For all it’s frustration and flaws, Overwatch and Overwatch League were the best new competitive things my friend group and I got into in the last decade. I grew to feel the Fan Feels of the Fusion’s ups and downs as much as my favorite actual sports teams (go Birds), and I remember when they lost the championship

Back in 2005, I was on campus in January when classes were on break, and I was doing nothing but football practice stuff, lifting, going to the cafeteria, hanging out with other football guys (lots of Halo 2), and playing World of WarCraft. It was honestly the best time of my college years.

Oof, Dave.

Obviously you can read it literally as a remark against a group of people, but power dynamics make it a bit more complicated than saying something truly discriminatory about a protected or vulnerable class.”

I live in Minnesota and I haven’t heard the phrase “negligent homicide” in discussion of this or Noor’s case, so I looked it up. There’s no “negligent homicide” charges in Minnesota, that’s all covered by manslaughter charges. In fact of you google “negligent homicide Minnesota,” what pops up is 2nd degree

In 1998, ActiVision did a reboot/remake of Battlezone, the old arcade tank combat game. The new one was a hybrid RTS, hovertank piloting weirdo with a Cold War Turned Hot storyline, and I hadn’t played anything like it before or since. I never met anyone else who knows about it but some of you must, it got a sequel.

He was AD at Macalester, my alma mater, while I was on the football team there. He wasn’t necessarily the best for the job (women’s basketball withered and even went on hiatus for a few years due to institional neglect), but he was an extremely approachable, personable dude who loved being chatty with people. My Dad,

I had this idea for a Superman story about his day job, where he saves the day by reporting a story with his co-workers. And the more I thought about it, the more I realized it’s a Lois Lane story, where she’s the lead and one of her reporting team happens to be Superman. Superman’s greatest superpower is his

Superman gets a lot of hate for being overpowered to the point where he’s boring. But the best Superman stories aren’t about “can he win the fight?” they’re “is he doing the right thing?” and “can he, with all his power, accomplish what he wants?”

When I lived in Powderhorn, people who grew up in Blaine and Golden Valley would bug their eyes out when I told them that and be like “the ghetto?!?!” People around here don’t know what a ghetto is. If you walked around my block on a summer day, there'd be people outside grilling with their laughing kids and happy

I had to throw in the towel soon after the start of the second half. I wasn’t about to watch a second more of getting spitroasted by Brady/Gronk, or Mahomes getting pulverized into fine paste, than I absolutely had to. I had video games to play.

You made this profession look like the dream job I’m still looking up at and I hope you start a games vertical with Defector and hire me.

Unemployment assistance to states and loans to businesses which hopefully this time help out small businesses on life support and not, like, Goldman Sachs.

I do think that particular “made you look” hat is pretty funny though.

Plain strawberry no frosting, I will fight ALL of you.

C’MON AND RAISE UP

Oh man, thank you for reminding me of Petey Pablo.

Eagles fan here, and an important part of being a fan of something is owning its dumpster fires as well as its successes. So I’d like to add a few quick notes of context to Riley Cooper.
