I should be able to get the Week 6 blog done tomorrow and hoping to stay on schedule now that I can go back to my normal 4 ten hour shifts. Football won't be much of a distraction either, as in NFL, fantasy season is over and idrc about week 17 results. MFN wise, I had a couple free agent 1 sims to worry about earlier this week but that's done now.

thanks Greg for all your efforts keeping this league active and intriguing. It sounds like you have been keeping a very busy schedule. We appreciate it!

You aren't the only one that hasn't had the time lately.....Ive been a complete no show in MFN for a few weeks and my post have dried up while I've slept through 2 1st round picks in 2 other leagues.

Honestly, the efforts you put into this league are top notch and nobody should be upset or critique any periods you fall behind. Overall, you have continued a great league since Tribewriter stepped down and its greatly appreciated

I hope you raked in some serious tips during the Xmas and NYE rushes.

I just checked. The Blazers are on pace to destroy my points per game allowed record (I think I still have that ... maybe it was beaten by someone after I took it from IoT).

Be prepared to grindhouse that team. :)

The record is still yours. You set it in 1990, allowing just 110 points, and in 1991 Portland also had the lowest PA in the league but nowhere close to 110 (177).

He is on pace to break the record, 104 to be exact. Not exactly destroying the record, but not giving up more than 10 points in any game is pretty impressive. I'll get an up close and personal look at Florida in a couple days, not looking forward to a likely L.

I did, thanks. Many customers tipped more than normal, some way more than normal. Of course there were some people who tipped nothing and people who complained about how long it took us to get there, not realizing we were the only place open that delivered. Thankfully, those people are few and far between in my delivery area, it's much worse at my brother's store that serves the UD campus. They also deliver downtown and the east side, which to put it kindly, have all of the common urban problems you can imagine.

It's not like my area is all Leave It To Beaver, except Oakwood. That city has the highest median income/real estate prices in our area, the rest of the communities are typical inner ring suburbs.

NYE was rather tame on the roads, thanks to Ohio's bar curfew of 10 pm. We were still busy, as a lot of people partied at home, but it was nice to not have the usual amount of driving stress. They saved that for tonight.

It's only been 1 extra day a week the last 2 weeks, but with the extra business, it takes longer for my old muscles to rebound from all of that getting in and out of the car 30-40 times a night. Thanks for the kind words.

Nobody has complained, but I like to explain why anyway. It's hard to get motivated for MFN anymore, most of us are sick to death of this current version. I'm probably close to dropping a couple/few teams.
