I felt the same way about Missile Command.

 

[headhunter15]

Haha.

 

[butchna]

Yep crazy isn't it.

Cal Ripken Jr. And Derek Jeter should've been also.

Tom Seaver had been closest. There was one voter who emphatically stated no player should be a unanimous induction…and voted accordingly.

Covid lockdown was our last chance. I played through Red Dead 2 and it was incredible. I have hardly touched a game since and they released new consoles in the meantime. Hard to justify buying the new console for NCAA 25 as well.

The Bermuda Triangle has relocated to Tennessee too.

Low tax rates attracting all kinds of riff raff.

I dont think Cali kids get rattled by much. CBD flows in their veins as children.

Casey Clausen, the Iceman, is one of my favorite Vol QBs of all time. As "cool as the other side of the pillow" regardless of situation.

Oh, yeah! I played a lot during the lockdown. My son was born in 2021, and it hasn’t been the same since. I get to play Madden a couple of times a week for maybe an hour, just enough for one game.

Yep. Now they're in the garage doing karate.

You wouldn't happen to be named Joe and work in a button factory?

Luckily I need not to worry about Hurricane season. Although for those who do may you be safe for the next 6 months.

Weird football score, but I suppose Andy sucks that bad.

Vandy vs Clemson would be a meteor strike final imo. Least worst outcome.

May 31, 1916
The battle of Jutland was the only major clash between the British Grand Fleet and the German High Seas Fleet during World War 1.

It occurred in the southern North Sea, off the coast of the Jutland Peninsula which gives its name to the battle.

While the British lost more ships than the Germans, it was the pivotal naval battle of the First World War.

Whilst the High Seas Fleet emerged twice more into the North Sea, there was no other major battle and the Royal Navy retained command of the sea, without which Germany could not win the war.

Both sides claimed victory. The British lost more ships and twice as many sailors but succeeded in containing the German fleet. The British press criticised the Grand Fleet's failure to force a decisive outcome, while Scheer's plan of destroying a substantial portion of the British fleet failed. The British long-term strategy of denying Germany access to the United Kingdom and Atlantic succeeded.

Wasn't that technically the first naval battle where they were shooting at targets over the horizon, aka targets they couldn't actually see?
