Shoes & Gear / Re: DLX Shapes
« Last post by Mbrimson88 on Today at 02:41:18 AM »
Well. It happened. I was a non-local shop today. They had one of those "revealing" 8.28 Lintells. II stamped, so I am going to "park" on it for a bit. We shall see...
So you can now tell everyone else if it is wider than your usual DLX 8.25 board. Also how much shorter it looks / feels too, but that is expected.

« Last post by CurbyPuckit on Today at 02:07:42 AM »Keelan Dadds a big enough kook to not deserve a redemption even without the pedo business. I'm surprised the Bunt guys who are known for calling out illegal tricks were fans of the guy doing switch double heels and pressure flips all the time.
Cephas clowns the hell out of him for doing double heel flips several times

Put a team with Pol Pot, Idi Amin and Stalin as the ownership group and I'm cheering for them over Boston all day long...haExpand QuoteExpand QuoteI like a lot of things about the Mavs actually, I just despise "Texas sports fans" for the most part. But Cuban is a super solid owner, if you haven't listened to his All The Smoke episode, it's really good and he comes across as one of the best owners of all time. I like Luka's game and Kyrie seems to really have found his gear in that system. Kidd has always been likeable to me as a coach as well, wish the Lakers kept him when he was an assitant in the bubble for us.Expand QuoteExpand QuoteCan't believe I have to root for a team from Texas but here we are. I am 100% on the god damn Mavs train now that they're playing that evil green team.
Ran into Bill Walton a few times at ASR and Agenda over the years, he was always coming to trade shows randomly. He was truly an awesome individual.[close]
The fact that Shammgod is on the Mavs coaching staff is enough for me.
I also love that the 3 Dallas teams not the Cowboys are up right now.[close][close]
@rothdigga did you miss Cuban sold his majority interests to that creepy Vegas GOP donor’s (Sheldon adelstein) daughter[close][close]
Love that the guy who works for the Boston-based company says that.
Not gonna lie, New Balance has one of the best hoop squads of all the shoe companies.[close]
Yeah, Kawhi’s sneakers are fresh 2 def.
I think the Lakers are at an all time low point right now. I hope for ya’lls sake LeBron takes his talents to The Suns. I once rooted for KD over Kobe, but there are no players on the current Celtics that jump out at me. For the Lakers fans, I’d like to see Joker on that team with AD. LeBron is passed his sell by date. And, can anyone say ‘Brony’ w/o throwing up a little bit in their mouth?[close]
If you think Lakers are at an all time low point, you should check out the post-Shaq years or the final Kobe years. We made the WCF last year and did fine enough in the playoffs this year considering league trends[close]
I just think the Lakers are holding onto LeBron to make money from broadcast rights and not to win a championship. Signing LeBron’s son and podcast partner is a joke. If they wanted to win they would allow LeBron to walk and build with the talent they have. Jeanie Bus is allowing LeBron to run the Lakers organization and it’s sad. Kobe would not approve.
Kobe would approve because we overpaid him significantly (which he said was right to do) in his final years when he could barely walk without getting an Achilles injury and it kept the lakers from signing anyone that could help us out - a move that crippled us until Lebron came and got us back to winning ways.
We haven’t signed Bronny yet and from what I hear, it’s not even a promising draft so if we use whatever crappy picks we still have left to get him, so what? It’s not like we’re burning a lottery pick or even a first round on him. We’ve lost those a long time ago and if he goes to the Suns, I doubt that Lebron is going there considering Phoenix’s is loaded with heavy ass contracts that will be hard to move to make way
Re: JJ - I don’t know if it’s a good or bad move. Haven’t run X’s and O’s with him. Gotta assume Lebron and Coach K aren’t approving of him just for shits and giggles

VIDYA GAMES / Re: Skate 4 Hype
« Last post by Cheshire Cat on Today at 01:32:13 AM »I wonder how microtransactioned out it will actually be. Right now the system of doing challenges and leveling up to get boards or whatever currency it is would be fine by me with premium stuff being an optional purchase. I would love if they didnt have to do microtransactions at all but it's 2024
Given the feel that every showing of this game has gotten and what I’ve seen of it - I will be surprised if it isn’t stuffed to the gills with microtransactions.
For a while I sort of expected it to be FtP, which would probably make the monetisations even worse but I’m holding out hope it will be a full release w/ career or story style SP mode.

Yes it absolutely “counts” and I can’t believe some are having that discussion. It’s just like Tony’s Xgames one in terms of the landing / final parts of the rotation.
