However, it seems that may be changing with the upcoming port of the 3DS Mii-based RPG title Miitopia to the Nintendo Switch just next month.

It appears that a good number of Swift’s loyal fans are currently obsessed with Animal Crossing: New Horizons. Several Swifties have flooded Twitter, Reddit, and Tumblr with a flurry of custom made clothes inspired by the real-life merchandise of the pop star. Fans even recreated Swift’s look from her “You Belong With Me” music video, while others added custom images in the game and recreated the album covers of Swift’s entire discography from her self-titled record to last year’s Lover....

GoldenEye 007 was released for the Nintendo 64 in 1997 and gained a reputation as one of the best first-person shooters available on consoles at the time.

While fans came up with creative career choices for Kevin Holland, former opponent Derek Brunson used it as an opportunity to troll him for his UFC 279 loss. Fans didn’t take too kindly to Brunson’s words. Despite his middleweight victory over Holland, @Shice_T felt that Brunson wouldn’t fare any better against the No.3-ranked welterweight: @Dfs_sacre poked fun at Brunson’s age and apparent lack of maturity: Brunson was warned by a fan that he is next to be sent into retirement by Khamzat Chimaev:...

Instead, we can look at advanced stats and try to figure out who overachieved last year and is getting drafted too highly this year because of it. We can also compare players to others at their positions and point to better values who can help you maximize all the picks in your draft....

The hot closer talk starts at 43:48, but before that we go over the fallout from the four big injuries of Week 1 (Trea Turner, Giancarlo Stanton, Miguel Andujar, and Daniel Murphy) and discuss a few popular waiver pickups, including Kolten Wong, Tim Beckham, and Trey Mancini (full list is below the podcast player). Watch ChangeUp, a new MLB live whip-around show on DAZN Along the way, we also discuss whether Chris Sale is a “pitcher” or a “thrower”, nicknames for David Hess, Mike Trout and Hunter Strickland, if a homer and stolen base in the same game should be called a “combo meal”, “smash-n-grab”, or “Dong Johnson”, what exactly a “mallet finger” is, watching baseball on mute, punting SBs, “Jay Bruce” types, selectively ignoring stats, distracting day games, the loss of the Marlins’ home run sculpture, the difference between being an “eighth-inning guy” and having “closer experience”, reading the closer tea leaves, what Terrance Gore does during batting practice, and much more....

Who’s Not: De La Rosa might be the only starting pitcher worth investing in. Colorado ranked 28th in the majors in team ERA (4.44). … Michael Cuddyer enjoyed a 20-homer season, but his BABIP (.382) was abnormally high. Expect some regression.
