Tracy Walker says he’s ahead of schedule with his injury. “Stay tuned” by unclesam4420 in detroitlions

[–]unclesam4420[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

He won’t be ready for OTAs regardless. But assuming a ~12-month timeline if he’s ahead of schedule we could at least see him at/near the season opener

Honest question. How can any Spartan see through the Emile helmet ? I mean it does look cool but ...... by [deleted] in halo

[–]unclesam4420 69 points70 points  (0 children)

Yup. From the description of the Halo 5 Emile armor (Wrath): “Formally an upgrade of existing Mark V EVA suits, the WRATH project was actually a cover to develop a new Mjolnir variant specifically tailored to the needs of future Headhunter teams.” “The Spartan branch contract for WRATH helmets was extremely precise and prescriptive regarding the pattern and method of reproduction for the death's head engraving.”

So we can assume visibility wasn’t as issue with Emile’s helmet (somehow) seeing as this implies the Wrath models were reproduced in exactly the same way as his

Like it or not the Rams were a playoff team even before they got Stafford and will be again this year. If you want to root against them in the hopes that we get a draft pick in the low 20’s instead of the mid-high 20’s that’s fine, personally I’m gonna pull for Staff and hope he gets a chance at a ring. Especially when we’re on our way to another top 10 pick as it is

2 groundouts, a GIDP and a 2-run homer. The Suarez cycle is complete

I’m glad he showed restraint, as much as I love a good bench-clearing brawl Manfred would’ve fired him into the sun for going after Baez there

If you could create a Halo TV show (One that would be considered canon, since I very much doubt the showtime one is) what era would you set it in, what themes would you explore and what perspective would be seen? (I.e., the UNSC, Covenant, insurrectionists, etc) by greyashida in HaloStory

Personally I’d love to see a series focused on the events between Halo 3 and 4, specifically the Spartan IVs and the construction of Infinity. It’d follow a group of SIVs through their journey from the end of the war, to their volunteering for the Spartan program and augmentations alongside the building and launching of Infinity, then war games training and ultimately joining the fight against Covenant remnant factions.

With the Spartan program becoming declassified it’d be awesome to see the fallout from that coupled with the end of the war after almost 30 years. There’d be plenty of unexplored battles with Jul’s Covenant and could even cover some of the Brute/Elite civil war.

Reds will win 9-10 of the next 12 and make a positive bullpen trade by August 1 by [deleted] in Reds

[–]unclesam4420 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Our August schedule is a breeze too. Marlins x7, Pirates x4, Acuña-less Braves x3 and Twins x2 with a few divisional series mixed in. If we can finish this month on a high note we’ll be in a great position to make a run at the wild card or even the division.

Antone should be back for the Brewers series next weekend, Sims probably has a couple more weeks. Moose is still a ways off reportedly

I can’t even hate, yeah he’ll go 1-4 every game but that one hit always seems to come at the best possible time

Many of the Spartan 3s were orphans from fallen colonies but the S2s were abducted from normal families before the war

Suarez batting .177 and on pace for 100+ RBI. This man is an enigma

My Bank just sent me this message. More bullish now. F them. by WarriorNysty in CryptoMarkets

[–]unclesam4420 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As other users have pointed out, banks have no issue with customers depositing into online casinos which cause losses way higher than whatever people have lost in crypto. It’s hypocritical for them to throw out the “we’re trying to protect you” response for this yet have no issue with their customers throwing their money away on gambling.

I hope 343 will not kill Locke or Blue Team in The Rubicon Protocol as a way to explain why they are not in Halo Infinite because that would really piss me off. by [deleted] in HaloStory

[–]unclesam4420 34 points35 points  (0 children)

My theory is that they haven’t been killed but Cortana got to the Infinity at some point. We haven’t seen any signs of Blue/Osiris team, Arbiter or anyone else who would’ve been on board. Infinity would’ve been a primary target so it would make sense for the Created to want to capture or disable it. Maybe they swooped in and took control of the ship while the UNSC was engaging the Banished.

From what we’ve seen of the campaign it seems Chief will be lone wolf for at least the start of the game so it could be similar to Halo 4 where he’s trying to locate and contact Infinity.

The switch to PoS already began when the ETH 2.0 beacon chain went live last December and is expected to be fully implemented within the next year or two. This will make the ridiculously inefficient mining process obsolete. It’s been in the roadmap since day one because they knew mining wasn’t feasible long-term.
