I literally had no idea what this topic was about.

I was thinking Kurt Angle, right angles, obtuse angles.

Oh you meant ANGELS? Now I get it.

Guess I'm the only one who likes the card art of both Signature and Awards.

Guess I'm boring.

Milestone is definitely lame though.

Grandal by a mile. Destroys the ball from both sides of the plate.

Yes he's slow. But I rarely even notice.

It's also ridiculous that 10+ catchers have been mentioned in this topic and not Grandal.

I swear people won't give Topps Now guys a chance.

Read through this entire topic hoping there was a clue for the 3rd boss.

Instead saw people arguing about Posey/Molina which I could care less about.

Stay on topic people!

Was bored tonight so thought I would see how I would play after taking some good old "Colorado Gummies" and playing some event games...

It didn't calm me down, but put my reactions to sleep :), I think I lost 5 out of 6 event games(I don't think I have ever done that before tonight) didn't matter if it was a goon or a guy with a losing record contact swinging, I was going down!

Well, now I know.....

Yeah. My pattern is:

1. Play online
2. Consume Edibles
3. Edibles kick in
4. Play offline

@sportpimpin_xbl said in Little Things That Annoy Me About '22 Plus One Small Positive:

I don't like the hip-hop-ification of all these games its bs play some hype rock music or something I don't want me or my kids listening to [censored] rap!

The rap is all clean versions so I'm not sure why you wouldn't want your kids listening to it.

Plus your username has pimpin in it and yet you're worried about your kids listening to clean rap? Ok...

Always one of the most annoying things about the Yankees.

These guys are baseball players. Not doctors, lawyers, businessmen, etc.

Elitist junk.

Yeah the first 27 years of my life as a Red Sox fan were pretty rough.

But the last 17 years have been pretty sweet!

Here are my 2 cents. As a math teacher, this analogy makes sense to me. Hopefully others will understand where I'm coming from.

Student 1 - Gets A's in Math mostly due to their talent/natural ability.

Gamer 1 - Gets the best cards through talent (mostly).
These are your WS and 12-0 Flawless players.

Student 2 - Gets A's in Math mostly due to their strong work ethic. Studies, asks teacher for help, consistent homework completion etc.

Gamer 2 - Gets the best cards through grinding.
These are your 30-40 wins in RS, grinding BR program, or working the market players.

Student 3 - Gets Ds/Fs in Math since they have little natural ability AND no work ethic.

Gamer 3 - Not very good at the game and not willing to put in the grind.

There's no "participation trophy" here. That would be giving all students As in Math and all gamers (even the lazy ones) all the best cards for virtually nothing.

Well if the first two are Matt Kemp and George Brett then the last one better be Pedro or I'll lose interest quickly.

1. Randy
2. Hunter Greene
3. Carrasco
4. Shohei
5. Strasburg

I'm not that mad though.

I would have been kind of furious if they made Halladay better than Sig Pedro from last year.

IRL Pedro was levels above Halladay. Hopefully they at least give a 99 Pedro this year a H/9 he deserves.

It’s just a pun that didn’t land. And what do you call those?

An accident waiting to happun.

Oh.. Rippin packs. Got it.

Also, what are R. I.Ppin Packs?

Scottie Pippen?
Pippi Longstocking?

@the_dragon1912 said in Rare round looks great:

I would assume like the big dog packs they are 30k or whatever with a 1 in 5 shot at the rares

If they're like Big Dog packs there's no chance I see Rare.

I swear I must have earned 20+ Big Dog packs and it's been Base EVERY SINGLE TIME.

@mrad2010_xbl said in Always Intense choice pack incoming:

Al Lester last year was really good. We will see how he is being the base round this time.

Much better than a Mo Lester card

Lol autocorrect did me dirty. I put Lester but it changed it to Lester.

I think it auto-corrected him again right in the middle of explaining said auto-correction.

I have 26 mini season championships. If I played every game I'd have a lot less.

I only go for 15-17 wins. Don't even care if I get home field.

Just start the game, pause, and quit out. Simple as that.

Him and Ketel are the 2 best cards to come out recently, in my opinion.

I've also prepared a few words. Here are some fun facts. The population in Thigh-Land is 63 million people. It is twice the size of Wyoming. It's chief exports are textiles, footwear, and rice. Each year approximately 13,000 people are killed in car accidents in Thigh-Land.

You could also argue Fernandez was in his 20s when engaging in his reckless behavior, while Halladay was 40.

Plus Halladay was [censored] lucky he didn't crash into anyone else. There were lots of boats, swimmers, etc in close proximity to his crash.

The point is, both of them are largely responsible for their own deaths. (and yes. 2 others in Fernandez' case)
