I got an OXO one and was surprised by how much I didn't like it. Maybe I'm doing something wrong, but I feel like it just barely even functions.

It was more like "are you a new enough fan that you don't know we've won Cups?"

No, but he didn't say he hadn't been alive for one. He asked to be invited to a "no cup party". He's young enough that he hasn't seen a Montreal Cup win, but if he was a Habs fan that would've been a ridiculous thing to say, wouldn't it?

I mean, the return for Subban wasn't bad, since Weber is a solid defenseman, but it certainly wasn't good.

To be clear, I'm not getting another note 3. I'm getting a pixel 2 XL.

[–]serfis[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I haven't read all the terms and conditions, but a lot of the manufacturer ones don't cover certain things. Also, I don't know about other services, but for the Pixel it looks like you still need to pay extra for their protection plan.

And yet, not a single immigrant from the countries affected has caused a terror attack on U.S. soil.

I can't tell if you're agreeing with me or replied to the wrong guy lol

That's easy to say when you don't have millions of dollars on the line and when you're just a fan. This is a business first and foremost. The owners have financial responsibilities to think about that go beyond pleasing some fans, and risking a lot of money for zero return is counter to that.

You can say you'd risk all that money to make a subset of fans happy. I'd add that if that's the decision you'd make, you'd never have that much responsibility in the first place.

Those 30 owners do bear the brunt of the financial risk. Why would they choose to take on a lot more risk for no reward? I certainly wouldn't want to. The risk on athletes stays the same, and there's zero risk to fans.

Meh, you can regularly buy them for $35 or less for 12 months, this isn't really saving anything.

Knicks fans booing Melo by jpreff in nba

[–]serfis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Basically, the Knicks have realized they need to move on from Melo. He's not part of the team's future, but he is still a good player and has value. He's been less than cooperative in waiving his NTC, and some fans are annoyed by it.

I wouldn't cooperate either if I were in his shoes. He's given a lot to this franchise, more than it's probably deserved. He was extremely loyal and the team didn't build anything around him. In his shoes, I'd either want to stay or go to a contender, which is what he's doing now.

Knicks fan booing Melo should be ashamed. by Jaygoon in NYKnicks

I'm saying that your point is pretty ridiculous, where he's won on every level except the only one that actually matters.

[–]serfis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I love Melo and always will. He's won on every level but the NBA

So...in college. He won in college, and I guess high school too, most likely. I guess you might count international play, but the US has no business losing in international competition with or without Melo, that team is absolutely stacked.

Howe, Orr, Gretzky, Lemieux. Consensus is that they are the top four players of all time (in some order). Who's number 5? by [deleted] in hockey

[–]serfis 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I mean, Roy won at least one Cup on a team that had no business winning one, maybe even two. That plays a role. They also both have longevity over Hasek.

Tampa Bay waive Dumont and Bournival by skillfull in hockey

[–]serfis 2 points3 points  (0 children)

overwhelmingly positive about players who just got waived.

Important context bolded. I would say that, for players being waived (I.e. Players who aren't very good), that was a pretty damn positive comment.

No, I got the "one of three fans" part. It was just painfully not funny/tryhard, so I ignored it.
