    NHL 26-27: Roasting marshmallows around a Detroit dumpster

    Shit. RD cost a 1C and a goalie these days.

    2026-2027 NFL Season - The Vikings Are Looking For Their Sam Darnold

    He's gets his share of the blame, but the real problem is that Quinn admitted they actually called another play to try and gain more yards. It's a 40 yard kick, clock is running under 50 seconds and you have no timeouts why are we calling any play other than a pure spike of the ball or just...

    NHL 26-27: Roasting marshmallows around a Detroit dumpster

    Nothing better than beating the Penguins. Any concerns I had about Tuch's contract (at least in the early going) have been erased. Him with Wilson and PLD have been an unreal line so far.

    NHL 26-27: Roasting marshmallows around a Detroit dumpster

    It's going to be wild when all 3 are done. I think Sid might hang on another couple years to try and go for 2k points, but we'll see. But like Tom Wilson said to Ovechkin, they're the only 2 left from the 2018 Cup team, which is a little wild even though it's 8 years later. Trading Carlson...

    NHL 26-27: Roasting marshmallows around a Detroit dumpster

    Kind of expected, but a little sad to know this is definitely it. Obviously he's nowhere near the player he was even a couple years ago, let alone way back in his prime. But damn what a ride it's been. I'd love the fairy tale ending, but if we're living in reality, a decent playoff run would...

    NHL 26-27: Roasting marshmallows around a Detroit dumpster

    Love having to wait extra days to start the season and with a back to back on the road. At least Carolina was a speed bump this early in the year, see how we do with Tampa 24 hours later tonight.

    NHL 26-27: Roasting marshmallows around a Detroit dumpster

    For the Caps, Dylan Strome would almost certainly be part of the return going the other way, the problem lies in making cap hit work, as Larkin costs $3.7M a year more than Strome.

    Really hate it when an underdog is playing well and the refs decide to bail out the favorites.

    NHL 26-27: Roasting marshmallows around a Detroit dumpster

    Nice I guess that Larkin added Washington to his list...definitely has our fans doing some calculations how we could make such a deal work and fit under the cap this year and next (next year might get a little dicey with some bonus overages). We were already going to have to shed some salary at...

    2026-2027 NFL Season - The Vikings Are Looking For Their Sam Darnold

    Nah this is just people starting drama. Was literally halftime and refs were trying to get players off the field to not delay it and let medical team in. Once severity was known they let more players come back out.

    Mariota isn't even close to being on Daniels level. Come on man. More durable is debatable I guess. He sprained his MCL in the 1st preseason game this year. I get the talk about him, but he's barely lighter than other starters in the league today. Weird stuff happens. Skatt's and Tyreek's...

    From what I heard, they built the combat from the ground up, same with most of the world I believe. Granted, I never played the mobile game at all, so going in totally blind.

    2026-2027 NFL Season - The Vikings Are Looking For Their Sam Darnold

    Man...feels like as a Washington fan can't have nice things. Why not just take the 3 points? Lineman stepping on his foot causes the initial trip. Honestly thought Daniels had played great up until that point. 170 total yards in the 1st half with a TD pass to Diggs. Was even sliding well to...

    Early season overreactions are the best. All the Bills hype when their defense will just blow another late lead in the playoffs.

    NHL 26-27: Roasting marshmallows around a Detroit dumpster

    Love getting Leonard and Sourdif locked up for 8 years on the last day to do so. We'll have to make a couple small moves to shed salary for next offseason when the extensions kick in, but should be doable, and set up with plenty of cap after that to lock up Cole Hutson and the Protas brothers...

    Still not over that 2 point play call. Game on the line, might as well call a delayed shovel to the blocking TE Bates. Either it fools everyone on the field or it gets stuffed. No in between.

    Not sure if anything affects it, I guess just to let the player know when they're in areas where random encounters will occur v not? Or hey a fight is coming soon if you can hit a town do it in the next step or two?

    Not sure if there was a thread up for this yet? Played like an hour or so of the free demo last night, definitely has that old school FF feel. Looks great for HD-2D, sometimes it feels like they're trying to go a little too cinematic in combat with the limit breaks and big vision/esper...

    Take my money. Shit looks insane. Give me another 150+ hours to play through. Kinda interesting they're going for replay value with being able to choose characters to lead side missions and get to explore more of their stories that way. I almost feel like adding chocobo combat is too much...

    2026-2027 NFL Season - The Vikings Are Looking For Their Sam Darnold

    If they could have gotten him for the same price Seattle paid, probably would have worked out, too. But Nix would be even cheaper for 5 more seasons. Agreed they could have still salvaged some value out of McCarthy at one point, though. Probably get next to nothing for him now. Curious who...

    Kyler officially starting for the Vikes. Holy hell if they just had drafted Nix, that team would be fine right now. Not even the biggest Nix guy, but he's more than capable of getting a good roster where they need to go, and Vikes have a great head coach, too.

    Shorter career, but fwiw, in 8 years he was Defensive Rookie of the Year, had 1 NFL Defensive Player of the Year, and after his rookie season was 1st Team All Pro 5 times, and 2nd Team All Pro the other 2 seasons. That's 1 more 1st Team AP and 1 more 2nd Team AP than Brian Urlacher had in 13...

    There have been supposed leaks of the new jobs, the tank job even before the NA fanfest, and the phys ranged dps recently. I think they confirmed at NA that the new tank would be the 2nd "main tank" along with Paladin. I hope we get something on 8 man theme, definitely expect more evolved...

    Yeah, Brazil might be the bigger name, but Norway deserve their spot. The Quarters might all be bangers, and semis might legit end up France v Spain, and England v Argentina.

    Might depend on how they lay out the world map in Revelation, but some of the backstory stuff from Ever Crisis with former lands/people that Shinra basically conquered or got rid of could be added I guess. I'm skeptical how much of the Dirge lore will get included in Revelation (I mean, there's...

    Soccer 2022–2023 (EPL, La Liga, etc)

    This isn't the only reason they've looked like shit, though. They've played like shit at times. Opening match v Congo perfect example. Numerous chances to play crosses into the box..nah lets just back pass it and maintain possession. Congo had a shot on goal every 20 passes while Portugal...

    NHL 2025-2026: Canada's Quest to Defeat Bettman and Claim the Cup

    I'm a little more skeptical on their place in the East even with him. They kind of snuck in the playoffs this year on a ton of loser points, and hoping that Vladar doesn't turn into a pumpkin going forward. Even if he doesn't, Carolina isn't going anywhere, the Caps have loaded up, and in...

    Soccer 2022–2023 (EPL, La Liga, etc)

    Sometimes yes, sometimes the opposite. Feels like he's barely had any service at times (he's also done poorly on a few potential chances, too). But they could be crossing the ball a lot more and he's still a big threat on those. There's a reason they looked better after they made those...

    Soccer 2022–2023 (EPL, La Liga, etc)

    In the 2nd half, certainly. Played so conservative in the 1st, Portugal probably should have had more. Portugal just so strange, they have an insane midfield but for whatever reason they play like shit together on the national team a lot of the time. Drags their whole attack down.

    In terms of young studs and their place in the league, gotta rank 'em Mack, Schaeffer, Carlsson. Is he worth $18M a year in a vacuum currently? Maybe not, but with rising cap and the fact he's a legit 1C going forward...fuck it.
