Work in sports. Most enjoy talking about the beautiful game, music and family. Parkinson’s knocks us down but we get back up (with a lot of help). #YNWA
Me too (also last night)! Look at Igor Jesus's touch heatmap over the past 6 PL matches (thanks FFS)

I thought FH while traveling this week would be fine. I’ll guess in advance that it’ll be a lesson learned. Especially with me breaking my eyeglasses— I’m not even sure this is a picture of my team. Possible that I’m typing this on a potato rather than my phone.

Have a good weekend.

FT Truffert -> van Hecke. Why score points when you can chase them?

Up to 30.8m in bank. All non-WC first-half chips remain.

Neglected to get a team picture and don’t really care because here’s yesterday’s view. Have a great weekend.

Meh. Need a little cash for my big plan to stop the freefall.

30.7m in bank. All non-WC first-half chips remain.

Meh-

Last week before likely FH and then 5FT. So I was like the drunk guy at the supermarket making smart purchases. That jalapeño flavored beef jerky looked really good at the time.

OR 360k? 🧢🤖 because I won't 🧢MU again.
Sarr/Senesi-> Gakpo/Hall

Winter has come. Have a good whatever-

Must admit that winter has caught me off guard. Guess someone should have raked up the leaves already.

Liz still upset about LFC. Takes it out on Casemiro. Malen in. My hand trembled briefly over the TC chip activation button. It always does that (Parkinson's). Thankfully I didn't accidently push it.

30.6m in bank. All non-WC first-half chips remain.

Have a good weekend-

Quietly slips the FH chip back into his pocket with one hand while loudly slapping the TC chip onto the table with the other one.

OR 352k. TC 🤖 VC Sarr.
Big Gabby makes way for NOR.
Seems a bit of a crapshoot with these defenders this week.

Winter is coming. Have a good weekend-

Liz is upset about LFC thus she's acting out with the Anthony to Casemiro transfer. I'm feeling Kroupi goal(s) but couldn't make the 🧢leap without higher Xmin.

30.2m in bank. All first-half chips but WC remain. But not for long, I guess.

Have a good weekend-

No defender I wanted in place of Big Gab given the four others in my squad so FT rolled. Chips remaining: TC, FH.

OR 370k. Captain alternative to 🤖 considered but can anyone outscore a hypoxic chamber 🤖?

Have a good weekend-

Liz says hello to everyone! She has a great smile but that’s typically reserved for when she’s herded both adults into the same location. Being alone can definitely make some days tougher for me and Liz. Both glad to have the other around though! And she keeps the geese out of the yard!

Tried waiting until GW12 to WC, but too many problems as exhibited by OR drop from 17k a few weeks ago to 266K currently. Chips remaining: TC, FH.

I prefer playing with 5 cheap defenders rotating based on fixtures but not having Arsenal D / set pieces untenable.

Have a good weekend-

Liz says the DCL experiment is over. For ever. Hanging on to the 30m podium by the toenails but they're starting to bleed. Saved by cap'n Xhaka in GW10.

Two FT:
Stach -> Potts
DCL -> Thiago

30.1 m in bank. All first-half chips but WC remain.

Have a good weekend-

Congratulations to my boy (13) and his college teammates on winning the Missouri Valley Conference regular season title last night. Leicester-like worst to first story. Now on to the quarterfinals of the MVC tourney. Winner to NCAA D1 tournament. 13 has been immense in the midfield all year!
November 6, 2025 at 8:28 AM
The boy and his Northern Illinois University teammates outshot and outplayed nationally ranked UMKC but couldn’t finish off the upset tonight. Good goal off a long lung-busting run into the box by my fav player.

Let’s go 13 (and teammates)!

Fun trying to figure out who might shine among these less expensive stars. Final GW1 draft, 0.0 (+30.0) ITB. #FPL30m

Good showing at Indiana Statehouse for #StandUpForScience2025.

My friends, we need to act quickly to keep the best science infrastructure in the world from being intentionally dismantled. The repercussions will be rapid and extreme if we don’t rise from our comfy chairs and engage. Now.

4 great men's soccer teams qualified for next week's NCAA #CollegeCup. Saw Marshall up close. Strong team. Played son's NIU team to 1-1 preseason draw (my frosh with this goal). Ohio St so good. But Vermont and Denver (was on faculty at DU) places I once called home-- would love either winning.

Haven't shared much about my PD, but this clip from a few weeks ago is a good depiction of the ups and downs. I'm in the red t-shirt and hat jumping up to celebrate my son's first college soccer goal (road game winner in final minute) and then taking an awesome tumble down a ramp. Smooth 😎
