who gives a ****? how about letting it be an option about whether or not you have to follow a stupid ass, **** moronic storyline. 2k14 was the last good 2k game because you didn't have to sit through all of these asinine videos that mean nothing to actually playing. i heard 2k16 was even worse when spike lee took over.

i don't give a **** about all of those stupid interaction videos, off court non sense. some people do? allow the option to skip ALL of that bull **** 2k is going down hill. i won't be buying until they get rid of a storyline for career mode

Just fyi, there's a small circle of us here in Chicago that's still loyal to Drose, Noah, and Thibs. The Bulls treated them like a jealous-oppressive girlfriend. Now they're single, smiling and loving life again (and probably ready to ball).

Can't wait for this season

YouMustBeJoakim - even if you're not Joakim, feel free to join us here rooting for success for Drose and Noah. (Sorry, can't help you with Thibs, but he landed with a good young team.) One thing you'll notice about NYC is that we welcome people here from everywhere - even Chicago. We're good to our friends and hell on our enemies (Ted Cruz is still banned from Manhattan).

Jason Ellis just said that his manager just went out to lunch with Ron Artest. Artest ordered the most expensive steak on the menu and lamb chops to go. lol

Ok, promised to post up some pics of where I live. All but the last are on the south shore of Nova Scotia. If Trump is elected you are welcomed to crash at my place while you house shop. I'll post up some others of actual places/towns/city over the summer.

View from my cottage

These two I took a few years ago

And one more just to remind you that winter can hit hard here. There is a Dodge Caravan and a VW Passat under there. From winter 2014-15. There is a street buried in there somewhere.

The second photo and the one of the lighthouse are my two favorites - they can be legit background photos Apple uses for their computers. Well, all of them could. I know nothing about photography but they are really nice photos.

Really though, those beaches are that quiet all the time. They're not near any major cities so on a busy day there might be 30 people on the beach. We go to bed every night and hear nothing but waves.

That sounds so awesome. But you don't want too many of us to go there. :lol:

Tourists are great, but I hate it when Americans (or any out of towners for that matter) buy property and use the homes as vacation homes two weeks out of the year. It's a real problem here because it leaves the homes empty the rest of the year without having somebody living there to support the local economy. It also drives up the house prices for the local people who are being priced out of their own homes when there really isn't an actual real estate market (or at least demand). That being said I LOVE it when people from anywhere move here permanently. Our rural areas are screaming for people to move back, so if you're from the US and want somewhere to retire for most of the year it's a pretty beautiful and cheap place to do it.

Thanks for the pictures.

I spent three summers on Cape Breton Island as a kid and it was spectacular. The shoreline there had stretches where every mile it was a completely different form of beach geology. There were the rock crags that created coves you could swim in, beaches full of round stones from golf ball to softball size, pure sand beaches you could walk out into the water for half a mile and amazing sandstone cliffs that folded directly into the sea and you could swim from one stone toadstool to another like a chessboard.

The two places I will probably consider to move to are Nova Scotia or New Zealand. I like my nature bold and wild and mountains that rise out of the sea.

One of the coolest things about Nova Scotia is the natural diversity. We have the mountainous seaside in Cape Breton, the rocky wild ocean front on the southern end of the province with the small fishing villages, the thousands of acres of untouched wildlife reserve, and then the Annapolis valley full of rich farmland. I often stop and really absorb the beauty of the place.
