Simple being just good enough to get an nhl min contract
Youn can make a lot of money by just being passable for a long period of time
but he's not passable
I don't expect much from the Bucs this year, but I'm also not gonna say they're gonna bottom out and only win like 4-5 games.
Yeah because he’s old now lol
Still teams like vet players who can grind
Even if they suck at everything else
Got to have the old grit and grind
hope he falls and lets us score tonight
Also some guys just get legacy deals
The whole NFC needs to get their act together. Need some young franchise QBs over there.
My way too early NFC south predictions: The Falcons find some way to bumble their way to first, New Orleans and Carolina are a toss up for second, Tampa Bay gets a big helping of Post Brady
I get the grind but he can barely stay on foot
Good enough lol
Old man Wayne Simmonds and Kyle Clifford were slow as fuck but they were physical so the leafs gave them contracts for yers
Despite being terrible players
it's difficult to not fall on ice

Classic raiders they just spin a wheel
Somehow its going to land on Ryan tannehill
And they’ll claim he can bring them a ring
surely they weren't this bad
I had a scenario in my mind where the Raiders moved up to one and then pick Will Levis, Hey, didn't say the Raiders weren't gonna be stupid here.
Oh they were real bad
I really wanna see who bites on Levis
Like. Nothing is for sure. But Levis feels so bust like man
One? They’ll draft a talented player with character problems
Who ends up running his way off their team in two years
Now if Al Davis was still alive, he'd moved up to get Anthony Richardson
If gruden was around he’d have traded derrick Carr for a third
Or you know, commits the worst vehicular manslaughter case Ive seen by a famous person
ukko pekka made a save 
can the raiders even afford to get lamar?
Like that organization ever thinks about the money
Pairing Lamar with Josh McDaniels feels. Wrong.
You know, they planned on moving on from Carr and yet feels like they still have no plan. Or maybe that plan was Tom Brady and of course the Raiders never have a plan B.
It would be just like Josh to bet on nearly 50 year old Tom Brady as your plan A

Saints getting Carr seems like a decent move for them
It's smoke and mirrors, dude.
You spelled Mac Jones incorrectly
Wonder what happens with Lamar
Clearly teams are just trying to make a point to force Lamar to demand less
Derek Carr isn't much of an upgrade from Dalton or Jameis. Sorry, he isn't.
And then they’ll snap him up when he’s at a lower price
come out of retirement and winning the whole thing
McDaniels loves his old pats QBs
The irony of if Lamar hit free agency they would all be throwing millions and millions at him
It’s just a farce
Raiders spent years trying to see if Carr can get back to his 2015/20016 form and it's simply not happening. He is what he is. A middle the field QB.
And BTW, Carr is gonna be playing for his first NFL HC. You know, the one who started that season 0-10.
Having Josh McDaniels did not help at all tho
Holy shit
He was like this before.
I forgot all about the Raiders Allen era
Allen 
Carr is simply not gonna get back to that level. Ever since he broke his leg at the end of 2016, he hasn't had that swagger that made him a MVP candidate.
fake allen
he's better than Daniel jones at least
This just feels like the Saints are denying again that they have to rebuild and are kicking the can down the road again.
There was a time that yeah obviously
in terms of throwing yes
yeah 100% fake
Idk man
It isn't that Carr is bad it's the Saints are spending a lot of money to bring a guy who quite frankly isn't much better than both Dalton or Jameis Winston who are on the depth chart
But that's what I mean
I don't think Daniel Jones is that much worse than either of those guys
Does he deserve what the Giants gave him? God no
Jones has legs.
maybe D. Jones improves into an mvp candidate and proves me wrong 
But as a thrower, eh... get him a WR1 and see what happens.
he'll be the best in the world by the end of next season
i hope sam howell becomes a great qb
But I don't see current day Derek Carr and current Daniel Jones having a chasm of talent between the two
It's more like a puddle to me atm
Like the biggest problem for Carr is he can be really stupid with the ball. And the fact that the dude shuts down a lot.
As much as the blame is on McDaniels for blowing all those leads last season. Carr was also part of it. He was very unclutch.
Would you put Cousins and Dak above carr right?
Dak is close to Carr but he also has better legs.
I'd put them above Carr
I think Cousins is above Carr.
I think ever since Carr's 2014 injury he hasn't been a qb that scares you
Was it 16?
I can't remember which year
But either way there was definitely a moment between 14-16 where he just regressed
I know this first hand because the QB I saw torch the Bucs D in OT all those years ago and the one now are two different QBs.
ukko pekka just made a second save, I'm so proud 
Speaking of the bucs who are they going with QB next year?
Most likely Trask as a game manager.
is he any good?
IDK
The dude has barely had any reps with the 1st stringers.
they still have blaine gabbert right?
Nope.
Trask is currently the only QB on the depth chart rn
Not doubt though that a Jacoby Brissett or Dalton may come in at a cheap price. IDK.
Isn't Gardner Minshew gonna be a free agent?
I believe so
A lot of unknowns at qb in the nfc
IDK if Jimmy G will come in cheap. That cap is still a problem.
Lance/purdy, trask, riddler, love
Riddler??
So who are the falcons going to have at qb
The Falcons QB? Eh, not enough time to say.
Ridder lol
I like Riddler better lmao
if the jets get rodgers then i can see the panthers getting jimmy g
Falcons are really the only team in the NFC South IDK what the fuck they're doing.
Point is the nfc has a lack of actually good young QBs
Falcons and panthers gonna bid for Jimmy G 
Are they gonna trade up for a QB, are they going with Ridder for another year and hope to get a QB in the next draft?
You know its bad when purdy is arguably the best young prospect besides fields
Then you question if Arthur Smith will be HC next year. Sorry, I don't like him. The dude is suppose to be an offensive guru and yet Pitts isn't the main vocal point of the offense.
Falcons could get Minshew tbh
Commanders, Vikings,Panthers, Falcons are complete unknowns
I really don’t see how then vikings are happy with Kirk
Dude, if they're looking at Minshew they might have well resigned Mariota
I don’t see them not going with a young qb
They are a young team
Who should be looking to rebuild
I just see no direction for ATL.
do you think Cousins gets traded?
They are but i could see them maybe trying something else
But that’d involve having actual guts
i heard rumors that Stafford might retire. you think that's true or nah?
Nah
They're another team in the NFC that just refuses to go full rebuild and are still trying to hang onto that 2017 team that went into the NFCC.
I think he has more in the tank but maybe that’s me being spoiled from rodgers and Brady
How old is stafford
Stafford has been more injured than those 2 tho
I really do hate teams that try to "retool" things when the foundation is flawed.
stafford is 35
Like at the eye test this was the best season the Vikings have had since 2017. But you just knew something was wrong and a lot of people did, that's why many picked the Giants and were rewarded for that gut feeling.
they had the worst defense in the league right?
maybe brian flores improves it a ton hard to be any worse than last year.
I still think even with a better defense, the Vikings have hit their celling and it's not gonna change until they address the most important position on the offense in Cousins.
He's good, but do you really trust him to win a SB title at this point?
Cousins and Dak are very similar at this point.
Personally, I admit, the QBs I look for are on the ones that can march down the field and can score the game winning TD often. With QBs like Dak or Kirk, they put up a lot of numbers but I would not trust either of them to score a TD in crunch time when it matters most.
Or Carr
Carr used to be able too. That's why I loved him for that short while.
Yeah but he can’t anymore
Stafford can do that when he's healthy.
I'd trust him more than both Dak or Kirk. But he's also inconsistent. Sometimes he does well sometimes he doesn't.
Jimmy g is a good QB that wins a lot but he's made of glass
This is why I think Joe Burrow is when you look at the facts is the best QB in the NFL rn IMO. Dude just makes last minute drives effortlessly it seems.
Better than Mahomes???
Mahomes is up there too.
maybe we beat the icelanders
After burrow blew so many in the playoffs
After he couldn’t do it against the rams or chiefs
Dude put the Chiefs in FG range with 10 secs left, he's definitely clutch.
Mahomes is the best imo. Burrow is number 2.
Mahomes 1 yeah
Tbh just mahomes and burrow right now
Can’t trust other young QBs in the clutch
Technically he did put the Bengals in a position to win the SB if Donald wasn't so good.
we're the only team with 5 20+ goalscorers
He still didn’t do it
Keep forgetting Chase was wide open.
And everyone knows how good donald is
Well he was wide open because donland couldn’t give him space
So throwing like 5 straight incompletions at the end of the game wasn’t in his control?
Like you knew Burrow had something and the limitations of the team caught up with him
Damn Joe Mixon shot at children?
Not like Kirk this past post season where he threw a check down pass on 4th and long when it mattered most
I'd say they're both hand and hand in this case.
At the end of the day, Burrow bested him more as of now.
Which Mahomes vs Burrow is already more interesting than Brady vs Manning. Because both QBs don't choke
burrow has better receivers tho than mahomes and mahomes might lose juju in free agency
Friends
Have you ever accepted the most dominant athlete in our current time into your life
hello friend
I think it's pointless to say who's better overall. Like, some people will build a team around Mahomes. I on the other hand would build around Burrow. That's just me.
I have accepted ronnie yes

That all I needed to hear man
oh you meant mcsauce
That's just unfair.
Do you consider Josh Allen number 3 behind those 2?
McSauce dude
I'm a Josh Allen simp. But if I had to go off facts alone. He's number 3 rn.
Just has those Brett Favre tendencies
When you said our current time I thought someone who has dominated their sport for the past couple of years like ronnie
i think Justin Herbert improves next season to be near or at a MVP
That's hoping Brandon Staley doesn't gamble all that away.
Yeah, true, I should’ve said like.. today or something
Or just hockey idk
Like for real, please ban the Chargers from ever having superstar QBs again.
At least till Spanos sells or dies.
yeah maybe, but that would be tage
Dude Tage is filthy
still hasn't scored today
He’s going to hit 50
McDavid is the Mike Trout of his sport and just like Trout, he's stuck on a team that refuses to help him.
There’s plenty of solid players who have played that haven’t hit 50 in their careers
he has leon
I was just saying to someone else
Hockey and baseball enthusiasts could probably relate to McDavid / Trout legacy
And Leon is like Ohtani. Well, Ohtani's much more of a superstar than Leon but he's trapped on that team too.
Yeah I won’t disagree w this
don't discredit how much leon does to allow mcsauce to shine
I’m a huuuge Leon fan, doesn’t go unnoticed. He dragged them two years ago
Leon isn't the unicorn like Ohtani is though. The dude can pitch and hit at an elite level.
He’s elite but yeah ^^ this. There’s some things in sport not worth comparing to
Word? Yeah he’s on another level completely.. it’s really hard to compare anything off the top of my head
Leon would be the face of a franchise if he wasn't with McDavid. It's like Scotty Pippen and MJ.
mcsauce can be pippen
McDavid is Michael Jordan. And Pippen is Leon.
And speaking of more reasons to feel bad for McDavid and Leon, just wait for the next 2 expansion teams come in. All that potential depth off to ATL and HOU.
If that's what you enjoy. I prefer leon's dedication, he's more complete, mcsauce is amazing on the offense but leon can also defend
you get a penalty for breaking someone's stick
No doubt though that McDavid is the show there.
Leon just does the little things that puts it all together.
I’m just a little worried about these expansion teams
These feel forced. The others didn’t. There was a 2 team hole in the west and those locations were perfect fits
IDK why the NHL wants to do it.
Acting like their sport is bring more people in then dropping out.
yeah he's the star but my heart always goes for the player who does the sacrifice you know. It's the way I was raised. but I can recognize that mcsauce is really good
Doesn't help when ESPN's most popular show is actively disrespecting the sport
Hahaha honestly the league probably just thinks in simple terms .. more teams = more revenue, duhhh
ATL actually makes a little sense though. NHL on TNT HQs is just right there.
after the kraken's graffitti S symbol I'm worried
Well there’s more home games and more jersey sales and and and and
Not for nothing but also dilutes the league
I also agree with ATL. I also kinda want to see a southeast division back
Look at the West and makes you wonder, is this really a good idea?
Houston does deserve a NHL team though. They've been begging for one for awhile now.
begging for one isn't enough
The potential is just too big there
If only there was a team with an already done 20k stadium waiting in line 
Here's an easy argument for this one. Houston, 8th largest market in the country.
I'm going to go cope
I’m sorry lmaooo
I’m hoping they give QC a tournament some time, I’d go. But would have to be a WJC I imagine
At this point, the likelihood of the Nordiques coming back is as likely as the Montreal Expos.
A Houston / Dallas hockey rivalry would be cool
I really want to see that.
what's that?
Aeros is a poor name though with the Jets in the league
hopefully they keep the space theme
Feel like Texas sports are much better when there's a in state rivalry in them
Ideally they keep the space them lol
the expos are trash though
Cause the only host the men’s WC in Europe
Those former Expos won a WS not too long ago BTW
So really WJC would be the only tournament they give to Canada and then we’d have to hope that QC specifically gets the bid. They host it all over so
Do the remparts play in that arena ??
oh but that's just a coping thing, we don't need pity, keep that in europe
Hey man, it’s not bad lol I watch every year
yeah they use it since they failed the bid to be in the nhl
beautiful stadium, way better than the garbage we have in montreal
It does look nice tbh
Ironically, the main reason the Nordiques left was because they couldn't get that new arena in time.
Colombia lost the bid for a copa america and we got the u17 feminine copa america instead, cool tournament but it's not as good
It’s just not the same, but still cool to see
yeah but you can't compare the two. an nhl team would be something big, it would change history. that world cup would just be a temporary thing
Kyle Kuzma thought he was Steph Curry
when you go near it if there wasn't a canadiens symbol I would not know it was their arema
looks like a random building from the outside
The Canucks arena is a bit like that
You’d think it’s just an office building
canadian teams need to learn from quebec
It's right near the sky train too so it's like underneath the rails a bit
But MTL has that little alley with all the statues and names
And they have a statue outside the front
the inside is beautiful
Inside is old school af
and those statues in winter you barely see them
I was there last month, couldn't find them
Me at rec basketball
Hm wonder why, maybe they put tarps on them
talking about stadiums, have a question about west ham
But they’re in the alley. If you hit the train station you’ve gone too far
I've seen fans complaining about london stadium, is it really that bad?
Same w the team store on the other side. And idk I’ve never been to London stadium
I’ll take the peoples word on it though. Way too many people say it for it to be false. I think for my American eyes it’s probably fine
But that’s because I’ve been to NFL games so that capacity is somewhat normal to me
I drove there, parked in the alley, didn't see them
Whereas in England there’s still so many stadiums that are older and have that feel like the stands are almost hugging the pitch
Leafs just scored late
So on the left of this picture is the train station and across the street from the station is the stone church
To the right of this picture is the entrance to the building and then also eventually that tall ass McDonalds lol
they build stadiums like a pit so that fans feel closer
Look into that little road and look to the right, there’s 4 of them lol
Hey, and against his former team. 
they're so small and cute, I was looking for more big
we may be trailing again, but the guy kicked the puck
That was John Tavares' favorite guy when he was with the Isles.
guy lift his leg and pushed it in, how is it not a kick
he's a nice guy, true captain
bullshit goal
no way that's a goal
the guy does a kicking motion
Dude looks like he’s built to be an nfl linesman
@robust grotto Hey, your old friend Tony DeAngelo just cheap shot a Bolts player and got a major for it. lol
too good for that
Tony DeAngelo just got dogpiled by every single player on the Lightning.
Nah
Because tony de Angelo sucks
And he should be fired
He cheap shot a Bolts player before that BTW
Hope a car cheap shots him in the parking lot
Literally there was a reason all of them pile on him.
He plays in philly. What do ya expect
Anyone that has spent the entirety of their life on EARTH KNOWS THIS IS A KICKING MOTION
Are there seriously Islanders fans out there that can honestly tell me they think this should count as a good goal???????
Hey that’s rude. I hope he gets run over a zamboni
Philly is a terribly appropriate home for a player like him
can someone explain this
The dude is a walking cancer to a team's locker room.
they really don't want us to miss the playoffs
Finally! The Bolts win a game this fucking month.
goodbye playoffs for us
well done
If you're wondering why the Lightning players were so upset with Tony DeAngelo, well...
Fucking thug.
my bad, he deserved it
Holy fuck
it's not fair
how much do we have to pay to be treated equally
There’s a difference between being physical and a rat
NASCAR overtime stinks
They should do something else
Why are there 5 laps left but its overtime?
Overtime is only two laps
Ah, the overtime line. The NASCAR version of Shootouts.
Also the choose rule sucks
@rustic mountain leafs win woooo
Did you watch any part of it?
Because there has to be a clear racer at first place to declare a winner. It's as stupid as it sounds.
They have cameras
It is because they still use who’s first at a caution if there’s a flag and overtime doesn’t start again
This vid still ages well 6 years later

Lolcow (n) - A person or group of people laughed at for actions that they take, despite not trying to be funny. They may try to take themselves seriously, but they are often "milked" for laughs with or without their knowledge.
We all know that people or teams can be quality lolcows to mock and lampoon, but what happens when an entire organizati...
The sport would be so much better if they just had start to end racing
I would've loved to to live in an era of NASCAR pre 04 where there weren't any forced gimmicks and playoff systems.
Just caught highlights
Matthews winning it for us
What a lad
Finally scoring goals
Aka what a race actually is
Finishing first
It’s like having a 800 m but then stopping for a break every 200 m
My west team being my west team
For water and new shoes
Looking at how much more simple the F1 rules are. I can understand why it's gotten so much more popular.
Sprint racing is awfullll
Anything is better than segmented fucking racing.
It is a segment
Damn
It’s a completely separate race
That determines the grid positions for the main race
And there’s points for it
Oh and qualifying is Friday instead of Saturday which determines the grid for the sprint race
But they still give an award for historical reasons for winning Friday qu’Ali
Which they called speed king or something like that last season
Hey, at least it's on a separate day
Just wait till they add more of them.
About to kill motorsports popularity entirely at this rate.
The ironic part is like nascar they wanted to do it to make it more popular
Since they wanted meaningful action on every day of the race weekend
Oh and they screwed with press conferences a bit before
Making them Friday instead of Thursday or something liken that
Poor souls should've realized NASCAR was never gonna to appeal to a mass audience.
They should have
Instead they decided to alienate their existing audience.
I really dislike gimmicks in racing. It’s a race, whoever wins wins
Its happening in the NHL, it's happening in the MLB. You can tell how great leadership is when they're not looking at themselves and instead looking at the sport.
I wish more people were into the racing I like man
Which is?
Fuckin F-Zero
Oh lol
COME ON NINTENDO GIVE ME F ZERO
I’d buy that if they sold it for the switch
YOU GOT BOOST POWER!

Super Mario Party is actually really fun
Speaking of old games wish they’d make more earthbound games
Really phone???
Hahahah autocorrect sucks
GX was evil.
GX was the N64 one yeah?
Gamecube
Which was N64
X
I was actually born on the day F Zero X came to the US.
I'm 24 mate
I often feel old myself. funny enough.
Does that make me an infant?
My favorite childhood hockey player was Martin St. Louis. He's now a HC for the Habs.
And I am from the beginning of the world
Ironically that feels like how many teenagers/young adults think
When I started as a mod I was like 28 or so
Can’t say how many people i know who were panicking about hs grades and which uni they got into
And people thought I was as old as the dust lol
Lol people probably still do
Oh they 100% do
I was on the internet when I was the younger generation compared to people from the 80s. Now there's people who weren't even born when Dave Andreychuk raised the cup for the Bolts in 04.
Dude I know it's odd
Even better they are almost 18 years old
Yeah you’re a role model to the young lads of the server
I would say no lmao
I would not call myself a role model either
But you’re young kimmy
I am a role model in what you shouldn't do before you get to 30 all besides committing major crimes
No doubt about that. I was 17 just about to turn 18 when I made this account.
I fucked up my high school hard, dropped out of college, and didn't really get my career path til around 26

I didn't go to college. For what I want to do, I didn't feel like being in debt for most of my 20s.
Idk if I’ll finish uni or not
I made mine 3 years ago
Didn’t drop out though.
Just personal issues
I mean fair enough
I’m lucky enough that my parents can afford it
So might as well at least try
I’ll try to finish it but it’s tough
Good luck man
You too
I know someone who was still studying and he was like 32
Oh I dropped out because I had to pay for it myself and I just hated it tbh
I’d drop out if i had to pay for it also
It's not for everyone, I realized that early on going through the process.
Part of the reason I messed up high school is my dad told me early on, like middle school, that he would not pay a dime of my college
That’s rough
Okay that’s even worse wtf
Yeah he really gave me a whole leg up lmao
More like dragged you down into the mud
A good mate of mine is 29 and just had his second kid and is in first year like me
He says shit like "I didnt need college and it's a scam. If you wanna go get the grades"
Yeah the nice thing about uni is the difference in ages
So I went "shit id he doesn't care why should I"
Yeah there’s oldies like me and some 18 year old kids
Thé dumbest part about that is how is anyone supposed to function while working to pay for college and get good grades at the same time
Hi its me a 18 + 1 year old kid
Nah I’ve seen actual kids lol
Saw a kid walking around campus and looked like a student
Dude can’t have been older than like 13
I could've gone to college for art, well I was actually doing college art in high school but there's some things you don't need to learn with the price it is.
Oh art i get it. Idk how valuable a degree in that is
The internet is a wonderful place that completely throws certain things in collage out of the window
Man youn could show off some of your art if you still do it
Oh i know. My profs have even said that the best skill is how to google things lmao
And that we can learn more by looking at YouTube
I'm currently in the process of creating a light novel at the moment.

That’s dope.
Holy shit that rocks siren
I'm not 100% there yet. But I've been working on it since my last days in high school.
Dang
I wish i could find something like that
……. What in the world. Damn, I thought you were an artist
Oh for sure
Would be super interested
I’m shocked
Art is kinda my secondary thing.
It's always those Paper Mario lovers who are so artistic
Paper Mario looks cool. Nintendo should make it for the switch
If only they released DLC. COME ON NINTENDO
In geology we don’t have access to a lot of stuff so a degree is still the only way to go to learn about rocks
Wow
My favourite mario game I’ve seen though has to be galaxy
Yeah, I always make it a rule that all my PFPs have to be drawn by me.

Pog
I am glad I own my own copy. That thing is expensive
When you finish it let me know
I might paint mine later on
But it isn’t good enough rn
Tell us the plot and the setting.
It's a gem of my physical collection rn
Nope. I like to keep that secret. lol
What’s that?
Nice. I question every day what’s even the point of doing a degree is cs beyond that most jobs require one
It's a video game
It kind of reminds me of the good ole days of Paper Mario. I can’t believe they butchered the series.
Paper Mario and the Thousand Year Door
Yeah please do, no spoilers 
Of course. I figured
Not only butchered but also
Like confirmation that they will never make it like they used to
Any art related to sports?
You like programming?
No i like money
It’s ridiculous man.
And not being broke
Glad I got the N64 one, TTYD, and Super Paper Mario
Logos, emblems uniform designs. Etc etc
Manga about sports
That’s about it
I did a Blake Snell drawing. But that's in storage rn
Oh cool
Fair enough
I grew to like super paper Mario more. It’s a solid game.
Very much so
My parents do it so easiest path rn

I’ll see after a bit
Realistic drawings take a lot of time, man. I'm more of that manga/anime look which would give a college art teacher a heart attack.
I tried drawing a sports manga, but my arts skills are non existing
And tbh no idea what Tom study otherwise
Oh it does. I’ve given up on that
Well not drawings but paintings
I prefer reading sports manga instead
I liked Haikyuu, want to read Eyeshield 21
I can't believe this channel is talking about PM rn. Never would've thought I'd see the day. lol
Tbf Siren it's really fresh in my mind
Considering what I had to pay to get it

What passions do you have, like have you had any specific classes you’ve enjoyed in your program that you would like to expand on. Like me I had one geology class as an optional and now I’m studying that
Hahahah nothing lol
Did advanced program in high school so no real choices lmao
Uni? In my one year not really no
I'm a head mod in a Nintendo Youtuber's Discord server that funny enough I found through PM drama.
Just did some programming,some business, some math
I’ve read both. Both are good.
Hahahah video game drama is fun
Nintendo YouTuber
Especially speedruns
Which one if I may ask?
SuperMarioT
You didn’t have science classes?
I'll give E21 a shot soooon
In uni? Nope
Read slam dunk
It is not like the American football we know of. I’ll tell you that much.
Kinda old but its really good
My snooker gag manga couldn’t come to life

That can be a good thing lol
I’ve read it. Fantastic
Slam Dunk is on the list too
It is. Just be aware of that
It's so hard to like divide up what I want to give attention to. Manga, games, movies. I have such long tbd lists for all 3
Sports manga have never really clicked with me, Well, there was The Prince of Tennis back when I watched Toonami. But that was like 16 years ago at best.
What about interests from the outside world
Have you read grand blue?
Not right now
That may convince you otherwise
Haikyuu goated
Haha i do with manga also
And movies but i havden’t watched much
Netflix has too many restrictions
Oh that’s cool
I really like having physical stuff actually
I do also but haven’t bought any in forever
Well my family hasn’t
I know it isn't feasible for everyone or for everything, but I really wanna get every game movie and volume of manga that I possibly can
I’ve just been rewatching shows on Netflix recently, don’t have anything interesting lately to get me into
I try to have physical copies of all my switch games
Now these days Blu Rays and DVDs are secondary. But you soon appreciate them when there's a Hurricane and the power and internet goes out for awhile.
I try to collect manga volumes but it takes so much space and money
Yeah and they feel nice
I am trying to sew up my n64 collection and gba collection so I can cut the NSO subscription man
I feel it. Like I said, I know it isnt feasible for everyone, but I am in a good situation for it rn
I use NSO to play some of the more out of reach titles
The problem with anime dvd collecting is the pricing. Now it isn't as bad as it was back in the 2000s when it cost 40 dollars for 5 episodes of YuYu Hakusho. But it's still a pretty expensive hobby.
And my parents wouldn’t exactly be happy with the amount of money it costs
Oh i don’t have anime dvds
I just need Mario Golf and Kirby 64 and my n64 collection will be where I want it to
I just watched pirated Pokémon on YouTube lol

Yehh I admit that shit is hard
I have my favorite anime on blu ray and One Piece I only read the manga so
Oh my N64 collection is my pride and joy. I still have games that I got at Kmart in bargain bins like 19 years ago that are now worth 60-80 dollars online.
My PS1-PS3 collection would probably be my pride and joy
Those 3 consoles are my 3 favorites man
I have around 160 volumes right now
The strange feeling when everyone but you owned a PS2.
Might get more later
I think I am at like 600 something I can't remember
Shadow I was in the opposite boat. Everyone I knew had a gamecube
I had a ps2 lmao
My brother owned a wii, game boy,game cube and ps3
Nice nicee
I had a GCN and OG Xbox.
None of them seem to work right now though
I have all of it now (or at least means to play it all now)
Only used Nintendo handhelds myself before the switch
But back then sony kid
Never used an Xbox
I like to have one console for most things. i'm no fanboy, but if I owned a PS5 now it would be a paperweight on my stand.
Oh mine is lol
My ps5 is essentially my ps4
Outside RE Village, Ragnarok, and a Ratchet and Clank game I care not for
But RE4 remake VERY soon so excited
It's been an abusive relationship with me and Microsoft the last 10 years now
I can relate with windows
The drama of the Xbox One, your favorite Xbox IP Fable's new game getting cancelled. Being told your console has no games.
That’s amazing, my goal is to reach a thousand one day
I used to have that goal but I found myself collecting stuff I didnt care for
I might try to get every one piece volume once it ends
So I made a new goal for all my collecting and it's just get what you think looks cool
And just hope that they’ll have sets at the end so i don’t have to find old sets
That is one thing I am happy about, I am up to date on my OP collection
Yeah lmao. It’s going to be pricy to find early volumes
I gave up on retro collecting when I saw the prices starting to spike. The fact that I saved all my GCN games I got as a kid is a miracle.
I thought about owning one, but it's too much
Yep its just harder and harder
Yeah for sure, I only buy mangas I enjoy (although I sometimes buy mangas for the covers
)
I wish I can say that when I sold off all the pokemon ones I owned.....
I am like this fucking close to being done with all the retro games I want
Manga covers are so important lol
So I am just swallowing the pill and then never selling again
Really the main reason i buy manga if i do
I bought a manga 21 volumes last month, beautiful covers but it’s so bad
I have some physical light novels. Stuff like Konosuba, Toradora, etc. But I often prefer getting them digital for that specific media.
If it's a game or movie, I make a back up copy. If it is any book, I am happy with just that
I fully embraced emulation
I don’t know how to do emulation
You know how complicated it is to get a decent picture in N64 games. Like OMG.
It's not hard, hell if you have an android phone you can do a lot
Maybei’ll try with my steam deck sometime
Is emulation playing a console game on a computer?
That is a perfect device to do it with
Yep
one way
Emulation is very simple. You got roms and you got an emulator.
Really just playing it on any device that it can’t be natively played on
Through an emulator
Nintendo when making the N64. "Why not just use anti aliasing. Like EVERYWHERE"
I used that once for a Pokémon game but I didn’t like the game so I stopped using that. I don’t game so much these days
Yeah i played a bit of emulated emerald when i was younger
And don't get me started with GCN component cables. I remember seeing them once when I was a little kid and now you can't get one without spending at least 200 dollars.
They went up that much. Damn. I own them and didn't know
They're rare.
Like, when I saw them it had to be at least 2003. And after that Nintendo even removed the component cable port on the later GCN models.
Part of the problem is that after covid EVERYONE is into retro gaming now
And you got places like retro stores jacking up the price so hard
I saw a retro store who wanted 250 dollars for the thousand year door
Fucking. No.
Got that for Christmas all those years ago. All for a plastic case with a mini disc inside it.
PC gaming also became popular as well after that.
It did
Jacked up the prices
Exactly and like even if you go by pricecharting and what not, people are charging so much more than they should
Like on average Ive seen at least 20 bucks more
Imagine if we did this for manga, you'd never hear the end of it.
Yeah idk if I want to build a pc with the price of parts now
So expensive
Especially gpus
getting a ps5 or xbox series x is better for your buck honestly
For sure yeah at this point
I just have a Series X for loyalty. That's all that drives me to getting them these days.
At this point yeah
Yeah with online services if you have a pc then it doesn’t make much sense
For something new for sure
The PC I have now is considered a gaming PC that was made in 2017. But to be real, I really only benefitted from the 16GBs of ram when drawing in Clip Studio. lol
Some manga volumes are being sold so much more than they’re worth
People bought all the French volume 100 special edition of one piece and were selling them in hundreds of dollars
Assholes
That's what we call scalpers
Same thing for trying to get a copy of a shonen jump magazine from Japan for chapter 1000
That's the same shit people were doing with PS5s for a few years. Just bots buying everything faster than a human can react.
Living in Quebec we basically get the scraps people don’t buy in France
So all the special editions are impossible to find
All this talk made me forget to post this shit result
of course the isles are better for the league in the playoffs
Can't miss their chance of losing to the Bolts in the 3rd round for the 3rd time in a row.
Do you like their chances to get to the final
I believe in your maple leafs man. THEYLL WIN A SERIES
I can only hope.
I would be content
They’ve won championships already
And it seems like the Avs are doing well again anyways this year
God, it's true. But it's like a drug. You just want more and more.
Also I don't feel like being called the first team to lose to the Leafs in the first round in over 19 years.
Hahaha you almost were
It's not gonna be 2019 Blue Jackets humiliation bad but it's like the team that loses to the Yanks to go to the WS. Or the team that loses to the Cowboys to make it to the NFCC game. You don't want to be the one.
I want to die
Hey, at least you didn't lose 4 in a row to the Bolts. Oh, hi, Rangers.
Panthers were the biggest clowns
Kuch and Colton broke them in game 2
Still think they haven't recovered fully even when they're still fighting for a WC spot rn
Oh someone just explained the rule to me it makes sense
Apparently it’s not a kick, it’s a work of art
Considering how much the hockey gods hate them I wouldn’t be shocked
Sabres hopefully have more stories to tell this season
That’s not a kick
1 point behind those cheating bastards
No they’ll be tied and lose due to a tiebreak
Solely because of the loss to the isles
It’s not just that but if we finish right behind the Icelanders I’ll be mad
sevilla and valencia being in the relegation zone is so weird icl
Yeah lol
Sociedad are good instead of them
Wtf
The relegation zone is so tight
Diff between 19 and 11 is 7 points
Watch out @BellinghamJude he’s a crazy man 😂😂
Yoo ma boy Goga Bitadze put in that work
12 points 8 rebounds (5 offensive)
@robust grotto someone just explained me toronto's decision for the icelanders goal yesterday. Apparently he moved his leg to control the puck and not kick it. Not sure what difference it makes but that's their explanation
I’ll be honest I didn’t see the play but this explanation makes sense to me
They are two different things. Think of it with a football. It’s one thing to control the ball with a touch and another thing to fully kick it
it looked like a kick to me, and even if it's not a swing isn't it still a movement to redirect the puck towards the goal in the end?
If the refs called it every way that time I’d be happier
Think they look more for a distinct kicking motion
Where like you clearly kick it
I see, that's unfortunate
It’s really for safety reasons
Annoying but is what it is
Don’t want people to be kicking skates into other people’s bodies
I just don't think they would have reviewed it the other way around
they didn't give two high sticks
Even worse when you know it's in toronto
Before you say that the nhl loves suspending leafs players
and we're rivals
they favour the teams that bring in money I guess
Thé leafs do and they don’t
Idk ifthe nhl refs favour many teams
They just seem to suck in general
Feels like I’ve heard every fan base complain about how shit the refs are
you need the money yourself, to their pockets
I feel as if we always get the short end of the stick. haven't seen the refs give us anything in our favour this season
Hahahah i wish
If the leafs could bribe the refs then why hacvenb’t they won a round
Clearly the league would love to see the leafs make a deep run
Since it brings them a ton of popularity and money
And media attention
Yeah the refs hate buffalo
No surprise there
Maybe they don’t
Duh they don’t lol
The refs just have outcomes they prefer
But really they are just dumbasses who try to balance bad calls and fouls with other bad calls and fouls
Refs have biases towards certain players. You're known for being an active dick on the ice, the refs will give you less breaks.
The refs would just buy nicer suits
If only the nba did that
Swear they do the opposite sometimes
We don’t and it still happens
Morris brothers should have suspended long ago for their bullshit
Draymond gets to scream at the refs and not get a tech
Don’t see pat bev getting many techs despite being a notorious rat
Trust me the Bolts also don't get enough calls either. The Panthers a few years ago would hold and rough players with no calls.
They still can’t beat the Bolts in the playoffs
Because we have this thing called a PP. lol
And they have a thing called a PP for the other team
The refs have allowed so much toughness from Boston this season
Don't worry, the way they're going they won't see the second round hopefully.
Of course it will probably be the Isles. 
I would be so happy that i wouldn’t care if the leafs didn’t win a first round for the next five years
For them to lose in the first round and then go into a rebuild would make my year
"Do you know how maddeningly, how sickening it is as a Leafs fan to watch Tuukka Rask make a save, they go to the TV panel and it's Andrew Raycroft breaking it down, and they shift the camera up to the Bruins' management box to see their reaction to the whole thing, AND JOHN FERGUSON JR. IS UP THERE!" - Dangle
We’re too young to beat them in the first round
Good thing rask is retired
So i don’t have to hear about him again
Of all teams to be treaded to had to be the bruins
I’m trying my best to not get caught up in rivalries but its hard to not hate the bruins and habs
Especially after the utter humiliation that was the cn tower turning habs red
I don’t know if I’ll ever be able to forgive the habs for that again
UCL predictions yo?
Crap ror has a broken finger dang that sucks
I'm going Spurs Bayern
Not really lol
is he an academy player
never seem him
dude went from city bench to bayern bench lol

being benched by some back up academy player is crazy
still one of the most bewildering transfers this season
cancelo?
yeah
🚨 Tottenham-Milan will now kick-off at 8:10pm due to both teams arriving late at the stadium.
lol
same thing happened yesterday with the Chelsea game
Damn
game time
sorry to hear
Same
It’s been ages since there’s been a penalty shootout in the ucl from what I can remember
Would be a good chance today if things stay tight
Holy
goal line save from de ligt
Sommer fucked up but de ligt saved his ass
Musiala is so good man
LOL
What is this guy doing
