I’m 28 and still hop on occasionally, and honestly I still have fun with it. Even with all the criticism modern COD gets, there’s just something about it that still feels familiar and nostalgic to me.

COD used to be the game for my friend group growing up. We’d all be online constantly. Now I’m basically the only one left who still plays it regularly. My friends still game, just not COD.

It’s kind of a weird melancholy feeling because the game still feels like home in a way. I’m the last one carrying the flag for our squad.

Anybody else relate? My melancholy loves company lol

Been getting into this show a lot more recently. And between the sting, and all of the catfishing that happens, no other person cries as much as Lorne.

Is it a defense mechanism? Is it a way to garner sympathy? Surely it’s not genuine remorse. Even with the catfish, so many times during the calls he cries when things don’t go his way. This seems extremely odd, even amongst the people who were on the show. Why do you think this is?

The A’s walked away from what should have been the perfect marriage for this legacy franchise to be a 21st century powerhouse.

The fanbase was there. The history is there. The swagger of both being united in a state of the art Oakland ballpark would’ve been the envy of the league.

I used to believe that with a new ballpark with the best fans in the world, the A’s could’ve been the best franchise in the league. Because at times, they were

We see how often the team can rebuild with new talent. We’ve seen players say how crazy of an environment Oakland was to play in.

A front office that spent on players, with the fanbase behind them, with a new ballpark would’ve engineered a new golden age for the franchise.

The Giants are the prettier franchise because of the ballpark & recent success. Haven’t done much since. They have legitimate fans, but not as many diehards as Oakland. The Giants enjoyed being the cheese & wine team in the bay.

I truly believe if the above happened, the A’s would (once again) dwarf them in fans and popularity. I truly believe we could’ve had another era with constant playoff runs, with thunderous backing of the fanbase, in a home that the entire region could be proud of.

I hate what’s happened. Fisher had a chance to be a generational hero, and threw it away for a quick fix.

It’s much harder to build a fanbase from scratch than one that’s had 60 years to grow. A waterfront ballpark in the Bay Area would’ve made him more money than anything in Vegas.

Shame

I need depth but am worried about giving up a top 10 asset

Veteran player. Would prefer a more casual/free league but am willing to pay up to $20. Would prefer Sleeper

Leagues work best when you know the people in them. Thats why we are looking for multiple managers to join our startup dynasty league. It’s me and 3 of my friends that have been doing it forever, so the league should last.

Sleeper

Half PPR

Rookie drafts

No kickers and DST. ( I’m open to kickers if the league is)

2 flex spots, maybe 1 will be superflex

No fees. Will vote on a small fee or not after year 1.

3 taxi spots

FAAB waivers

20ish roster spots

Flexible. We track stats and have rivalries. DM if interested!
