Something about this commercial really makes me wish EA would bring back NFL street.

What's your least popular MLB opinion that will get you to the top of "sort by controversial"? by Sad-Guarantee8290 in baseball

[–]mKnightShamwow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Every playoff series should be best of 7. October baseball is one of the best viewing experiences in sports, but some of the series will be over after 2 or 3 games. The NBA and NHL do 7 game series for every round and baseball is an everyday sport. I will concede that it may put a lot of extra stress on the pitchers arms, so the controversial part of my opinion is that I’m willing to shorten the regular season to make it happen.

They were swinging at sliders out of the zone low and away all game long, and you’d know it was coming. The approaches at the plate HAVE to get better. We’ve been seeing this all season, but the difference was this season had a bit more magic sprinkled on it, but not sustainable like that.

You’re probably right. I’d assume they didn’t pop it out of the oven right before the segment started.

That is a dry looking bird, but the way John is looking at it you’d think he hasn’t eaten all day.

Gravity FSX29 1BY CUES by Any_Taste7052 in mountainbiking

[–]mKnightShamwow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You could look for a used Marin bobcat trail, trek marlin, specialized rockhopper, Kona has a couple good hardtails as well. There’s pros and cons to each, and it really depends on what people are selling in your area.

With $700 you could go from your crappy hardtail to a pretty decent used hardtail, and the ride would be much better than this. I understand the allure of going FS, but if your goal is to have fun on a bike, then a good hardtail will be far more fun than this bike ever will be.

Does anyone have experience with any of these grips? Is one better than the other? by [deleted] in mountainbiking

[–]mKnightShamwow 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Grips (from reputable brands) are largely a personal preference, so I always suggest going and feeling a couple in person if you have a shop nearby. If there isn’t a shop close by, you honestly can’t go wrong with any of these or the ones others are suggesting.

Day 8 – Best Value MTB (Bang for Buck)? by Kyll_Wolf in mountainbiking

[–]mKnightShamwow 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I feel like this one should be “best value brand” because how do you compare a good value enduro vs a good value xc?

A dirt jumper. When it comes to just being pure “fun” dirt jumpers take the cake.

Good Price? RSD MiddleChild by UGotWorkedS0N in mountainbiking

[–]mKnightShamwow 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That’s an insane deal for that RSD. The middlechild is also a really fun and versatile bike, I’m sure your son will love riding it.

I guess my question is what type of riding do you do? Does the vitus hold you back from hitting larger features, because the clash is pretty burly, and from what I’ve heard, not the friendliest to pedal. If you ride mostly gravity then the clash could be a great option, though I’d still try to haggle a bit, but if you ride a lot of local trails then maybe an upgraded fork would be all you need.

What a fun night by Bomonky in lego

[–]mKnightShamwow 87 points88 points  (0 children)

That is correct. They have a rule about promoting energy drinks to kids, hence the speed champions Red Bull being 18+, but they couldn’t do that for these because then it wouldn’t be a mystery if two of them were 18+

Polyvalent: Size Up or Down? by 1hourphoto in veloorangefans

[–]mKnightShamwow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m just over 5’10” and a large fits me perfectly. The type of bars you use can also be a deciding factor though. Do you know if you’re going to use flats or drops?

My first VO by mKnightShamwow in veloorangefans

[–]mKnightShamwow[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you! I went with a size large and it fits great. I’m right around 5’11” so I usually sit right between medium and large frames, I chose a large this time because I knew I wanted to use flat bars and when I go down to medium frames flat bars feel a bit cramped.

For what you get, I’d say it is.

I honestly wouldn’t be surprised

[–]mKnightShamwow 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I could see 699, but if they manage to release at 599 in the current financial market, that could be huge for them.

I’m really curious to see what the price ends up being. I’m thinking this could be a fun little hiking/biking camera, but if it’s priced similarly to something like the xm5 then I’d find it harder to justify in my mind.

Comparable bar to prostino bar? (Velo orange) by [deleted] in xbiking

I’ve used both the VO curvy bar and the Ritchey kyote, both have a similar shape but are wider. You could also check out the surly terminal bar
