It would probably be easier for people to let Blizzard slide if Blizzard didn't act like they actually we're somehow superior, with their pretentious mottos and shit.

Ah yes, that most holy of covenants, the Kickstarter promise.

Yeah, so we are cool with LeBron and the NBA now, even after the China and Hong Kong stuff? Or is it just whatever for the clicks? I don't blame you if it's that, Splinter just got shit down and I'm sure the leash is pretty tight, but damn, man, between the constant Redskins coverage and the continued ignorance…

Certainly the end of one.

Can you guys please stop calling them the “Skins”? It makes my skin crawl a little bit, they don’t deserve to be called anything.

Just read Roth’s column on the same topic. This is just bullshit Boomer-y trash framing a white man as the one to feel sorry for in all of this because the Astros are big fans of domestic violence.

What's with the leading question from the reporter that 99% of the hug is bad? Why make the guy have to defend it? This is wonderful, and there should be more male touching and bonding in a positive way in sports.

I know offense has been improved, but vaunted NFL parity has been obliterated by tanking and what appears to be a massive dearth of talent overall. The bad teams in this league are BAD, it’s kind of unreal. The worst 2 teams had worse than -200 point differentials in 2000, Miami is on pace to be -400, and 5 of the…

The real question that remains, as some have pointed out, is what happens when he needs to tap those guys that are being obviously avoided? It has to be painfully obvious that nobody on the team trusts them in any situation, let alone a high pressure WS appearance, and I can’t imagine that does good things to one’s…

This is the entirety of Paradox's business model. The DLC costs more than the game, and it's constantly rolling out.

Is there a chance that it doesn’t have to do with viewership, but rather, is looking at cyclically depressing salaries for position groups over time? Maybe this is pins-and-string-on-corkboard levels of suspicion, but after reading this article and lots of the comments, it makes me wonder. The homers go up across the…

Just don't contract with shitty, cut rate knock off mobile devs, should be ok.

Overwatch is so far from being one of the greatest games of all time, I’m not even sure what follows can accurately be called anything other than fanmail. And Blizzard isn’t just it’s publisher, it’s it’s developer, too. That sentence irked the shit out of me, like Overwatch stans trying to put space between their…

To play devil’s advocate, why should anyone accept that the call on the field is inherently superior to the right call, simply because it was made on the field? To my knowledge, there's no other justification for making the field call nigh-unchallengeable. It seems more like a Madden-esque simulation of football, that…

Once again, I ask, why does Bungie do nothing but recycle Destiny 1 material in this game? Nightmares that are just old enemies fought again, locations rehashed, plotlines revisited over and over again. The plot isn’t even that well written or compelling. I think the Activision deal for multiple games really set them…

Considering that's Texas... probably more like 50.

The video game companies have a lot more to fear in this one,.methinks. lawmakers across the globe have microtransactions in their sights, and Blizzard has been getting heat from European legislators, too. Tencent having shares in a ton of video game companies won't help, either. Especially not the American ones, if…

They'll never do that. They'd sooner move the Rockets to China than pull out of the Great Red Market. They'll just drag their feet, do nothing, keep their heads down, and hope the hashtag next week is different. Best case scenario for the NBA is the CCP flattens HK and they can just go back to selling Yao Ming jerseys…

I came of age in the south playing baseball about 360 days a year during the heyday of the 90's Braves. Maddux, Glavone, Smoltz, Justice, McGriff, the whole thing. I don’t really care much to watch baseball after years in a city without a team, but still consider myself a fan and will watch a Braves game if it’s on.…

Not to mention, by injecting himself in the situation put of nowhere without anyone asking and offering up a magic bullet solution that would have had the real rescuers held off and waiting for Musk had the government listened to him, he could have made the situation much, much worse.
