We have a strange keeper system so I won't go into all those specific details, but I have the opportunity to keep one of these 3 players. For Bucky and Odunze, I'm effectively keeping them at the equivalent of a last round pick. For Walker, he would be aligned with a early to mid-round pick (approximately round 6 of a 13-14 round draft).

Understanding only those facts, who would you choose?

Odunze is intriguing as he should be a fairly consistent WR2 / WR3 this year and I can build my draft around having that position on my roster locked down. Luther Burden is also iffy for week 1.

Bucky is talented but the Bucs seem reluctant to make him a true RB1, and the signing of Gainwell emphasizes that. I'm sure he'll have big weeks, but I am betting he also has multiple 'duds'.

Walker should be a lock to finish as a top 10 RB, but I'm wondering if that mid-round keeper equivalent is enough of a spread for his average draft position to justify keeping him...

Does it matter when you’re making money hand over fist. I think you’re missing the point.

ETA - in theory, winning only matters to the fans, and maybe the players/coaches whose job depends on it. Owners are making bank win or lose, and this data supports that fact.

Rent a bike and cycle across the Golden Gate Bridge to Sausalito, and then ride the ferry back (with your bike). Stop mid-way over the bridge and look around. It's an incredible way to see the city, the bay, and a unique little town on the north side with quaint bars/restaurants on the water. Depending on how long you want to linger in Sausalito, this could be anywhere from a 4 - 8 hour activity. It is 100% worth it.

I also love R&G Lounge in Chinatown. Pop in LiPo Lounge for a Mai Tai (it's an experience).

If you like Irish Coffee, go to The Buena Vista. They are world famous for them.

I typically stay in the Marriott Marquis and there's an unbelievable bar on the 48th (maybe?) floor there with panoramic views of the city and bay. Really cool to grab a drink about an hour before sunset. It'll get crowded so I usually go earlier. Another similar rooftop view spot is Top of the Mark. Also very renowned.

We also love Swan Oyster Depot in Nob Hill. Waterbar near the Ferry Building is top notch for dinner and bay / bridge views. If you're looking for ocean views go out to the west side to java Beach Cafe in Ocean Beach.

Have they released the episode 7 title yet? I can’t find it.

Do we get Gods Eye tonight or do yall think that’ll be episode 8?

Louis Roederer Cristal 2018. Dropped it in the fridge and planning to try it out on Friday.

I do have a good reason to pop it open and celebrate. Got promoted last week.

I was helping clean my father’s house and found a very expensive bottle of champagne that’s been sitting at room temperature for what I am guessing is probably 7-8 years. Is it still drinkable, and if so, will the taste be altered much?

I’ve done some simple google searches and getting info across the spectrum. Any wine experts have thoughts they care to share?

Are y’all bullish on NOW? Started a small position today with 30 shares at 103.80/share. Plan to buy more if it drifts lower in the coming days towards the 52 week low.

Software stocks I currently own are CRM, ADBE, and NOW.

We go to Breck every July for about 3 weeks to escape the Houston heat. Been doing this for 15+ years. The town is 9,100 feet above sea level so the early mornings and evenings are typically in the high 40's or low 50's. Perfect weather. Breck stays a little bit cooler in the middle of the summer than other towns at lower elevations (ex. Beaver Creek, Avon, Steamboat, etc.)

Ok, a little more context. In Houston, I’m seeing friends/acquaintances buy incredible homes in transitioning neighborhoods. Large, new homes with all the bells and whistles. My wife (no pics) is dead-set on limiting our search to just a couple neighborhoods which are admittedly out of our price range unless it’s a fixer upper or we sacrifice multiple ‘wants’.

So the conundrum is - get everything we want in the house in a transitioning neighborhood, or, get the exact location we want, and sacrifice multiple wants on the house itself.

I’ve seen Salida mentioned on here in several other threads about Colorado or mountain town vacations. Some of this has certainly peaked my interest. Our family spends a few weeks in Breckenridge every July, and I’m considering driving over to Salida for a couple of days/nights on the front end of this trip. Trying to figure out if it is worth it or not.

Where is the best location to stay? What are the must visit restaurants, bars, breweries? Any activities you would recommend with small children (ex. they’re too young to go rafting)?

Appreciate all the info and advice!

Anybody? Ever? I’d bet so
