Granted, I’m in central time - but I loved being done with meaningful football at 11:30 am.

#SFB15 Scott Fish Bowl week 6 update.
In the positive side of the see-saw, ready to start a climb.
I won head to head and was above the median!
My star this week was Dallas Goedert - evidently Eagles WR1 - with 53.5 points.
Back up to .500 at 6-6.

Nice seats.
Someone needs to write a story about how stadium naming rights are way less cool than they used to be.
(Seriously, I had no idea what NW stadium was, and at least know the Bears don’t play at Northwestern’s stadium.)

Wowza.
Titans looked gawdawful yesterday.

Feeling pretty good about this trade sequence a week or so ago.
Trade Quentin Johnson for KW3
Then flipped him for Olave and Cade Stover.

8 steps forward.
9 sacks back.

Please, please don't just stick out your Penix...
That is one thing you need to know.

But also, I generally keep the same team name.

As amazing as SoFi Stadium is, it's not near ANYTHING, especially mass transit. The Broncos have such a great opportunity to extend community with their Burnham Yards development and small area plan.

What could Broncos stadium district at Burnham Yard look like? KSE’s Hollywood Park is one roadmap.

The Denver Broncos’ Burnham Yard plan could bring SoFi-style mixed-use development, blending housing, retail, and entertainment with a new stadium.

Tim Buckley (CEF):
“I think China is using it in a very, very geopolitically savvy way, taking advantage of America’s stupidity and regression back into a petrostate,” he says, adding: “China just wins.
America has abrogated the playing field.”

Even as an infrequent NY traveler (avg 1 visit/22 yrs), I applaud this wholeheartedly.
On our visit 2 weeks ago, flying into Terminal A - was directed to a bus that would take us to the Air Train, only to watch it do a glorified U-turn. They could've made a 1,600 ft walkway and avoided the shuttle.

Works begins on Newark Airport’s new $3.5B AirTrain | 6sqft

Newark Airport's new AirTrain fleet will include seven five-car trains, each carrying 135 to 160 passengers—more than doubling the current capacity.

Great? Idk
Good? Heck yeah.
I had an extra ticket to a cool soccer game in Philly and got to meet one of my BlueSky pals @guamdon.jawn.wtf

Cool. I tried to buy Nabers.
Quentin Johnson and 2 1sts was not enough.

Chris Doherty @chrisdohertycfm.bsky.social · 7d

I think conditional trades (and locking of picks) will suppress trades overall.
Last year I tracked the 5 times I owned the same 4.05 rookie pick.
This year, I tracked the 6 times the 1.03 (and later Tet McMillan) were traded before the NFL season even started.

Chris Doherty @chrisdohertycfm.bsky.social · 7d

How would you even go about administering this?
I assume the proper process would lock all possible picks. That takes a significant amount of flexibility away.
Take measured chances and live with the results

One of my favorite soccer games ever - watching my friend’s kids elite team in a prestigious tourney.
Playing a team from a blue collar town that all grew up together. The lunch pail kids destroyed my friend’s elite team.
TBH I was cheering for the other team after a while. Not unlike Rocky 4.

Chris Doherty @chrisdohertycfm.bsky.social · 7d

I coached a really good local U-16 (then 17) girls soccer team. The best of them joined the best from the neighboring club for U-18 to compete a division up.
Went to a game that wasn’t going well.
Quip from a mom, “well there goes her scholarship!”
IDK WTF. It can be fun. Or some contrived destiny.

#SFB15 Scott Fish Bowl week 5 update:
We are back on the see-saw.
Not a bad week, but 2 losses and not very close.
Puka was great. I finally had a good week from Calvin Ridley, who gets my gif of the week.
Record: 4-6
9th in Houston Texans division.
3042nd overall
