He dumb, but has half a point. All the half measures being taken are just a strange sort of health related virtue signalling. If they're supposedly isolating for safety of players, then why are employees coming in and out. If masks work, then people should wear masks and isolating wouldn't be...

Cheerleaders having sex with players and staff? Gonna be funny watching how shocked and outraged everyone pretends to be.

I hope the NFL goes the Don Sterling route to oust Snyder. If they have dirt on him that could be why he was finally willing to change the name. After blackmailing him, use the dirt to create the scandal that gives cause to oust him. All under the guise that the team is in chaos and needs the...

https://www.reuters.com/article/us-basketball-nba-mil-lal-davis-jersey/lakers-davis-wont-wear-social-justice-message-idUSKCN24D0R9 Propaganda for thee, but not for me. David feels his family name is more important than corporate approved free speech. Good news is the one white American left in...

Sponsors and the cummissioner made sure Snyder understood he had no power over a team he owned, particularly when it came to ever getting a new stadium. You didn't build that. You can't own a business. That's bad and wrong, and your rights don't matter if the angry mob deems you unworthy. If...

Wish I would have read this thread before starting to watch this show, because the consensus here seems right again and I would have avoided. But stupid me I suggested we check it out, and my less-discerning other-half really likes Steve Carrel and thinks this show is 'funny enough'. But really...

Washington Black Wall-Streeters.

That's not how this works. You don't get to keep Native imagery after being in the crosshairs and labelled a racist. You don't get to buy peace with some small gesture of wokeness or with an offering. Or did you think these outrage brigades are a bunch of lifelong sports fans concerned about...

Why are you responding like I quoted you? I didn't, so don't directly know or care about your position on any of this specifically, even though it may add to the idiocy and cowardice generally. Nor do I care whether you'll be voting in November, but I do care that you aren't American because you...

I totally agree with the sentiment of just fast forwarding through commercials and half-time and muting the commentary and just ignoring the virtue signalling on uniforms if you don't like racist, anti-American social justice messaging. Also, just drive around protests blocking streets. And just...

Guys, cmon, can't we just talk about how awesome football is while it lasts, and ignore the people ruining football.

I feel you. In Washington state. Never gotten through on phones, only a recording saying they're experiencing high volume and then the line hangs up. The state got defrauded out 600 million dollars from Nigerians filing tens of thousands of fake claims, causing more delays and at one point the...

Please describe the Washington Warrior mascot and logo so I can explain how it will be called racist. This isn't because the name Redskins just is a tiny bit too insensitive, so no, Warriors or Braves isn't going to fly. Maybe Redtails, but they'll be accused of insincere pandering. Why...

If the product was still as good it would be harder to walk away, but I guess maybe a lot of people still think the product on the field is great? Watching a confusing product and then every commercial and public service announcement being how I can go fuck myself for being born made it easier...

What do you like most about the NFL in recent years? I just can't stay interested anymore between the social justice deal constantly and butchering the game to the point refs don't even seem to understand rules anymore. Only reason I've watched in recent years is rooting for the Pats in the...

The XFL seemed pointless in the early 2000s, but who woulda thunk the NFL's strategy would be to make the XFL seem like time traveling geniuses. The league with more violence and edgier content and floozier cheerleaders just failed, so the NFL took that to mean people want a league full of PC...

Care to ban bet? Though, keep in mind, I didn't say end, just ruin. So, let's meet back here in say 15 years to argue over the word ruin and whether it applies in retrospect to the potential career he may have had.I Sheeeeeit, if he had fought with cops he'd be a hero right now. Rookie mistake...

This the new standard? With any new virus or disease they lock us down until a vaccine can be developed and we're given the all clear? Sure means a lot of power and money going to a small group of people. Hope they have our best interests at heart!

Trying to get your car out of a body of water doesn't mean you deserve to have your career ruined! Justice for Jermiah!

No, they definitely aren't. We're in "aggressive isolation" for the foreseeable future. I was referencing that the area is so hypocritically liberal there was a memo going around from University of Washington healthcare workers and professors encouraging people to go to the recent protests...

https://www.seattletimes.com/business/economy/washingtons-unemployment-fraud-may-have-hit-650-million-state-recovers-333-million/ The governor closes everything, floods the umemployment office with new claims. In the chaos they get ripped off for 650 million dollars. And the scammers help make...

I've been in the queue for 3 hours and the stated time has gone from 130 to 200 minutes. The queue time always seems an underestimate, so I'd guess you're looking at 4 hours to log in? Doesn't hurt to just queue up, though. I wish you could /invite people to take your place or some shit...

Logged in to the server and no character listed after I made one earlier, but couldn't log in. Then clicked to create a character but let me, could rotate, but everyone was blank/invis. Went back to server screen and tried to re-connect to server, but it said I had an active character already...

Yeah, I definitely see that being a good direction. And people don't care about graphics, just challenging cooperative gameplay, so they could save a lot of money there and really focus on mob AI and systems that enhance the dynamic group centric experience that really brings back the social...

Clearly the servers are crashing because these new servers are so popular it's proving there's an insatiable appetite for old school gaming that could usher in a new era for the mmorpg genre! Rejoice! This will spark another decade at least of theorycrafting on these forums!

I thought about getting a new one. If you need/want a media hub sorta deal they seem to get good reviews. And bonus you can stream from PC to TV pretty well, too. I had the hand-held controller version of their Shield and it was awesome for streaming games to the TV (especially being portable...

You're an optimist! Even with an infinite amount of universes I'm still not sure one would exist where Brad managed to launch Pantheon by now.

Friend is trying to talk me into playing, so figured I might check it out just for some laughs. Managed to get a password recovery sent for my old account, but they wanted me to answer a security question from over a decade ago and I don't remember the sarcastic answer I gave. Daybreak website...

I think both. There have been weird hints that the tests are still shit, testing for 'a' coronavirus, not 'the' virus, And also that the virus is barely noticeable in the average person, but ravages those at high risk. I can't remember if it was posted here, but yeah weird things about this...

I work in a legal office in the court system so a lot of exposure to the public, criminals, court hearings/dockets (and we learned you can't legally refuse public access) groups of jurors, handling mail and shared documents, etc. She has a congenital heart defect and has had a couple open heart...

Normally it's bad news either way. There are 'good cause' reasons you can quit and get unemployment. For instance, right now my girlfriend's new transplant doctor hasn't even been able to get into the country from Austria because of the travel restrictions, so they're saying we might have to go...

Update on my personal shit show with all this Covid mess. High risk girlfriend, so we're basically still on indefinite isolation. Her doctors say don't go back to work unless they can provide accommodations, and work has been cool about it but nothing they can do to further reduce my risk, which...

I enjoyed the handful of classes I tried, but man the Bloodmage was the most fun I've ever had with a class and made Vanguard my favorite mmorpg ever. Bloodmage was a bit bloated on abilities, and it was at times exhausting because if you wanted to be good there was a lot of stuff to juggle...

Buy the cheap all digital one now. If you start enjoying Xbox gaming too the price will drop for the x sooner to series x launch. If it collects dust was cheapest entry point and still good for media hub. Sometimes frustrating if you see disk versions of games on good sales, tho, I imagine. Are...

There is a ton of incompetence everywhere in life, even in the military, but overall baring people/conditions from joining the military is one of the few things they've done pretty well, especially considering the immense public pressure to let anyone and everyone join just to be nice to them...

I imagine there is a difference between people standing idle in lines versus breathing hard in a jazzercise class. Early on there was that choir that got infected despite distancing because of projected spittle (is the theory). 6 feet is a guideline but maybe not a one-size-fits-all solution. Of...

Sounds about right. On the one hand, anything involving the government is very deterrent based and mired in bureaucracy but once you get through the hoop they'll do a lot to keep you jumping to justify their budgets and all the bureaucracy. And of course it justifies all the social programs and...

I've been trying not to get in the weeds with this issue... but what the fuck is the COVID truthers movement and why am I supposed to believe that was a sick burn? This whole COVID thing is like government overreach meets misery loves company. Well, shit, if we have to suffer in my family or...

1. Well, my life story: At one point we were going to get married. We both had good jobs and it made sense and was inevitable anyhow. Then the open heart surgery she got a few years before meeting me wasn't having the results they'd hoped and she kept passing out and having heart rhythm issues...

I'll go ask the felony dept if they have the forms and can appoint a public defender. Hey, do you live in the Northern Hemisphere? I know a guy there you probably know too. Yeah, marriage would solve one issue and cause a handful of others. In part because of many of the same broken government...
