    So he's beating his own season of awesomeness? Yeah, he's pretty fucking good. The changeup he developed this year is nasty.

    Is your league PPR? PT Cruiser got me some serious bench point from all those receptions. I know the Saints RB situation is always fucked, but Thomas is probably the most reliable out of everyone there. I think I'd go for Cam in that second QB slot. He's just so much better than Alex Smith...

    I also saw this article on ESPN. They never have decent articles. I had no idea how amazing of a season Aroldis Chapman has been having. I think it's because the Reds have tanked so hard this season. The mind-blowing stats of Aroldis Chapman - Jayson Stark Blog - ESPN

    Court rules Yelp.com can manipulate ratings

    It's skeezy and I hate the practice, but Yelp is still good for identifying the the really good places. But there are some serious gems on Yelp that might have only 3 or 3.5 stars. I don't mind. Because when you discover those places, they don't have 45 minute waits.

    I understand Araysar's point completely. Gender equality is a thing or it isn't. It does look like she hit him first and then lunged at him. In the spur of the moment, he just raised his fist and clocked her. I'm not sure it's worthy of getting suspended indefinitely from your job -...

    But NFL players have a union and a CBA. There are rules for violations like this. Hell, the 6 week suspension for a first offense was just passed what, not even two weeks ago?

    I picked him up in my biggest money league. Dropped Hakeem Nicks. I think Nicks is gonna do some things in Indy, but the chance of getting Gordon for a whole season is sploosh-worthy.

    I think Thomas is OK in PPR formats. He's one of the larger volume pass-catching RBs.
