I’m glad you brought up Big Boi because that his fur coat was the real Superbowl MVP.

Big Boi’s fur coat was the true winner of the Super Bowl

I’d argue that this country deserves it.

worse than Eli. the Philadelphia Eagles.

Every team that loses a Super Bowl to the Patriots should be relegated to Canadian football until there are no NFL teams left except the Patriots and we can finally destroy the NFL for good. God damn these losers straight to hell.

Fun Fact: in the halftime show, Big Boi rode a Cadillac down the field for more yards than the Rams had in the entire first half.

As a Lions fan I can take solace in the fact that we scored as many touchdowns in the Super Bowl as the Rams.

Yeah, this is a good point.

I have heard that Fertitta really has very little liquid cash and that has caused some issues with owning a gosh darn basketball team. He had to sell $1.5B of bonds to even buy the team, he barely had any cash to underwrite the purchase.

Put that together with the Rockets’ Tillman-era hesitation to pay the luxury tax, and you’ve got a picture of an owner who is determined to maintain his own wealth, and is relying on Daryl Morey’s creativity to do what is done by other, better owners with cash.

“I don’t even remember what Kirk’s problems were with it but they’re largely unfounded or at least not terribly relatable for most”

Sony would definitely troll me by giving me Detroit after I had purchased it 2 weeks earlier. I was actually interested in trying a modern soccer game.

My guess would be something licensing related, especially since licensed clubs/players tend to vary from one PES to another. I feel like it's a legalese issue considering how last second the swap is.

Of course they can, but that doesn’t protect writers from criticism. Particularly in the case of public works of art. If we want to take games seriously—which I hope we all can agree on that at least—it will sometimes mean talking about stuff we found questionable.

It’s totally okay to disagree about this stuff too.…

if only someone had ever spelled out your problem and provided an answer to it

The beatings will continue until morale improves!

I do feel some days like a corporate slave but that is true of most today.

Yeah. It’s incredible that both of the following are simultaneously true:

The fucking Bills, man. They trade their starting quarterback to a team that is going to also draft a quarterback regardless. They double-fucked themselves. Hope you enjoyed that playoff game, Buffalo. You aren’t seeing another one for a looong time.

It’s...pretty formulaic. But good.
