First of all, I am not saying a debate winner should be determined by who gets rattled and who doesn't.... hence why I said it may be fair. I am sure you read that part of my post. But lots of other debates have allowed such behavior, so it is interesting to see that change right now. Although I will say, ability to remain unrattled is a quality I would like in my POTUS. I will also say that Trump is also easily rattled, but in a different sense. I guess the overall point is, these are new debate rules, right? Or at least some of them are new? It does not surprise me that the format and rules have been blatantly tailored to what Biden needs to be able to, hopefully, think and speak clearly. You're also saying Biden won the first debate... 4 years ago. As an independent, I can clearly see the cognitive difference in Biden 2020 to current day. Trump is not a lifer politician. So many other candidates are polished politicians because they have spent a majority of their life in the crooked world of politics. They know how to shake hands, kiss babies and we find out about lots of the shady shiit, after their terms are over. Trump is not that. Similar to how a Mark Cuban type would be if running for president. These guys have egos, just like Biden does, but they are business men first, not polished politicians for their parties. Trump is just as suitable to be POTUS as Biden (or as Hillary was). I actually agree he coms off as more of a clown, but you lose me at "incompetent" if you're comparing him to Joe. and no, it favors Biden because Trump is way more equipped to handle a crowd as well as quick witted responses, talking over / being talked over, being interrupted etc. Joe has long been at the point where he needs to be handled with kid gloves and this setup seems as manufactured for him as possible

it may be fair but the "rules" definitely favor Biden. Any reasonable person would admit that. Trump plays the bully, antagonizes, etc. Biden gets lost more often than not. It seems to have been specifically set up to be as mild mannered as possible which favors Biden, as Trump would easily rattle him and disconnect the fragile wire inside his head.

sounds like a big win for Dems. The mental instability of both men is quite different and I feel like Trump would demolish Biden if he were allowed to talk over / interrupt. Big advantage given to Brandon if he is allowed to ramble uninterrupted.

Ray can't read. He's old. Somehow he keeps skipping me in the even rounds but then holding me up for hours in the odd rounds last pick was 2AM my time. Just checking in now. -
For better or worse looks like my jobbers have me through to the weekend

I know Jerrah is going to give Zeke plenty of work. I am hopeful Dowdle can be a poor man's 2022 Pollard in the offense. -
the mocking station has a top with list of past june mock winners.

10.09 - QB Justin Herbert, LAC

ooof. That hurt as my first snipe. Was very excited to pick Lawrence there and explain how I view him as my QB1, until Daniels steals the job.... Lawrence was fantasy QB7 after week 10 last year. So I am settling for a guy everyone is off of because of his new coach / coordinator and his top target being gone. Perhaps I am reacting to being sniped but the guy has talent.

unless that was a proxy pick for Worms, which crossed my mind, but Ice didn't say anything.

@ICEMAN about 5 picks before it's on you

Being the last team to pick a QB, there is always the temptation to keep waiting. Jayden Daniels is someone I would love to pair as a drafted QB2 (possible QB1) after waiting a bit and picking a Jordan Love type (similar to the IBL year where a bunch of us waited and drafted Peyton Manning and RG3).... So I didn't feel comfortable waiting, just in case someone views him similarly. Ideally he would be my 2nd QB drafted and he may very well be my "backup" drafted before my technical starter
-
I was really only considering Williams when I took Pollard... but I assumed Singletary and Warren would be off the board shortly after. Not big on Singletary. I think he was just meh as part of a pretty good offense in 2023 with better QB play and better overall weapons in the receiving game than he will benefit from this season. But as an RB4, no argument here.
-
meh, its day 4 and we are in round 9. Been moving very fast. I may leave a list with Fumble, but I think we are good.

Pollard was a disappointment last season but the Titans gave him decent money (top 10 RB) so I'm thinking the volume will be there this year. I don't hate it as an RB3 at this stage.
