Wemby has been raw his rookie season. He is not the instant All Star level player ppl thought he would be. Chet is though.

as other’s have alluded to, Dame and Harden are obvious, but in all honesty someone that isn’t getting enough attention but needs to be is Anthony Davis. Imo this year is the year where he should be the MVP candidate over LeBron. Especially after the playoffs where he became the most important player for LA. He’s been awful in comparison though. I wish they’d remove him from top 75

One of Daron Payne or Jon Allen is probably on the PB this year

i worked at Deloitte for a bit. Deloitte internally has an entrepreneurial spirit. Essentially you can build a small business inside the company if you are incredibly talented at selling the work. People who become partners are responsible for interfacing with top level execs around the world. They win over the work of these execs and then hire internally talented people to complete the work. This then becomes their own internal organization with structure. A self contained business unit.

The employees are basically made to form connections and seek out work from day 1. People that need their skills reach out, but you have to sell yourself.

you don’t need to actually understand football to play certain positions. Just need to memorize routes and be athletic and have decent game feel

yes, i've been zoning out more than ever lately

a few reasons

first of all, there are some teams that have literally all time great, generational players and are being ruined by a combination of awful QB play and/or coaching.

Just look at the Raiders, Steelers (Tomlin is good still), Browns, Jets, Saints, Chargers, Titans, Colts, Patriots, Commanders, Bears, Packers, Falcons, Buccaneers.

Then there are teams that are obviously rebuilding in Carolina and Arizona.

So I've just now listed 16 teams. Half the teams in the NFL are god awful, borderline unwatchable due to a clear talent deficit in the most important places for these teams.

Then there's the Rams and Giants who obviously still have their stars but a bunch of scrubs so they are just a no man's land team that isn't really supposed to be good.

And now the Vikings will be joining the teams without a QB as Kirk went down.

Now we're up to 19 teams that are basically unwatchable due to awful QB or coaching or rebuilding.

So that leaves us with 13 teams (14 teams make the playoffs) that are playing competitive football right now.

Of those teams only a select few are actually competently good and consistent.

Miami, Buffalo, KC, Ravens, Bengals (assuming they keep their form), Philly, SF (assuming they fix their issues post bye week), Cowboys, Seahawks, Lions.

And then there's both Jacksonville and Houston which are too inconsistent for me to put up there but the Jags seem to be picking their pieces back together and might go on a run.

So 11 total teams are actually "good" teams and Houston is the only intriguing rebuilding team.

It really feels like the NFL is riding on an unbelievable amount of incompetence as of late.

keep your personal costs low and your savings high

never, ever think on a month to month basis about money.

in my head i think about the worst case scenario and think how long i could sustain myself (e.g. oh i have enough in between savings and investments that i could be unemployed for x amount of years with no income and live)

being a software engineer is a commodity. To make it you have to come up with a good business idea

The Dallas Mavericks traded for Davis Bertans who made 17 million to score 4.6 ppg in 10 mpg.

There are far worse contracts, but no one EVER mentions how useless the Bertans contract is for Dallas that is in win now mode

he’s born and bred New Yorker, he’s 100% playing for the Knicks or Nets

It’s 2016 Steph, shit was like watching a circus but it’s a professional athlete playing basketball. He was making shots from anywhere on the court and basically having his way on offense. Every shot that was a bad shot was going in.
