Carl's tellin' it like it is.

I tried implementing an instrumentation test in one of my projects and shit just wouldn't work. The testing, not the code. Spent half a day trying to get it working and finally decided to move on and do it as I had been doing (implement, build, push, test, repeat). Which works in my environment.

hi2u burst It's a good change though. Crit relics/crystals were basically afterthoughts. I might bank a few and see what the market is like at the end of the month. Could see that being the new flava.

Depends on how they were set up. Most of us here would probably be fine rooting a device but I doubt that's in abundance within the average employment of an NFL team. They're likely also under lock and key and constantly being guarded when not.

I can probably count the number of times leveling scaling might impact me on one hand. But then I spend 90% of my time on fleet so what do I know?

Talk about peaking at the right time. Have to admit, when Yu went down and the way this team looked with 100 games played, didn't expect to see meaningful October baseball being played. 1 more win (or Astros loss) to secure division.

I saw that. I like the idea but I'm not holding out hope for the playerbase to grok it. Ancient Hypergate is 3 years old and people still fuck it up.

Rundownof the live stream last night. Lots of good shit, good QOL improvements. Some iffy stuff (the deleveling on older content, but GW2 manages so w/e), but overall pretty positive. Except the lack of PvP anything. That makes me super sad sith.

There's no guarantee that Rodgers would have turned out the same if he had been taken by the 49ers. Smith was put into the worst possible situation. Revolving doors at coach and coordinator, an offensive line that was offensive, etc. They didn't give him much of a chance to begin with. Rodgers...

Right. NO is in actual cap hell as opposed to the virtual one they always place Dallas in. That plus the Rob Ryan curse basically means they're gonna be a dumpster fire for a bit.

In a manner of speaking. It's a shitty representation. Basically you want to be close to 0 on Y but close to 250 on X. This basically shows what we all know: A. A. Ron is a great QB.

mutually assured destruction

There's no real world equivalent that pops off to the top of my head but imagine a pyramid scheme where the top guy and his BFF get axed. The power structure is actually still there, it's just a matter of it now being x number of direct subordinates instead of just one guy. It will be...

Bears dumping players.Jared Allen to Carolina.

I know every year is its own animal but this year is just very strange so far. Can't even imagine what it's going to look like when the calendar turns to December.

Nah, Jerry isn't going to do anything to Garrett. I think it would take two really bad years to force his hand in that area. He stuck with him through three straight 8-8 records, he'll keep the train rolling until shit's real bad.

Defense just completely shit the bed yesterday. Like I said, flashbacks to 2011/2012. Guys weren't coming off blocks, not tackling, not getting to the QB, not doing anything to slow down Julio. I thought the offense was great until they forgot they still had half a game to go. Running less...

That shit was downright depressing yesterday. Was having flashbacks to 2011/2012.

Nope. Don't know nuthin' about that.

Further degradation of class balance, new flavors of the month, no adjustment for the changing stats. Just like the last two times they had level increases.

Lead dog requires special talent, which is what Beckham gives you. If what you're saying holds true then Cruz should be fine as he won't be the primary focus. Teams still can't sleep on him, any more than they would Roddy White for Atlanta, but they won't overcommit to him as much.

You're not wrong. I find SI the weakest by far. The story has zero impact in the overall GCW and they really screwed up the transition from Chapter One to Chapter Two.

Yeah, good opportunity to get that magic number down this weekend. Baseball is weird man.

Probably the one consistent aspect of the NFL for a long time now is the added intensity of the divisional games. Even when a team is a dumpster fire, when they go up against a divisional rival it's "Any Given Sunday" time.

I had some thoughts about winnowing but I felt it was pretentious given my experience. I hope I'll never be in a position of giving a "yea" or "nay" on someone but the way this gig is going, it's probably going to happen at some point.

I'll reassess on Sunday but right now it really does look like its Dallas' division to lose.

Which is the model Dallas has been moving to. Primary reason they didn't sign Murray to the money he wanted. Anyway, Schadenfreude engaged!

They also had a pretty good defense those years right? Not going to look up the stats but if the argument is that he managed to lift up the team on his back and carry them into the playoffs, then that's the wrong argument. The argument should be that a good to great quarterback with a solid team...

Guildy recently upgraded his CPU and video card to some that came out within the last year and said even on the fleet in crowded areas he didn't drop below 30fps.

If you're working at 80 then something went horribly wrong.

This goes hand in hand with that Business Insider article. Eagles WR: Cowboys were calling out what plays were coming | ProFootballTalk

The sad part is that they brought in Ponder and Flynn to work out and decided it was better to give up a 5th for Cassell and a 7th.

Philly front 7 is pretty good. They held up very well against a Dallas offense that grinds out the clock, and didn't start to falter until very late in the game. Chip just wasn't doing them any favors by staying with his quick pace offense for 3-1/2 quarters. His gimmicky offense would work...

The usual. Operation pugs exist and are generally always being set up on the more populated servers. There's Flashpoints, dailies, PvP, and (if you like torture) GSF. There's a fairly extensive Achievement system if you're into that sort of thing. This game really needs something like the...

Fitz was always serviceable. A lot of people were puzzled when he was released by Buffalo in Marone's first year especially since the next option was EJ Manuel. Rex made his bed with Sanchez but the last three years or so the front office didn't do him any favors so the Jets getting worse can't...

A great QB can only do so much when the rest of the team isn't up to par. amirite?

Does NO win without Brees though? They have Luke McCown as their backup and behind him is a rookie. Without Brees this is an immensely winnable game for Dallas. The Atlanta game is hard to read at the moment but it's another winnable game for Dallas. I admit to not knowing much about what...

You snuck that in while I was responding to the A. Brown comments. Edited back in the context. I'm not as delusional as you Someone find Araysar and put a suicide watch on him. His boo is gonna miss some games. Jay Cutler out at least two weeks with hamstring injury - NFL.com

Really hard to argue against that at the moment. Re: Cowboys upcoming schedule: Imma go Garrett on this and focus on just this week. I think they beat the Falcons.

It does happen but not all that often: Since realignment only 10 teams have managed it out of 107 to start 0-2. That's 9%. None have gone 0-3 and done it but getting just one win and going 1-2 can give you hope since 36/141 teams to start with that made the playoffs.
