I do not understand the anti-VAR slant the site has become so devoted to lately. Any issue here is in making sure the officials use VAR the right way, not in the fact that VAR exists at all. That’s going to take time, obviously. It’s a new thing! Name me any fanbase that gives a shit about the “flow” of the game when…

What an utter fucking disaster. Holy shit.

this right here is why using the superstar players as an argument w/r/t MLB players’ lack of bargaining power vs. the owners—a very real issue—is stupid. machado and harper got the money they wanted, and then they got more. spread the wealth.

I’d say most billion-dollar products are shameless yet extremely well-executed copies

Al Horford was the best player on last year’s playoff team, not Jaylen

everyone should just join the fucking lakers!!!

The longtime president of Nintendo of America is stepping down on April 15, to be replaced by marketing man Doug Bowser...

I usually find Tetris to be this calming experience that lets me hyper-focus on something and Tetris 99 makes me feel like I’m always scrambling in a way that, sure, is exciting but not something I want to chill with long term.

second graf: sure, okay, yes

It’s a pretty great bit. Wasn’t expecting him to be fully aware of the state of gaming content on YouTube/Twitch, but it seems like he knows what’s up.

At this point I frankly do not understand any Dem who wouldn’t hold their nose and vote for Generic Democrat Nominee in 2020. I would be most happy if Bernie or Warren secured the nomination, but I’d vote for Kamala or Beto in a heartbeat if it means getting this dipshit out of office. If the left can’t get united…

there is a 110% chance there will be a story about how EA rushed bioware to get this game out the door and stressed the fuck out of its employees, who, managers aside, already knew the game was going to be received poorly. it’s so obviously transparent that there is an organizational mess behind all of this.

I have tried to care about top-tier players getting 7-year $250 million contracts instead of 10-year $300 million ones and convince myself that’s a “labor issue” I should feel bad about, and I can’t. Subliminally equating athletes making hundreds of millions of dollars in player contracts and sponsorship deals to more…

I don’t mind the segments. Think it takes a decent amount of the luck out of long oval races. What I hate is the playoffs format. Imagine Lewis Hamilton dominating a whole year, but Verstappen hanging in the top 4, winning the last race in Abu Dhabi, then being crowned champ. The best driver does not always win in…

I once started a game with 10 people targeting me and died in about 10 seconds

It’s a small sample size, to be sure, but it’s a complete toss up at this point. It could be A-Rod (more talented in his prime than either Manny or Bryce) or it could be Pujols and Tulo. Bryce in particular has had injury problems. It makes zero sense to throw down that much of a guarantee for one player when you…

the nationals offered bryce $300 million! players speaking their mind is great. how many 10-year contracts have ever worked out in baseball? i hate that i sound like this, but guys like manny and bryce, who are great, are not worth what they and their agents are asking for. the market was broken 10 years ago; it is…

You’re right, how could I forget this was an either/or situation, just like everything else in life.

Kareem Hunt? More like giant sack of shit that shouldn’t be allowed to play football anytime soon but will continue to serve as a tacit symbol that it’s acceptable to harass women despite all the performative bullshit the NFL has started spewing regarding its newfound wokeness and further ingrains in the minds of…
