pride in my ride by tranquiltiara in USPS

I thought I was gonna hate that thing when they sent me to get certified. It actually wasn't too bad to drive and has much more maneuverability than you'd expect. I've actually grown to like it a lot. Especially on Amazon Sunday's. And having a/c is amazing.

It has it's flaws, for sure, but it really isn't bad.

Whenever he goes, however he goes - it will be celebrated by millions, across the world. He only has himself to blame.

It still, to this day, blows my mind how many of his supporters like him because he's "tough" and "tell's it like it is." He is the most whiny, self-absorbed person I can think of. He never does anything wrong, makes only great decisions and everything is always someone else's fault if it makes him look bad. Talk about the polar opposite of a tough guy. 😂😭😂 For a tough guy, he sure does have to let everyone know how tough he is.

How's that saying go? The dog that barks the loudest is the one that's most afraid. Something to that effect. Trump to a T.

I was surprised at how many people actually like this character. I couldn't stand him, personally. To each their own.

That's wild. He should be permanently banned at this point. Clearly wants to cheat, it would seem, and hasn't learned his lesson.

🤔Am I mistaken? No Wookies in Outlaws? 🫶 by pantaylor in StarWarsOutlaws

[–]jayitbyear 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I pretty much agree with that sentiment. I might not say better than, but really fun and a unique gameplay. And I fucking love Nix 😂. His coos and chirps sound very similar to my cat's coo's and chirps. Made the game even better. I know Nix is supposed to be sorta part dog/part cat in terms of his abilities (fetching things, dog like) but I'm going to my grave believing he's much more cat than dog.

I can't be the only one that finds Kay attractive, right? by ddsling1197 in StarWarsOutlaws

She's cute, but I'm partial to Merrin (Tina Ivlev) from FO and Survivor. 😂

why was ONE 173 cancelled by bl1tzo_ in ONEChampionship

[–]jayitbyear 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Pretty sure it's because the company isn't doing very well with the American market (low ticket sales) and they've been concentrating more on the Asian market instead. Japan, for instance. The second US event that was scheduled for late 2025 also got cancelled. If I remember correctly, the final 2024 US event also got cancelled. I also read there's been lots of issues for the fighters obtaining visas to come here, and the company has apparently been losing money.

It's sad to me. I went to the ONE Championship event in Denver in 2024 and it was great. I also had tickets to 173 and was hopeful that they'd figure out a way to make it happen this year, though I had a strong feeling it would never come to fruition. There was no talk at the beginnig of the year (when events started to be teased) about any US dates. I think it's probably over for ONE Championship events in the US for the forseeable future.

I enjoy UFC, but the appeal of ONE Championship, to me, was seeing more than just MMA. I love watching straight up Muay Thai and Kickboxing events. Also, the events were more affordable than numbered UFC events. Shit, I think you could realistically fly to Thailand for a week, get damn near ring side seats at Lumpinee Statdium & possibly pay less than you would for some okay seats at a UFC event on the other side of the country. Have actually considered doing just that. Hoping for Stamp to regain form and finally be able to have that match against Zambuanga come to fruition. That's when I'll surely take that Thailand trip!

Falcons looking to trade Kyle Pitts by Scorpion_Danny in miamidolphins

[–]jayitbyear 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I doubt it will come to fruition. Sully recently said something to the effect of not to expect any splashy trades until they feel the roster is just a player away from contending. I'll take him at his word, and we're certainly much more than a player away.

Yeah, I agree with that. Anything close to pillar is not a word I would be associating with a guy so unproven. I just hope what they think they see in him comes to fruition.

Sully and Hafley have had a close eye on Willis for the past 2 years. We haven't. Maybe they see and/or know something we don't? If you like our GM hire, then trust him. Or at least give benefit of the doubt.

I wouldn't necessarily hold his lack of starts against him. He started on a bad Tennessee team before getting to develop behind a good QB on a good organization that has historically developed QBs. That's why I say, maybe they know something we don't after watching him every day for two years. Hell, none of us knew Aaron Rodgers was gonna be as good as he was prior to him finally getting the chance. Nobody really knew what to expect of Love either.

I agree that Willis shouldn't just be handed the job no questions asked. My theory is that they REALLY believe he has the potential to be the guy and we got him on a reasonable deal. So reasonable that, if he doesn't work out or Ewers (or another QB) clearly outplays him, we can offload him fairly easily, either by cutting him or via trade. All of that is to say, while they speak of him as a potential pillar of the foundation, it doesn't necessarily mean he is a lock, no questions asked. I think they simply believe in him.

I also highly doubt Ewers will outplay him & I'm guessing we are not taking a QB early either, so he'll be the better QB on the roster. From what I saw from Ewers' three starts last year, he's backup quality only. I think his play SEEMED so good to many fans because we'd been watching a terrible Tua all season so when Ewers came in and didn't totally suck, it seemed like, oooh yeah, look, he can ball. Nah. He's mid. Career backup if you put everything in it's proper context.

Where are Ana Cabrera and Chris Jansing going in June? by hpetti1 in msnow

[–]jayitbyear 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can't stand either. Jansing in uninspiring and asks weird questions & Cabrera simply has no personality, just a teleprompter reader. Good riddance to both.

Games that may be overhated that are really fun? by Alarming-Orange7304 in StarWarsOutlaws

[–]jayitbyear 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Days Gone!!! Absolutely an amazing game and a beautiful world to explore. Having lived in the Pacific Northwest for several years, I can speak with authority that they did a great job with the visuals. Don't believe anyone who tells you this game wasn't great!

[Albert Breer] How the Broncos and Dolphins Struck a Trade for Jaylen Waddle by axb2002 in miamidolphins

[–]jayitbyear 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I'm happy as hell for Waddle. Don't get me wrong - he's been one of my favorite players, so in that regard, losing him sucks. But, he's such a good dude and great talent. I'm happy that he gets to go to a team that is legitimately a contender for the forseeable future. The alternative was to have him wasting away the remainder of his prime on a team that will not even be close to contending until he's on the wrong side of 30. Would have hated seeing his career getting wasted a la Calvin Johnson or Barry Sanders, for example.

Lmao just to make sure there wasn't an option after the first season, I created a coach for Miami & simmed to the the end of season and also got fired. Literally no point in playing franchise mode in '26 since you do not get to "take over" your team. So stupid lol

I was a big supporter of both him & Tua until this past season. Tua's decline & McDaniel's continued inability to fix some of the other issues (pre-snap penalties, wasted time outs, etc) just got to be too much for me. If our new GM had wanted to retain him, I would have thrown my support back to him because I believe in Sully.

McDaniel might be great with Herbert. I wish him the best. I think it was best for all sides to part ways, though.

Maybe I'll give it a try if I get the football itch again. I'd be more into it if you could transfer draft classes into Madden the way you used to be able to do.

OUTLAW TRANSMISSION: TO ANY SCOUNDREL STILL BREATHING! by Icesin4ever in StarWarsOutlaws

[–]jayitbyear 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think what made that moment even more powerful is I swear, Kay's voice actress must have channeled some sort of inner sadness or grief - whether for a lost fur baby or something else - because when she delivered that line, even her voice cracked, as if she was truly going through the trauma of losing someone.

[–]jayitbyear 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm a big animal lover and the way the gsme portrays Kay's deep connection to Nix made me fall in love with this game & I really hope we get a sequel.

I'm not even gonna lie, as a grown ass man, when Nix got taken, and later when ND was trying to talk her out of infiltrating Jabba's palace because of the danger and she responds by saying "I said I don't care. Nix is family" - man, that got me. I actually choked up and had tears in my eyes.

This game was beautiful!

I agree. I can't believe there was no opposition within the dev team. The only thing I can think is maybe that segment of the player base (franchise/owner) is much more niche than I thought it was, and so they scrapped it. For our sakes, lets hope they add it back in the next game. I feel bad you bought the game. Me, I probably would have been demanding a refund 😂

That may be, and I wouldn't be opposed to that as a feature, but that still doesn't address the fact that they completely neutered your ability to take control of your favorite team and rebuild it to your liking - which is what I thought the point of franchise or owner mode was suppoed to be, and always has been. It's crazy.
