If they weren't going to show the battle and so not reveal his team, not sure why they had to have it so decisive. Like it should have been 6-4. Or even 6-3 but could have commented he switched out some that were on their last legs. That margin of victory at this point is stupid.

Major MHA spoilers below.

People really out here saying getting annoyed at Bakugo not being dead is dumb because we should know that MHA is a merch machine first and it's totally acceptable that it wouldn't stick.

I don't think knowing why something lame happens in the story means it's not OK to be annoyed that it sucks.

I'm fine with him getting revived if it happens. As I mentioned earlier, it would be fairly jarring for Deku to save Shigaraki after he discovers Bakugo's dead. Even more so if they are just chilling as friends in the epilogue. Of course there's the chance that doesn't happen or it purely saves his soul type of thing before he ultimately dies anyway. But it's been made clear that saving Tomura is a pretty big plot point and important to the previous holders so it would be a surprise if Deku does a U-turn on trying to save him especially given his character

It's kinda ridiculous they were allowed to structure his deal in a way that avoids him losing more money from not playing.

Really they should factor it as an average over the length of remaining contract to stop teams from doing this shit when they know a fine/suspension is coming.

Worked for my current company since Feb 2005, only job I had before that was part time bar work or working for my Dad. Started there part time before I went to college and then after I graduated they didn't want me to leave so offered me a position I wasn't remotely qualified to do but they were positive I'd pick up quickly from past performance (Design Engineer). I transferred from the UK office to the US office in 2012 to become their QA Manager and then in 2016 I became the head of training.

I could probably leave and find another job relatively easy for an extra $50k+ a year but other than not being remote (20-30 min drive) I have great flexibility. I basically come and go as I please with zero oversight so I probably only put in 30 hours a week most of the time unless I get swamped with FDA compliance stuff. I also work with my best friend every day and my direct manager is the VP who is a close friend.

Downside is the pay I mentioned earlier (I'm on a decent salary, I just know I could get more elsewhere) and I'm at the ceiling of progression. Not that I would want the role above me anyway. And if the VP did leave, I'd go with him if possible or find another job if not.

I'd be surprised if it stuck and if he'll get revived/not actually dead but whew boy. Also I hadn't read in a few months so I caught up in time for this chapter, hell yea Tsukuyomi Ragnarok punch


EDIT: Should probably say this is MHA stuff since it's not clear when quoting a full spoiler post

I'm mixed about it. Like it probably should stick even if people don't like it because it's supposed to be high stakes. But it's gonna be jarring if they still try save Tomura, unless it's saving him via death. If he's waltzing around alive in the epilogue presumably whilst being friends with Deku, it wouldn't feel right if this sticks.

Following players are on the trade block

HB Ajayi (82 - 26yo)
FS Jackson (81 - 24yo - RFA eligible next season)
WR Strong (76 - 23yo - RFA eligible next season)
TE O'Leary (77 - 25yo - RFA eligible next season)
DE Freeman (87 - 26yo)

HB Ajayi was a former 1st round pick who has missed a season through IR and ridden the bench to limited reps. His production has not been good in those limited reps. He doesn't really have any appeal imo but if you want to try a reclaimation project on a former high pick then go for it. He will be a cut eventually if not traded so I'm basically offering him out there as a whatever.

FS Jackson was a 2nd round pick who basically hasn't seen the field (9 Tackles, 1 INT across 2 seasons). So he's an unknown quantity but he's likely too expensive to keep around as a backup at a position where backups don't seem to play a ton

WR Strong has been WR4 for 2 seasons so has not seen the field much but has good YPC in those limited snaps (26 Rec, 382 yards, 14.69 YPC, 1 TD). Due to sample size it's entirely possible those numbers are propped up by 1 long catch or something. His appeal, if any, would be as a cheap WR3/4 who may pop and worst case could be tendered cheap next season.

TE O'Leary has 7 catches for 41 yards across 2 seasons so basically hasn't played. His draft profile was a receiving TE but that's only 5.86 YPC so... I guess his appeal would be similar to Strong but TE is a far cheaper position so the RFA tender part is less worthwhile

DE Freeman is a converted OLB. His production in 2 seasons at DE is not good (51 Tackles, 7 Sacks, 2 FF, 1 FR). So his appeal is basically a young high rated OVR DE where you would be hoping he performs better in a different defense. Steelers defense does have quite a few stat hungry players so it's possible they held him back stat wise but it is also entirely possible his production is bad due to being a converted OLB (this is the more likely option of the two imo). He would be on 6.2m after I ate the dead money.

I think Nets have more impetus to make a move than teams bidding on him purely because they don't own any of their future picks. Unless you can convince Kyrie/KD to run it back for 1 more year then entering the season with them both on the roster is a massive risk if they sit or phone it in until deadline. Last thing you want is to be shifting them both in January with the team sat in a lotto / play-in position

Aren't you a vet tech Ulti? It's so weird your stance on FIV is so different to mine

I work with like 6 different cat rescues and FIV is basically seen as a non issue and no problem for intermingling with other cats.

FELV is vastly different and a death sentence with no intermingling with non-FELV positive cats. But FIV+ is fine and is rarely transmitted between housecats unless they are fighting constantly
