Adrian Peterson makes a switch
Don’t you love a story with a happy ending?
Adrian Peterson is done with the Vikings and I have no idea where he’s gonna go. There were a lot of rumors he was interested in the Giants but he’s asking for way too much money and after the Josh Brown debacle I don’t think the Giants are quite dumb enough to take on a child abuser. The PR would be garbage and they’d deserve every joke thrown their way if they did. That said, even removing Peterson from the child abuse stuff, he’d probably be a mistake for the Giants. He’s on the wrong side of 30, probably wants too much money, and has had injuries pile up, superhuman comeback abilities can only work so much. He probably has a few years left playing mediocre football between injuries for some team as he fades away like most aging great RBs.
It will be weird seeing Peterson in different colors wherever he goes. It’s always weird seeing long time legends wear different uniforms. Maybe he’ll end up a Raven and stay in the color purple.
Have you guys gotten a Nintendo Switch yet? As a massive Zelda nerd I was pretty tempted to pick one up simply so I could play Breath of the Wild, but I decided not to. Buying hardware at launch seems to invite risk. I never buy anything full price anymore anyway. I’ve been avoiding discussion on it because I’ll probably play it sometime later after the Switch’s technical issues get ironed out and more games come out. I like the idea of the Switch, it seems like what the WiiU was supposed to be. Nintendo seems to be accepting they do a better job at handhelds than consoles so they just split the difference between them.
I really thought you were gonna draw AP beating the shit out of his kid
Same. I was a bit uncomfortable until I saw the end of the joke.
Classic bait and switch bro
Wow, epic. Love it.
Bait and SWITCH? You beautiful bastard Dave! You did it again
I’m waiting until Maruo Oddessy
*Mario Oddessy
Pretty stoked about the Switch (and Breath of the Wild especially), but I’m going to wait until the pre-holiday season because, a) buying myself a big toy when it’s not christmas or my birthday feels weird. b) totally novel hardware usually has a few bugs that get ironed out c) price drops and/or game bundles.
Bingo. I am waiting because of c) also. You have to have patience though, which is something not a lot of people possess nowadays.
“OMG dude Breath of the Wild is so amazing!!! Why don’t you have it yet??”
“It came out three hours ago, man.”
I haven’t played it yet for the same reasons you mentioned but my buddy that has has been furious. The first one didn’t work and the one he has now the pieces don’t fit together as well as one wold like. Hopefully by the time the Christmas sales start in August this year they will have all that stuff fixed.
I have a switch and just beat Zelda. I have had no issues with my switch, and the only thing I can hypothesize is that the systems with the blue and red Joy cons are the ones messing up. So get a switch with the gray Joy cons is what I am saying.
I dunno man, Igot a red/blue switch, and other than having to work to get it to connect to the Internet – which is more because I have a cheapo router – I haven’t had any issues.
I think the switch baggage has demoted Purple Jesus to 5th best rb available (Fornette, Beast Mode, Cook, and McCaffrey in that order) this off-season.
I’m waiting for a Brawl in the Family-The Draw Play crossover
I can’t imagine he plays much longer. Kinda like LdT. Played for one team for his career and plays for another team as a last season. Who knows?
I have Breath of the Wild for the Wii U, and it’s pretty awesome. I’d get a Switch, but there really isn’t any interesting unique software out for it at the moment.
I’m a bit surprised you haven’t made one regarding the Seahawks new running back, “Feast Mode”
My wife and I each got our own Switches and Breath of the Wild. So did my sister. I know there are a lot of issues with the systems that commenters on video game sites bawl long and hard about, but you know what? It really doesn’t matter. At its core, the Switch does exactly what it says it does and does it both fast and well. I don’t get a lot of time at home on weekends so the ability to take a full console with me to play and then plug in when I actually am home is magic. Especially if you you go out of town. It feels like I’m not missing anything. That’s a joy I didn’t know I needed in my life until the Switch provided it.
I have a friend that got one for herself and one for her fiance. I thought it was supposed to be a 2 player console? Seems like a lot to drop on a console for one person *ignores handheld console prices*
There is local multiplayer you can do with just one console. But, you are right, it is a bit much to buy multiple systems for. But it makes sense since it IS a portable. If we had just the one, only one of us would be able to play Zelda at a time. And that’s a damn crime! We don’t like to share. 😛
I drained half my wallet on a season pass for Rainbow 6 Siege for PS4. I’ll get the switch when Nintendo comes out with their new Nintendo Switch 4th generation.
Too soon
i want too switch out my brain for nothing so taht i die Very fastly
Desperately want a Switch, but still paying off this Mac, got an unforeseen £200 to shell out after my MinamiCon roomie pulled a no-show WITHOUT TELLING ME FIRST , and my iPad is bollocksed. End of the year at absolute best – even preowned ones are going at £70 over the brand new asking price at one particular ripoff merchant chain.
Managed to land a switch, and even though it’s basically a $300 Zelda Machine right now, I have no complaints. Breath of the Wild is that fantastic. I’d wait a few months until there are more games if you want more bang for buck, but you won’t regret it when you get it.
Look up Yooka-Laylee if you haven’t heard of it. It comes out in a couple weeks and looks like a solid title, made by some former Rare developers.
I’ve been excited about that, but I’m going to give it a few weeks first. There’s maybe five franchises I love enough to have blind faith and buy early.
Part of me is hoping that this year’s madden will make it given how big a push EA is making. I haven’t bought a Madden since 2012, and as cool as RG3 being ’04 Vick 2.0 can be, playing with rosters that are five years out of date gets old.
Don’t worry. Madden 12 was at its core probably the most solid game of Madden in YEARS. By all benchmarks, 13 was hot garbage, and 14/25 was decent. 15 was awful and 16 was only a slight improvement. Madden 17 however, I’ve had great fun with.
To clarify, you still need to futz around with the sliders quite a bit though to get an enjoyable experience.
Yeah. !!!!.. He will win a super. Bowl. With the Giants. So Go go for it Ap

No, but I want a Classic if they ever get back in stock…
You’ll never get a Classic, I think. They were a limited run thing. Nintendo vastly underestimates the amount of nostalgia people have for old games, and while they absolutely can make more, I think they were burned by the massive amounts of Wiis just sitting on the shelves after the initial hubub died down, so it’s new business policy to underdeliver on products so they don’t get shafted again. I saw Wiis marked way down 6 months after release simply because the demand was gone after the excitement of the gimmick died.
This didn’t age well.
