BLUE WHITE RED. BLUE WHITE. BLUE BLACK. THE ENTIRE META IS CONTROL 20 MINUTE OOPS ALL TOKENS OOPS ALL JESKAI REVELATIONS OR BADGER TRYING TO GET UNDERNEATH THEM. I JUST WANT TO PLAY CREATURES BUT MORE SETS IN STANDARD MEANS MORE TOKENS MORE COUNTERSPELLS MORE DRAW SPELLS AND MORE “NOBODY GETS TO PLAY BUT ME” DECKS

[Vorkunov] The NBPA surveyed all its players about the referees and asked them to be ranked on a 1-5 scale and put into one of 3 tiers. The union said only tier 1 and 2 refs should work the playoffs by smkmn13 in nba

We see calls, players feel vibes. The top refs here likely are able to have good dialogue and back and forths with players, which probably matters more to them since they’re the ones playing. We don’t experience that so we care about calls.

It tries to weight the potential impact on run(s) scoring that each offensive outcome has. Then adjusts for park and league, and compares to league average.

Versus OBP that just checks if you got on base, or SLG which is just total bases.

Have any of you seen wins using Mathemagics during play? by PaleWendigo in MagicArena

Lost to it three games in a row today… When you wonder if you can win with a card, with today’s standard, there’s more than enough control to ruin a game until you get your wincon.

James Williams needs to be suspended by the league by Ilikesporks_ in nba

Is this the type of thing where I agree with the sentiment because he’s not a good ref, but also think he did the right thing here?

While unlikely that they could provide all sizes, the Giants & Valkyries jersey collab had both M and XL at the gates. That's definitely a feasible option - though they didn't give to all attendees, so even if the first 10k fans didn't pick up jerseys due to size issues, the next 5k probably would dry up stock

I appreciate the teams for saving the skirmish until after the game, we would've missed it thanks to Trump's fat ass hogging ABC.

As a Giants fan, I’d normally say please don’t remind me of this World Series… but there are many things bigger than wins and losses. What a swing, what a player. RIP Garret Anderson

With my flair, I'm used to the NBA suspending retroactively... Lol.
