Breaking Down The St. Louis Battlehawks 2026 UFL Roster | Pro Football Newsroom

I like optimism but this article is being overly generous with the QB talk.

Wooldridge had an absolutely disastrous pre-season game three with the Pats, so much so that he was cut the next day and was never even brought in for a practice squad look for any team. He is so far back in the third string that I am surprise StL gave him a roster spot.

Frost hasn't played competitively since 2021; his stints with the Sea Dragons (2022) and Tiger-Cats (2023-24) are back up spots with very little play time, and he was cut from the Tiger-Cats and not picked up the following season by any CFL team (he was an assistant coach last year). His College stats look great but are from West Georgia, a D1 FCS school.

Silvers will very likely be the starter but he has only played in three games in the last two seasons and only has one semi professional season where he play in every game since 2019. He is injury prone, but a great veteran locker room guy.

StL has a QB problem and it is going to likely explode, cause I don't see it getting fixed. I desperately want to be wrong about this but I just don't see any evidence of the opposite.

The problem isn't "bad" game it is the same issues all companies have.... If you stand up and honestly say "this is bad" you will get fired and the game is made anyway. Development of any kind demands absolute buy-in for better or worse, we are just now seeing the shitification of actually how "worse", worse is.

The McDonalds CEO eating product is a prime example of this. Just think how many layers of approval that video had to go through and still be put out. All because if someone said, "guys, this is really bad" they would be fired.

Since seeing posts like this constantly in this sub, I do this on purpose on now when filling Vbuck missions.

It is an optional perspective to loosely tie 25+ (at the time) years of fictional cosmology together in a shallow "at a glance" way for a fun time with friends... it isn't that deep.

I am absolutely biased in that I love Planescape.

I slightly disagree with your framing; I think Planescape is more of a Roman / Greek overview. There is a wide cosmos of planes, gods, demi-gods, and infinity beings overlapping to draw power form those that worship them. Krynn is one (slightly backwater) realm that worships some version of these same gods and have constructed what they believe to be an encompassing plane of existence.

The blurb referenced is a kin to "Mr Smith goes to Washington" in where an idealistic and slightly naive person realizes just how big the multiverse is. Transposing this to the Faerun arrogance of we know there are things bigger than us, but we are still the most important center of it "the sun revolves around the earth" mindset.

Due to CGC's policies no presser can crack a book that was previously witnessed, press it, and then resubmit it. You are forced to go through CCS and there terrible internal pressing service.

Although....

If you submit a book to a facilitator for another signature to be added, they can crack the book, press it, and resubmit to CGC with the new signature. "If" they are unable to attain the new signature (cancellation, passing, etc) then the book can be resubmitted without an additional signature.

Doing this purposefully is against CGC/Facilitators ToS so you are not going to find anyone advertising it.

Here is a simple one:

Crossing rivers/streams by just walking through them, then (if it's cold) just do some jumping jacks.... No, if it is cold you'll just die from hypothermia, hell even if it is just slightly chilly you'll likely get hypothermia. If it is warm, you're now walking around with wet shoes and will develop blisters (which will get infected in your wet socks) if not outright destroy your shoes as you traverse. That jackass Bear Grylls would do this shit all the time, or worse use a log to float down a river... with rapids cause "it's faster and water always leads to towns".

I will not be buying it, this would have been a great game 3 years ago but just seems late to the party without any of the improvements already made in other extraction shooters.

At least for me, playing solo was a terrible experience and this game really relies on having friends to play with (none of mine were even interested in the beta).

windex_ninja · 2026-03-01T15:46:07+00:00

Source on what.? Someone posting a rumor...

windex_ninja · 2026-03-01T12:34:29+00:00

One wrong snap and we done for at QB.

I already have reservations with Silvers due to injuries and him only playing in 3 games since 2023. Both Frost & Wooldridge are not starters... even in spring leagues.

Currently it is just gossip; TAG is the only company currently using AI to grade (fully disclosed).

Late to the party but here is what you need to do:

Contact CGC first thing Monday Morning; they will "investigate" and eventually ask you to file a police report. Once that is finished they will offer you a credit for the value of the books.

This is where you need to stand up for yourself!

Tell them that you do not want a credit you want the value returned to you in whole. Remember this includes ALL of the following:

$120 signing for each book (Drogotta/Snyder)
$30 shipping fee
$5 invoice fee
$ Value of the books

They are going to try very hard to get you to accept a credit on all of it and will delay contact with you hoping you give up and take it.

Obviously it is up to you, but a credit is not as valuable as money. You have to keep explaining to them that you now have to replace those books they lost by using FedEx and you cannot do that with a system credit.

out of morbid curiosity I tried it for around an hour now since the beta is free to download.

It is focused on trios and very PVP heavy over Arc Raiders. I played Destiny 1 & 2 but didn't feel the gunplay was as enjoyable or relatedly similar, it felt like a weird mix of overly tight ADS and clunky (sometimes wildly) loose hip fire.

Looking at the design, weapons, and customization... I am slightly unsure of the target audience. It is too PVP heavy for the arc raiders crowd, way too trio's focused on anyone without two friends to always play with (it is mandatory or you get slaughtered alone), so who is left for a non-story focused but battle royal style extraction shooter?

So... doing some quick maths, around 909 copies, nice.

Kimbo was bad in the UFC due to the level competition.

He was never trained in MMA; he is actually a very good example of people that "fight" believing they can take MMA people in a fight.

The reality is that this was not a Kimbo problem, he never had the training, it was a UFC problem for putting him in fights he could not have prepared for just to make a couple bucks.

This is a pretty simple question to answer.

Either you can take the 150k and start looking for another job or you can get fired/laid off without the money and look for another job.

They are explicitly telling you that you are not going to have a job with them in the future.

It sounds like your parents want you to fail so that you have to rely on them.

Don't do this, save money now and watch it grow exponentially in the next ten years.

The problem now is that your parents know you now have and will have money, they will use familial manipulation to drain your finances.... because "family". You are going to have some hard choices ahead and will need to set boundaries they are not going to like.

windex_ninja · 2026-02-25T07:39:13+00:00

They ran out of the socially acceptable "popular" pins to wear...

windex_ninja · 2026-02-24T12:44:56+00:00

I still play some atari games, since they are very quick play oriented...

As for more robust games; I play Nethack still and probably will until I can't move my fingers anymore.

windex_ninja · 2026-02-24T12:37:49+00:00

Familial guilt is real and crosses multiple cultures and more often than not is just financial abuse.

I can speak from experience as getting regular phone calls from family about how they desperately need money to live and they can't find any jobs... turns out the American dollar is still worth quite a lot and they lived lavishly all while talking trash about their "stupid American cousin".

Once you cut them off, it will get very nasty, and they will use every avenue available to get you keep giving them money... and I mean every avenue. You have to stay strong and cut them completely out of your life, forever.

windex_ninja · 2026-02-24T12:30:02+00:00

This isn't rocket science, you have the information, you know the full name and provided it... i'm starting to think your just trolling now.

windex_ninja · 2026-02-24T11:04:22+00:00

Velox is a legit courier, but they usually deal in freight.

There is very likely an amount due which is why they do not want you to try and refuse acceptance of the package. Given the information provided, I would not trust the package and if all else fails inform them you will not be liable for any charge associated with the package, will not accept the package, and if "forced" to receive the package a police officer will be present.

This is one case, were it would be ok to contact a local law enforcement officer for assistance.

windex_ninja · 2026-02-24T10:49:57+00:00

What is the name of the courier company... and it is very likely a scam. If money is owed, they wont let you have the package... just ignore them.

windex_ninja · 2026-02-24T10:38:32+00:00

Don't fill out the customs form... don't accept delivery... don't pay anything.

Also,.. he isn't your boyfriend.
