Yes, thank you. I just don’t understand why so many people want to ignore the huge problems of TFA. The whole trilogy was fucked up from the very beginning.

This is terrible. Metacritic sucks compared to Gamerankings. It is missing tons of games, the website layout is horrible, and the search function is awful.

I would say it is a good game, but a bad Metroid game. Combat and gameplay in general was pretty fun, but it had its issues. Particularly how you had to stand still and switch to first person mode to use missiles, and the “pixel hunt” segments.

Because that is how life works?

The few times in history when a new QB has swooped in and legitimately revived an offense, it’s been a QB who was acquired to take the job anyway.

Casablanca. Classic movie from the 1940s.

At least it was better than The Force Awakens.

What is wrong with the playoffs? It is far easier to win as the higher seed anyway, so regular season success is already rewarded.

Thank you. I thought I was going to have to say this myself. That team got healthy just in time for the playoffs, and it was back to being the 04-05 juggernaut. Only this time they also had Wainwright closing games.

I used to buy EA games. Then they stopped supporting Nintendo consoles, so I don’t buy EA games anymore. They lost a customer.

How can you call the Gamecube controller “non-ergonomic"?  It is the most comfortable controller I have ever held.

This take aged like milk.

The refs fucked up by allowing that by both teams in Games 1 and 2. Now they seem afraid to call it.

It is impossible to tell from the front angle. You need a top down view to see if it actually completely crossed the line. On top of that, I think the whistle actually came before the last shove into Binnington’s pad. I don’t think it is legal to score by pushing the goalie into the net anyway.

Considering Boston was only called for one penalty all game, and the refs missed two tripping calls on them in the second period alone, I am not too broken up about them missing this penalty either.

I made this comment earlier in the playoffs, and it seems relevant here:

If you are going to look at it like that, then it is beyond time for this to finally go the Blues way.  This is the kind of crap that has been happening to the Blues for a fucking half century, so get the fuck out with your decades bull shit.

It has been brutal. 538 posted an article that has the Blues as the most underperforming team since 1990 in the NHL in terms of regular season performance vs number of championships.

That was crazy. Must have been how it felt watching Montreal in the 1950's before they changed the power play rule.

You know what would stop this type of inaction? Playing the game it was designed to be played. With ITEMS on.
