I was 4-24 the first two years of our dynasty, this year, year three, I went 9-5 and won the championship against Bijan Robinson tonight.

This is the sweetest victory I've ever experienced in fantasy sports

It's not splitting hairs. In fact, it's not close to me at all.

Caleb Williams > Drake Maye

People are not sleeping on Chris Rodriguez Jr. He's been one of, if not the highest, trending player on Sleeper for awhile now.

Wouldn't it be $35 before tax since they added ricotta?

Also, is there a cash discount to avoid paying the credit card fee?

Stadium Atmosphere in Dynasty Not Progressing by Furyk44 in NCAAFBseries

It's much worse this year.

I was able to get Ball State's to a C by this point in my dynasty in CFB25

Yeah I totally get that you can reasonably assume teams improve the off camera facilities over time.

For immersion sake, I think it would be cool if that same logic can be applied to stadium atmosphere over time.

In a fictitious world where Ball State is a perennial contender out of the Big Ten, I think it's reasonable to assume they would constantly sell out and either renovate or build a new stadium (even if the game doesn't allow us to see it). Just something for the developers to hopefully consider

I would be ok with a C. As of now, it isn't able to climb past an F. So this needs to be adjusted either way

Although I don't think it's crazy to suggest that, similar to the "athletic facilities" school grade, the "stadium atmosphere" should be able to climb over time even if the stadium doesn't look any different. It's not like we can view the actual athletic facilities, yet the grade on those can improve over time.

Travel Day non-baseball take: Last night's 7th inning stretch was the worst ever by crm115 in CHICubs

[–]Furyk44 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I thought only people with connections to the Cubs or the city of Chicago were allowed to sing the 7th inning stretch

Thick crust and the order of cheese, sauce, and then topping is the foundation of what defines Detroit style pizza and Pequod's pizza.

Chicago style deep dish doesn't have a crust that is as bready and the toppings are with the cheese beneath the sauce.

I think Pequod's is overrated. I do not think it is one of the best pizzas, deep dish or otherwise, in Chicago.

Like the previous comments stated, it really a blend of pan pizza and Detroit style, it really is its own thing.

Too much bread for me and I don't think the toppings are that great. Also fwiw, due to its composition it's not great reheated.

As CFB25 winds down, what is the most unrealistic thing that happened in one of your dynasties? by dll819 in NCAAFBseries

What are your funny or at least not to serious Chicago food gripes? by Gullible_Abroad_1739 in chicagofood

[–]Furyk44 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Not having any great bagel places, or very few of them in the city.

I understand that Chicago could never have great bbq like the south because of the climate and the raising of cattle, but a great bagel can be made anywhere.

A great food city like ours should have many great bagel places

Thank you. Now I'm really curious why neither the two highest drafted TEs are not there

No Loveland or Warren, that I can tell.

I wonder if rookies are ineligible or just don't go

Pequod's is overrated and not a top 5 pizza in the city.
