Presenting Your 2049 Media Guide!

Post by Lane » Sun Dec 05, 2021 6:46 pm

Esteemed General Managers of the BBA:

Please click below for this year's Media Guide.

LINK

We have some great features from @Jwalk100, @7teen, @aaronweiner and the Caleca Award organized by @woods and written by @mragland.

Of course we also have your favorite part, previews! Aaron, Chris, Woody and @chicoruiz tackled them this season.

This version of the guide is a little bare-bones, and it's 100% my fault. I'm going through a rough season of life (as are many of us) and was also dealing with some tech issues. I'll be sure to clean it up for the archive.

Regardless, I hope you enjoy it, and I wish you the best of luck in 2049!

Awesome job! And I'm considering it a serious, binding prediction that we'll win at least 85 games.

Everything written about the Storm is binding. Especially about Japanese witches.

@aaronweiner
On one hand I'm delighted with the Joe King pun. On the other I'm sad you went with the lowest hanging dad joke. Either way, great work again.

Another fantastic media guide everyone. Shoutout to @Lane for piecing this thing together. Amazing.

I did have a large collection of Unem Ploid jokes, but I was unable to deploy them in the space allotted.

But I still thought the Joe King was better than "Debbie Does Dallas Dixon." Little too on the, um, nose.

I'd like to commend Chris Aaron for sneaking a Walt Whitman reference into the Projection Room segment--both the reference and segment were enjoyed immensely.

"I too am not a bit tamed—I too am untranslatable;
I sound my barbaric yawp over the roofs of the world."


"Song of Myself," Verse 52.

I am already in love with the Media Guides and it amazes me that this much work is put in each season.

That was me, actually. My first two loves were poetry and baseball.
