    If he has enough key guys opt out, it won't matter how good a coach he is. Also Cam still has a ton of health question marks.

    Should totally still count as a 50 goal season for Ovechkin. Robbed.

    Ovechkin with a goal and a pretty assist already in the the first 12 minutes.

    Nobody will remember the political stuff once they figure out Belichick is going to get to tank in a year with no fans to even boo so he can potentially get his next dynasty QB. No but seriously, if that actually happens and Lawrence turns out good? Fuck.

    I thought they semi tried to address it at the start when deciding between suppression v. mitigation. Mitigation strategies would have basically had life go on as normal but have all the at risk people basically keep themselves away from everyone for awhile. Granted, the small groups that...

    The Astronomy Thread

    I thought i had read somewhere it could be a large planet, but with an orbit that could be somewhere between 150-300 AU (for ref, Neptune is 30 AU and Pluto at its furthest is just under 50 AU). That would be fairly difficult to find I would assume.

    I'd expect players testing positive is far more a concern for coaches and staff with the team who are older and exponentially more at risk than the actual players themselves.

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    In theory the Alliance story is that the important families or whatever that used to be balances at whatever councils they have are now absent due to "problems" which you're obviously supposed to go resolve or discover. That allowed Ashvane to have as much influence as she did. Having not...

    I don't know...even with Trubinsky if they had a fucking kicker they would have won a playoff game two years ago. With their D having already shit on the Rams once that year if I recall. If they had met again later in those playoffs I don't think I would have picked against Chicago.

    I actually forgot Bears were sort of your team? Was thinking more the none of their fans want to watch Mahomes win anymore when they should have drafted him.

    I mean, definitely no Bears fans will be watching.

    Yeah at first I thought Clowney not signing early meant he was going to end up with a lowball offer...but now I think his patience is going to pay off and a couple teams will think he could be the missing piece and get into a small bidding war for him.

    @Gankak if you guys don't win the Super Bowl with Adams, and end up paying whatever crazy money he thinks he deserves...will that trade ever be considered a win?

    It'll all be something to keep an eye on, just feels like they really are trying SO many things/systems there's no way it can all be polished. I'll be interested to watch alpha streams of it, though.

    Holts pretty much a model of durability, so hopefully that continues. We'll see how it goes

    Samsonov hurt somehow, won't be our backup for playoffs. Should be ready for start of next season. In Holtby we trust!

    Ashes of Creation

    Actually a pretty well done video...I'm skeptical they can pull all that off he says in it, but if they do it could be something really amazing. Obviously it's a lot of broad strokes, but the non linear PvE endgame, and merging of PvP to achieve PvE goals sounds similar to Eve in some ways...

    Really seems to set up for them if they want to bail on Darnold after this year they'll have probably an early pick, another 1st, and and extra 3rd this year as ammo to potentially move up to get Trevor Lawrence.

    No question he makes their D better. Two 1sts and a 3rd for a 4th and him (and seattle sent a safety back the other way I think) is a lot, though.

    Well Ozzie is not GM anymore, so we still probably need to see a few more drafts out of DeCosta to really know. Ozzie trading up for Lamar in his last draft looking pretty good, though. I think Baltimore should be set up for the longest if Jackson can continue to develop and stay healthy, but...

    I'm not saying they are anything even close to a contender in the slightest. Probably not even fringe playoff team (even with the extra wild card) as our CEILING currently. But I think there is a small chance swapping to a 4-3 and getting some real coaching we'll surprise some people's...

    Pretty much, although we also have Kyle Allen, as well. I know smith gets a lot of love from certain fans, but I didn't see much from him when he was here when it wasn't the defense or running game carrying us to wins. He never overturned a single deficit to a lead in 10 starts that year...

    Hope he doesn't end up the starter for us. He could be a great mentor in the QB room, though.

    I do agree that top WR's almost need to be like top strikers in soccer toeing that line between confidence and almost arrogance, because you have to think you can outplay anyone against you to really be that dominant. Predicting 7 Super Bowls, though? The only guy in the NFL who should be...

    I know they turned Silverpine and Stonetalon into pretty good Horde stories with that revamp from what I heard. Never got around to actually going through them, though.

    Might be some cause to think that will change going forward. I wouldn't expect too much noise this year, I think our ceiling would be 6-7 wins, but after a 3-13 season I would take that as progress any day. Main thing will be to see if all the offseason work Haskins has put in pays off, and...

    Yeah I don't think calling Drustvar trash is fair. It had a cool feel to it, and the story was pretty solid throughout. Compared to somewhere like Tiragarde Sound, which felt like 4-6 different little bs stories.

    Final Fantasy VII Remake

    Funny to read once again Nomura and others were having to pull Kitase and Nojima back from doing even more drastic stuff (like them wanting to kill all but 3 characters that you would get to choose on the return to Midgar in the OG). Not sure I'd say it being in full development qualifies as...

    I was shocked when I skipped to the end of that video and Asmon had Stormsong as high as he did. Drustvar was pretty good, but other 2 zones for Alliance were a fucking slog for me.

    On one hand...it's the super safe route, and I guess they get a year to figure out a hopefully decent new name without it being a rush job that we all know they would have fucked up even worse somehow. On the other hand...it's so fucking stupid that they literally had zero contingency plan...

    How would you rate their BFA zones out of curiosity? I know most Horde hate their new city, but I kind of liked their zones going through them as Alliance but to hear Nazmir get rated so low kind of sucks.

    I didn't mind the 70+ flying areas in Blade's Edge (and agreed Ogri'la was actually pretty good), but the leveling experience dragged so much I just can never think of it as a good zone. This with me even liking the whole Starship Troopers references. I just remember being so happy to finally...
