    It’s fine for the Road to The Show, and March-October modes I think, but the story modes and Dynasty both auto-set the difficulty. The one on Jeter’s where you have to make base 4 times drove me up the wall.

    In Dynasty, I get the option of playing easy when having a solo game in conquest and against the cpu, I’ve noticed there aren’t any rookie challenges this year though! I’ve found on veteran that drawing a walk is far more frequent than last year, and I’ve been hit by a pitch loads! 
     

    That Jeter challenge sounds like a right bastard though!

    I play on the easy difficulties and that's how I enjoy the game, but unfortunately the main modes all lock you out of doing that

    I play on easy and haven’t had this issue. I did have an issue with different settings for different modes but in the menu you can set your preferences as default. It’s a bit hidden away though!

    The challenges have always been of varying difficulty but I ain’t touching those Xtreme things or whatever they’re called!

  3. Started watching the vid neil posted and think I’ll try the big three, but I was worried about the schnauzer, had he eaten something hot as he was just licking air the whole time. Or maybe he knew he was going to be an accompaniment to the rice and sauces.

    I love it! I look forward to seeing it a further 6,000 times until all remnants of humour have long since been thrashed out of it.

    I’ll do it in 10.

    Bad week for the conspiracy nuts as it turns out the Princess of Wales has cancer and has been receiving chemotherapy.  

    Au contraire, isn’t it a coinkydink that two senior royals have both recently developed cancer? And they’ve both had Covid vaccinations? Makes U Think

    (I’ve actually seen this being said and not for comedic purposes)

    Noticed Owen Jones has withdrawn his Labour Party membership. The reasons he gave (basically carrying on with the same Tory policies) were valid in fairness.

    And a lot of the people who were telling him (and everyone with similar views) to fuck off out of the party if he didn’t like where they were gong are not happy that he has now fucked off.

    Happy MLB The Show 24 Day to all who celebrate. 

    Really loving this, the pitching against CPU teams has improved hugely, they throw a lot more out and around the edges of the strike zone so you really have some great battles at the plate. Being me, I was absolutely delighted in drawing 4 (four) walks in a single game!

    Biggest drawback is the music plays during a game in the background and I haven’t sussed out how to turn the fucker off yet!

    Started Mr Mercedes last night. Really good first episode. Nice to see Brendan Gleeson playing a disgruntled miserable bastard for a change

    Really good first season, was expecting worse because it’s a Stephen King thing. An excellent cat and mouse type thriller. However, it’s gone all Stephen King in the second series because. 
     

    Spoiler

    Season one ended with the protagonist being head stoved into a vegetative state. Along comes a genius maverick neurosurgeon type who gives him some experimental drugs. Now, despite being in a coma, he can seemingly hypnotise people and enter their minds via a shit iPad  

    Jesus fucking Christ, as Gleeson would say.

    I'm glad to see a guy called "Amissah" is not a striker.

    Sounds like Mark E Smith being asked for his daughter’s pronouns.

    Could be worse. His first name could be Justin or Alex.

    Like Alex Hiscock at our school, who was only referred to for the duration of school as Al-licks His-cock. Great days.

    Someone I knew went to school with a Rich De Barr, which became Shit Stabbar. As you say, great days. 

  11. The new series of Hunted started on Sunday, obviously ACAB so you want everyone to win but there is a pair of posh boys who you hope fall down the stairs a few times before being processed. 
     

    Also, there was a pair of older women who the helicopter was trying to spot in central London. Gee, I wonder if that’s them on your screen or do loads of people have a bloke with a camera running alongside them and filming them as they go. 

  12. There is no way Man Utd have ever had a worse fan base than for example Millwall or Rangers. Worse fanbase in football isn’t the most annoying, it’s the most violent, racist, homophobic and horrible cunts. The ones you fear for your town getting ransacked when they go on the rampage. Man Utd have never been in that conversation. 
     

    Sure, plenty of dickheads showed who they were by ignoring or turning a blind eye to people on the books being sex pests, but I bet you’d not get wrestling fans do something like that.
