Still beats FIFA by a gazillion miles.
You ever get a ps5?
Not yet, couldn't get my hands on one. Now I'm just waiting until I get to the US, not worth it to get one here for 1 or 2 months.
You’re coming by the end of this year?
I'm waiting on two things, first is my vaccine which I'll be getting within the next month and second is that Joe Biden needs to lift the travel ban on Europe. I hope that will be very soon. As soon he does and I'm fully vaccinated, I'm coming over.
But why? Why would you WANT to come to America.
My lady is waiting for me, haven't seen her since 2019 just before the pandemic hit us.
I feel yas. My woman went to visit parents just before lockdown. Got stuck there ( Malaysia). They have that county on super lock down.
Haven't seen my brother, sister-in-law and nephew in 2.5 years. He lives in Singapore and they are on another lock down. He worries that if he leaves the country, he will not be welcomed back in -- regardless of work visa.
The big issue with foreign travel is expat teachers. There are a lot of American teachers over seas, and they want to come home for vacations but worry they wont be allowed back in to their country of work. Additionally expat schools are worried that if teachers do leave and cannot get admitted back that there will be a teacher shortage.
This sh!t is nuts.
Rough situation as well. Hopefully all will be over soon and we can return our lives to normal.

Moving to Texas right? Whereabouts?
Yes sir, San Antonio.
That's a nice town. Only about 3 hours away from Houston. Hopefully you get to come sooner than later.

Yeah Singapore and Malaysia basically follow sane procedures. They super strict. I can't even get in there. She can't get out. Crappy situation all around. Luckily we alive though.

My brother and I were talking about this on Sunday morning:
FIFA: turn in 11 85+ rated cards to receive this 1 88 ovr LB.
Me: But I keep those 11 cards right...like I do not lose them.
FIFA: No, you loose them.
Me: But why?
FIFA: Thats futball bay-bay!MLB TS: Collect those 40 cards and earn this really awesome card
Me: But I really don't want to lose my Diamond Series players in that collection.
MLB TS: You don't lose them, but you can't sell them
Me: ...
MLB TS: Like you keep them...
Me: ...
MLB TS; Oh, you're a FUT player, my bad, this must be a jarring experience for you. Here just hit a few XBH, we'll give you this 89 diamond level 1B.I actually skipped last inning to play fifa because the content was so good. Probably 30 Team of the season cards and 3 icons in like 2 weeks. No reason to lie, Fifa content has never been so good.
-
Maybe its just because Crochet is new but he basically looks like Chris Sale but he can throw 102!

Thank you Andrew Wilson for your touching comment...
In two days of playing The Show I unlocked 5 diamond level cards; and when I collected them, I can kept them...and still earned a reward. I also earned over 25K in stubs just for simply playing moments, conquest, and games v the CPU. I am not gloating...dudes are pulling-off far better days than I am -- there is a drastic difference between DD and FUT/MUT/MyTeam (I'm aware that's 2k) and I am not the only one to notice it.
"FIFA content has never been so good." = "Excuse me, sir, did the chef add a little salt and pepper to this dogsh!t? It's taste a little better today."

Cool. I unlocked over 50 Diamond cards and over 300,000 stubs from packs through TA this weekend, completed the NL, added Soriano and Finley, Could now also buy Trout but will wait till I have 1,000,000 plus. That just has nothing to do with EA having better content than ever before.
It more has to do with the fact I know what I’m doing, just like I do in Fifa or any other sports UT so earning free icons, playing fut champs and earning another 500,000 coins and 6 Team of the season cards from every league every week is easy. Much better content than before, and that isn’t even touching Icon swaps which is the best part of it all.

Crochet isn't that good if you can read pitches.. If you struggle against the fb then he will suck. I wouldn't recomend using him more than 5 innings if your opponent has good ba's with his cards. He will eventually time him up.
-
Lee, Oswalt, Glavine, Pedro, Burnes will be the rotation after headliner drops today. Looking forward to it.
Not really interested in Leiter because he lacks a changeup.
-
The good thing is if everyone uses them you'll get use to their pitches and be able to hit them well. I love when someone uses Corbin now

Andrew, you missed the point. You are arguing content, I am arguing mechanics.
With that said, "much better content than before..." does not mean better content than what SDS is doing with DD now. Going back to my sarcastic comment, adding salt and pepper to sh!t still makes it sh!t.
We have differing POV (content v mechanics has already highlighted that). I played FIFA for a few months and turned-it-off because of how disheartened I felt about what was available in the game -- I'm not unique in that sentiment.
Finally, I did not lie. My humorous dialogue that started this conversation depicts the mechanics of FUT v DD pretty well. How many rewards in FIFA are linked to losing a stack of cards to gain one? How many rewards system in DD are linked to losing a stack of cards to gain one?
DD has exchanges which a lot of players suggest not to do. Everything else can be collected and kept, unless you choose to bronze/silver swap.
I am not playing FIFA anymore, and I will never go back to FUT. Can you say the same for MLB TS and DD? My guess is your answer is "No." Could that be because you are SO GOOD at sports games and I am confidentially above-average? Sure. Odds are it comes down to experiences, I am confident that a majority of people will lean my way.
Why? because the mechanics of DD are better than those found in FUT, MUT and MyTeam.
