Two absolute giants in the industry

@redsoxstats “Look down at the field. The best DH in Red Sox history is down there.”

Every year before Fenway opening day I think about Carl Everett's Fenway debut. Just an awesome box score for millenials.

@Glenn_Jones_ Appreciate how transparent and willing to engage with the Snap community you were Glenn! Overall, was very pleased with the game's balance during your tenure, you did a great job! Best of luck

This was my last week at Second Dinner. I loved working on Marvel Snap, and learned so much! Thank you to my peers and our players. Next week, I’ll join Fanatics Collectibles as Sr. Director of Game Design. I’m excited to meet more of the team and start building some games!

@davetron Hi Dave! I know it's probably not in your department, but as a long time League player, I would LOVE to be able to use my Blue Essence in order to get an additional raffle entry on future Riftbound drops.

Keep the questions, suggestions, and feedback coming. We’ll do our best to continue to stay transparent and proactive with updates like these, and thanks as always for your continued support! (11/11)

Hey Riftbounders! TL;DR (more in the thread - 1/11) 1: We're discussing card bans in the near future based on overly-dominant play patterns, but none to announce today, nor an expected date for bans. 2: Expect a separate rules update on 3/30 for the new mechanics being introduced in our next Set, Unleashed, as well as a few clarities around penalties, judge rewind, edge cases, and more. Read on for more!

@Pat_Thorman The two signings I’ve wanted them to make all day have been Gonzales and Boutte extensions

It would have been fun to watch Pierce with Maye and many Pats fans are underwhelmed, but so far New England has smartly shown restraint versus diving into the deep end of the FA pool. It was unlikely to pay off again.

@Pat_Thorman A lot of people on this website love to use the term “Generational” when they really mean “Foundational” This kid is truly “Generational”

@Pat_Thorman All week I have been trying to think of a historical comparison for what Schaefer has been doing at this age and his position. And I don’t think one exists in the history of the modern league.

No disrespect to Hutson but this isn’t a serious question. Schaef is arguably the choice vs anyone.

@AlZeidenfeld Added context to this that I find important: This guy's sister is the puppet that is White House Press Secretary.

The same people who say “stick to sports” would be retweeting the shit out of all of my political posts if they aligned with theirs. It’s never about right or wrong, it’s only about them wanting to silence somebody who doesn’t think just like them

Early front runner for worst Tweet of the year

@Pat_Thorman Not only that, but MVP level QB in Year 2 😱 No questions or ambiguity as to if he’s the guy or not moving forward.

Much is said about the #Patriots luck this year, but they got far more lucky 2 years ago. First time picking inside the top 10 since their 1st Super Bowl 2+ decades earlier, landed an MVP level QB …as the 3rd QB drafted. Third QB has been a real hit only 3 times since that SB.

@ScottBarrettDFB It’s legit insane what they and SF have been able to do. I lump in SF here, because I’m not sure how many teams could survive giving up all that draft capital for Lance and still be where they are.

200 RTs plus comments on this until someone mentioned that they'll also have a top-10 pick this year (from the Falcons) kings stay kings

I love how the Rams went all out to win the Super Bowl in 2021. (Which they did.) And then they had the world's quickest rebuild (3 years vs. the Jets' 25-year rebuild) And now they're Super Bowl favorites again.

@JoshNorris The man understands the assignment

Mike Kafka turned down a 4th and 1 but one series later decided to go for a 4th and 6?

@LSXYZ9 @playriftbound CClyne on the Riftbound sub has been doing custom alters that have a style that I adore. Really hoping these types of designs will pop up in future sets, gives the game so much more life.

Am I crazy for wanting to sunbleach some over-art @playriftbound cards and maybe even sig ones? 🤔🤔🤔🤔

@LSXYZ9 DM'd

So 3rd package now trying to be shipped from EU (riftbound) has been stopped for suspicion again lol. Im actually worried I'm not going to have cards before my NA trip at this point. Anyone from NA have boxes they want to sell & can use fedex? Crazy that KR/JP got 0 eng product..

@LSXYZ9 @playriftbound Back in July, I asked on stream how confident you were in the game, because I was looking at grabbing boxes @ $100 each. Your answer was along the lines of "when people see the Ahri sig is 1/30 boxes, you won't have enough" Happy to say you swayed me to buying 24 boxes 🫡🫡

Absolutely love seeing all the @playriftbound posts on my "For You" timeline. Loving seeing how many people from different circles are enjoying/talking about the game. I plan to host a discord (webcam) tourney probably next month. Might do a mix of invite + open reg?

@zxlpats @MikeReiss Dragonite

Drake Maye, you are a good man. The Patriots and Revolution are hosting a Halloween party at Gillette Stadium for pediatric cancer patients … and the MVP candidate came dressed in costume.

@HaydenWinks 5-2 after getting him at the 1.10 Despite losing Tyreek and Burrow as well

Christian McCaffrey is getting to close to being worth his pick, even if he picks up a random injury down the road. Just curious, what is your record including this week if you have CMC? Guessing a bunch of 5-2 teams.

@RotoDoc @MsKelseeeey @RotoDog_ So sorry to hear this Nick. She was so lucky to have you.

@DynoDangle No lie, I thought about this the other day. Just an absolutely INSANE tweet

@RotoDoc This happens to me all the time too!!! Same exact nightmare, a class in high school didn’t count and I have to go back. The other shared nightmare I’ve heard about is teeth falling out, that’s never happened to me before thankfully.

I'd say once a month I have a recurring dream (nightmare?) that I never attended some random English class in grad school (which was a class I never actually needed IRL in grad school for mathematics, lol) so I didn't get my degree in said dream😂

Totally random... ...I had a dream last night of people asking what specifically my Ph.D. was about The Gray-Thornton model (I studied Hyperbolic PDEs)
