i will do this once because it feels necessary:
i am herms, a human who is paid to write about fantasy football. i focus mostly in redraft and dynasty strategy/theory.
if that is of interest to you as well, i will be sharing thoughts about the subject and links to stuff i do on here.
that is all.

Herms is feeling sick, unfortunately, but that didn't stop two of my best pals in @fftylero.bsky.social and special guest co-host @wyattbff.bsky.social from delivering an excellent new episode of the Crossing Routes Podcast (fueled by @ftnfantasy.com):

officially through S1 and into S2 now. thus far, my favorite character is Capt. Holt (RIP Andre Braugher), but honestly the entire ensemble works very well together.
UPDATE: I've started watching Brooklyn Nine-Nine for the first time.

November's been bleh. if I've seemed moody/grumpy lately, it's because I have been. gotta own that — my bad. idk, I get that people tune out the deeper we get, but this season is the first time I've just felt... ignored? true or not tho, it's no good reason to be a dweeb. I hope everyone is well. 🙏❤️

It's vital to be up to speed on the incoming rookie class in fantasy football. The more you do, the less of a shock draft season it is.

what's most annoying is that I've seen (some) arguments from people suggesting that talent is "gatekeeping" for creative arts or something. idk man, sometimes being good at/inclined toward a skill is required! I'm not that good at drawing, but I don't harbor weird resentment toward those who can!
truly baffled by folks who think purely AI-generated imagery counts as "art"
