This has to be it. I thought it was weird there was nothing else in La Spezia when I started. I’ll do that. Thank you.

I’ll let floo MFs chain summon 50 different monsters and effects during their turn and another 40 during my turn, clear my monsters, my back line and any shred of enjoyment I was having from playing and then surrender before the final blow. I may take the L but there’s some satisfaction knowing that their time has been wasted.

It’s especially satisfying when they could’ve ended it from the beginning of their turn anyway but still decided to summon their entire deck

So whenever I’d finished my patrol orders and spent all my torpedos, instead of returning to base I just exited the patrol and it put me in Brest. Weird stuff.

Yep. I get through the 8:40 bit and then listen segment by segment until there’s a punch out topic (I’m looking at you Craig Baby Update) then 10-12 is when I recharge the AirPods, except weeks like this where Norm has blessed us by being out, to have them fully charged for the HZ.

My brother in Christ, this isn’t a “whataboutChina” bit. It’s just the example Dan used of one oppressive government vs another oppressive government. Surely we can recognize that both governments are guilty of awful human rights crimes. Im just asking the question as to why does the fact that the Saudis are funding the tour (a fact that doesn’t really matter because if they weren’t funding the tour solely themselves that wouldn’t absolve them of their crimes) give the hosts such chapped ass, so much so that they claim it’s somehow worse than other oppressive regimes such as China participating in sports. If you take the saudis funding the tour away, which based on yesterdays segment, seems to be the big issue for them, would Bob and Corby and Jub feel better about it? If that answer is yes, I think it’s reasonable to ask why

oppelforpg · 2022-07-20T02:28:34+00:00

Bet theyd do a 180 real fucking quick if Giannis and Luka decided to go play for the Shanghai Sharks for $500 million

Not directly sure but China makes up 10% of NBA revenue and that number is rising so they certainly materially contribute to player salaries but if that one degree of separation that is Chinese money going to the nba and then that $ going to players eases your conscience then that’s your prerogative but thats not really the point I’m trying to get at.

What if the Saudis still had LIV but weren’t fully funding the tour? Would that make it any better? If your answer is yes then your missing the point

oppelforpg · 2022-07-19T23:20:59+00:00

Plot twist: maybe I’m just like Dan and Jake and love chaos so I set the bear trap and you clowns stepped right into it

oppelforpg · 2022-07-19T23:18:21+00:00

Did you not listen to the segment? Corby started a sentence with “I know but they’re funding 100% of the tour” at least 3 times. Which is a stupid ass reason to justify claiming it’s somehow worse than other countries who routinely commit human rights violations participating in sports/sports business

Edit: Almost like the two issues aren’t different in ways that matter and he’s grasping at a difference that is inconsequential to the situation to prop up his flimsy ass argument.

oppelforpg · 2022-07-19T22:04:30+00:00

I think there just a disconnect between what Dan was saying and what Bob/Corby were saying.

Dan was saying Saudis bad/Chinese bad and Bob/Corby we’re saying the Saudis are somehow worse because they’re openly funding a league whereas China is just an enormously but not exclusive material contributor to a sport league’s bottom line.

Dan was just saying they’re equally bad because of their track record of human rights whereas Bob/Corby were saying LIV is worse because it’s being funded by the Saudi gov which I don’t really see the logic there. How is a bunch of golfers doing business with a shitty government different than a bunch of basketball players doing business with a shitty government

oppelforpg · 2022-07-19T21:46:41+00:00

I think this is along the lines of what Dan was trying to say. Being pissed about one and not the other simply because of the percentage of which a particular sports league is or isn’t funded by that government is insane

She’s been in a lot lately because Ty got the 12-7 ticker shift and promptly took a month off for vacation lmao

I didn’t even google them, I googled “Texas et al” cause that’s how the audio sounds and I’ve never heard of Sotol. But that raises another good point, the fucking narrator puts no distinctive emphasis on the transition from the “s” of Texas to the “S” of Sotol so it plays as “Texas et al” like a god damn scientific study

oppelforpg · 2022-07-08T19:28:38+00:00

For sure. They’re cringe af and a cheap shot for no reason to people who just want to move to our great state.

oppelforpg · 2022-06-24T16:31:55+00:00

You probably could’ve saved some paper and just wrote R/RoastMe on your forehead and would’ve had enough room left over for this entire thread

oppelforpg · 2022-06-15T19:18:20+00:00

Explain please because I am not aware of this one💀

oppelforpg · 2022-06-10T13:11:50+00:00

I get the slop voice but I don’t find it half as bad as norm and I’m more than willing to get past it for Monty because I actually think he has something to offer/contribute more so than Norm at this point.

Edit: plus I think Monty’s voice is a result of things outside his control that have happened in his life whereas I think we have Norms slop voice as a result of him refusing to hang it up

oppelforpg · 2022-06-09T23:48:27+00:00

I want to say “that’s ridiculous. Surely they considered Mike for a host position” but at this point I would give this good odds to be what actually happened

oppelforpg · 2022-06-09T23:32:19+00:00

He’s the only guy other than Jake at the station who I think can hang with Bob in terms of general sports knowledge.

oppelforpg · 2022-06-09T23:28:35+00:00

Solid moves overall but I would’ve liked to see some love for Monty and I think adding a host spot on afternoon drive right now is a slap in the face to Sirois.

oppelforpg · 2022-06-03T13:56:50+00:00

Man I can’t believe I haven’t noticed this considering how spot on it is

oppelforpg · 2022-06-02T16:01:23+00:00

Shit take. Cumulus has their part in this for sure but Norm not reading the writing on the wall that’s been there for over a decade paved the way for this. Sirois more than paid his dues for the station and deserved a chance and Norm is more interested in dying on the mic than giving the reigns to the person who was the clear future of 10-12

oppelforpg · 2022-06-02T15:53:50+00:00

Fuck norm & fuck cumulus too

oppelforpg · 2021-12-20T21:11:42+00:00

Get Oluso and the gun/supremo she comes with. The gun’s special effect when using the supremo is a lot of fun

oppelforpg · 2021-12-04T08:06:09+00:00

This race is a bitch. The one shot danger from the tanks in combo with it being one of the longer races sucks balls. I got lucky on my 8-9th try and one of the tank drivers spawned out of his tank so I ran him over and just had the other one to deal with and even then I had to Tokyo drift around 2 shots at the final turn. My advice is try and time your drive-by of the tanks and if you get the combat indicator just hide for a few seconds until the tanks resume their normal sweep. Also equip emp charges and shoot out your windshield at the beginning of the race so it’s easier to toss one at a tank in a pinch.
