    - you're right, I hope you draft well in the first two rounds - crash davis Aug 19, 11:00

- it's incredible the extent to which that genre has been killed dead -- nm - prayformojo Aug 19, 09:27 2
  - Romance is dead because of an increasingly cynical world -- nm - amoxy - 2017 Caveman Champion Aug 19, 10:54

Today's run: 10 miles interval progression (alternate miles easy/moderate, each set faster than the one before) - Dano Aug 19, 07:37 10
- A 5K fun run, would be a cool part of a STravaganza sometimes--themed costumes optional, but encouraged -- nm - Flavorize Aug 19, 08:39 4
  - "Fun" and "run" almost never belong in the same sentence together. only whenit's a sentence saying they don't belong in the same sentence together. -- nm - Cuzzin Todd Aug 19, 09:52 1
    - I'd settle for a 5K run/walk. I don't believe my muscles remember the concept of "run" :/ -- nm - Meg Aug 19, 10:08
  - There’s always Disney’s Dopey Challenge and people could choose which races they wanted to do. -- nm - Dano Aug 19, 08:47 1
    - Interesting--Day 1: 5K Day 2: 10K---Day 3: Half M Day 4: Full M -- nm - Flavorize Aug 19, 08:54
- way to finish strong! -- nm - crash davis Aug 19, 08:35
- very nice -- nm - prayformojo Aug 19, 08:32
- That's fantastic--difficult and marvelous! -- nm - Flavorize Aug 19, 08:28
- Impressive pacing 🙂 - JD Aug 19, 08:04 1
  - Most of the runs with the group are about pacing. It’s a lot about how am I going to feel 5, 10, 15, 20 miles from now and not how do I feel right now -- nm - Dano Aug 19, 08:42
Redmond is keeping a kicker. -- nm - Krusty Aug 19, 07:30 51
- You guys talked me into keeping Baltimore instead -- nm - Bacon Aug 19, 08:49 8
  - Dig *up*. -- nm - Spawn: Blood Feud God Aug 19, 12:50
  - Thanks a lot everyone. - the wrong element, bad guy Aug 19, 09:28 2
    - They should have been free anyhow. -- nm - Will Hunting Aug 19, 10:58
    - Ha! -- nm - Krusty Aug 19, 10:45
  - Don't listen to them, go with your gut -- nm - crash davis Aug 19, 08:55 1
    - I reserve the right to flip it back. -- nm - Bacon Aug 19, 09:02
  - Baltimore? Huh...Z had a great year -- nm - amoxy - 2017 Caveman Champion Aug 19, 08:52 1
    - LOL! BTW I upgraded Prescott to Drew Brees. -- nm - Bacon Aug 19, 08:53
- Smart--Saves himself a 7th round pick -- nm - Flavorize Aug 19, 08:29
- He Loves Leg -- nm - Budice Aug 19, 08:26
- Don't have a top 15 TE, and Greg the Leg is the top kicker out there. - Bacon Aug 19, 07:32 17
  - Who do you have as a defense? -- nm - Will Hunting Aug 19, 07:45 14
    - Balt and Pitt, and I thought about keeping one of those. - Bacon Aug 19, 07:50 13
      - Kickers are worse up and down. And almost completely replaceable. Keep the defense. Fewest points allowed equals keeper. -- nm - Will Hunting Aug 19, 08:22 12
        
        This is good standard advice. I think Redmond is a daring outside-the-box player. He should consider conventional vs daring when deciding this. -- nm - crash davis Aug 19, 08:28
        
        Z had a career year last year. It was literally about 50% better than his normal year. All that did was make him equal to Gostowski -- (edited) - Will Hunting Aug 19, 08:24 10
        
        I think big Rams leads lead to more FG but I think you guys are talking me out of it -- nm - Bacon Aug 19, 08:44 9
        
        Did you trade Ingram? That's gotta be your 5th keeper -- nm - Flavorize Aug 19, 08:48 8
        
        We can't keep 3 RBS because a bunch of babies voted no on it. -- nm* - Bacon Aug 19, 08:49 7
        
        I assumed we were going to change, so I missed voting in the poll. I wanted the change -- nm - crash davis Aug 19, 09:06 2
        
        5 anythings would be good--If we were to vote on a rule change, I'd like .5 PPR or 1pt PPR--No PPR greatly favors RBs -- nm - Flavorize Aug 19, 09:13
        
        This is why we have Trump -- nm - Bacon Aug 19, 09:07
        
        I did not know this--so 2's the max at any position? -- nm - Flavorize Aug 19, 08:57 2
        
        You can keep 2 rb or 2 wr, then 1 of the other, a QB and 1 TE,K,DEF -- nm - Bacon Aug 19, 08:58 1
        
        If I could have kept another RB Ingram would have been it. -- nm - Bacon Aug 19, 08:58
        
        This! -- nm - Krusty Aug 19, 08:55
  - Didn’t you trade for JuJu? -- nm - Will Hunting Aug 19, 07:35 1
    - I traded away Juju -- nm - Bacon Aug 19, 07:38
- Like...how -- nm - Will Hunting Aug 19, 07:32
- And you MF'ers are screwed if my RBs stay healthy this year, especially since I have the second pick. You're all playing for second place. -- nm - Krusty Aug 19, 07:31 20
  - I tried trading McCoy AND Gronk for the 1st overall pick--Kelly is not giving up that #1 pick for anything -- nm - Flavorize Aug 19, 08:43 3
    - I have trouble finding where I can reply to you on the mobile site. Yeah, not giving that one up. -- nm - kelly Aug 19, 09:13
    - I offered her 2 first round picks (I had a trade ready to go for another 1) and she turned that down. -- nm - Bacon Aug 19, 08:48
    - If she's not doing it with Gronk involved she's not doing it. -- nm - Krusty Aug 19, 08:45
  - Oh you have Dalvin Cook and Melvon Gordon? Oh wait, those are mine. -- nm - Bacon Aug 19, 07:33 15
    - Zeke and David Johnson. :-) -- nm - Krusty Aug 19, 07:36 14
      - Dallas is a Prescott injury away from being a 0-16 team...their backup situation is bad...so, so bad. -- nm - Flavorize Aug 19, 08:44 5
        
        But their RB situation is good...so, so good. - Krusty Aug 19, 08:47 4
        
        Teddy looks amazing...I can't wait to see what the price tag is for him, I bet the Jets get a 3rd--the whole league was stupid when they passed on him - Flavorize Aug 19, 08:50 3
        
        We were in a great position to sit on him and let him recover. He is definitely worth a 3rd and the Jets can use it after giving up their 2nd. - Krusty Aug 19, 08:53 2
        
        Philly should be calling--Denver too. Really, might be good to play Teddy for a year and let the kid develop+play some cleanup duty -- nm - Flavorize Aug 19, 08:56 1
        
        Philly has no need. - Will Hunting Aug 19, 09:57
      - Didn't Dallas lose their top O Lineman yesterday? I have Prescott and I am worried about that, you should be too -- nm - Bacon Aug 19, 07:38 7
        
        I have Brees I can trade you for a pick. Huge upgrade over Prescott. -- nm - Krusty Aug 19, 07:50 4
        
        Sent a message on Facebook -- nm - Bacon Aug 19, 08:01 3
        
        I have Blake Bortles to trade you for a pick. Huge upgrade over Prescott--BLAKE BORTLES! -- nm - Flavorize Aug 19, 08:41 2
        
        I had Bortles 2 years ago. Man that guy is frustrating -- nm - Bacon Aug 19, 08:54
        
        Ha! :-) -- nm - Krusty Aug 19, 08:44
        
        He got hurt but the evaluations were good and it doesn't look like it's all that serious. -- nm - Krusty Aug 19, 07:49 1
        
        That is good to hear! -- nm - Bacon Aug 19, 07:51
Wake up! -- nm - znufrii Aug 19, 07:17 1
- Huddersfield, not yet. -- nm - Budice Aug 19, 07:18
B2: Durian is *huge* business. you can go on multi-day Durian tours in Malaysia to sample the different cultivars. Apparently D24 is the best. -- nm - mafic Aug 19, 02:49

- I will *end* you. -- nm - Reagen Aug 19, 05:05
I picked up the Weight Watcher's weekly newsletter this morning and did a double-take - then realized it was a guy on the cover. - Meg Aug 18, 22:28 [Attachment]
I was curious and here are the proposed Space Force Logos -- (link) - crash davis Aug 18, 22:25 7
- Sorry, those are all lame and look like logos for a kids line of toys. -- nm - IrishStephen Aug 18, 22:35 1
  - Don't be sorry. You are correct. -- (link*) - crash davis Aug 18, 22:41
- The Mars Awaits one is particularly stupid. This is supposed to be a military branch, and Mars is a NASA mission -- nm - crash davis Aug 18, 22:29 1
  - you misunderstand.. they're going to invade mars. -- nm - colin Aug 19, 08:16
- Security expert: Trump's space force logos send 'wrong message' - crash davis Aug 18, 22:26 2
