So, I know some folks will say--Who really wants to hear this, but you know me--I say, I want to say it so... read and comment or don't.
First I want to say--Mike...We'll miss you. Such a great guy, such a tremendous loss. Thanks for all the chit chat over the past year, knowing you took the time to humor me in my incessant trade requests with all you were going through.... You're the man. RIP.
So, why was GITH gone in the first place? I thought I knew everything--I did not. The AZ FORENSIC (per Ken) audit came back in favor of Biden... who knew? so, I kept my pledge to Art VandaRacist and went away for a while. It should have only been a month (and thanks for the encouragement to just stay, Chance) BUT I have to uphold my mantra of accountability so.... I left. I also have quit Facebook, Instagram and Twitter (though I keep a Padre burner acct to keep up on moves) I'm MUCH less stressed. I could have returned about a month ago, but hey--you guys got this--no need for me until Padre round up spring 2022.
Recap.
So the Padres collapsed and sucked epic (insert Phallus) causing great sadness in my house and home town. Let's try not to win the off season and concentrate on the regular season in 2022 ok boys?
I cashed in 4 out of my 5 roto leagues. RJEL was scary as I collapsed from 2nd to 6th, but moved into the money at 4th (pissing off the guys I traded my first and second round picks to. (Oh and I'm sure Jessie was all about me missing out*) I'd mortgaged my everything to cash and, whew...I got there. As Revo mentioned, I crawled into the sheets with him in our other league as we tied for 1st. NFBC was a fun gig, I finished 3rd (no money) but I learned quite a bit. 4th and 3rd in 2 other league whil the one league I didn't cash in--I was rebuilding so fantasywise 2021 went according to plan. I've left 2 of my leagues and next year replaced them with Revo's big money league and Zola's JBL league. Here's hoping for a bigger haul in 22.
What did I do with my Fantasy winnings? I took em and went to the WSOP (World Series of Poker) I played 3 tourneys and though I busted in 2, I took 4th in another (not a bracelet event) It was fun as it was the first tourney(s) I'd played in 2 years.
I also have to say...those who think Medicare/Medicaid/Medical is not as good as private insurance--don't know WTF you're talking about. I got Medical in Aug. It December (almost) I have had BOTH my eyes fixed (cataract surgery) I can see as well as I did when I was 21, 20/20-20/40, I had a physical (all good), blood tests, cancer screenings (all good) and was diagnosed with moderate to severe hearing loss, BUT got state of the art hearing aids--all for free and ALL in less than 6 months. I got my Booster just in time for the Omicron surge. So Healthwise--I'm ion the best state I've been in for years (though I HAVE to drop this covid weight) Anyone who can help me ditch 25-35 lbs, your suggestions would be appreciated.
Pam and I enjoyed a quiet thanksgiving, fixin the usual just for ourselves cuz the kids aren't vaxxed so they can't visit (I'm a bad Dad) just chilling knowing we're moving close to DMT (brace yourself) Pam got into all her UC school requests (US Davis, UCSD, UCLA and UC Riverside) BUT she's chosen to go to U of A to peruse her advanced degree in geology--yeah Pam!
Not that it matters, but I don't know Ill be as active outside of Padre info as I've come to the realization--Nothing anyone says really matters a damn bit. People are going to be who they are no matter how odious they might be. SO, Pam and I have decided to look for land, lots of it. So we might build a house far away from asshatland or keep MY ass away from potential conflict (Know Thyself--Socrates). It's cheap in SW AZ (there was a recent lot 40 acres for 75K) and we want to build a self-sustaining place so look for the solar panels and wind turbines...
Other than that--let me say-Congrats to all the winners from 2021's roto jungle, I hope you are all healthy and happy, stay safe and get vaxxed (fuckinullie), enjoy your holidays and I'll be back once the Padres have won the off season again (their coaching choices have been pretty excellent so far)
OK that's it.
PS. Watch 'Get Back' It's amazing.
Thanks RHD for your help, Chance for your hilarious phone calls and Revo for keeping this place going (and pulling the reigns to allow me that tie)
Peace/Out
Yeah I stole that.
Ok I'm done.
But I don't have a cat to chase...
FORENSIC.
(Do I have to pay Ken royalties for that?)
Admit it, ya missed me...........
