You may find alienating the kind of working-class normal white dude who empathizes with you but can’t put words to what he feels might not be the winning hand you think it is. I know many who fit that mold and they’d be crushed to hear someone say what you did. Just throwing that out there.

the bad news is the Falcons will end up with a worse record

I know we dare not speak of his Falcon years but Jackson really does look like peak Mike Vick if you traded in some speed in exchange for some control with the pass. The Ravens better not screw it up.

Friendly reminder that when polled roughly 98% of “The South” wants to remain in the Union, so, guess you’re just stuck with us! womp womp

State Farm Arena in Atlanta’s a big example, down 4k seats from its max despite being a very popular venue, the new Warriors arena will seat 1k fewer, Madison Square Garden increased its seats but did so by adding an upper ring, spreading things out more, yea it’s the same trend you’re seeing take place in the larger

Boston’s going against the current trend; most places are reducing capacity to increase demand while simultaneously providing a more comfortable experience, making people *want* to go to their arena. But most places aren’t Boston and won’t just gobble up whatever sporting product is put in front of them regardless of

I’m specifically mad at Blizzard/others:

...except Sanders and Warren scares Zucc shitless and it’s pretty clear his ilk would rather have 4 more years of Trump if it means they won’t have to start paying their fair share of taxes.

10% of ActiBlizz revenue comes from China. Most of that 10% is from the Activision side. Take a wild guess where most of that other 90% comes from? They stand to lose far, far more pissing off even 30% of their base.

Yea the fact they whoop up on all comers and the fact they are basically gifted a 5-1 head start every single season are not mutually exclusive. No doubt they’re good and the best team of the modern era, but there’s just no way they’d have as much homefield advantage if not for the absolutely hopeless dorks they get

I map pigs all day long on Waze, not only would it exist there is already legal precedence saying it’s allowed to exist

I’m sure the eight thousand fewer seats to fill doesn’t hurt

What’s that? We can’t hear you over our massive crowds, immediate success, and overall competence

Guess there’s no recourse but to kill yourself

Congress, unlike the general public, tends to have a longer attention span on topics they deem worth paying attention to. If I were NBA, Blizzard, or any other dipshit who’s towed the CCP’s line I’d be concerned. Think about what it would take for AOC and Cruz to cosign something. These corps better correct course or

Posting this every time one of you wizened wizards thinks you’ve figured everyone out

You’re really, really missing the forest for the trees here. This is a foreign entity telling an American corporation how to act, in the name of censorship and hiding China’s abuses. I wouldn’t call it unprecedented, but it is not a good luck. By towing the CCP line they are stepping on the toes of free market forces

No, because all of my conservative friends rightfully are too ashamed to call themselves Republican anymore. And for some of these people who I’ve known since childhood, I’d happily tell them to choke on a bag of dicks about their requests for civility because I sure as hell didn’t receive any civility from then back

I bet the ghouls up top said exactly that after last Blizzcon. They’re about to get hosed. Feel free to buy if you think them abandoning the western market chasing Chicom bux is really as lucrative as some here seem to think
