As I write this the Rams are finalizing a trade for Miles Garret. That means, in no uncertain terms, the Giants have zero shot this year. They play the Rams, which we can add to the loss column, but they also play the Browns who did get Jared Verse out of the deal, and he’s a solid defender. So maybe they win that one, maybe the lose it still. The point is, there is a stacking of talent underway in the NFC West, and 3 of those teams could possibly make the playoffs. Rams, Seahawks, and Niners. If that happens it means there is one available wildcard and the Giants will need to overcome a loaded NFC North as well to make it. That or win the division, which is unlikely at this juncture. Better luck next year?

Each year I role out hope for the G-men, and each year they find a way to disappoint me more than I expected. I should give up, but I am a loyalist for some unknown reason. I keep going. They way I’ve kept going with the RPG writing in spite of not getting my long overdue paychecks for up to a year now. Well, at least I used to keep going. I am done with that gig once these projects are finished. I’m going to be the bigger person and not leave work undone.

Some Thoughts:

  1. Absolutely Bonkers Headline of the Day: “Patients find help with therapy donkeys at psychiatric hospital near Paris” They do what now?
  2. That was a wild segue into not writing RPG stuff, wasn’t it?
