    Pandemic Baseball 2020

    It would be great timing for the Yankees if some of their big names start getting healthy now and they go on a run in the postseason. It wouldn't shock me... but it's not what I want to see! Maybe this will finally be the year for this Dodgers team that has consistently been one of the best teams in the MLB for a few years now? I'm not really cheering for them, but they have enough players that I like that I wouldn't mind if they take the World Series. Once the Jays are out of the picture, I will be jumping on the San Diego bandwagon (I hope I didn't just put a hex on them)

    It's comforting to know that some things are still normal in 2020

    It feels like everyday for the past week I've seen a new notification from the MLB app about teams clinching the Postseason. The Rays have clinched, the A's, the Twins, the Dads, the Yankees... meanwhile the Blue Jays just kept lose lose losing The finally won a game yesterday - phew - and are still looking fairly safe for a Wild Card spot. But they really can't afford another big losing streak

    [09/18/2020] Weekly What're You Playing?

    I have officially played a game Banged out a few levels in Captain Toad this morning. Bought this for the kiddo well over a year ago, and neither of us has played it much since doing the first few levels together. I'm going to approach it as a fun pick-up-and-play game, do a couple levels here and there, kind of thing. No sweating about getting all the collectables, no re-doing levels, just having some fun with it. Between the wife and kids, I can't do anything for more than 15-20 minutes before somebody interrupts me anyway... I can't get obsessive over this stuff like I used to. Also got a few rhythm games on my wishlist that I'm patiently waiting for price drops on

    Let's be honest: PS5 preorders could have gone a lot worse and you guys would still line up to buy the damn things anyways

    This thing is going for $499.99 (digital ed.) / $629.99 in Canadian funbucks And just to compare: Apparently the Xbox Series S / X will be priced at $379.99 / $599.99

    Fall Anime 2020

    We were supposed to get the final season of Attack on Titan this fall I had a look at the chart a few days ago. I didn't really see anything worth looking forward to. Guess I'll wait and see what Crunchyroll will have and try some new shows out if I get really bored.

    That 16 run lead was unblowable Their hitters still had time to pile on some more runs if they really needed to.

    It was a pretty good run for the 3DS, and it ended up sticking around a bit longer than most would have thought after the Switch was released.

    The Yankees really kicked the shit out of the Jays this week The scores were 20-6, 13-2, and 10-7. Lots of homeruns were hit against Jays pitching. Last night the Yanks hit 5 homers in a single inning! Ugh.
  17. I honestly can't tell if Ma was being serious or sarcastic. If it's the former, then I want to see some specific examples of how people out east have poorer manners than westerners (Obviously it's all just silliness, like Slix said, there are all kinds of different people everywhere... you can't really generalize about whole regions / groups of people like that... or maybe you can )

    Are Sony and MS trying to out-ugly each other with these dumb looking new consoles

    Yeah, this is definitely the summer of the bullpen. What I'd like to see when it comes to position players pitching, is the team on the other side of the blowout also putting a position player out on the mound. When the Yanks were were up like 19-3 last night and they pulled their starter, why even bother with a reliever from the bullpen? Especially if the guys in the 'pen need a bit of rest. Just put a backup infielder on the mound for a couple innings. The game was over.

    Hoops 2019/20

    Kawhi and George shot terribly in that game. At least Kawhi is usually clutch. PG's reputation is a little less reliable... but I expected Kawhi to pull the team through somehow. In the end, I think Harrell was the Clippers' leading scorer. That doesn't bode well And Murray finally went off for the Nuggets, 40 points. Obviously all those missed shots are a big story for the Clippers, but I think the Nuggets out-played them, plain and simple. Jokic killed them on the boards, and the Nuggets were moving the ball (and of course scoring the ball) better for most of the game. If it's a Celtics/Lakers NBA Finals, then that's when I will tap out and mostly stop watching. Both teams have been there so many times throughout Finals history, I want some variety. Right now I'm cheering hard for the Heat and the Nuggets
