Finbarr just wrote me back and called me Don. I have no idea where that came from. As I've mentioned, I get Steve on the regular, but not clue where the hell Don came from.
I think Finbarr may become my nemesis.I'm not expecting to grow flowers in the desert...Comment

Finbarr is the anglicized version of Fionnbharr, an old Irish name. There's even a saint associated, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Finbarr_of_Cork
The fun part though - the name comes from the roots "fionn" meaning white and "barr" meaning head. Whitehead.

Watching the sixers - rockets game. Usually I hate when I'm stuck with the opposing teams announcers, but these Houston announcers, who I am pretty sure are both drunk, are entertaining as hell.I'm not expecting to grow flowers in the desert...Comment

Most of the announcers who are stuck with bad teams sound desperate to shine the shit that's on the floor. They pump up the one prospect, or talk about how the coach has them all playing hard or whatever... these two had some of that, but they also had a whole lot of "we know we suck and are going to lose, but we're at a basketball game instead of working 9-5, so let's have some fun!" Hell, the rockets dressed 8 for the game due to injuries and covid protocol and one guy twisted his ankle half way through, so they played a good part of the game with 7. THey lost by 20 and it was never close. Yet the announcers talked up the sixers a ton, and just came at it as basketball fans having a good time. Really enjoyed it.I'm not expecting to grow flowers in the desert...Comment

I probably can't give Lamet away, I'm keeping Sixto and moved Pearson a few days ago in a deal for Lance Lynn and Rhys Hoskins. Regarding the 35 QS question, I'm thinking the under at this point. I sure hope Lamet gets better, but it doesn't look goodPONY auction was yesterday and I came out of it with 7 players on the IL.
I'm hoping I can patch together like 1.5 seasons of decent ball from a combination of Lamet, Sale, Mikolos, Pearson, and Sixto.
What's the over/under on 35 QS there?
I had saved Lamet and Pearson, have Sixto in the minors, auctioned Sale for $3 and took Mikolos in the 3rd round of the reserve draft (15 teams)---------------------------------------------
