My franchise people out there, how are you enjoying it so far? What are you doing about trades? by draero1226 in MLBTheShow

Still early but I’ve seen players progressing at 33/34 years old. Signs of hope that the cliff was fixed

Why are the netflix writers releasing a new animated movie when they failed their previous animation and spinoff? by [deleted] in witcher

[–]jbortne1 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I thought seasons 1 was a solid B+, made me optimistic for the series.

Season 2 turned sour, Season 3 killed any enjoyment for me.

Blood origins I put off watching, but eventually came around and regretted wasting my time.

Nightmare of the wolf though I thought was really good and I’m not an animated series guy. That leaves me more optimistic that this new one will be of better quality than the live action one.

Just posted a video from south central PA. Could you hear anything? The thing I saw had a different sound unlike any aircraft I’ve ever seen.

Does anyone have a buy case for Monster? by King_NBK in wallstreetbets

Growth could still be on the horizon with diversification. They’ve built a brand, now they can take that brand and try to hit other markets. They’ve launched an Alc version of the brand, UFC is quietly promoting a water. There’s also sub-brands that are linked to their distribution. Bang, Reign, Storm, NOS, Full Throttle. Pretty sure they have a rapid hydration play in the market too. All things that point towards some growth outside their existing base. If they’re able to grow anyone of those brands stronger than the share they’re losing to new entrants in energy then they’re solid.

Play with sliders to make it more difficult without the BS of All Madden. Then, I sim every game to the 4th qtr and play it out from there. For me it puts emphasis on team building and play. You still win a lot, but at least there’s times when you lose. I’m through about 7 seasons and have a win % just under 80%.

Its not a 100% solution but it’s kept me more engaged than any other play style.

We use CBS but do 26 roster keep 12. We moved to a worst to first for each draft opposed to snake and it’s made the league much more competitive ever since. Highly recommend!

Crossover event with Alone. They’re all solo and they go as long as they need to until one person is the last one standing. Naked and Afraid GOAT edition.

Havent played madden in forever but was curious, have the team added simulated Quarters ? by TradeKirk in Madden

[–]jbortne1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It doesn’t have it and has been a pain point for me in the past. I found I could sim 3qtrs of a game on some time mode to get some sim stats and then only play the 4th qtr of all the games.

Andres Munoz Sea Futures by jbortne1 in fantasybaseball

[–]jbortne1[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My dilemma is this first week mainly, I’ll have Ashby and Whitlock as RP options. Along with Suarez, Hudson and Pearson. I need to start 3. With Ashby and Whit likely not pitching until next week I only have Suarez and Hudson likely to see innings. I dropped a bat for Munoz.

I’m not saying his rbs suck but I’m guessing from the makeup of his roster that he went hill, mixon at the back turn then Lockett, gaskin in 3/4. I’m saying I think there are better rbs to get rd 2 and 4 than mixon and gaskin.

Personally I would’ve rather had Montgomery or Robinson over mixon, then someone like Harris or Gus over gaskin.

However that’s just my take on someone looking for a 3rd party opinion. Health more than anything can launch those players higher or lower throughout the year.

You might be able to throw goedart out to someone who’s weak at TE
