I mean, there's definitely stuff left out and some stuff that's added specifically for the show, but it's very faithfully adapted compared to most adaptations. Kind of bummed that there wasn't more of the common people gassing up Dunk towards the end.
You judge people by how they compare to their peers in era. You then also have a section of the hall that talks about the era and gives it context. Let people decide what that means for themselves.
That's a big part of it. Also, the whole putting it before the Superbowl was the worst idea as if the 2 best teams wouldn't have players that should be in the game.
I always wondered if an alternate immediately declines do they still get listed or do they just get ignored and someone else gets selected. I know once they've been announced they're still a probowl selection even if they end up not going.
I mean people have always dodged the game for a variety of reasons and it definitely ramped up when the game got slotted before the Superbowl. That said, disparaging the 9th best player in a conference at a single player position is not nice!
I haven't watched this show. I absolutely love the Herbert books and I thought the movies were great. It's unfortunate that I'd probably dislike this show since I'm such a fan of the IP, but I'll probably eventually watch it for the same reason I read a bunch of the shit books that weren't...
So you guys are saying that someone that might be the 2nd best hitter in the league and an all star starting pitcher that also steals a bunch of bases is a good player?
Getting out of the upper apron tier is a big deal. Maybe Tingus Pingus balls out and goes wild but even if he does, not sure that means much if they don't have Tatum anyways. Drue has obviously declined and his contract was going to look really shitty soon. They can try to put themselves in a...
That's probably good for the team. He owns the Dodgers too and he's willing to spend into the tax and lets the sports dudes do the sports stuff for the most part.
Crossroads was the worst of all the books to me. The stretch from like Path of Daggers through crossroads really needed to be edited better and been like 2 books instead of 3. He also wrote Knife of Dreams which was much better than crossroads.
It was Shadowhawk 1, Spawn 4, Wildcats 2, Cyberforce 1, Brigade 2, Youngblood 0, and Savage Dragon 3 that had the coupons. You needed all 7 coupons to redeem for Image 0.
People make it sound like players are foul merchants because they're bitches and not because they get rewarded for the behavior. Good athletes will adapt to the context of their environment. There are some players with particular skillsets that wouldn't translate as well era to era but in...
