I’ve come across a lot of people in my decade in DFS.....few people are better than
@headchopper
. Easily one of the most humble dudes in a world where people love to brag about success. Congrats Chop....so excited for you and your family.
I know it’s cliché but hug your loved ones & don’t take time w/ them for granted. Found my dad has highly aggressive Leukemia & the future is uncertain. If praying is your thing we could use some, but mainly don’t put off time together. My heart hurts thinking of moments I did.
Like a true DFS Grinder
@stevietpfl
was putting in lineups right before lock. Congrats to him & Katy on a beautiful wedding and an exciting future together.
Rough day as the youngest (9) tested positive for COVID. She's going to be fine (very mild symptoms), but is heartbroken that she has to miss the first week and a half of school. Good news....other 3 vaxxed members of the house are all feeling fine.

Apparently the Chiefs garbage time returned blocked extra point swung $960,000 for “carney259” on Draftkings. Has to be Top 5 worst DFS beats I’ve ever seen. h/t
@2Hats1Mike
Honestly....If the
@PGATOUR
doesn't put
@ThePME
on their platform for some DK content....they are doing it all wrong. He's the face of fantasy golf & deserves to opportunity more than just about anyone.
Did something that I never really thought possible. My best ever was +1 for 9 holes and somehow finished -3. Hard to have many “athletic” achievements you’re proud of over 40 but this is one for me.

@CalSpears

@Cam_Mac_Millan
changed my life & countless others for the better because of their forward thinking vision around
@RotoGrinders
& DFS. Can’t thank them enough. I’m beyond excited for the opportunity to lead the company into this next chapter with
@BetterCollectiv
1/4 It's official - today
@BetterCollectiv
purchased our remaining 40% stake in RG.
@Cam_Mac_Millan
and I had an emotional day as we told the crew we're stepping back at year end. It's been the honor of my lifetime to help build this company and play a role in the story of DFS.
The original 2nd place finisher "spclk36" is now listed as having won the contest in the archived standings of the contest.
So glad I too moved up from "not cashing" to "still not cashing", myself.
NCAA has nobody to blame but themselves for this impending likeness mess. Instead of coming up with reasonable solutions, they ridiculously strong armed guys like the UCF kicker out of eligibility over a YouTube channel.
Big win for

at
@FSGAtweets
. Ultimate team award that spans tech, content and media. Thanks to all the incredible hardworking people on the site and the amazing DFS community for pushing us to keep innovating.
People mock this but when I took my first radio job I made about 22K. Why....bc I needed to start somewhere & get a foot in the door, learn and meet people in a field I was passionate about. If it’s not for you....that is fine, but full time gigs in fantasy are still rare.
All sites just need to adopt the
@PlayDraft
version of late swap. Super simple & only affects those with the players ruled out. Anything is better than a zero.
Once again
@notthefakeSVP
is so damn good at his job. Great quick recap of the poker scandal going on. Awesome to see
@Joeingram1
get the well deserved shout out.
You may have noticed a new look to
@RotoGrinders
this morning. After a year of work, we've finally released our site redesign, rebrand and new backend. Change is never easy, but after 14 years it was necessary and I couldn't be more pleased with the results
Find it interesting that before the season started people were freaking out over the new lowering the head rules....and I’m not sure I’ve seen that called once. This “no body weight tackles on the QB” wasn’t even on the radar & is completely ruining the game.
And so it begins: the runner-up in disputed DraftKings "Millionaire Maker" contest, spclk36, has retained prominent attorney
@amilst44
. Milstein has litigated on behalf of Allen Iverson, Carmelo Anthony, Maurice Clarett & others. More on collusion dispute:
This guy deserves a hell of a lot more credit/exposure than he’s getting now. Amazing story & now raising money for families of victims is spectacular.
Underrated storyline in NFL Draft is what do the Jags do with Yannick Ngakoue.....can't see him playing in Jacksonville next year, but is certainly worth draft capital for many teams in the league.

@ScottFish24
could have EASILY kept the status quo around
#SFB12
but instead likely 5x'd the work around organizing LIVE drafts around the country to bring greater community together around the Fish Bowl. Impressive work my friend.
Final day of an incredible vacation. Kauai feels like one very best places on earth to get away for a week. No DFS or gambling allowed here, so for someone who lives that life all day…every day,,,,it really delivered a much needed break.
Am I the only one who thinks a government official confirming we’ve found crashed UFO’s and aliens….should be a WAY bigger deal than anyone is making of it?
