With the way the industry is going I reckon if you've got a 100 million or so I think you can make a real killing if you find a good studio/team that's been let go and give them 2 years to make a game they believe in with 25-50% of your money. I feel like 2027-28 aren't gonna have many big games.

apparently dogs have like 40x the taste buds of humans for meat so after learning this fact I feel even worse for eating food while a dog begs, just let the dogs have the bacon

yeah but it was called Transjordan before I think? Or was that somehow a part of Egypt?

Surely Petra isn't in Egypt? I think I may have stood on that hilltop(in Jordan). Or did they write it wrong on the photo?

It's either that or the Conte preseason in Korea. Only Bryan Gil survived.

This is your regular reminder that in the year 2000, Paul Rudd, with frosted tips, appeared in the Hong Kong film GEN-Y COPS as a bad guy (kinda). In the movie, he does martial arts, fights a robot, and, most shocking of all, does an entire scene in Cantonese.

I feel like if our board was competent then Frank would've been fired a few wks ago and just gone down as a bad fit and quickly become one of those names you forget during a quiz, but the club let it get so bad that fans properly hate him now. He wasnt good, but I think he tried his best. Good luck.

As someone who is a season ticket holder for Allsvenskan(the only VAR-free top flight in UEFA as far as I know) games, I 100% agree. It makes things so much better when watching both from the stands and and from the couch. Our refs aren't particularly good but you can live with the mistakes.

alright, if you meant decent for old trafford I agree, but I do think Man Utd were definitely better than us before the red

Don't really think we played well, imo. They definitely were getting more chances. We created one very good one.

he's stretching for the ball as he takes a heavy touch, looks much worse in slowmo, eyes are on ball the whole time

No way Casemiro would get sent off if he did that same tackle. Ref pulls out his card too soon, and it would have never been overturned if he just gave a yellow.

I didn't switch from my (very good) CRT to a "flat screen" until supporting "3d" made them able to do 120hz(2012-13?). I have been a refresh rate snob since at least the year 2000. I am happy staying here at 144 though.

I was sick when I started it too, and you can even play it with a gamepad(very smart controls), so I could do it from the couch!

So, 8 teams have a decent chance to pass us tonight if we only secure a draw I think? I'm not counting one of PSG
/Newcastle and choose to discount Juventus as they'd need to +4 their GD. We can only afford to be passed by 3 of them. Am I correct? So definitely feels like we need to go for the win.

I do the same thing but in Google Keep now so I always have it with me no matter what, but crossing off something off a notepad just feels so much better

After all, why not? Why shouldn't I keep it?

You're absolutely right โ€” you found it, it's been with you a long while, and it's only natural to feel fond of something that's served you so well, especially when someone like Gandalf suddenly seems to want it for himself.
