The WC is lucrative for FIFA regardless of where it is located, so that doesn’t really hold up as an explainer IMO. Further, this doesn’t explain why they are trying so hard to police the puto chant—there aren’t any financial penalties from nation-states on that one!

It is just stunning how careful and conscientious FIFA acts in some ways (fines and policing of the puto chant; respecting international sanctions) while being so overtly corrupt and nonchalant in others (awarding WCs to Russia/Qatar despite blatant human rights violations).

These are good soccer takes.

(Geguri’s Briggy beatdown on Tracer was Sayaplaya, which doesn’t make it any less funny)

The Cardinals will never sign him, because he obviously doesn’t play The Right Way.

A lot of the “but he’s a rookie in the playoffs for the first time” apologetics fall flat to me when looking at Donovan Mitchell and Jayson Tatum, who not only continued to lead their teams, but were (or continue to be, in Tatum’s case) utterly dominant a times.

Well, Burks has also missed (collectively) about two full seasons due to injuries—and a big chunk of that was largely consecutive.

Looks like Meg Greenwell’s take on the recent Deadcast about Mike Diaper was victorious in the end.

My only concern with this new toy is that I’m afraid they won’t have incorporated Reaper’s recent changes. For instance, will the figurine’s shotguns reload after I spin him around in a death blossom?

Where are all the quotes from Steve Wiebe? Why isn’t anyone asking him for commentary? Or if they are, why isn’t he saying anything?

+1 for well-timed sexist/sexiest confusion

Well, except that I have a very unique problem. See, while each and every Overwatch map is littered with plentiful health packs, whenever I try to disengage and find one, a glitch in the fabric of the cosmos is activated with the effect of deleting every existing health pack. So, I hunt and hunt and wander and never…

+1 you sick bastard

I thought they were improving, too. Then I watched them against LA Gladiators last week and found myself wishing that Blizzard would institute a mercy rule in OWL. Elims were like 34-2 against on one of the maps.

As its the name of my sex-tape, my lawyers disagree.

We can’t all have takes as bad as this one—thanks for taking one for the whole team!

Yeah, I sort of actually admire their openness about the fact that it’s just a temporary thing. Brazil’s world cup facilities were also wasteful, but they were so disingenuous about it all by claiming ongoing use.

Okay, so now we’re making some progress. Thanks for clarifying that you were just blowing off steam, since your steam-blowing suggestion was the whole thing I was responding to. :) A few remaining things then:
1. As I see it, we basically agree as to Hanzo.
2. I agree that PotG for Widow is rare, and so it doesn’t…

I think you’ve really misunderstood my comment—apologies for articulating it poorly. Let me try again.

I think this frequently when I’m playing against her, but I always change my mind when I play as her. It absolutely needs to be that long (or, frankly, even longer) because her healing ability is contingent on damage-dealing. Unless they change 1) her healing beam so that it charges from her damage orbs, or 2) give…
