It was a big part of playing video games as a kid. My parents didn't get me many games, and I obviously had no money, so borrowing was huge.

Sort of related, is having a little brother who would constantly break your games, erase your save files, and pester you to play your video games. When he was really little he went through a phase where he used to like to bite ps1 discs and break them. Somewhere in a box at my parents' house, there's one of those 90s CD folders full of broken PS1 discs.

That's rough. In 6th grade I lent my friend my copy of Kingdom Hearts and he didn't bring it back until the very last day of school and then I accidentally left it in my bookbag in my locker and never saw it again.

Once I lent my friend my kingdom hearts. Months later we were sitting on his couch and for some reason my hand felt something between the couch cushions. I pulled it out and it was my KH game (just the disc). I took it home and never let him borrow anything again

I like how they change colors and climb and their tongues. Probably one of the coolest lizards. Plus Liz from Magic School Bus is a chameleon right? It was always a great day at school when we got to watch that show

If Dwayne Johnson runs as a Democrat his slogan should be Barack to rock

You'll still be here chewy

My 2 friends who actually like soccer tell me they do. Apparently it's the first time in decades Canada will be in one

Apparently MSP decided to pull out of hosting a game (thank god) because FIFA was apparently unwilling to be transparent about the cost to taxpayers. How uncharacteristic of FIFA

It would be funny if the US didn't make it

well the big news here is that apparently a raccoon climbed a skyscraper and is sitting there seemingly stuck

Because they have no other games?

Please provide clarification. Thanks for making me a cool guy. Nice choice with genji/hanzo. You're brothers, and CaptainHammer likes Japan and is an augmented cyborg as a result of a fight with his brother years ago

So the Twins are apparently not retiring Byung Ho Park's number

Very bold move to put yourself on the side of the prosecution in this bit but I respect it

It makes sense, because in the games the defense always has an ace up their sleeves to roast the prosecution, much like how he got roasted

And boom goes the dynamite

remember when Fleury was good

I'd like to take this time to declare the broncos as my official side-chick team. They have my dude Case "Big Balls" Keenum, and miller and ton of other great players. plus that legal kush, and cool uniforms

51 points for lebron and they still lose. God damn. Up until overtime that game was incredibly entertaining tho

The twins were down 8-0 in the 4th then in the 7th it became 8-8

So in like 2 days

You really shouldn't pitch with a blister. You can't just bleed all over the ball, that's not fair to anyone. Also the pitchers with hand blisters never get over them and it ruins their careers and makes every pitch agony. I'm not saying it's a worse injury but cmon, at least think about what a fucked up hand would actually do to a pitcher.

Good point. And idk why they used Adrian Peterson for that meme for "toe turf." It's called turf toe, and I don't recall AP ever having that injury. It also sounds incredibly painful and virtually impossible for hockey players to get

Alright buddy relax I was just giving you a hard time. You see those hockey fans talking shit all the time about how it's the only real sport played by real men or whatever and again, I was just giving you shit. I literally never watch ESPN.

yeah I know you were just joshing, but that reminded me of this person I'm FB friends with, who probably has the worst account of all time and made me hate myself even more than I already do (as someone who likes hockey). Here are some of the photos she uploaded:

Oh....... You're one of "those" hockey fans...

what does that even mean? I'm mostly just bashing ESPN. I often think of this incredible tweet from my old friend from high school. this was when Lebron was playing for Miami in the NBA finals in April 2013. Over 5 years ago. He took a picture of what was showing on ESPN
https://imgur.com/cD56r9V

5 blurbs about a 3rd string QB getting released on the offseason, 1 blurb about the NBA finals that were currently happening

Edit: ok it wasn't the NBA finals, but it was the NBA playoffs. my point stands

https://streamable.com/r4epy

just dirt nasty boys

that Holtby save tho..holy shit. That might even make #9 or #10 on sportscenter tomorrow, after a bunch of yankees home runs and Curry/Lebron highlights from 2 games ago

Mcree is hard.
I don't think there's an aim assist on pc

Yeah it can be really frustrating at times, but one thing I really liked about it coming from league of legends is that sure you'll get mad every so often but the matches are like 10 minutes. In LoL I would realize I just wasted 45 minutes getting pissed at a video game

Right because that never tells you how good you're doing in a match cuz it's all objective based, obv

Overwatch heads: a player kill streak just means you participated in however many kills in between deaths of your own, not that you actually finished that many guys off yourself right? I need to know how impressed with myself I should be for having a 10 player kill streak with Tracer last night (the answer is extremely impressed)

Yes those kill streaks are eliminations not final blows. If you damage a guy and he dies within a certain amount of time, you get an elimination. For a cod/halo like K:D, look at Final blows: deaths. Final blows give you more charge on your ults though

You think of them before the Golden Gophers? SMH

They never win anything

Isn't there a Golden Bears ncaa team? They will probably win it all too.

I'm still mad that they're the golden knights when Nevada is the SILVER state....SMH

The new Pokemon on switch looks fuckin crazy

I'm glad it's a spin off and they're also doing a normal Pokemon game in 2019

Rumor mills Seattle is getting an NHL team, and with how successful Vegas has been there is high expectations for them

it's going to happen, and when it does, a funny thing is that VGK will be exempt from the seattle expansion draft

has it really been GSW vs lebron for the 4th straight year? I know it's been a lot of that, but jesus...and I thought the parity in the NHL was bad

It's really going to boil down to staying out of the box, sticking to the gameplan, getting pucks deep, keeping it simple, having all 4 lines clicking, and finding those pockets

for both basketball and hockey

I'm sad they changed Mercy. Her ult used to be the resurrection, and it would heal any dead teammate within your line of sight. They changed it because it encouraged "passive play" or something, but my favorite part of mercy was doing a clutch, game changing ult that revives 3/4/5 teammates

I wish hockey games started at their start times

it's as bad as seeing a movie. they start after 20+ minutes of trailers

STLCards1991 posted...

Well Overwatch is awesome. My top 3 so far: D.Va, Tracer and Mercy

weaboo perv

I had a lot of fun with career mode in 'chel, where you create a guy and only play that character

Yeah in that sense, baseball seems like football where the positions are different enough (or there are more positions than basketball and hockey), that you can't put 1 player as the goat, but can do it position by position maybe?

I've also read an article that Ruth was the best of his era, but nowadays any 12 year old in the Dominican republic can hit better than him.

I don't know how to answer the lebron vs Jordan GOAT debate, but it makes me think of gretzky, who is the indisputable GOAT. I'm not sure if other sports that i don't follow as closely have a for sure , but hockey definitely does. The world will end before anyone even gets close to his records.

Gretzky has so many insane records that it's beyond even video game stats. One of my favorites is that gretzky leads all nhl players in points (goals+assists). If you subtract every goal he scored, he's still #1 in points.

Apparently my co-worker knows the girl who poured a drink on tomi lahren. I didn't know it happened in Minneapolis

about to play my first game of overwatch in literally forever. Ultima do you play on pc

aaand 20gb update

Never even heard of that ice cream

I made the same joke as my brother................

You guys do stuff like that all the time

It's too bad you can't do the quick chat statements in-game in MK. I love spamming them in Rocket League, it's hilarious

If that was the case I'd just stay at the starting line and let everyone know that I'm using tilt controls repeatedly

Also reminds me of this comic I saw the other day
https://i.redd.it/ppq9dwazemz01.jpg

My hockey league announced their summer league rosters and for some reason they pick your team name for you... maybe because the season is shorter and you don't always make your own roster. Anyway, they always go with a theme for team names. Last year was dog breeds and there were teams like the yorkies, poodles, schnauzers, etc, so I was hoping for something good.

This year the theme is apparently hockey lingo and our team is the Five Holes, which is very lame.
There is a team called the Suck Holes... I would give anything for that to be our name

I've seen pictures/ videos of her engaging in what appears to be heterosexual behavior. Those must not be canon

Now we can discuss the Tracer is a lesbian controversy in the sports topic

The most important part is finding the best sprays and voicelines. If you're playing mcree and you don't say "I'm your huckleberry" at least 50 times a match, you're doing it wrong

I played all the characters at least a little but these are the ones I was best at

Dps: mcree, soulja boi 76
Tank: zarta, Reinhardt, Winston
Heal: zenyatta, mercy

It's all multiplayer obviously, but it has tons of casual modes. You don't need to jump right in to ranked play (or play it ever)
