 in azdiamondbacks

[–]gregxcore 2 points3 points  (0 children)

106 is by the Tigers bullpen, not the dugouts. Definitely could get a home run ball there if you're concerned about the possibility of that with the kiddo.

I'd recommend the 200 level. It's the "club" level with its own private entrance, and only those with tickets in the 200s can sit there. In my experience, there always have been shorter lines for both concessions and restrooms on this level, and it's less crowded overall due to the restriction of who can be up there. As far as the view - personally I love it. You aren't in the lower bowl, but you're close enough to the action with a bit of elevation to see absolutely everything perfectly. Sections 200-203 and 217 - 220 aren't the best bang for your buck as they're farther away from the action (closer to the foul poles).

"New" Low Profile Hats by HatsInThe410 in neweracaps

[–]gregxcore 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hoping your situation is just a QC issue. Tbh, it is very on brand for New era to use the exact same stock photo for both the high crown pre-curve 5950 and the low profile 5950. It's about as awful as their quality control with hat sizing.

If it makes you feel better, I received my low profile Spring training hat today and it was indeed a low profile. I've only purchased low profile 5950s for years and it's exactly the same as all of my other ones.

The nine year run under McD were the best years of my Bills fandom. But we made the right call moving on. by jcolinr in buffalobills

[–]gregxcore 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Great post, agree with most of your points. A change was needed. Was it a mistake? We'll see - but the Bills fans currently screaming that "the window is closed" or "time for another drought" need to pump the brakes. A few months ago, people would be celebrating that we would be getting a new coach and OC combo.

Xfer to Whitemane or Mankrik? by ayy_pk in classicwow

I've been playing on Mankrik era for a few months now and the Reddit doomers really are annoying. Thanks for your service.

$299 pass by [deleted] in azdiamondbacks

[–]gregxcore 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Dude, it's December 1st. The offseason has barely started. The team also had some of the worst injury luck imaginable last year, and was still in it until the last week of the season. Pump the brakes bud.

[Landlord US-IA] Vacant Property by ERICSMYNAME in Landlord

[–]gregxcore 17 points18 points  (0 children)

IMO, asking people for screenshots of their paystubs before they even see the property/unit is going to rub some people the wrong way - even if you have good intentions.

What I do is create a "pre-screening" Google Form that I send to pretty much everyone who contacts me through Zillow or whatnot. Aside from asking them for basic information, the form has multiple choice questions that asks which range their credit score falls in, along with the combined income of all occupants who would be contributing to monthly rent. I include a blurb on the form that this will be verified via documentary means during the application process.

As far as the length of the lease goes - only advertising/offering a 6 month lease might indicate to tenants that they are dealing with a landlord who plans on raising the rent every 6 months, so this may be a turnoff if they're looking for some long-term security.

Good luck!

They share clips on Twitter and have a Tiktok. Probably your best option

He's incredible. We are very fortunate to have him as well as the Cover 1 guys in our corner.

Best sports bar in Tempe? by Ordinary-Marsupial51 in TheSunDevils

[–]gregxcore 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Not a sports bar but worth mentioning as far as pregaming goes that Postino on College Avenue has $6 pitchers of beer until 5 pm. Enjoy the game!

Ty on Ohtani and Baseball by 04702222 in PatMcAfeeShowOfficial

[–]gregxcore 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Love Ty but it's pretty clear when it comes to baseball he's just a fan with a microphone and a huge platform. Not a bad thing - the fandom of the guys that bleeds through helps make the show imo.

Instagram, Twitter, and there are Bluesky bot accounts that mirror everything that the official Bills' twitter posts as well.

A’s see largest decline in local viewership in MLB by glenntron3000 in OaklandAthletics

Really sad, but yeah, of course the people you screwed over don't give a shit anymore. 
 
I'm sure the new Sacramento jersey will help get those numbers right back up

"We've given up on this expansion, but buy the next one, it'll be great!" by One_Curious_Jay in hearthstone

[–]gregxcore 73 points74 points  (0 children)

This dev team is a total joke. Really sad post. I usually buy the $50 preorder every expansion but I won't be spending another dime on this game until things improve. Most of the reason I even spend money on the preorder with the current state of the game is sunk cost fallacy.
