    The Bulls new coach thinks he is coaching a bunch of high schoolers.

    "You guys don't listen to me? Two and a half hour practice with wind sprints at the end. I don't care if we had a game yesterday and one tomorrow"

    Oh right, I post about basketball and everyone goes silent. Typical.

    I made an avatar of a kid that I played with in youth and HS soccer for my FIFA. His nickname was roadblock because his tackles usually fouled and hurt someone. In the game, I set his aggression super high but his tackling skill is super low. He also plays all attacking from right back. My goal is to score a hat trick and get a red card every match. The ****ing USMNT won’t call me up for international duty, though. [emoji35]

    Red Dead Redemption 2 is pretty solid. I just like exploring the map and hunting animals with my bow even though I can’t stand hunting in real life. [emoji23]

    If I had more time (2 year old) and could convince my wife to upgrade the system (as if) I would probably love Red Dead Redemption 2. I love the Assasin’s Creed games, just wandering and messing around.

    I knew I was probably as old as most of your parents, but with all this gaming talk it appears I might be as old as some of your grandparents. Never played any of the games mentioned above.

    For me the great grand daddy of all these team/map battles is the Half Life engine by valve.

    In essence not much has changed between CS, Team Fortress, Quake etc

    You could play the same general idea as far back as Doom LAN parties in 1995, though Quake was probably the first proper version of it which i think i first saw in the late 90s. A mate worked at a web design firm and they had LAN parties

    Yeah - but I don't really play online. Frankly, I'm not good enough. I stick to my career mode, where things are going swimmingly.

    Anyone hear Steve Nash's commentator yesterday. Dude was simply a fan rooting for his team. It was amusing, yet completely unprofessional. Had it been against any team other than Barfa, I probably woulda been pissed.

    Yes. I had to turn it off after Dembele toasted the spuds defense. Aside from the fact that he’s a spuds fan, he is just awful at commentating. I can’t watch the halftime or highlight shows on turner because of him and what’s the guys name—Stuart or whatever. Nash knows dick about footy and can hardly string together a coherent thought. His partner is just strarstruck and feeds Nash tidbits to chew on.

    Honestly, I used to hate fox with warren and co, but Jesus these guys are terrible.

    IIRC Nash's brother was on the Canadian men's team, but that's hardly a strong enough link to have him commentating on Champions League games.

    Isn't it funny how some supporters are grade-A hypocrites?

    "I'll say indignant things about the non-white player on the other team but I'll cheer when the non-white player on my team does something important."

    It's not even race, it's financial as well: Remember when Liverpool fans were angry about Sterling going to Man City even though Liverpool never offered the wages City were offering? Yet give them the same scenario they'll bite your damn hand off to sign a contract for Citeh.

    And this is why the Bulls have been straight garbage ever since they told Jordan to f*** off.

    You think after the debacle of the Sun regarding Hillsborough, the English tabloids would be a little more careful in their reporting of anything regarding football.

    Obviously not.

    CS was literally crack! People were getting jumped and some even died over a computer game, in my neck of the woods.

    When I was backpacking in Thailand in 2000 the main business of internet cafes was gigantic CS LAN parties

    Was amazing to watch the kids play

    First step off my school bus was towards the nearest PC room. 2$ - first 30 mins, $1 the next 30. Sodas and chips .50c, a kids dream.

    Yeah I'm not too impressed by his commentaries. Even if he's got some game, and has some sort of budding bromance w/ Stu Holden. The whole B/R coverage is the lowest level of UCL coverage I've seen over the years.
