    We are a star offensive player away from serious contending.that is tremendous progress!!

    Sure. But what I am seeing from the players is a team that has a reasonable chance to beat anyone. Without Dahlin and 2 other starting D they still drove play and created offense for extended periods of time.

    A bit more puck luck in Carolina and eliminating some errors in the defensive zone in tampa easily could be 3-0 on the road trip

    Clicker is just a 2"x1/2" little rectangular box with a button in the middle that make a distinctive clicking sound when pushed. 

    To expand, it is used in clicker training. It starts with associating the click with getting a small treat. Once the dog understands that, it is used to mark wanted behavior. Coax the dog into a sitting position with a hand signal, once they sit you click to mark the behavior and reward with a treat.

    Come on, you actually like Discovery ? A show where they go into the future to fix a problem, then its fixed because they are in the future, but no one knows how or why ?   Then you got a season long crew cryfest everytime space jesus shows up.

    Its one of the most Cringe television shows out there.   Like I said everything after 2009 does not excist, and I know many trek fans feel the same if not most.

    Its so bad most of the people I play star trek online with refuse to play any discovery content.

     

    to quote kurtzmann 

    Basically make nothing worth a good show, as long as we can send out "our message" .
    Meanwhile lets destroy every story arc written in the last 50 years.   And it wouldn't even bother me as much if there was actually good writing.  
    But after every episode you just know some dumb lazy are behind those keyboards.

    This is Discovery season 3 bad writing  

    1. Basically a Kelpian stepped on Lego, and his scream destroyed all the dilithium. 
    2. All dilithium gets destroyed ? fine then the romulans should win because they use singularity warp cores <-- which the dumb writers not even know or care about.
    3. Destroyed Mirror universe arc
    4. Destroyed romulan/vulcan arc
    5. Destroyed the entire federation arc

    Its not good when the writers say they want to promote a message, use Star trek as a platform for their message, but then also say they never were interested in the history of it all and just make ***** up as they go along.  

     

     

     

    I have played STO for a long time and considering the "discussions" that happen in chat channels in that game I would not use that as confirmation of something being bad. You have made clear that your concern is the "woke" culture. I have nothing further to say to you on the subject of star trek.

    I will give strange new worlds a shot soon, but it being an STD spin off ...

    Strange new worlds is imho the best star trek since TNG. Also lower decks is an unabashed love letter to TNG. Also it is great.

    I get the Criticism of discovery and Picard. Personally I enjoyed both. Discovery got much better once it wasn't beholden to all the lore that was to come in the timeline. However Anson Mount was great in season 2.

    I equate a bunch of the hate for picard to being on the same level as the last jedi hate concerning the portrayal of Skywalker. I personally have no problem with how time has treated Jean luc. I find it pretty logical that Picard would be the way he was after experiencing all we have seen him go thru

     

    Also strange new worlds is more a prequel to the original series. I think of it as more the original series remake with modern TV tech and a modern TV budget.

    I am enjoying Andor more than any other Star Wars product.  The storyline has been great.  The look and feel is constantly changing.

    Last week and Todays episode was a straight up sci fi short story.  No fantasy element at all.  Just wonderfully  conceived sci fi.  What a great change of look and feel. The whole series seems to duck in and out of hard core sci fi.  The first two episodes felt like a Blade Runner spin off.

    Im really impressed so far. A Star Wars product aimed at a more mature audience.  No cute baby aliens.  A smidgen of humor well spaced.  A few nods to traditional Star Wars just to keep the connection.

    Depending how they wrap up the season and the second season (series finale) it has a very good chance of being at the top of my list for star wars media. It is also wonderfully cast and acted. Despite the hate scifi gets come awards season, Andor should win in multiple categories.

  6. The fact that people seem to be ignoring Andor on disney+ is outrageous. It is a great show and easily a top 3 in star wars media. Yet I see very little discussion about it outside nerdy/star wars sites.

    Also anyone that followed The Clone Wars series should check out Tales of the Jedi on Disney+. Dave filoni is a savant when it comes to making star wars media

    There was someone in last year with a member name of Let’s Go B-Lo.  That member name no longer exists here, so not sure who that is.  

    These are the owners that were in last year. If you are in again this year, let me know and go to league page to join.

    Think I am joined up again. Shows my team in the league with an empty roster

    MIAMI -- The unaffiliated neurotrauma consultant involved in clearing Miami Dolphinsquarterback Tua Tagovailoa during the game Sunday against the Buffalo Bills has been fired after it was found he made "several mistakes" in his evaluation, sources told ESPN.

    Is it a mistake if all parties agreed to it?

    Apparently the protocol are administered by both the team's physicians and an "independent" neurologist.  That game last week was Miami's superbowl.  No way was Tua sitting out the 2nd 1/2.  And now, who knows when or even if he's back. 

    YOU can argue it was in Tua's best interest to pass last Sunday's test.  No way this kid will.

    well they just reported he is being discharged and flying home with the team tonight. Sounds like they are saying no concussion without saying no concussion.

  10. 10 minutes ago, Taro T said:

    But that does change the fact that he was concussed when he was gaming the test on Sunday.  Which means HE wasn't thinking properly.  His brain was injured.  There were a lot of sober, coherent people that could've done the right thing & instead did the expedient thing.

    Sure he would have been impaired when taking the test. Doesn't change the fact that a qb that a team has repeatedly tried to replace with someone else "passed" a concussion test. You can argue it was in Tuas best interest to pass that test.

    Not super familiar with nfl protocol. Are the tests administered by independent medical personnel?

    MFer should sue the Fishies coaches & medical staff.

    I am sure the situation has enough blame to spread around to a bunch of people. However I am not sure Tua is without blame as well. I would bet that at least some players have been coached how to pass some concussion testing. So that would let the teams give the ole yep he passed he good testing
