Not sure I agree with your last statement. If you go back to the new millenium, Houllier was traditionally in the Top 4 and kept his job until the players kind of tuned him out. Benitez as well. Hodgson was hired by Hicks on his way out and was a limited coach for any team with ambition (Hi England!) and was on…

The Yanks had some unsustainable performances and luck in the first half of the season that put them into a higher place than their roster should have allowed. I’m convinced Cashman went into the trade deadline knowing this and rather than do anything drastic, took the approach that anything gained this season is just…

This whole comment thread is kind of lame. Inter divisional rivalries aside, The O’s won the pennant for the first time in nearly 20 years last year and I do not recall feeling all salty about the celebration. I guess it begs the question; Is’ O’s Poes and Bohs just going out of his way to find places on the net today…

I bought my Vita two years ago...It seemed like it was hitting it’s stride. There were crappy ports but also this huge variety of independent games with cross platform functionality. Then it seemed to dry up.

You’re right Bill. We should be taking this more seriously than we do.

The Flyers were wearing an orange third jersey for years. They ditched the blacks ones a few years back and adopted the orange for home.

I like it. Its not garish, pretty subtle for the most part and if the 4 orange stripes represent the 4 Stanley Cups then its a nod to one of the cooler European traditions of having a tribute to the titles won on the Jersey.

I am at a loss as to how Billy Beane let this guy go for Brett Lawrie and a coin flip minor leaguer. Nothing about the deal makes sense...less so now

Harrison’s viewpoint on the subject is rather extreme. He appears to be one of those fathers where winning is the only thing that is important and for that reason he is returning those trophies.

As much as I loved the Wing Commander series, you have to wonder if a designer who made games back in the days before these massive budgets is able to adapt to the new reality of multi million dollar games. I’d love to see this succeed, but ultimately I get a feeling that this sucker is going to under deliver based on…

I have found myself quite a few times over the last year or so angrily yelling at a TV in a bar for officials to step in and stop the beatings that some of these guys are taking. I think one of the biggest turn off moments was the Diego Sanchez - Gilbert Melendez fight in late 2013 which was universally praised as a…

Billy you’re ultimately right. The market for Raheem Sterling was set because one team needed him to make up the home grown number. Nobody else was going to meet Liverpool’s valuation, which might have actually been less had City not been so desperate.

I’m not sure what the author’s background is, but this article feels like there’s an ax to grind with Liverpool.

I purchased Fallout 3 and now Bethesda is giving it away free with Fallout 4. Should I demand a discount on my Fallout 4 purchase because I already bought Fallout 3?

I concur here. Speaking not even as an Xbox owner, this is something, if combined with the user content idea and executed properly completely validates Microsoft’s platform approach and design decisions that left the One underpowered vs. the PS4.

I think the ultimate sad thing in all of this is a developer spent time and effort making a controversy instead of a game. The game will sell based on controversy but ultimately it will just reflect badly on games and gamers as people who do not understand the industry will hold it up as an example of a the industry.

The round table answered that question. Its never thrown in your face, its just there and in the context of the story and the film it makes sense. I never felt that Furiosa’s strength detracted from Max’s. The big difference is, Furiosa’s strength was never derived from the typical female tropes you see in Action…

The Raps have streaky shooters that take a lot of ill advised shots so tight games could go out of control quickly if those shots weren’t going down.

Koster’s article is bitter sweet as the Jedi episode surely caused the subscription losses that lead to the NGE.

If Klopp goes to a mega club (Lets say Manchester City), he will likely have similar issues that other managers coming from situations where finances forced them to think on their feet, they usually struggle to purchase correctly early on and do not necessarily get results right away. For a team like Man City, that…
