I doom scroll and give my opinion of sports. I watch 10 college football games at a time. I’m not an addict

[TheBugle @noaveragefan]

You should never hit a full sand wedge or log wedge. The ball spins too fast up the face and you’ll chunk or sky it 9/10 times

[Tour Swings Tommy @TourSwingsTommy]

Three-quarter wedge shots have changed my game forever.

Don’t think I’ll ever be able to go back to full swings with my 60° and 56°.

So much more consistency in carry distance and spin.

Definitely recommend trying for those who have not.

Most coaches don’t do it for the money

[Brett Dudley @CoachBDud]

Coaching small college football is financially irresponsible. I see job postings to coach making under 50k. Just to say you coach college football? For every 1 who climbs the ladder hundreds, maybe thousands don’t. Go teach and coach at a HS, make more money and be happier.

[TheBugle @noaveragefan]

Fun fact for anyone looking for a good honest job with great retirement benefits

Firefighters basically hang out workout and watch sports/tv until a call comes in. Hell if your on nights you can nap

[Barstool Sports @barstoolsports]

Putting out fires and putting up plates

[TheBugle @noaveragefan]

Convinced it’s because in the back of my mind I think I’m gonna hit something on my follow through

[Big Swing Tempo @BigSwingTempo]

Does anyone else have a hard time hitting driver in a golf sim?

For whatever reason, I can never hit driver well indoors. Every other club is fine, can’t really tell a difference.

Is there a reason for that or am I just a mental midget?

[TheBugle @noaveragefan]

Euros are arguing about dart “athletes” now

[Stan's Account @tristandross]

there are 128 athletes in the darts world championships. they can hit a 180 with thousands of the most pissed people in human history screaming at them. if you gave them a little egg ball and told them to practice chucking it quite far, they'd all be no 1 pick in the nfl draft

[TheBugle @noaveragefan]

Usain Bolt was fast. He did not have skills in ball sports. He could run fast and that’s it

[Mike @da5705]

Usain Bolt is 6'5'' tall, built like a brick shithouse, the fastest human to ever live and has an argument to be the greatest athlete in the history of mankind.

He's tried playing football professionally, in a relatively mediocre league, and was shit.

[TheBugle @noaveragefan]

People post this and then get offended when you tell them to move to any other country they think is better than America

[MC Squared @mcsquared34]

This monstrosity was also built on stolen land

Or to take more money from him when the kids rack up $200 from in game purchases

[DUBBY @DubDotDUBBY]

It's almost as if they put the pay option in the game to help people like you

[TheBugle @noaveragefan]

No they make it addicting with lights and sounds when you unlock (buy) something.

[RedditCFB @RedditCFB]

Official statement from EA Sports on the microtransactions they’ve added to NCAA 27: “The intent is to provide players with a sense of pride and accomplishment for unlocking different abilities.” #CFBPlayDontPay

[TheBugle @noaveragefan]

It’s about principle. Be more than a dollar sign

[Terrence Parsons Jr @Tpars_boii]

If the normal setting is just like 26 which I think it is then they are bitching for no reason lmfao I played 5 seasons and I’m level 35 lmfao yall gotta stop the BS I’ve never had to be past level 75 before it got boring i don’t understand the out cry other than yall want shortcuts 🤣 well pay for it then

[TheBugle @noaveragefan]

I say it all the time if they took this exact game updated graphics teams and rosters I would’ve been all over it

[🦆 B1G Duck Energy 🦆 @B1GDuckEnergyy]

13 years later and NCAA 14 is still the gold standard for college sports games.

We do.

100% call them. The pro shop workers are people

[Stephen Hennessey @S_HennesseyGD]

Golf dilemma:

You played as an unaccompanied guest at a private club and left a headcover there.

Do you call the course the next day and track it down, or not be a nuisance and just let it be lost? (It’s a puttercover from my favorite course, Sleepy Hollow)

[TheBugle @noaveragefan]

EA put a price tag on a feature that was free in a single player mode. This is nothing more than greed and some people still have principles

[Earl @EarlsWorld_]

So after being educated on the micro transactions being added to dynasty and road to glory this is what I learned:

1. Dynasty players want a pure sim experience.

2. If the experience is "too sim" like not being able to max out a coach in three seasons with a 300 percent xp boost slider (that shouldn't exist in the first place) without transactions, then it becomes a problem because it's a grind.

Bordeaux made content from a game 10 years old and still amassed half a million followers and even more views.

Pretty sure he has the leverage here

[Bordeaux @bordeauxyoutube]

If I wasn’t clear enough yesterday, I will never work with @EASPORTSCollege again if they don’t reverse these decisions.

EA’s playbook will be to wait out the backlash. That’s why this conversation can’t stop. And trust me… we’re not the only ones who feel this way. #CFBPlayDontPay

[TheBugle @noaveragefan]

It’s an offline single player mode. It should not have micro transactions. This is greed and should not be defended

[Shaka molden @Asian_boywonder]

YOU DONT HAVE TO SPEND MONEY WHAT DO YOU NOT UNDERSTAND ABOUT THAT

[TheBugle @noaveragefan]

It really sucks that after waiting a decade it took 2 years for greed to ruin it.

Capitalism gives the power to the consumer. Don’t buy it. I know your friends on it. I know it’s new. Just keep playing 26 until EA gets the message

[Benny Yinzer | Hail Mary Media @bennyyinzer]

You would have to win the national championship every single year for the next 150 years to max out your coach in College Football 27 for free. Or you can just pay EA ninety nine dollars and ninety nine cents.

I own this game and I'm not touching it until this gets fixed. It's Dynasty mode, single player, I'm not playing against anyone, and last year there was a setting for exactly this, Fast, Fastest, and now it's gone, deleted, replaced with a price tag on the same thing.

Road to Glory got it worse. Taking a created player from a 50 overall to an 80 overall runs about fifty bucks, against a coordinator who isn't even real.

A creator named @bordeauxyoutube, somebody who's defended this franchise for years, messaged an EA developer and asked if the fast settings got pulled on purpose. Got ghosted, not a yes, not a no, just nothing.

@NotTheExpertYT, another guy who's been fair to this franchise for years, called it heinous, and when your own defenders start reaching for that word, EA should be worried.

Who sits in a meeting and signs off on charging a grown man a hundred dollars to beat a computer faster?

I can't get there.

Ultimate Team, fine, that's always been pay to win, you know the deal. This one's different, call it what it is, a cover charge, a vig, and a valet fee, for a video game you play alone.

It's DISGUSTING, and the wildest part is they were betting nobody would actually sit down and do the math on a hundred and fifty years.

It’s one thing to be greedy and make an incomplete buggy game.

It’s another demon to make an incomplete buggy game and expect people to buy micro transactions.

Sad part is there’s enough gooners out there to stay profitable

[Bordeaux @bordeauxyoutube]

If I wasn’t clear enough yesterday, I will never work with @EASPORTSCollege again if they don’t reverse these decisions.

Once again just because you can does not mean you should.

If someone shows up with this in their bag I immediately don’t respect them

People still don’t know how to meal prep or wake up before 7am huh?

[fanta @buaalicious]

Genuinely want to know how people who don’t work remotely incorporate gym in their daily routine. You have to put aside a minimum of 1.5 - 2 hours for a proper gym session (commute included), how does that even work with a 9 to 5 where you have to cook dinner every night too.
