  1. The first 6 movies were supposedly about the Skywalkers. And I mean they were, but Palpatine did orchestrate the whole thing until he died. I think it was fine that they brought him back and made Rey his granddaughter, but shouldn’t they have worked on that plot line in the 2nd movie? That is a huge development that was explained away in mere sentences. I mean they could have spent a lot of the 2nd movie developing that.

  2. It’s a f’n Monday night game. Gonna need damn near 100% certainty that Cook isn’t playing before Saturday games possibly. I managed to pick Boone up but mainly because I didn’t want my opponent to. Only one of my RBs I’d consider swapping him for would be Melvin Gordon in my flex.

  3. Alright, in champ game but my receivers are now a shit show thanks to Mike Evans and Adam Thielen injures (those were my 2nd & 3rd round picks iirc). I’m extremely solid at RB so can’t decide if I should start the higher ceiling or higher floor guys.

    Need 2 from these guys (non-ppr):
    Marquise Brown (high ceiling low floor)
    Deebo Samuel (higher floor imo)
    Adam Thielen (first game back last week was only targeted 3 times - riskiest play imo)
    Danny Amendola (highest floor but lowest ceiling imo)

    For what it’s worth they’re all projected to get 6.x pts except Thielen at 8.x. Also I’m projected to win by 5 pts with Thielen in there to give an idea of opponents team.

  4. Yeah fuck fantasy football almost fucked me yesterday with that bullshit Dallas/LA matchup.

    I’m predicted to win by 20 plus points (I’m number 1 seed and the 6th seed managed to win an upset last week) and everything is going to plan except Melvin Gordon shitting all over himself.

    But still hold a comfortable ~15 point lead with 6 minutes left in the Cowboys game. I have Dak & Zeke and my opponent has Goff & Cooks. Was sweating a Cooks TD reception then Gurley punches it in and drops the 2 point try. Whew, 3 mins left ok should be done. Then Dallas rightly so leaves Dak & Zeke on the bench. Nbd until Pollard scores a TD on like the next play. Mother fucker. Goff throws a TD to drop my lead to 2 pts. If Cooks had held onto that 2 pt try I would have lost. So dumb.

  5. This is the first time I haven’t been excited about a coordinator reshuffle. When Mack did it was probably the most exciting time. When Charlie did it I was foolishly hopeful that it would succeed and drank the koolaid. This time I know we’re just delaying the inevitable and it’s depressing.

  6. It’s ~$5mm/year for four years on Herman’s buyout 

     

    That’s what I though but it doesn’t fucking matter. What good does it do to be the richest athletic program out there if we can’t afford to fire a lame duck coach. And the amount of winning we would do with Meyer would result in so much more money it would make that make that $5mm/yr look like chump change.

  7. He should be fired at the end of the season. What has he done to deserve to get to reload his coaching staff? Mack earned that right. But neither Charlie nor Tom have. It’s idiotic to let the same guy that just picked this shit staff to go do it again. And everyone knows that. Other coaches, recruits, etc. It’s a sinking ship. Cut bait. Anyone who can’t see that should be fired also.

  8. Well, this was the first time I trained through all of summer, and the work really paid off. I posted a 1:25:57 at the Hill Country Half Marathon on Saturday which earned me a 2nd overall male finish. I had a goal of 1:31, but the conditions were favorable, so I just went after it starting at mile 2 and got locked in to a good pace. I feel really encouraged with the results heading into my marathon in early December.  


    Hell yeah man! That’s awesome! Congrats!

  9. Think I found your results and if so, well done!! I can't imagine what it's like to compete at Kailua-Kona among the titans of your sport. It's a hell of an accomplishment to just make it there, but to post times like you did is incredible.   


    Thanks! I finished in 10:04. It was an unbelievable experience. Seeing the pros coming the other way on the bike and the run was awesome. Caught myself chuckling over and over again about being on the course doing the race. Didn’t stop smiling until the 2nd half of the run lol.
