Re-reading @davearchie's book this week and this quote from Bill Walsh stood out. Feels appropriate for the NFL and the world at large right now. Having the humility to recognize when your solutions no longer address the problems you face is important for staying ahead.

I don't get what Atlanta is doing. Per Blank's statement, they're having the HC and GM both report to a president of football, who will be the final decider. But that guy isn't hired yet and meanwhile they're going forward with interviews and two search firms? Why?

Trying to configure Multiplayer on @Minecraft for my son has been one of the most frustrating experiences I can remember. What lousy software

My @USPS package went out for delivery (in MA) on 11/23, but it was never delivered ... on 11/28, it was inexplicably sent to Bismarck, ND. No updates since then. No revised shipment date. Just "in transit to next facility" for a week.

People on both sides seem to be missing this: they're not done counting votes yet. States that are done counting (including all the swing states) have numbers greater than in 2020. The "missing" votes are all in CA, OR, WA, NY, etc. where it won't affect things.

Sales have been disappointing, but despite that, I don't feel like the effort was a failure. I did something, I saw it through, and I gave it my all. That's worth something, in and of itself. I feel like I learned things about myself and my capabilities.

So I guess the lesson there is, if you have an idea to do something and you have the opportunity to see it through, do it. Even if it "fails," that's OK. For me, at least, it didn't feel like failure. The experience made me mentally tougher and more capable than I was before.

I released The Inches We Need one year ago. It was a labor of love. I worked on it for a long time, put it down for a long time, and then picked it up during a period where I was unemployed and decided to finish it. (1/ )

It was never a book with a big enough appeal to be a commercial hit. Still, I hoped it would sell well - for obvious economic reasons, sure, but mostly so people would read it, to get the ideas out there, to change the way people around the NFL media talked about team-building.

I didn’t think “Sorceress” could be topped but o Lordy Ator 3/Iron Warrior is a delight

I can't believe they couldn't get the lead actor to return for Deathstalker II

Ever-expanding draft coverage seems to create this idea of the #NFLDraft as a focal point, something you can win. You can't win the draft; it is only a means to an end. It is only relevant when it translates to winning football games.
