@MisterCiv I think yesterday was extremely positive for those who’ve said we need massive overhaul and changes for years. I’m excited. I’m just disappointed the one specific change I ask for/want every year still isn’t going into Madden :(
@Poodle_YT Accidentally made that mistake last night, purchased MVP bundle thinking it was the MVP+, had to request refund (got it immediately) and bought the MVP+
So everything I’ve read about College Football 27 and Madden 27 sounds like they made substantial upgrades to core modes like Franchise/Dynasty and Superstar/RTG. My only complaint is we’ve been asking for something like coaching carousel for Madden for a decade and it’s still no
@MikeStrawMedia I feel like it’s a massive overhaul. Still sad about lack of coach carousel type infrastructure in Madden 27, but hoping they can add it in 28. For now it was enough to get me to get the mvp+ bundle
@BobDylan_329@MikeStrawMedia It’s something the community has been asking for for a decade. And honestly something they could somewhat port over from college, export your coach from College Football and have them join the NFL ranks. Work your way up, decide if you want a HC role that cycle or to pass
@MikeStrawMedia Im truly hoping to be blown away. Was not planning on buying either this year, but MVP+ intrigued me and all the hype from people (which I feel like I never see like this) makes me sincerely hope they make me change my decision

I'm sick of hearing Trump supporters say something along the lines of, "How you all feel about Donald Trump is how we felt about Obama!"
That's bullsh*t.
Most of them hated Obama for two main reasons.
1. He's a Democrat
2. Because he's half Black
When Obama was in office, Republicans went after him for the dumbest crap I've ever seen. I saw segments mocking him shopping for Christmas gifts for his daughter. There was one where they belittled him for wearing a helmet while riding a bike. They pushed conspiracies about whether or not he was an American that were completely unfounded. They called him a Muslim, even though he had a well-documented history of Christian church attendance — unlike Trump. Many still believe Michelle Obama is actually a man and called her a communist for trying to encourage Americans to work out more and eat healthier. You know, what Trump supporters today call "MAHA," proving, once again, that they don't really have any real values other than opposing whatever Democrats support.
Then we can't forget the unforgivable — tan suit. No president will ever do something as scandalous as wearing a tan suit.
Yes, it's normal for Republicans to oppose a Democrat. But don't even try to compare why we all oppose Trump to how Republicans were against Obama.
Obama never publicly and personally attacked judges when they ruled against him.
Obama didn't sue his own IRS, of which he is the executive, for $10 billion, only to have his Department of Justice "settle" the lawsuit for $1.8 billion in a slush fund he planned to personally control.
Obama didn't name his personal attorney the acting attorney general.
Obama didn't defend the killing of unarmed American citizens by federal agents, labeling those unarmed Americans as "domestic terrorists."
Obama didn't sue universities that taught material that he disagreed with.
Obama didn't sue media outlets for reporting stories about him he didn't like.
Obama didn't gut funding for medical research.
Obama didn't appoint his top political donor, and the richest man in the world, to a very powerful position within our government.
Obama never tried to put his name on U.S. currency, get a new piece of currency produced depicting his face, put his face on passports, put banners of himself on government buildings, or push for the construction of ballrooms or arches he wants named after himself.
Obama didn't even come up with "Obamacare," that was Republicans trying to slander the former president. The bill's actually the Affordable Care Act. So, even his signature piece of legislation, he didn't name after himself. But Trump did name his online prescription site and child savings accounts after himself.
Obama didn't constantly call for media personalities to be fired for criticizing him.
Obama didn't have his FCC go after networks for not firing those individuals.
Obama didn't order the Department of Justice to go after his enemies.
Obama didn't fire attorneys general for not bowing down and doing everything he told them. He damn sure didn't call files related to child predators a "total hoax," as Trump's called the Epstein files.
Obama wasn't out blatantly manipulating the markets and engaging in insider trading.
Obama didn't accept a $400 million plane from Qatar he then used hundreds of millions of U.S. tax dollars to fix up, which he plans to take with him when he leaves office.
Obama didn't call elections that didn't go his party's way "rigged."
Obama didn't order "blue states" to unethically redraw congressional maps, trying to give Democrats an advantage in midterm elections.
Obama didn't constantly attack our allies while kissing the ass of dictators like Vladimir Putin.
Obama didn't start a war with Iran he promised he wouldn't start.
Obama didn't run up record deficits, he actually reduced them.
Obama didn't try to take over the Kennedy Center and put his name on it.
And this is why education is important: the Republican Party under Donald Trump and the Republican Party under Abraham Lincoln are two very different things.
Pretending that fast food jobs are for “Teens that need weekend work” is about the dumbest narrative ever created.
Who do you think is working while school is in session 9 months out of the year?
It’s a job, just like any other job. Pay the workers a living wage.
@Zirksee That’s the thing, I’m definitely intrigued but I need to see the pricing structure before I’d say I’m gonna get it. If it’s a flat rate, probably not, but if it’s like a $15 a month type thing, I’d probably get it
During his campaign for first term, Donald Trump was asked how he showed $916 million net operating losses in 1995 and setting it off for next 18 years without paying any federal taxes.
Not knowing what to answer, Trump said:
"I absolutely used it, and so did Warren Buffett. Warren Buffett took a massive deduction."
We've to learn from Buffett as to how to deal with facts and data without being emotional or vindictive.
The very next day Buffett shared his income tax returns and said:
"I have paid federal income tax every year since 1944, when I was 13. Though, being a slow starter, I owed only $7 in tax that year. I have copies of all 72 of my returns and none uses a carryforward."
He further noted that while he made $2.85 billion in charitable contributions in 2015, tax laws properly limited his deductions, meaning more than $2.85 billion of his donations were not taken as deductions and never would be.
He asked Trump to share his tax returns in public. Not knowing what to do, Trump said he is under IRS audit and cannot publicly share his returns.
For which Buffett responsded:
"I have been audited by the IRS multiple times and am currently being audited. I have no problem in releasing my tax information while under audit. Neither would Mr. Trump -at least he would have no legal problem."
Buffett then invited Trump to any place, any time before the election so they could both bring their tax returns, sit down, and let the public ask them questions.
Trump never accepted the invitation.
From then on Trump never once even uttered the name Warren Buffett.
Looks like Trump no longer even eat buffets.
Friendly reminder that Matt and I made a 3 hour video listing the top 100 ridiculous things to happen to the Jets since 2015 and we didn’t even remember to put THIS
Time I address the elephant in the room…..There I was, trying to enjoy a Mets game like a normal American. And who shows up sitting behind me? THAT WALL-CRAWLING MENACE! And what is he doing? Save the city? OH NO!!! SITTING IN PREMIUM SEATS PROBABLY PAID FOR BY MY TAX DOLLARS!!!
Permanent DST is the preferred choice by most Americans. The disaster of “standard” time has been widely noted. America needs better, America needs permanent DST
Permanent Standard Time is the preferred choice by most Americans. The disastrous experiment in 1974 of permanent DST contributed to a loss in GDP, deaths attributed to early morning darkness, and disrupted sleep for all.

Colin Kaepernick didn’t play another nfl snap because he wasn’t good, but thought he should be treated as a superstar. He turned down numerous contracts because he wouldn’t be the starter or wouldn’t be paid as the starter
