Wouldn’t be surprised if daddy and Silver have been heavily involved in this. Silver especially just wants this to go away during the finals.

Forget about Lebron, signing a big name FA is now the least of our worries. If I were Embiid I’d be one foot out the door come FA time!

Yeah I wonder how things play out with Embiid

It goes even beyond the grasp of the current players. Toxic things have a wide negative influence, look at MJL for instance.

This trickles to other FA inquiries, potential staff hires, it's deep.

If they want to save any face they should part with him and his collars asap.

Tickets will go back to 2 bucks a game probably.

I'm hoping they leaked this with the understanding Colangelo will walk away from the team on his own to help the guy save face but I'm not holding out much hope. You can't have any faith in this ownership group if they let him stay however.

Hello, 25 yo spawn here, still living rent free with the parental units, eating home cooked meals and playing/watching people on twitch play video games. Set to make 50s/hr in the coming weeks, saving lives, with 196k and counting to pay off.

What losers I say!

I always learn something in the back read. GIG is Marc D's son. That's pretty cool.

Love it. I play it at night when kids are in bed. Love doing something that I don't need to actually use my brain for.

I've got it. First time I bought a baseball game since the PS3 era. It's fun and the graphics are fantastic but as with most sports game I ended up getting tired of it fairly quickly and regret paying full price for it.

The create a player mode also makes you pick what style player you're creating and puts hard caps on your stats(isfif you're a power hitter you can max out your power stats at 100 but your contact and speed will max out at like 85, which is kind of lame imo.)

Isn't he signed for a long time?

I hate the ownership based on them also owning the Devils

I used to love it for PS3. Recently got a PS4 and I blazed through God of War (amazing) and I’m trying to find another game to check for PS4. I have horizon zero dawn but I’m struggling to really stick with it and idk why. I was really looking forward to playing this game. But my main worry for The Show is what you described; regretting paying full price.

So I am a fan at looking at Spezza, if bought out, as a possible 3rd line center if you don't have one in house for next year. I think you could get him cheap and maybe on a 1 or 2 year deal.

Another name I am curious if anyone on here would be interested in if the same situation arises, Brandon Dubinsky. He is a pain in the ass to play against and he can kill penalties. I wonder if he would be a good short term and cheap for the 3rd line center role.

Who appointed him? I’m not criticizing the pick, would like to know what the process was. Who can I PM for right to know purposes?

Last of us is on my list as well as Bloodbourne (heard this is hard as hell but I like challenges). I hear Detroit is cool but I haven’t done my research to know about it enough. I feel God of War has ruined gaming bc nothing will be as good lol

That’s NHL for me basically as of now. But good to hear; thanks. I miss having the create player mode and grinding through the AA , AAA and finally making it to the big show

I think Stastny is going to resign in Winnipeg. Kind of why I think trouba gets moved.

I would be ok with Riley Nash. I think Bozak might get more then what people think he should.

Ugh I hate Dubinsky, but that probably means I'd like him as our 3C
