  1. You can make new pipelines and then have to maintain them. Recruiting seems very cool so far. And there's new tweeks to pipelines. Florida is broken up into 3 regions. Georgia can be a pipeline but Atlanta is its own pipeline within.
  2. Presentation and player movement is awesome. The commentary is incredibly stiff. Sometimes Herbstreit sounds like he woke up from a scotch bender and recorded some audio with a bloody mary. The sim logic is completely fucked. So fucked up I really can't believe they released it. Get ready to see Liberty and Tulsa dominate the playoffs in the 3rd season of your dynasty while OSU, Georgia, and Penn State are all sub .500. Player editing for computer generated players is idiotically limited. I get they want to avoid potential litigation, but you can't change numbers or equipment but they allow you to change the names, which defeats the legal caution. You can name a player Barry Sanders but you can't take the neck roll and offensive lineman facemask off your cornerback. And if your 5 star corner is also wearing #49, you can just fuck off and ignore it because EA decided you don't get to change that for no other reason than meaningless restrictions. No formation subs. Wow. 11 years to remove features that were the bare minimum of expectation. Want to move that reciever to the slot for just that one formation? Fuck you. You can't. Because reasons. Or no reason whatsoever. The customization options are basically zero.
  3. Not every school in America gets oil royalties, chief. Because oil is racist against the Rocky Mountains.
  4. Three times in that video posted above sanders dipped into his perpetual victim complex. It's exhausting. Other than Magic, LeBron or MJ, there probably hasn't been a more embraced professional athlete.
  5. What do the inchworm guys think about Terry Joseph and Blake Gideon?
  6. I imagine Sankey knows there's a risk to cheapening your brand long term for bundles up front. There has to be a buffer eventually for college football against just allowing the whole thing to be lined up in front of a corporate firing squad. There's also big business to lose by becoming The Cheez It/Manscape/Saudi Wahhabist Bonesaw Conference.
  7. I came to the recruiting board to check in on the big news and got a face full of a Mike Cernovich twitter post with an Elon chaser. May that poster receive a jagged enema filled with angry hornets.
  8. Ian miles cheong is fascinating in a hideous kind of way. It's hard to tell if he's 15 or 70. And you could park a cybertruck in the space between his eyes.
  9. It's EA. And in spite of all the cool shit that's been displayed thus far, the fact that it's EA means there's still a high chance they'll completely fuck up huge portions of this game. But the CU stuff is strictly marketing to more casual football fans.
  10. Young Jug A$AP Rocky Road Lay Z Butter Rhymes Not At All Slim Shady
  11. I think hours after people here hinted at things in motion and other signs of inevitability.
  12. The John Wilkes Booth sculpture is probably already in Tennessee by now.
  13. Gerry Cooney once received something similar to this, but it wasn't in writing.
  14. Elon grabbed onto the whole "comedy is illegal/ cancel culture" trope from the comedy bro sphere who used it as a hot topic from like 2017 to 2021. I think there were some obvious currents of that, particularly on college campuses, but I don't think it was ever as inflated as some as those guy's sense of self satisfaction from grabbing a sense of victimhood. It was also a marketing angle for some mediocre comics with decent but stationary careers, at the time. Hence comedy specials with nonsensical and dramatic titles like "uncancelable" or "on the edge" or "triggered" and other shit that alluded to "watch out, this guy's a badass and he doesn't care anymore." And pretty much every guy I heard moaning about hordes of delicate thought police coming to silence them were doing it on a podcast that had thousands and sometimes millions of viewers. Sometimes they were complaining about being silenced in front of an arena of people. But almost always they were complaining about being silenced while they said it into a literal microphone. But while all those guys whined about it, shows like 'South Park and 'Always Sunny' were doing the wildest cultural commentary I've ever seen on television. And they were doing it right out of the corporate jaws of ad reliant, cable networks. And I'm sure they fielded some angry letters and comments, but nothing fucking happened to them and they kept doing it -- politics, race, sexuality, mental health. You name it, they were fucking with it. "Comedy is illegal" is nothing more than a broad shield to past and future criticism.
  15. That turned into a complete carnival.
