    Yeah, the people who can't have a FF team and be casual about it can be annoying. When my FF team is winning, it's kinda fun to watch the games and see my players' stats pile up. If not, no big deal.

      Re: Uncommon Opinions

      I'm glad some people have enough free time to follow baseball.

      Just an absurd amount of games to me. I could never give it enough attention to call myself a real fan.


      I'll entertain the beating of this poor, miserable, and dead horse.

      College ****ING Football > NHL/College Basketball > NFL/NBA > La Liga & Premier League


      When I'm back in the States, I do enjoy watching some minor league baseball in the new Regions Park.. Barons are a fun team to watch right now.

        The NBA (and NHL, for that matter) doesn't interest me at all until the playoffs.

        They play 82 games to eliminate less than half of the teams from the playoffs.

          The last time I watched more than 10 minutes of an NBA basketball game was in 2004.

            I don't have time to watch regular season MLB, NBA, or NHL regularly....

            We make time to watch NCAA Football and NFL...

            Playoffs of the 3 long season sports are great and I'll watch, but that's it...

            NFL and NCAA each week is so important....

              Every year I tell myself THIS is the year I get into the Pornicans. And it isn't the lackluster product being shown in New Orleans, it's just the fact that the NBA is so ******* boring. Hell, basketball as a whole is boring. It's odd because while it's so boring, it can produce the best endings in sports, even though more often than not the end of a basketball game takes 10 minutes of actual time to complete one minute of game time.

              The only saving grace college basketball has are the student sections and intimate environments. NBA crowds are so lifeless. I mean, they play music during the play. That never fails to piss me off.

              If the NBA season was shorter and the games meant more, then I may be able to get into it, but they really can't be because then the postseason will take longer than the actual season.

                I'd give the Pelicans another shot, but yeah the NBA season can just be stupid at times. Anthony Davis being a freak of nature is worth a view tho

                  I think the Pelican's will be a huge disappointment if they don't finish as a top 3 team with all the good, young talent they have.

                  Davis, Gordon, Holiday, Anderson, Asik, Evans etc.. I just think all six of those guys could be all-stars. Last year, obviously Holiday and Anderson were injured so that really hurt them.

                    Top 3 in the West? Where the Spurs/Thunder/Clippers/Warriors/Rockets/Blazers live?

                    That's... ambitious.

                      A top 3 team. In the Western Conference. Really?

                      Could probably throw in the Mavs and Grizzlies as well.

                        Please stahp the only way the finish top 3 is if Alien Davis averages 35 points 20 rebounds 8 assists 7 blocks and 4 steals a night and then they still probably wouldn't because the Spurs, Warriors, Clippers, Rockets and Blazers all have better teams.

                          I agree with the not top 3 outrage, but if and I mean IF everything goes right they have a pretty good roster of players on paper

                            You know, if New Orleans were to break off of Louisiana and floated out on the Gulf of Mexico and around, say, Florida and the NBA adjusted divisions accordingly, we wouldn't have this problem.

                              Uncommon Opinion - I don't think Destiny is that good of a game. I think the mission structure is terrible, the loot isn't that great, it's repetitive beyond belief.

                              Popular Opinion - It's gorgeous and has good shooter mechanics

                                Solid 8/10 for me.

                                Fun gameplay, **** story. It's basically a jacked up version of Borderlands, except there's a lot of stuff Borderlands actually does better.
