    NHL 22-23: Tanking hard for Bedard

    I'd really love if luck somehow went our way and Bedard ended up in DC. Probably not a fair result but fuck it :)

    Star Wars: The Bad Batch

    One of the few things I liked about EU was in some of the very later 9 book series, Fett plays a pretty integral role at times and more gets discussed about the cloning, Kamino, etc.

    Real bids. My paranoia is Snyder will still somehow not sell the team. But it's starting to feel real.

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Not sure which part of SB we're talking about. Post 2.0 content is worst part of the game, really, although the trimming has helped some. Frankly, 4.3-4.5 is some of the best stuff in SB, and a tremendous lead up into Shadowbringers. Granted, even I forgot about a lot of the cutscenes, etc...

    Thing is his play has dropped off a little since the MVP year. His TD% was obviously unsustainable from that season, predictably dropped off. Could they go on a run and make a Super Bowl? Sure, in theory. I wouldn't want to bet on anyone in the AFC, though. Just so stacked. Difference...

    Weird to see that article say the product on ice has suffered. Frankly I think it's better than ever around the league. Hoping he doesn't top Ovi's 65.

    Going to be interesting to see how he fits. Lamb still a really high pick in fantasy next year, but I wonder how rest of targets will shake out with Gallup likely feeling much better another season removed from his injury recovery, plus whatever they do at TE if they don't bring Schultz back.

    Welp, definitely feels like our playoff streak coming to an end this year. Too many injuries all year, keep losing guys. Too many points lost. At this point rest of the year is just about Ovechkin scoring as many goals as he can to lower the number he needs, heck another goal and he'll hit 40...

    Not sure I totally agree with the recap of that SB, as the Packers were absolutely rolling them in the 1st half with Rodgers dropping dimes wherever he wanted a lot of that game (and most of that playoff run). All part of Big Ben's amazing first 10 Super Bowl quarters of his career where he had...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Having the new hot bar/abilities simplifies keeping them separate, as we've seen plenty in the past history of WoW how abilities being overpowered in pvp or pve and vice versa cause issues with class balancing.

    Watson did show some shit last year, but unless Doubs really develops, they really don't have much. Agreed it would be hilarious if they finally grabbed some in the draft. "We need to give Jordan Love the tools to succeed"

    The narrative on Rodgers is funny, it wasn't just the defense that won that Super Bowl for them, he was lights out in that playoffs other than the Bears game (the actual team who got carried by their D). D hasn't exactly been one of their assets in the playoffs most of the time. There's no...

    There will only be one more set of crafted battle gear. But yes, maxing this current set of crafting gear will have you all set pretty much until level 99/100 white set at 8.0 level cap. Agree with Cyb there will likely be more relic steps. Even if we feel further along on this one in just...

    I was merely poking fun at what seemed like you meant, don't be so on the defensive yourself just because everyone else pretty much was on the same side I was, to keep the two essentially completely separate. There's disadvantages to linking everything together, as it does make some players...

    As anyone with eyes could have read my previous comment that noted I hadn't touched the game since 9.0. But honestly could care less about pvp. It shouldn't need pve'ers to be forced to participate in it just to keep it afloat.

    Cap dumps will do that, plus he isn't far and away the best corner in the league anymore like he was (or arguably with 2-3 other guys) back then.

    Why would pvp die? I thought it always had its own dedicated group. Although with the current downturn of the entire game maybe the pvp population is at such a low level it couldn't handle that.

    Are you sure? X.3 is usually the final crafted set for crafting/gathering. They'll add in purple scrip set for people to get to decent ilevel/stats for it, but pretty sure this current crafted set is the top end we will get this expansion.

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Frankly I think PVP should be isolated from PVE. Maybe a potential path to basic gearing, like something between Normal/Heroic, but nothing close to actual pve stuff like raids or M+. Obviously pvp should let you get gear that helps you pvp better, though.

    And yet, aren't there M+ versions that are comparable/better and easier to get just rolling keys? I haven't played a second since 9.0, but always felt like a lot of the gearing was easier/better just chasing +gooder on the exact same item drops out of M+ every season.

    On the crafting/gathering relics, is there going to be a lot more steps planned? 2nd level upgrade pretty much puts it on par with crafted HQ stats, minus materia stats. Plus you get that interesting 1.75 times quality increase on Good conditions. I feel like the Ishgard relics had MANY more...

    Feeling pretty good about this Sandin trade so far. 8 points in 4 games? Second 3 assist game tonight. Little sloppy defensively but you'd expect that coming to a new team.

    Three 3rds is kind of ridiculous, too. Makes the CMC trade that much easier for them. From only 4 picks in the upcoming draft to 11 just that quick.

    I don't know, if he's already turned down $250M+ total over 5 years, with $133M guaranteed at signing, is it really worth it to go more than that AND give up two 1sts? I don't think teams are lying about not being interested unless he brings his asking price down.

    Well it does in the sense that he's currently tagged by an AFC team. Some other options that have been presented as potential landing spots would be Miami (assuming weird Tua health news or as part of trade to send him back to Baltimore with pick/s) and Houston.
