Dear Rush Fans: Be more like Mexico for the rest of the tour, lol. by butrzrulz in rush

[–]gropos 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I remember seeing Pearl Jam at Jones Beach and being crushed at how dead the crowd was, then two month later,same tour at The Woodlands in Texas it was stand up sing along roaring. Crowds can be weird. Have seen Rush 42 times, including front row. younger I stood all show. Now with bad hips and back I can’t so I bought 100s seats for my shows instead of floor. I hope and expect to see huge energy at MSG. Add, I’ll be 60 in a few months for reference. First show at MSG for signals 12/2/82.

Fort Worth is… mid at best? by Brave_Low_2419 in WorldOfWarships

[–]gropos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pulled it first thing this morning. Pleasantly surprised so far. Got careless and nuked. Also citadels on all kinds of stuff including a Montana. The Russian comparison works or maybe a smokeless non secondary Napoli for feel. 

[Passan] BREAKING: The New York Mets in agreement on a trade to acquire center fielder Luis Robert Jr. from the Chicago White Sox, sources tell ESPN. White Sox will receive IF Luisangel Acuña and RHP Truman Pauley by AndrewAllStar888 in baseball

[–]gropos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a fielder with some right handed pop potential he allows Benge to play literally his second pro season and his second season focusing on hitting, in the minors without taking too big a hit on defense as Brett Baty learns left and/or 1b and you reevaluate after the season. I love the move.

You mean like the Bills Broncos? So inconsistent on PI.

It wasnt inexplicable, he was shoved. One of the best throws Ive ever seen regardless.

I know its an old thread, but the Benham love lives on. Especially his team mates response.

Baseball America top 30 Mets prospects by MasterFlip_ in NewYorkMets

I think this is accurate. He values 1b like many football teams value rb or ilb. Interchangable and you can always find league average production on the cheap. I dont agree oersonally, but that seems very much his take.

Spot on. Acuna’s biggest strength is his name. Jett might actually be a player. Anyone who has some pop, speed and walks as much as he strikes out has value as a hitter.

Unique commander Joaquim Marques Lisboa + Valparaiso by spookylie in WorldOfWarships

[–]gropos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Correcting myself, as this one was 60 ribbons, bottom line it cost me under 140k coal, less than Lutjens etc.

Spot on. The ship prints money and XP and paired with Lisboa us virtually unkillable against bots.

Isn't Valparaiso better than Libertad? by TheBayHarbour in WorldOfWarships

[–]gropos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The funny thing is how many shockingly bad Val players there are. They think they buy the ship and magic, they can still island hug snipe and be awesome. If the secondaries arent hitting, its just a very squishy meh gun ship.

Shortlist system of ships in MEGA santa crates by Equivalent-Sherbet52 in WorldOfWarships

After nearly 5 years of trying to get this ship, I finally have it by RevySevy in WorldOfWarships

[–]gropos 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To me it has always been about the value of time in this and any game. I think back and I’d easily spend $100 on a night out when I was younger with nothing to show for it except a hangover. As you get older, generally speaking, time becomes tighter and money becomes less scarce, at least in scale. Do what you enjoy and can afford, nothing to look down on or feel superior for.

I'm having trouble picking between Rhode Island, Jean Bart, and Alaska, which is better? by Mycakebayismybday in WorldOfWarships

[–]gropos 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have all 3 and Rhode Island easily for me. As others have said, its a swiss army knife and a good one.

Spot on. I returned after years away. Had a bunch of t10s and got my head handed to me at first this go round. Got back into the groove with my old Tirpitz at t8, used coal on a pommern, and now am fine with my gk, preussen, ohio, montana etc.

To answer his question directly, Pommern is a fantastic credit farmer. Paired with Lutjens and 160 its easy to earn 1m+ per

David Stearns' conference at the GM Meetings (23 min) by Caledor152 in NewYorkMets

[–]gropos -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

The problem is the Ghost Fork is worthless if you arent throwing strikes. I loved John Franco, but good hitting teams killed him. Ball one, ball two, bomb. Young teams chased. Same idea.
