“The people who develop the single player modes are a completely separate team from the franchise devs in most cases. And those are completely different that the Ultimate mode team.”

The only thing I learned from playing this mode was just how much I miss an NCAA/College Football game.

Story mode in sports games is stupid. They could, instead, spend that time and money developing a better and more deep franchise mode, which has a lot stronger chance of getting people to buy the game. Nope. They don’t do that either. What does EA do? They work on MUT. Madden Ultimate Team. Or, as I like to call it…

Fixed this for you:

I love how usually the first people to go after a women’s appearance is almost always a guy who looks like Dana White or Donald Trump

Well, you have to consider that they have one of the best play by play announcers in Howie Rose and that makes watching them a lot more tolerable. 

No, that’s not right. The Knicks were perfectly in their rights to turn down the offer Lin got from the Rockets, especially since they were catering to Melo’s egotistical whims as Team Face Leader of the Madison Square Garden ™ Franchise©.

Carmelo was kind of a cranky dick to him, but otherwise I don’t think the Knicks really fucked up too badly (with Lin - they can be blamed heavily for almost everything else). He had a meniscus tear and missed the end of that season just 25 games into “Linsanity,” during which he’d already come back to earth a bit.…

That fucking ginger QB is Piggy.

the bengals essentially practice under a fucking interstate bridge anyway. nobody gives a shit about these poor souls. it’s like they’re banished to a prison colony where vontaze burfict is jack or ralph and i don’t remember lord of the flies all that well fuck it i’m gonna go smoke a bowl.

The NFL views itself as an economic war machine, and it’s enemy is the players. And host cities. And fans.

I guess you didn’t know we have alligators around here. Look — they dragged your extension cord onto the hood and chewed it all up into little pieces!

Wait, so they were “visiting a friend” when they noticed they were out of juice, and their friend wouldn’t let them leave the car there to charge? 

Interesting to read, thanks. I think I’ve seen this referred to before, but the language used is often such that I keep forgetting it.

Not to be pedantic, but its a caveat in how La Liga handles release clauses. A club doesn’t actually pay the release clause, the player does. This may seem like semantics, but it is an important distinction, especially in this case. If Griezmann triggered his release clause on or after July 1, it shouldn’t matter if he…

I’m curious how Atletico will manage to prove that the pre-agreement between Griezmann and Barca, which presumably was no more than just nod nod wink wink, was firmly in place before July 1st.

I went ~30 years ago and my first thought and most lasting memory about Yellowstone was how many signs that say (hehe) DON’T MOLEST THE BISON. Those signs were literally everywhere. Like - I guess they really mean this!

Sick flip tho
