The fans got Deadpool off the ground so many years ago. Yesterday, 10 years after the first film and exactly 2 years after Deadpool & Wolverine, I felt so lucky to be on the #SDCC floor with everyone whose unapologetic devotion brings so much joy to this world.
@anthonyberardix@HeatCultureHQ 1 already had a ring and is coming into an organization that knows how to build teams from scrap and another lost the joy (money) for the game jimmy butler ain’t hit a ring… yea I know ball and heat will be representing the east in the finals in GA first year
People are going to talk about Giannis Antetokounmpo, and they should because he and Nikola Jokić are the two best players in the league, but don’t sleep on how important the Heat getting Bobby Portis is. Bobby’s ability to shoot from the 3-point line and his toughness, he will be a major part of the Heat success!

I want to start this off by stating that this post is in good faith and that I am communicating this without any malice.
As someone who has streamed and used your product as a full-time job for over half a decade, I first want to express how thankful I am for it. Please understand and take a step back before reacting to the criticism and counsel that follows. This comes from a place of good faith and honesty.
When people put in hard work and passion into a product and it doesn’t receive the positive response they hoped for, it can be quite confronting and disappointing. We all respond differently to that. We can go on the offensive, ignore it, or choose to take action.
I am certain this year has brought challenges the community isn’t fully aware of. I also believe the company and employees receive negative feedback every year across a wide spectrum of criticism. I suspect this may create a “boy who cried wolf” syndrome—where complaints are dismissed because “they complain no matter what.”
This year feels different. As I stated at the beginning, this message and counsel come in good faith.
“We” (the community) don’t understand your budget or have privileged information about exact manpower. I’m certain problems exist that, if you could transparently share them (without breaching any NDA), might create more grace from the community.
Below are a few primary actions I believe could help put out some flames and meet somewhere in the middle: 👇🏽
• Hader (a live series card actively in play): Rather than removing his card entirely, consider removing his two-seam fastball until a solution is found.
• King (Mexico series card): You could potentially remove him with a supplemental card or disable his sinker.
• Grant Taylor (relatively new): His cards have a bugged release. Please actively work to resolve this in the code—his past cards have had the same issue.
• Cheaters: As I understand it, external hardware makes detection difficult and manpower for observation is limited. Potential focus areas could include monitoring unnatural jumps in batting average in regular ranked games, hours played in auto-scripted mini-seasons, and users whose averages spike dramatically (e.g., from .260 to .590) only during Weekend Classic.
• Bots: Progress has been made, but they still exist and are evolving—especially with cloud gaming.
• PCI Shrinkage: This has been one of the most disappointing aspects of this year’s game. It was stated that PCI shrinkage would be addressed and fixed, but it wasn’t. If changing the code has proven more difficult than expected, just admit it and take accountability. I know that can sting the ego, but it goes a long way.
• Bugs: We obviously have various bugs—nothing is perfect. Just continue chipping away at them one at a time, prioritizing the most impactful ones first.
• Servers: I’m sure budget plays a big role here, which is understandable. We aren’t privy to what you can spend. But it’s 2026, and bottlenecking and disconnects are at an all-time high. Please push for allocating more capital to this issue (knowing offline modes also generate strong revenue).
• Menus: Simplify them!
I’ve never been able to yell at someone and receive a positive response or the outcome I wanted. This is my respectful attempt.
Truly, I believe if you act on even just a few of these we can see a turn around before the allstar break.
@MikeDro_@MLBTheShow Why not pick two teams each week to supercharge every live series player for fun, in that way there would be so many different players to use each week instead of waiting on a new collection and once a week content.
