After talking with CU, we're going to put FAU on autopilot for this game and then move him to a different conference next year to allow him to avoid human-vs.-human games as much as he can. His schedule makes it hard for him to coordinate with other people.

Wanted to apologize for being the hold up.
My life has taken a weird turn and I wont bore everyone with the details...but suffice to say every free moment I have I am spending with the kids and its tougher and tougher to coordinate human-v-human games. I really appreciate Kodos letting me hang around because tbh this is the one enjoyment pastime I have left. Otherwise its all work. I need to figure out why that is. Need to see a shrink and pour the heart out on the couch, but who has time for that. Oh well....thanks again for the patience and sorry for the delay. |

No problem, and I hope your schedule lightens sometime soon. Life's too short to waste it working all the time. You gotta take time to stop and smell the Rose Bowl.

Tell her she should nap when you play. While you guys still have the ability to nap.

I'm really kind of in a midlife crisis mode. After selling my business I dont "have to work". But I was bored and got lazy and fat(ter) when I didnt work for 18 months and felt near depression as I didnt feel useful. So I went back to work helping a friend out in his business. Just to clear a jam for him...then starting a new division and running it for him and now ....back to working like I did when my name was on the door. He pays me well. Very well. No complaints there. But I dont know how to do anything half assed. I wish I could find a fun job and just work 40 hours a week. Maybe just work 60 hours a week. But thats not me. I am a (I thought) recovered addict. What I am coming to grips with is I simply moved my addiction from cocaine to work...if I am not working and solving problems and winning I sink into depression and despair. Way more than anyone probably cared to hear....but just a little insight into where my mind is. |

Welp, addiction to work is certainly better for you and more profitable than cocaine.
Maybe get addicted to the Ladder! |

Things have been hectic this week, I might need an extra day or two but will try my best to get the game in ASAP.
We are in week 37 and I've been on a tear putting stuff together for his room. |

The rocker is a lifesaver. Even if it is frustrating to get a baby to sleep, only to have it wake back up as you try to lie it down in the crib.

Nearly perfect 1st half in all phases plus very good but sloppy 2nd half equals USC demolishes SDSU. |

We did our thing as well, Texas was potent and I was sloppy, but we got it done.

Consider us all set at UTSA. I've probably got points left over but nobody worth spending them on.

Sorry this morning didn't work out. Between USC going late last night and stuff my wife needed me to do this morning, I was swamped at 8 AM. I could maybe play one night this week, but it depends upon how things go. Otherwise, I'm off for 6 weeks starting when Jacob is born

No problemo. Let me know if there is a night this week that works. Nights are tougher, but sometimes doable.

We had to spend part of the day in L&D yesterday but false alarm. It's been rough to find time because wife's BP has been up a bit during the end of this pregnancy and I'm watching her like a hawk when I'm not at work. If she falls asleep early, I can play tonight. Otherwise, it will be post Jacob because we are scheduled for induction at 6 AM Thursday morning and I'll hopefully fall asleep early Wednesday night

Pictures to come later but Jacob (named after my grandfather) was born 1:34 this morning. He is 7 lbs and 4.8 ounces and 20 inches long. Mom and baby both doing very well.

We're naming ours after one of my grandparents as well, EF!
Congratulations on the healthy baby and mom and the months of sleep deprivation likely to follow!

Hey guys.
I think I need to withdraw from the league. Life is hectic right now and not sure when it will lighten up. I will continue to be a drag on everyone else and thats not fair. Its been fun. |

EF and Julio. Do you want to go to a ten-team round-robin format with all 3 of us in the same conference? That way, Julio gets to play both of us each season, and EF keeps the same number of human games.
