Again. Coaching and organization. Does Brady have as many rings if he is in Green Bay instead of New England all of those years? I'm not saying Rodgers is 'greater' than Brady. But, I am saying he could have had the same level of impact on the Colts last year as Brady would have.

If Aaron Rodgers had signed with the Colts, fans could say the same thing. Rodgers, after all, was MVP last year. Again, I have no issue in saying that Brady's career is the GOAT. But, for most of his career, there has been one or more QBs that could be considered as good or better at any given moment.

Brady has had the greatest career. That cannot be disputed. But, he also benefitted greatly from the organizations he has played for. Pair a healthy Peyton in his prime with Belichik and he gets a few more rings as well. Put another way....Brady is the GOAT of all-time without, quite possibly, ever being the undisputed best at any single point and time in his career.

I finished 7th place in both leagues. Makes me the first loser, twice over. Now that I think of it, ex #3 always called me that.

Congratulations to all that made the playoffs. Despite falling short of the playoffs, I had a great time, and look forward to getting some revenge next season. For those others that did not make the playoffs, @tdhoosier, @mrflynn03, @KDB, @Steubenhoosier, @BeerBQ, @bluegrassIU; @Billingsley99, @PAHoosier, @Leathernecks, @ledies22 The plan is to have a couple of leagues again next year. If any, any/all of you are interested in playing again, I have some ideas on how to restructure the team distribution next year and going forward, I will be outline it in more detail after the playoffs. No commitments will be necessary until June or so, but wanted to let you know the plan is to do this again. Thanks again for playing.

Final regular season standings in KDB's league. @KoB2011overcame a league worst defense to claim the #1 seed in a 3- way tie for 1st place. @Hoosier51was the high scorer for the week with 214.52.

Final regular season standings in Kev's league. @Sagamorewins and takes advantage of a 5fouls loss to claim the last playoff spot. @ricoremained on fire and had the highest point total of the week with 180.42.

Middle Finger Emoji. Both hands,

If that's the order of finish (and, it looks like it will be), yes, that should be your matchup in Round 1.

Maybe so, but without Breida, it would have only been 213. Goes to show you how much difference one guy can make.

Headed to AZ specifically for the game? Or, just fortunate to be there for the holidays with the Colts playing there?

Turns out it did not matter. Rico got a gazillion points from Josh Allen, Melvin Gordon, and the Dallas defense. As a result, I'm going to be on the outside of the playoffs in both HSN leagues. Still frustrating that Kelce and Gibson were both so dang inconsistent this year.

Sigh. The @ricotrain is a runaway locomotive.

Antonio Gibson and Travis Kelce will never be on a 5fouls fantasy team again.

Compared to Archie, Crean was a Hall of Famer. Long term, though, I think Woodson will be better for the IU program than Crean.

I'm old enough to remember IU's last 3 championships. As crazy as it sounds, the WatShot will always be more memorable to me than Smart's shot to win the '87 Championship. The reason is that, in '87, IU was still consistently at the top of the college basketball world. The moment was incredibly exciting and brought the ultimate prize. But, it was almost expected because we were IU, and, even if had not gone in, there was always next year. Don't get me wrong, I went absolutely crazy when Smart's shot went in, and wouldn't trade the championship for anything. But, for pure, unexpected joy, the WatShot tops it,

Was in my car travelling to in-laws. Almost wrecked when Fisch said it went in.

I'm hurt. Genuinely hurt. Well, kind of. Sort of. Okay, I'm over it.

Man. That has to be tough.

You're just jealous your cousin broke it off with you so she could hook up with me.

When I first got interested in Indy car racing, I was a fan of Big Al and Bobby Unser. I never liked Little Al, and Bobby became less likeable to me as I got older, but I always liked Big Al.
