    NFL 2019 Season: It's Tricky!

    Hard to say. Would he have bought in and did the 5 million less than market value contracts and all that? Team sport and one where the coach matters a lot.

    NFL 2019 Season: It's Tricky!

    But that wouldn't be .000 so that doesn't fit the narrative. Because it's not like if you swapped Rodgers and Brady that he wouldn't have a bunch of rings.

    The Mandalorian

    I mean his most recent thing before this show was a MTG:Arena commercial right? And don't talk shit about Apollo Creed!

    NFL 2019 Season: It's Tricky!

    I mean it's sort of intentional in that they traded a number of starters for draft picks. The secondary has a bunch of injuries too which doesn't help.

    Star Trek 4:

    Some people will just never be happy unless anything to do with Star Trek is some kind of parable.

    Pretty much this. Beyond wasn't a bad movie but Into Darkness was real, real bad.

    Boxing

    Wilder has monster power, but his actual skillset isn't great for an elite fighter.

    NFL 2019 Season: It's Tricky!

    Miami on a bit of a run, but way too big a deficit. Shit sucks.

    It's like good and bad Rex Grossman at the same time.

    NBA 2019-2020 Season: Kawhi Saved Us

    In a couple of years we'll probably all be talking about how he's the best player in the league and make fun of Sacramento for drafting Bagley ahead of him.

    NFL 2019 Season: It's Tricky!

    Maximum fines and shit are all baked into the CBA. Obviously 50k for someone making league minimum or thereabouts compared to someone making 8 figures is very different. Maybe his appeal gets it lowered, but lets not make it out like he was totally innocent.

    NFL 2019 Season: It's Tricky!

    Sure maybe they should have made it exactly a game check or whatever, but him getting a fine is totally reasonable.

    Knives Out (2019)

    Pretty much this. But this does look pretty interesting and that cast is wild.

    Yeah. Sounds about right.

    MTG: Arena

    Fair enough. Do you not play any ranked at all? Even the low ranks get you free packs and stuff.

    MTG: Arena

    How often does spitfire even come up? In thousands of matches I doubt I've had it cast against me more than 2 or 3 times total.

    Terminator (2019)

    Yeah it's totally franchise fatigue and not mediocre movie fatigue.

    MLB Hot Stove 2020: Congratulations to the nations capital

    Ellsbury has been such an awful contract. I still get annoyed when they decided to get him instead of just paying Cano when they already had like 20 outfielders.

    Get your pals together and play some limited with that shit.

    MTG: Arena

    Honestly they're probably all too slow against the burning tree emissary aggro decks.

    MTG: Arena

    May want like a blue castle in that mana base. Maybe in the one of the Field slots. Seems like a reasonable place to start if this is the kind of thing you want to run.

    Underrated Bands

    I think a lot of the bands mentioned are more underappreciated and don't have as wide as an audience as they probably should but are all well acclaimed by people with more than a passing knowledge of them. Which I think is a bit different than underrated and includes the bands I linked as well.

    Charlie's Angels (2019)

    I mean, I'm sure it's fine for what it is. Not like the original or the first reboot was anything but some silly bullshit anyways. Anyone going into something like this expecting Schindler's List is a retard and gets what they deserve.

    Should just be high end animation.

    Also when he wrote the early stuff fantasy was basically just Tolkien and Conan.

    Yeah fresh unsettled formats are a lot of fun.

    Elric Saga Acquired for TV adaptation

    I don't really see how they can do this show without removing most of the really bizarre fantasy stuff. GoT had a huge budget and is mostly non high fantasy outside of dragons/walkers which were mostly done in small doses for most of the show. That's not how Elric is lol.

    The Mandalorian

    There's going to be a time skip that'll be handled by a montage of him learning to ride space horses and then teaching the resistance how to do it.

    The Mandalorian

    Movie releases a couple of days after episode 7 which is being released a couple of days early which could set some of this shit up. There isn't really a break though just that one episode releasing 2 days earlier than normal.

    Jeremy Irons is the best part of the show. He's great.

    MTG: Arena

    The rec decks? I feel like it's a reasonable over the top deck and is a reasonable part of the metagame now that there's no stupid veil of summer. I'm kind of curious how it all shakes out over the next couple of weeks. A lot of the top streamers were playing it for the Twitch Rivals event...

    The Mandalorian

    It's like 5 years after Return of the Jedi and 25 years before the First Order. So no.

    The Expanse

    Pretty much this.

    MTG: Arena

    It's not too hard to interact with those decks with a control deck or to just clock them with fast aggressive strategies though. If you're going to durdle with a midrange strategy with no disruption you'll have a bad time though which is reasonable.

    MTG thread

    Yeah, it'll be a little while before it rebounds and that will be fairly slow. First step is the next set being released so that it's not the current draft format.

    Oko prices will rebound over time. While obviously really high because of how much it warped standard it's played in every constructed format it's legal in including Vintage.

    MTG thread

    Part of the problem is just not enough testing happens because it's such a small pool of players. Even with a good percentage of them being former pro players they're just going to miss stuff especially considering they have other tasks besides just testing. That being said, there's not really...
