It's come to my attention that residents of Cincinnati are upset that, in my 15 Transactions newsletter, I referred to Skyline Chili as "mid". And you know what? I don't regret saying that at all.

Please tell me I'm not alone that the main emotion I'm feeling while watching this game is anger?

I now know what it was like to watch a primetime game in 1978

Each Monday morning, I throw a fantasy football stat thread together. As a reminder, these are not takes. This is just data. More context is always important.

This is the Week 10 data dump.

I talked Rome Odunze, stashing defenses, and more on this week's mailbag episode. (And, per a friend, I said "bagel" really weird, so I'm sure the Internet won't roast me for it. I'm Western PA raised. Deal with it.) open.spotify.com/episode/7qbp...

I did a lot of research last summer on yards per route run at running back, and how poor previous-season YPRR rates tend to lead to underwhelming performances the following year among middle-round RBs.

Sent this email out in June, but this was 2025's list. Pretty wild.

Carson Wentz’s arm looks more and more bionic after each drive

I will say, the fact that this is the criticism that comes my way is honestly a good sign. I'll take it. But S'ing the B stays. bsky.app/profile/rich...
I know it’s a bit at this point but can you just say “crap the bed” moving forward instead of “s the b?” It’s so cringe…
