    UVA-Cuse was a classic - that's the kind of game that creates fans.  Crazy to see Paul Gait in a wheelchair and still looking like the fitter Gait brother.

    Cuse-Cornell from a couple of weeks ago was insane.  Can still probably watch the replay on ESPN+.

    Oh! I should note I am the proud owner of a 2023 Westwood Lax State Champ shirt.

    Congrats! Not something we ever accomplished when I played there in the early 90s despite having one of the better teams in the state.  However, my daughter did find one of my old Westwood lacrosse shirts at my parent's house that she likes to wear around.

  3. I use DraftKings and Fanduel sportsbooks.  I think DraftKings offers better odds boosts and promos but Fanduel has the same game parlays, which are fun.  I've downloaded William Hill and BetMGM but didn't like the interfaces.  With that being said, if you are in Texas or somewhere that doesn't allow mobile betting, these are probably not available to you.

  4. I lucked out on HotStock last week and was able to get an xbox at Best Buy that I will be available for pickup on Saturday.  All my son wants right now is Madden, so I'm going to get that.  Any recs on games that my daughter might like?  She's 12 and plays games like Roblox on her phone and Animal Crossing on the Switch.

  5. Had a brutal one last night.  Was able to navigate without CMC pretty much all season and still made our championship game.  Ended up making a bunch of bad decisions this week that didn't work out.  Picked up Hurts (his knee was down) and benched Wilson.  Streamed both Browns D and Bears D and decided to start Browns.  Picked up both Jeff Wilson Jr and Fournette and started Fournette based on matchup.  Started Marvin Jones Jr who ended up with 4 points.  Found myself up by about 22 going into last night and my opponent still had Jones and Henry, so didn't think I had a chance.  Ended up losing by .94.  I knew it was over when Jones stepped out and they said he stayed in.

    I highly recommend everyone check out the championship at 11:30 on NBC.  Paul Rabil is on to something with this league.

    I'm with you TexEx. I played in HS and been coaching my son's teams for the last 3 years.  We went last year when they came to Denver and was a great atmosphere and did a great job getting the kids involved.  We watched the majority of the games over the last 2 weeks and most of them came down to the last 2 minutes.  Plus, I'm in Colorado and you can bet on the games now.

  7. Over the weekend, wife was watching Love is Blind on Netflix.  Son who just turned 8 sits down and she explains what is going on and to never find a girl this way.  He responds with "I want a thick girl".  Are we gonna have a little Vic on our hands?

  8. I might have had one of the worst fantasy weeks ever.  I actually have a pretty decent team and sitting 3rd in my league with 3rd highest point total.  Russ Wilson, Saquon, Josh Jacobs, Sutton did nothing.  Golladay was my high scorer at 10.10 and the only person who broke double digits.  Thought Jaylen Samuels against the Bengals was going to be huge with Conner out, but of course not.  Was just a perfect storm of shit.

  9. I was waiting with my kids for the bus this morning.  My 7 year old son was asking when Thanksgiving was and I was explaining that it falls on the 4th Thursday of November every year.  My 11 year old daughter starts telling us that 2020 is going to be awesome because Halloween, Christmas, and New Years all fall on a Friday.  Then she adds "Also, hopefully Trump won't be President anymore".

  10. I screwed myself this week since Russ was on a bye and I didn't trust Kyler against the Niners.  Tried to pick up Carr on waivers but didn't get him.  At that point, should have just stuck with Kyler.  Nope, picked up Kyle Allen and was rewarded with 5.7 pts.  Kyler would have gotten me 26.7.

    No need to brag about the big city, Marine.  All my in-laws hail from a variety of towns just east/southeast of there--Grainfield, Hoxie, Grinnell, Park, Gove City, and Quinter.  We've probably passed each other on those county dirt roads, lifting a finger off the steering wheel, as if to say..."where's the liquor store?"   It ain't the end of the World out there...but you can see it from there.  

    Gotta love Western Kansas.  My wife's family is from Wakeeney and used to go quite a bit before her grandmother passed away seven years ago.  Now I only have to go once every 3 years for the family reunion.

    dont know who you ended up going with, but i should’ve just gone with my initial gut feeling. TB is so bad against qbs. I was afraid of suggesting to sit Russ, but in hindsight this was a no brainer. TB is that bad 

    Kyler ended up outscoring Russ by 10.  No worries, I still won.  This week will have another decision to make since Russ is on a bye.  Go with Kyler against the Niners or stream a QB this week?  Options available are Carr vs Bengals, Darnold vs Redskins, or Allen vs Falcons.

    I stuck with Russ. We’ll see what happens but I should still be alright since my opponent didn’t have a great week (except for Lamar). My biggest mistake was I had Kirk at flex and changed it to Samuels. Then almost replaced Golladay with Kirk this morning when Stafford was out but didn't. 

  14. Have a flex question this week.  It comes down to Samuels vs Rams or Ekeler vs Raiders.  I would rather start Samuels but only if Conner is out, which hasn't been determined yet.  Ekeler plays tonight.  If I roll the dice and stick with Samuels and then Conner ends up playing, I will have to choose between sticking with Samuels, Mixon vs Ravens, McCoy vs Titans, or Kirk vs Bucs.  Thoughts?

  15. Fuck my league.  We apparently don't have a no-drop player list in our league and some girl this week (who is 3-5 but only one game out of a playoff spot) dropped David Johnson for Dan Fucking Bailey.  A top 10 RB, when healthy and should be back next week, for a kicker.  I seem to be the only one who cares and when I brought it up to the commissioner, he said he didn't want to piss her off by bringing it up to her.  Oh yeah, he is the one who picked Johnson up.

  16. In one of my leagues I am loaded at WR, with 5 in the top 17 of ESPN's rankings this week.  It's 1 pt PPR.  Julio, Godwin, Golladay, Boyd, and Chark.  My TE is Delanie Walker who I've gotten nothing from the last 2 weeks and just picked up Chris Herndon who was just activated but also just got hurt.  I'm thinking about trading Julio for Travis Kelce.  Is that a smart trade?

  17. In my main league, got off to a nice 3-0 start but ran into a little bad luck this week.  Lost Barkley, Gordon ended his holdout and I've been riding Ekeler (still obviously starting him this week), Delanie Walker questionable, and doesn't look like McLaurin is playing after just putting him at flex.

    So, at flex my options are:

    LeSean McCoy vs Det

    Christian Kirk vs Sea

    Josh Jacobs vs Colts

    Then, if Walker can't go, who do I stream this week?

    Witten vs NO

    Vernon Davis vs Giants

    Eifert vs Pit
