NBA 2k19: The New World (Introduction)

In April of last year, I launched what proved to be what of my favorite projects ever, The New Millennium, a long term, grand scale simulation, covering an entirely new reality of basketball in NBA 2k19. That series would spill over into my second blog, and ran for 66 episodes, crowning many new legends and reinvigorating my interest in the sport. While I've searched a long time since to recapture the magic of that series, nothing has quite caught fire in the way The New Millennium did. And so, I think it's time to go back to where it all began. Ladies and gentlemen, Henry's World and NBA 2k19 present...........................The New World.




-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------




It's October 16th, 2018. You may not know my name, you may have never gazed upon my face, but when all this is over, my legacy will be forever etched in the stars. For many years, I have been perhaps the most notorious oil tycoon on the planet, earning my place in the world with treachery and deceit. Many men chose to defy me, but none will again. Seeking a new challenge, I have arrived to the world of professional basketball, ready to conquer once more.You wouldn't believe how far a few "bonuses" in the right pocket will take you. 
Adam Silver agreed, not like he had much choice, to grant me new ownership in the league, with a new team in my hometown of Las Vegas. But a few donations later, and I had done what no man thought possible, securing six new franchises. My beloved Aces will be joined by the San Diego Surf in the Pacific Division, nothing wrong with a little healthy competition, while the Baltimore Barons joined the Atlantic, the Cincinnati Lions headed to the Central, the Virgina Storm set up shop in the Southeast and I brought basketball back to Vancouver, in the forms of the Ravens in the Northwest. 
My name is Floyd Goldworhty, and I'm about to make basketball my b****. 




-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------




So there you go, the beginning to a brand new simulation in NBA 2k19, this time set in the modern day at the start of the 2018-2019 season, with six new expansions teams joining the league, all helmed by Floyd Goldworthy. The Las Vegas Aces are the only team I downloaded, while the other five were just using 2k's default selections. All 30 teams already in the NBA were allowed to protect 10 members of their roster, leaving the expansion teams to scoop up the scraps. Check in tomorrow to get a breakdown of what each team looks like heading into their first year of existence. This should be a great new beginning for my blog, and I hope all of you are as excited as I am.

South Park "Not Funny" Review

Good night, amateur trolls that trolled a troll and trolled themselves into a troll, brothers. With one episode to go in the season, South Park has remained consistently funny and on-point with their humor, though I worry about how their going to wrap all of this up. There are a good six to seven ongoing storylines right now, and only one episode to finish off a few of them. There was no clear focus this week, but I'll start where the episode ended, with Gerald's troll-based storyline. It's pretty satisfying to see the Troll Hunter's massive revelation; that he is, in fact, just another troll, bent on world destruction. Even Gerald couldn't find the humor in his master plan, as the Troll Hunter is truly in a league of his own. With the world on the brink of war, the trolling has truly begun, as the Troll Hunter went to work on his own employees and the other trolls, though why they had to be naked for that is beyond me. Kyle is always a sucker for saving the ...

Henry's Universe Mode #231: WrestleMania II (Part 3)

Finn Balor vs The Undertaker Finn Balor felt the full force of the strikes of The Undertaker in the early going, eating rights and lefts to the skull. The Undertaker continued to lay into Balor, dumping him to the floor with a clothesline, then following up with his vintage suicide dive! After a brief skirmish on the outside, the Deadman got destructive, grabbing the Demon's throat and driving him through the announce table with a chokeslam! It was here that The Undertaker allowed Finn Balor a chance to just give up and concede defeat, but Balor wasn't having any of it. Finn got his second wind, countering an attempted chokeslam to connect with a reverse DDT, then the shotgun dropkick in the corner. Up top, Finn connected with Coup de Grace! 1........................2.......................but it's going to take a lot more to put The Undertaker away, especially at WrestleMania. Balor laid in some shots, busting The Undertaker open, but that proved to be a huge mistake. ...
