NFL 2016 Week 7 [OT] - Challenge of the SuperFrauds

levious

That throwing stick stunt of yours has boomeranged on us.
Didnt they increase Ray Rice's suspension when more info became available? I would think that they could.

They already reopened the investigation supposedly, Im just curious about how quickly they could act.

Also I just realized how important it is for every person with nfl aspirations to have a passport ready these days.

Records Specialist w/ King County Shrf said Josh Brown docs weren't available before Wed. They hadn't been cleared & it was ongoing invest

Giants need to drop this dude 5 minutes ago. Don't wait for the NFL.

So a family with 2+ kids is gonna buy this thing and when they go hit the minivan there is going to be a major war between those kids as to which of them gets the handheld.

I think this is part of the design tho. Split off those two mini controllers and play a multiplayer game on the portable while in the van. No way 3rd parties do this but the core Nintendo franchises should. Whether or not that's enough is a different story

Sheldon Rankins (2016 Saints 1st round pick, DT) practiced for the first time since the preseason. Not sure whether he plays or how much this week but he should be good for the rest of the year. Combined with Fairley playing pro-bowl level DT (3.5 sacks so far in 5 games), the Saints should have a really good d-line for the rest of the year if no more injuries. Unfortunately, this is a contract year for Fairley and he is only getting more expensive. Even if he slows down his pace he is probably at least 8 million to resign and if he continues at this pace he will be 10+ million which is great for a DT. Unfortunately, I am not sure we will keep him long term.

Also, the switch looks exactly like what I want my replacement to the 3DS to be. Bigger screen, much better graphics, and no sacrifices to make it small and ultra-portable.

My problem is even though it does detach and go portable I am still going to have it plugged into my TV in my entertainment center. So in my mind it is a home console and I really want Nintendo to make their consoles at least on par with the other 2.
Fair enough. But would you pay 500+ for a Nintendo console that could do that?

I think that is a market that does not exist.

Hopefully Nintendo can make this cheap as fuck.

You can play at least 2 player game on it if the video is accurate. Something not possible on a tablet. Also plays console quality games. Something not possible on tablets or phones.

It is definitely something different. I don't know if the kids will drop their iPads for this, but it looks compelling. Also the idea of Nintendo supporting a single platform has to be exciting to anyone who likes high quality games.

GAF is not working on my computer. Mobile is fine. It is horrible to post on mobile...

If it matched the features of the other consoles then yes. I am expecting the scorpio to cost $500 and I have never been more excited for a piece of tech. If Nintendo could put out something on par with the HD twins while have good online and matching the other features I would be ecstatic.

That is going to be the interesting thing. To me it's aimed at kids to like college age. In the car walking around back pack etc..Not sure what they are going to try to pull off for price.

Anyone who accepts and eats a sandwich prepared by Gata deserves whatever follows after.

Gata just mark down that I want the special sauce and that you can give mine to Floyd.

So in the Switch hardware thread several people are saying that it will definitely be weaker then the base Xbox 1, not even the S or the scorpio but the lanuch Xbox One. Why Nintendo? I cant wrap my head around that with PS4 Pro and Scorpio coming out. The Switch is going to be so badly out paced graphically, and then what if they get into another situation like with the Wii-U where devs dont even bother with ports for it since it would be more work. I really wonder if we will ever see a situation again where Nintendo's console is on the same power level as the other 2. Oh well my wife already sent me an email saying she wanted one, so I guess I need to start planning out my spending.

Its a supplementary handheld, Nintendo knows that they can't compete with Sony or Microsoft head-on.

the switch interests me, ive always wanted a better handheld from Nintendo and this is what i will use it for. It will have a secondary home upstairs in my bedroom if i feel the need to play on a bigger tv.

and it will be my nintendo game machine like everyother Nintendo console since Gamecube.


Oh and if Rodgers and the offense cant throw for 300+ and multiple scores, we are fucked tonight and every game till he can start doing so again. This season is quickly going south....

$300 max would be great. Any higher than that and it won't get traction. It's not matching the pro or Scorpio so it can't cost the same
 
My fantasy opponent this week has shady. I picked up Gillislee before he could.

It's my proudest fantasy moment.

Hope you guys enjoyed this entertaining story about my fantasy football team.

You gonna be around for some NHL in a little while?
 
Josh Brown will not be traveling with the Giants to London. They just released a statement.

He'll be released next week is my guess post-Sunday's game. I'm shocked they didn't already.

I have no clue who's going to be placekicking for the Giants though I've read that Brad Wing can.

It'll be Zelda X third parties
Port of either Mario kart 8 or splatoon in July and the other port for September that Mario for the big holiday game and other games like Pikmin 4 😎

Mara was on WFAN:

Says it's too early to tell what is going to happen to Brown. Wants all info first
He said that Brown admitted to him about abusing his wife in the past but doesn't know how extent it was
Knew about NFL Security needing to get another hotel for Brown's wife at the Pro Bowl

No business giving the guy the extension they did given that information. Its a black eye on the organization (no pun intended) and they should not hesitate to cut him and move on. Which again - I believe they will next week after this Rams game. They'll give the illusion of support and move on. Mara isn't one to let this kind of shit fester.

On a totally different subject (ad not in line with the excitement for the Switch which looks great in its own right) - the Eurogamer tech piece with Mark Cerny has me super super excited for the PS4 Pro!
