2044-00035: Talons Actually Witness a Game Being Played on OOTP21, Find That FPS BBPro98 Has Better Graphics

Phoenix, AZ--

With all the talk in the BBA about some big series to end the season, the Talons decided to find out what all the fuss was about.

So they logged into Slack for like the third time this calendar year, and saw that this BBA Final Series (Or whatever it's name is) was being presented on a website called Skype, which sounds more like a skin rash than a communications platform. Anyway, upon clicking the helpful link presented by the Commish, the Talons were confronted with an error message stating that a "skype" did not exist on their trusty Windows 98 laptop. Fortunately, there was a web option available.

The Talons finally signed up and joined the game broadcast, which by then was in Game 7 in the ninth inning. Then the Talons were confused. What was this monstrosity on their screen? It looked like an Atari game at a half frame per second. The Talons tried to follow along, but couldn't make out what was happening through the choppy graphics. Then, it all ended and every participant logged off within like 10 seconds, leaving the Talons alone in the chat and wondering which player to profile next in their universally reviled Season Review Series.

But not before leaving a comment in the chat!

Still, no links so it's not really a Team News. *smirk*
