Breaking news out of Oakland tonight. The team and the city have come to an agreement to build s new stadium in order to keep the team in Oakland. The deal is tentaive at this point but all signs point to this agreement being settled in the next two months.
Damn, I was looking forward to the Raiders moving and becoming the Mexico City Chihuahuas.
Oh no, the dynasty will be continuing! In fact, for the last two weeks, I have been wanting to fire up the next game of the dynasty. But every time I get a chance, I either have to instead get stuff on the DVR watched since it's almost always full (usually 85-90% or higher), or I end up too tired after a day of work to bring myself around to spending 3 hours playing a game and typing it up.
In fact, outside of maybe an hour of Rocket League here or there, I have done almost zero gaming since around July 15th. I spent the weekend of the 18th in Cleveland for my best friend's engagement party (since I'm his best man) and since I've gotten back, I just really have not done any gaming. My free time lately has just been watching TV and reading, or else sleeping.
My goal is to try and have a game played and posted either later today or tomorrow, and, with luck, maybe finish out the season I'm in the middle of by August 15th.
Congrats on your SB win Jaymo!
Thanks buddy!
The borked confidence has a lot to do with the win. Most of my players were 99 confidence and it gives you a big advantage. Also, the injuries for the Saints really "hurt" them. Plus, why oh why ould the Saints only run the ball in the first half? Had they played the whole game like the last quarter things may have been dfferent.
