the GM of the Los Angeles Rams, which just might be the most difficult NFL franchise to rebuild. Just two years ago, the Rams won a Super Bowl, but this current Rams team looks like they are in a lot of trouble. We have the worst overall in the league, but we're not the Texans. We are not loaded with young talent. In fact, we have almost no developing players on this team. But let's try and start with the positives. We have young Cam Acres at running back. He's your average running back right now with good acceleration. He definitely could progress. And our second round draft pick this year was Steve Avila, rookie guard. So in a couple years he could be good. You can't talk about the Rams without talking about Cooper Cup. The triple crown winner himself. He's X-Factor. He's 97 overall, but he's also 30 years old. So he's not getting any better. Things get even worse for the Rams when you go to defense. Offense was already looking a little sparse. Donald is really the only usable guy on this defense. Now granted, that's saying a lot. Aaron Donald is the best edge rusher in the entire game, but he's 32. Guys start retiring around 30-31. Aaron Donald's already passed that threshold. And in real life, he almost retired this year. Obviously he has returned for this year. I'm sure he'll continue to be a threat because he's incredible. But the Rams are so depleted that we almost have to get some capital out of either Aaron Donald or Cooper Cup. Feels horrible saying that out loud. And if things weren't bad enough, you'll realize just how much money we are paying to players that aren't improving. Aaron Donald makes sense. 99 overall. Cooper Cup makes sense. 97 overall. Matthew Stafford. 75 overall. 34 years old. Has an $183 million contract. I got a Stafford poster right there. And I know that this rebuild is not gonna work with Stafford at QB. He's only gonna get worse every year. Higbee's getting paid. I don't hate that. 72 overall. Joseph Noteboo. He's our sixth highest player. That is not okay. Havenstein's a vet, but he's really good. So we're definitely gonna hang on to him. Brian Allen's not getting any better. He's a 73 overall. I think best case scenario we can trade Stafford and Aaron Donald in a massive bundle and get a lot of draft picks back and fully rebuild this unit. Luckily though, the Los Angeles Rams have an ace up their sleeve. And that ace is the freshman killer. Newly 18-year-old Georgia freshman girls. Cower in fear of Stetson Bennett. That doesn't sound good when I say it like that, but you know what I mean. So the Rams did draft Stetson Bennett. Normal dev. 62 overall. And he may be a rookie, but he's 25. He's not a 21-year-old rookie. Stetson Bennett will likely be our quarterback for this year. The odds that he progress as well I think are crazy low. We have a depleted offensive line, an okay tight end, a very good wide receiver one, but then a horrible quarterback. This is just not a recipe for success. It's a recipe for tanking, which is technically illegal. If Stetson Bennett's our only quarterback, I think we're gonna tank. And that's actually a good thing for us because this is the very start of our rebuild year. There's just no way to retain all these players and have success. Now truly this is because they won that Super Bowl. They sold out to win that Super Bowl and this is the aftermath. Bill Belichick said the same thing after the Patriots won all those Super Bowls. He's like, look man, you sell out to win a Super Bowl. It's gonna be tough sledding after that sometimes. I have cooked up a trade. It's with the New England Patriots. They would get Aaron Donald and Matthew Stafford. I want the round one, round two, round three of this year and round one and round two of next year. I don't expect to take this, but we can work our way back. It's tough to find a team that has the cap space to take both of these guys and a team that actually would want Stafford. I think New England is a good fit for him though. A veteran leader for Mac Jones who's been mid and I think every team wants Aaron Donald. So, but you're only getting him for about two years before he retires. So is it fleece season? Let's try this out. See how it goes. What?  I thought I was lowballing. You guys told me to lowball the CPU and then work your way back. I thought this was an aggressive lowball. Aaron Donald's got two years left and they just gave up two firsts, two seconds, whatever. Hey listen, I'm so excited to get all that, but damn I got some learning to do on these rebuilds. Well, maybe we could have gotten a little bit more out of that, but still we just acquired so much. We're kind of like the Oklahoma City Thunder of the NFL. Next thing we got to do is set our scouts for the draft. What position do we want to draft? I honest to God, I think we're gonna have to draft quarterback. I feel bad for Stetson Bennett, but there's just no way. If we draft a rookie quarterback, they're gonna come out at about a 75-ish overall and Stardev. So Stetson Bennett would need plus 13 overall and Stardev to even match a rookie. So I think we're just tanking this season. I think camp acres can develop well, Von Jefferson can develop well, and Cooper Cup will be solid for another two years. Wouldn't be the worst idea to pick up a wide receiver, but probably not the first round, maybe a second or third round guy. We definitely need O-line. We need a tackle. We need interior O-line. We're eventually gonna need a right tackle. So we definitely couldn't go wrong drafting any guard or tackle. Tight end. We should be good for a while. I like Tyler Higbee. He's young enough. And on defense, keep in mind we have a ton of cap room now, so we don't have to draft every position. We can sign free agents in a lot of positions, and I usually do like signing linebacker or D-line free agents. And then John Johnson and Jordan Fuller actually really solid safeties. We'll need some corner help, too. It's gonna depend on how the draft falls to us, but the good news is we could scout any defensive position. We'd be making a good call. Byron Young. We actually did just draft this guy right here. He's a 70 overall rookie.  Byron Young is 92 speed, 94 Excel. But once again, the Rams have a fetish with 25-year-olds out of college because he is 25. The reason I make such a big point of that is 21-year-olds progress so much faster than 25-year-olds, even if they're both rookies. We are officially the worst team in the league, but we are loaded up with draft picks. It's gonna be a losing year for Sean McVeigh. We can say that much. Our three-star scout is Keith Rayner. His expertise is offensive tackles and interior offensive line. It's actually perfect, man. That's our guy. Offensive line in NFL is crazy expensive. You gotta pay tackles so much, and it's very hard to find really good free agents. So it's best if we draft these guys, keep them on those rookie deals, and just let them develop. And then our two-star scout is Frankie Sanders for D-Ends and D-Tackles. We just traded away the best D-End in football. We now have all normal dev on the D-Line. So I really like this, actually. The only thing I still need to scout is quarterbacks, and I don't have a single scout who does quarterbacks at all. There's almost a guaranteed chance we're gonna have a top five pick. And looking at the prospects, Frank Morgan on a Cincinnati. That's number one. Number four is Amir Anthony. Number six is Tremaine Branch. Seven is Will Porter. Eight is Humphrey's Mike Almond. This is a deep QB class. We might have to get a three-star QB scout, actually. This is too important of a position. As much as I want interior O-line, I need a QB scout. So Keith Rainer, I'm so sorry.  You did great work, though. We appreciate you. So Wesley Hale, expertise QB, but second expertise is tight end. That's not us. Kenny Ramsey would do safeties. No, we don't need safeties either. I hope there's one more for quarterbacks at least. If we go primary quarterbacks, we're just getting clapped on the secondary. I am gonna go with Wesley Hale. It's a bummer that that second expertise is not something we need. But I do know for a fact that we need a quarterback so bad on this team. And this is a deep quarterback class. We just have to take him. Wesley Hale be assigned national. I just need as much info as we can on QBs. But since we're doing that, next most important to me after quarterback is actually O-line.  And I'm gonna go pick up a two-star scout and I'll pick up a two-star scout who can do interior offensive line and hopefully tackles as well. Sheila Thornton?  I'm picking up the 300-pound heifer that I wish the scouts had a picture, man. Dude, Sheila's got that 15% boost on O- tackle and interior O-line. Let's go. All right. Our scouts are in place to find us a generational quarterback.  And Steve Avila has an upgrade. This might be one of the only guys on this entire roster who's actually gonna develop. I'm excited to give him an upgrade.  Five and 12 is shocking. Oh my God. Stetson Bennett had the 10th most passing yards in the league. Keep in mind, I did not adjust playbooks. I assume he had to throw a lot because we were always losing, but damn, damn, he played really well. Shit, I thought I was gonna draft a QB. So, Stetson Bennett did go. He went from a 62 overall to a 68 overall, but his dev trade didn't upgrade, so I still can't justify keeping him. I'm sorry, Stetson. I know you guys are probably excited to see a Stetson Bennett run, but it just isn't in the cards. Not if we actually want to win a Super Bowl. Cooper Cup led the entire NFL in receiving yards. I assume that's what happens when you're literally the only good player on your team. Hey, great job. Second was Jefferson, Cedia, Mari Cooper, Devonta, Smith and Travis Kelsey. DeMarcus Robinson was solid two, Von Jefferson, Hapy didn't do all too much. Only one touchdown on the whole season while Cooper Cup had 22. 100 yards per game. Oh my God. He probably triple crowned again, didn't he? He might have triple crowned again. Cam Acre has eclipsed a thousand rushing yards. Nice work. Stetson Bennett went for 274. Cooper Cup won the triple crown again by a migal. 22 touchdowns Cooper Cup averaging more than a touchdown a game. Next closest is Devonta Smith, Michael Gallup, CD lamp. Damn Cowboys though.  Look at his rack yard. He must have won an award, right? Did he win a yearly award? Dude, that's a crime. He wins the triple crown and he's not even in the MVP race at all. Cooper Cup does win offensive player the year though. Stetson Bennett gets dangerously close to winning offensive. Bro, if he won offensive rookie of the year, he would have gone to start that sixth and best QB. I don't know how he did so good in the sim. Best wide receiver, Cooper Cup. It makes me want to stick with Stetson Bennett. It really does. But he's already 26. I can't the 2023 Super Bowl the Raiders beat the Eagles Super MVP is Jimmy Garoppolo. If Stetson Bennett got offensive rookie of the year, we we could have ran with him as our QB but now he's a 68 overall 26 year old with normal Dev. I just can't heading into the offseason here though. Shockingly, we're actually the fourth worst team. The commanders went two and 15 just super weird to me. That was a good team. Broncos went four and 13. Dolphins went four and 13 and then it's the Rams. So our draft pick is pick four and we also need to see where the Patriots landed and I'm hoping oh no damn Patriots went 10 and seven. So the picks we got from the Patriots at least this year aren't as strong as we were hoping we'll make what we can out of them because honestly, Aaron Donald wasn't going to change that much for us this year. I still think that our trade was the correct call. About some movement on the draft boards. I have 100% completion on the quarterbacks. So it's amazing. I'm going to know exactly who I'm taking and since we're pick four, if the board went exactly like this, we could take Frank Morgan, Amir Anthony or Noah Humphries and I think I'm leaning towards Frank Morgan out of Cincinnati. He was previously projected to be the round one pick one. He has since fallen. But take a look at this. A medium, A short, A under pressure, B deep, beautiful spiral and all his passes plays well within and outside of the pocket and quick compact throwing motion. I want to know physicals, his throw power is great to elite speed is solid good jumping doesn't matter agility doesn't matter acceleration doesn't matter change your direction doesn't matter. He has a awareness actually really good for a quarterback at least overall wise it is B play action. Is there anything here that's bad deep medium short throw on the run B is actually really good A under pressure. This guy's a dog.  We just have to hope that he falls.  If we're not taking Frank Morgan, we're taking Amir Anthony Amir Anthony is very, very similar. His medium accuracy is a C though, but as deep as an A. Now we can take a look at free agency. Free agency is awesome for us this year. We have tons of cap and literally every position on our team could use a player. So I'm just going to look for the best available younger guys Christian Wilkins. He wants a lot of money. 87 overall is 28. My two favorite targets right now are LaVisca Chanel and Kenneth Murray. So Kenneth Murray 25 years old star. He doesn't actually expect that much and he's already kind of interested in our team. I would love to pick him up. This would be a huge addition to those linebackers. I'm going to give him a player friendly four year deal. I want to hang on to him for a long time. Four years down the road. I'm hoping in that third or fourth year we can win a Super Bowl. Yeah, we want him for four years. This seems to be a strong deal. I'm going to give him. I'm going to juice it just a little bit and hey, we should get Kenneth Murray with that. LaVisca Chanel too. I've always liked LaVisca Chanel as a wide receiver. He's 25 and he's not asking for too much either. Make sure you're going to bring his salary down a little bit. I don't really care if LaVisca Chanel doesn't take this. If he doesn't want it, that's okay. Yeah, the offer strength is 50-50. If he takes it sweet, if he doesn't, hold on. We can pick up Tyler Viedes for a minor center upgrade. This will be nice because we don't have to draft a center and Bryce Hall. Oh my God. Bryce Hall is incredibly interested in playing for us and he developed over that year into Superstar so we could pick up a Superstar DB right now. We have no DBs. I want him for four years. I want everybody for four years. I'm just going to take his salaries and such down because he's so interested in this team. I think he's just going to come anyway. That offer strength ain't great. Let's not be cheap. We need our boy. We need our boy. Let's let's let's pay him the big bucks. There we go. And I'm good with those signings. This isn't our year to fully unload our cap anyway. We still got a lot but hopefully if all those guys sign, we're already going to be in a much better position. We draft our rookies. We have another solid year and then next year we can really start to unload. Here's the new look Los Angeles Rams. So Avila Unlocked Star Bev. Viedes does sign with us. LaVisca Chanel does sign with us. So now it's Van Jefferson, LaVisca Chanel, Cooper Cup. On defense, we do get Kenneth Murray but Bryce Hall has not signed with us. Did he sign somewhere else or is he still thinking? Bryce Hall signs with the Jacksonville Jaguars. I offered him more. I offered him four years, 12 million. He takes a three year nine million.  I guess. Okay. Well, it's back to the drawing board for us then. I still need a DB. I really want a DB and free agency and if I can't get Bryce Hall, I guess I'm going to settle for Levi Wallace. Minor upgrade was really hoping to get Bryce Hall. Oh, I should have gone bigger on Bryce Hall. I'm such a fucking. I'm so mad we didn't get Bryce Hall. That would have been such a good signing. It's time for the NFL draft. I know exactly who I'm looking for and it's my Cincinnati quarterback. I just got to hope that he actually falls to me. Frank Morgan, you will be a Los Angeles Rams. Washington commanders are on the clock. Nobody tape Frank Morgan. It will be just fine. They take Tyrone Blackburn left tackle. So, no quarterback. Broncos also needed quarterback. Russell's got to be so old. Don't take Frank Morgan. Oh my god. You caught. Oh, he was projected fourth and I'm fourth. They know what I know. Frank Morgan goes to the Denver Broncos. Dominic Morgan, his uh his black brother goes to the Dolphins and it's our pick. Shit. Luckily, we're 100% on all the quarterbacks here. There's Tremaine Branch, Noah Humphries, Amir Anthony, and Mike Allman. Now, the good news is we know that Tremaine Branch is a bust thanks to Scouting. He was projected top five but he's around three four talent. Same with Noah Humphries. So, I'm skipping over both of these guys. Amir Anthony or Mike Allman. Mike Allman is a strong arm from Kansas State. Amir Anthony is an improviser from Fresno State with A deep, A short, A under pressure, and C medium I think Amir Anthony is our guy. I just I know he's not as good as Frank Morgan. Frank Morgan had A and everything.  Six five, two thirty-four. His acceleration is elite. His change of direction is elite. We got a little scrambler QB. 20 yards shot. He's fast. This boy's fast. Wait a minute. All right. So, we're getting a little more uh a little more athleticism out of this. A little less grit, a little more athleticism. We're drafting Amir Anthony at pick four.  Amir Anthony. Hidden dev. 82 speed. 94. Oh my god. He's literally a running back. This guy is a running back. 90 throw power. 90 excel. 94 change direction. 82 speed. Well, I have to see about his throw stats in his overall but um it's a big upgrade on Stetson Bennett. It has to be. If he's in the 70s and he's star, it's a big upgrade. All right. We'll skip ahead to our next pick which is round one pick 17. Let's see what talent is available. Low key. I could have taken a different position because Mike Allman is still available here. There's a few wide receivers but I didn't do scouting on wide receivers and quite frankly, Cooper Cup is still amazing. We also signed LaVisca Chanel. So, I don't think we go wide receiver here. We obviously don't go cornerback. There's Deandre Curry. A right tackle. Pass block is a C. Run blocks an A. Dude, look at this dude. Karen Jefferson. A awareness. A impact block. A pass block. A to C run block. An agile right tackle. So, I'd probably move him to left tackle and then we could offload Joseph Noteboom who is sucking up a ton of cap space right now. JD Driver's got some really nice stats too. I think we go Karen Jefferson here. Wow, look at the A's for Karen Jefferson. My pick's going to be Karen Jefferson, the 21 year old out of Clemson. Love that he's 21 too. I'll move him to left tackle. He's got 84 excel as a big man. Speed and strength. Strength is actually just pretty damn good. 84 strength. Right out the gates. Next pick is round two pick four. We've got tackle. We've got quarterback. If there's some solid defensive potential here, I'm going to take it. This is a deep, deep quarterback class. Look at this. Humphries and Chip Cody. Elijah Barton looked to just like my boy. All the talent that's available is kind of in positions I don't need right now. Although take a look at Blake Rosenberg out of UCLA. A awareness. A impact. A pass. His run block is trash though. I almost want to take Rosenberg here and move one of my tackles to guard. He's got good stats. I'm going to take another offensive lineman. I'm going to take Blake Rosenberg here. I'm going to move somebody to guard. There's just not the defensive talent that I need at this spot here. Ooh, much better. Dude, his bench press was so low. I thought his strength was going to be trash. Rosenberg's got 86 strength. He is normal Dev though, so we didn't get a hidden Dev guy there. We'll have to see at the end of the draft if we're whiffing or not. But I already like our start here. I need defense at this next pick though. Dude, there's this wide receiver who had a 42.2 inch vertical. He has an F deep route running. How did you become a wide receiver with F deep route running? I almost want to take a shot on him like a little DK Metcalf, but I need defense. I'm going to take left end Alonzo Harris out of Oregon State. Oh dude, it just lagged and it gave me George Harris and it gave me that receiver I was making fun of. You know what? I'm excited to see what he's made of man. I actually am. Now our first pick the third round. Hopefully there's a defensive player still available here. Alonzo Harris is still available. It's just perfect. I was just about to pick him up before. So this works out great. Deal! That is a left end with 65 speed. Oh my god. He has 89 strength, 84 excel. You know what that might be? That might be a detackle. We may move him to detack.  We're going to advance to the end of the draft here and we'll see just how well we did. Draft recap! This is the moment of truth. Where did we whiff? Where did we hit? Come on. I need a 75 plus quarterback. Amir Anthony? Amir Anthony? 75. Okay. That's an amazing start. Amazing start with Amir Anthony. An 82 speed 90 excel quarterback. Round one pick four starts at a 75 overall. Throw accuracies? Let me see. 86 short, 74 mid, 81 deep. Okay. He's a stud man. I don't know if you guys do this, but I want to check his dev trait because when I sim, sometimes I don't know if they unlocked star, but then got upgraded to superstar, you know, from a breakout or if they actually came with it. So I want to know is Amir Anthony?  All right, we'll take it though. 74 of us. I was hoping he'd be a superstar.  Both are 21 years old. Jefferson was hidden dev though. So he's probably star. Rosenberg was normal. George Harrison is a 73 overall with 89 speed, 88 excel. What's your jumping? I just want to know. The jumping is 96. I absolutely whipped on our boy Alonzo. Alonzo Harris is a 64 overall. That was the worst pick of the draft, but damn! The CPU took Skyler Reading outside linebacker out of USC who's a 76 overall right outside linebacker with 87 speed. Spectacular pick. They got Derek Thomas right guard who's a 73 overall. We got a pretty mid corner and we end with a trash linebacker. All in all, in actually a really solid draft, we added 73, 76, 73, 74, 74, 75. One major whip was Alonzo Harris. That's all on me. I should have looked deeper at him. I would have seen that speed if I had looked at 40 yard dash and all that. So I went a little too fast there and that's on me. First thing I'm going to do is move Karen Johnson to right guard. I'm hoping he doesn't take an overall decrease for this, but he was a 74 overall at right tack. At right guard, Karen Johnson is a 75, technically 76 with morale. And in just one season, it may not be glorious, but the Los Angeles Rams have fully revamped the offensive line. Avila's developing Heaven's Thieves Arvet, Jefferson in the draft, Be It As in Free Agency, and Rosenberg in the draft. That's amazing. I'm also going to release Joseph Noteboom. I've freed 10 in Capspace, but I incurred a penalty of 10. So I think that did nothing. To be honest with you guys, this is my third rebuild ever and I'm not entirely sure what that did, but I know that we don't need him anymore. Amir Anthony is coming along nicely up to a 77 overall already. It was the right choice. He's star dev. He's already eight overalls up on Stetson Bennett. We had to bring Amir Anthony in. Salonzo Harris like significantly better at detackle, because he's a 64 overall right now.  I'm moving him to detackle. I wonder if that will actually even help this guy. He does get an overall boost, but not by much. That's just a whiff. Gotta take the L on that one. Levi Wallace is looking nice. John Johnson is looking nice. Jordan Fuller did regress to normal dev. Really wish we got Bryce Hall. Damn. So my D-line is going to need some work in the future, but Kenneth Murray a great free agent signing and ready. Dude, the rookie 76 overall outside linebacker, Skyler Redding, at USC. Same face scan as Stetson Bennett. 87 speed, 87 exile, 87 tackle. Skyler Redding's a dog. This is probably super bold, but I know the slot wide receiver ends up getting a ton of touches. I'm gonna move our rookie Harrison to our slot wide receiver.  I mean, this guy actually could be a demon wide receiver.   He has 96 jumping, and he's six foot two. I kind of want him to be really good. He's shaping up to be a weird rebuild, but I think I'm most proud of our offensive line to make sure Sean McVate doesn't get fired. I'm gonna shoot for four wins. Best case scenario is offensive rookie. The year goes to Amir Anthony and season two shapes up just like season one, five and 12. I can't say I'm upset at all by that. We're gonna have a very similar draft pick. Hopefully we can either get some elite talent for our rookie QB or maybe an elite defensive lineman standings around the league. The Lions were the worst team in the league and the Raiders, the Falcons, the Jets, the commanders and then the Rams. So we're going to end up here with the sixth pick. MVP of the league goes to Dak. Defensive player of the year. Oh no. Defensive player of the year goes to Aaron Donnell, who I traded to the Patriots. Oh no. The big question here is offensive rookie of the year. What? What? Oh my god, it went to George Harrison. Oh my god. Wait, so Amir Anthony gets third. Mike Allman. The late pick quarterback gets second. Where's Frank Morgan? Oh my god. They did nothing with Frank Morgan. That makes me so mad. You took Frank Morgan over me. You did nothing with him. Defensive rookie of the year doesn't look like we have anybody on here. No shocker there. Actually no. Kyler Redding's eighth and Sweeney, that DB ends up tenth. Not bad. George Harrison, fifth and best wide receiver voting. That is so funny. Byron Young, our very young linebacker gets fourth for best lineback and Levi Wallace is second and best DB. So a nice year for Levi Wallace. Five and twelve again. Shit. So now I got to see our progression for our guys. So I kind of know what happened. We gave George Harrison so many reps, so many looks, but obviously he couldn't do as much with them as Cooper Cupp would have. So even though he's in that slot, he eclipses a thousand yards, but his average yards per game was 67.8 last year. Cooper Cupp, even with Stetson Bennett, was a hundred. Cupp still was amazing with the touches. He did get, but honestly, we progressed George Harrison really well. So that's probably the move. Chenal had 656, Higby 573, K-makers in receiving. Von Deversen did almost nothing. K-makers another a thousand yards, season five touchdowns. Amir Anthony, almost a hundred carries, 400 yards, three touchdowns. Nice work. Passing Amir Anthony, 3678 yards, 24 touchdowns, 13 interceptions. Stetson Bennett kind of played better than him last year, but keep in mind, Cooper Cupp was wide receiver one last year. I put in George Harrison to develop them both. That might have been a bad call. Maybe I should have kept Cooper Cupp in, so Amir Anthony was always throwing to the best guy. Not sure if I made the right call, but we did go five and 12. If Cooper Cupp was one, we might have one more game, so I almost, I'm almost tanked more properly this way. Amir Anthony is a 79 overall. K-makers is progressing very well. Jefferson is progressing well at guard. Harrison technically hasn't won offensive rookie the year yet, so he didn't get a dev trade upgrade, but he's rocking a 75 overall, and no dev trade adjustments on defense. Really hoping Skyler Redding can get star. 2024 season ends with the Kansas City Chiefs winning a Super Bowl. Mahomes is MVP, and damn, you see this a lot. Cowboys versus Chiefs, and the offensive rookie of the year. Oh my God, I was only looking on the NFC side. Of course, I didn't see Frank Morgan. Frank Morgan wins offensive rookie of the year with the Broncos. Shit, I always forget that those are bracketed by, oh my God, George Harrison does not get offensive rookie of the year. It does go to Frank Morgan, who the Broncos sniped from me. Oh, I should have traded up. Oh, there's a lot of regret in this rebuild right now. All right, hey, there's nothing we can do about it right now. It's time to head into free agency. Hey, it's time to reset players that we need and head into free agency. When I look at free agents, there's not a lot of people I want. The best free agent is Joe Burrow, but I'm not going for that. Eric Armsteads available. My D-line is depleted, and when I looked at the draft class, there's not a lot of good detackles. At least not anybody that's going to fall to me. So let's sign Eric Armstead to a two-year deal, beef up our D-line. We're going to pay a lot of money for this year. I think it's important that our D-line isn't atrocious. We want to actually start winning some games. I'm going to pick up a kicker too. I'm going to pick up Jake Elliott. My current kicker is a 69 overall. So why not give Jake Elliott a three-year deal? We got some free agency space for it. I have literally 130 million in cap room though. I just, there's nobody that I want. I don't want Burrow. Hassan Reddick? Hassan Reddick would actually be pretty dope. We would have Redding, Hassan Reddick, and Kenneth Murray. That's a really good backer court. Hassan Reddick has no interest in my team. But what if we gave him a very friendly deal? Giving Hassan Reddick the 30-year-old Hassan Reddick a six-year deal. I'm going to give Hassan Reddick a massive offer. We have so much cap room. It's yellow and offer strength. I don't know if he takes that, but we have so many young guys on this team that we actually have the cap space to do some shit like that. I don't think we win too big this year anyway. Now here's my strategy for the draft. So in the draft we do have round one pick six, but I think my favorite prospect is the 14th cornerback. I want to get a db and a d-lineman. There are no good d-lineman in the first round, sadly. But look at this dude, okay? This is a six foot three corner. A catching B man, B press, B zone. That doesn't look too crazy. He's 21 years old, he's 209. So that is a big, heavy corner. His 40-yard dash was a 429. His speed is elite. His agility is elite and he's six foot three. So I'm thinking he has at least, at least 93 speed, 94 speed. His vert's a 38. His broad jump, 10-5.  So in the first round it should be very realistic for me to pick Kyle Townsup. And then in the second round I'm just looking for the best d-lineman available. There's Rodney White at the top. There's Ben Hale. There's Gabe Hooker and Jamison Finney. So whichever one of those guys is available, we'll take a look at them. But it'll be a defensive draft for us for sure. Jamal Jackson goes to the commanders round one pick six. Please tell me nobody's sharked my boy. There's absolutely no way somebody took him. Dude, I'm getting robbed. Luckily there is a good second option. Jamarcus broils, but he also is the fastest 40-yard dash DB. Technically after Kyle Towns he's now the fastest. He has elite speed still. I really dude oh my god I'm getting sniped by the CPU.  Wait a minute. This is a great second option. Jamarcus broils 6'3". He's a little less heavy. He's 22. Towns is probably better. But Jamarcus broils I'll take here. Jamarcus broils with 96 speed. Oh my god a 96 speed 6'3". Bro I was hoping Towns would be 93. All right boys. Hey it worked out. Worked out just fine. 96 speed 90 excel. Monster DB in the first round.   Dude what do we think about this tight end? I have round one pick 11 right now. We do have Higbee but he just looks too good to pass up. Elite strength, elite speed, elite agility. We could take him and we could trade Tyler Higbee for potentially more draft capital in the next draft. Philip McCauley. It's not the position we need. I think I'm gonna take McCauley here and maybe maybe get a tackle later. I'm taking him. I want to see what this dude's all about.   And he's big man. He's 6'6". I probably should have gone with a tackle there but I just wanted to get weird with it in the draft you know. He just looked too good. Now I said I want D line. Johnny Maro is an elite speed D tackle. There's no left or right ends that I can really get. I was unable to get any of these guys that I wanted in the second round. They got taken but Maro is fast. I might be able to move him to an edge rusher. Oh hidden dev. Hidden dev in the second round. 79 speed, 78 excel, 86 strength. He could get moved to an edge rusher. No question about it. And he's hidden dev. Johnny Maro might have had a real good pick right there. I think I whipped a little bit on Philip McCauley so we kind of needed that get back right there. And thanks to the Patriots we have another good pick here. This is all the capital from Aaron Donald. So I'm hoping we can turn it into some serious stuff here. Julius Gandy has dropped on a lot of people's boards. He does not look good. His impact block is nice. Awareness pass and run are bad. I don't really need anything else. I do need to write tack looks. Haven't seen retired. 86 strength, normal dev. We'll have to see his overall. We'll have to see his overall before we engage that pick. 2024 draft is in. This is a huge moment. Our draft recap. Come on baby. Come on. Yes. Oh my god. All 70 plus on everybody. Jamarcus broils. If that's my whiff. If this is who I whiffed on. I'm fine with it man. I lost Kyle Towns but I ended up settling for a 78 overall corner who has 96 speed. This guy's a dog. Totally fine with that. Philip McCauley is a 75 overall tight end with 87 speed. I think that's awesome. That should be good for Amir Anthony. Maro damn kind of thought Maro was going to be a nasty pickup. He ends up only being a 70 overall. Gandhi's a 71 so our second round wasn't as strong as I had hoped. We picked up a rookie halfback who's a 76 overall. Denzel Smith a 72 middle linebacker. Quincy Mackey a 73 detackle. Another 76 overall halfback and another tight end here in the final round. Like I said though I am going to move Johnny Maro to an edge rusher and luckily he's at the very least star because he's hidden death. Going to move him to left end and I just have to check with Jamarcus Brawls. Is Jamarcus Brawls a superstar? Dude he's a 78 overall. Come on. It's higher than Amir Anthony. Ah he's star. Damn it. Hasn't been my absolute best drafting but still dude a 96 speed 8 6 for 3 corners actually ridiculous. Listen man not everything has gone our way but I actually love the new look Rams. Cooper Cup has now finally regressed in overall and dev trait but George Harrison is now star and we still got Leviska Chinal. I think in this upcoming draft we definitely got to take a wide receiver though. I've got two stud rookie halfbacks and two stud rookie tight ends so I'm looking to trade Tyler Higbee and Kim Akers hopefully get more draft picks for this upcoming draft and then on defense. Really? Defense is awesome. Hassan Reddick does sign with us. Absolute unit. Byron Young is still star so when Hassan Reddick's out he can step right on in. Got our new rookie middle linebacker. Then Jamarcus Brawls. Demon man. I can't wait to see him progress. Got Durant and then Sweeney as well with Eric Armstead who signed in free agency and uh Joseph Morrow has moved to left end and he's the 71 overall there. Dude look at our cap room. We have 120 million cap room. Jesus. I'm gonna sign the biggest free agency signing ever this year. First and foremost though. Kim Akers. I don't really need you anymore. 88 overall he's worth a lot and next year he's gonna want to get paid along with Tyler Higbee who's I guess 32. He might not be worth as much. Let's find a team that needs a running back. This is a super weird trade but Kim Akers around three and around one pick for Marlin Humphrey. The Ravens are already in negative cap space. Marlin Humphrey is eating up a ton of that. He's also 29 so he's a little older but he's a 96 overall corner. I could beef up the defense. Get rid of Kim Akers so I don't need with all my good rookie running backs and a 20 27 first round. Oh no I need a low ball harder. I need a low ball harder. See I was just about to give up first round pick when I might not have needed to. Dude trading is busted.  This is busted.  So I can probably put in just some dogwater pick huh. Let's go 20 27 round three and 20 27 round four. I probably don't even need to put in round four. I could have done round seven or something right. We're fleecing. This is a fleece. Whatever man. You don't bite the hand that feeds you. Marlin Humphrey is a Los Angeles Ram. We give up some late round capital this year and next year. But whatever.  We ball. All right. It's time to mess with our depth chart for 2025. So we signed mitzvah.  Andrew Pratt will be our starter 92 speed 90 excel. I like it. Antoine Garner though 83 break tackle. McCauley is starting tight end. Higby moves down in the depth chart. I like that. We'll go Cooper cup as the starter. I want George Harrison to be bad to be second string. Rosenberg is perfect. I could actually see a serious record improvement for us this year. We have two huge defense signings and our quarterbacks a lot better. I'm going to shoot for seven wins. It might be a little aggressive but we have an easy schedule too. So I don't hate it. A few moments later. Bam we're getting smacked around in 2025 too.  So I guess technically we could make the playoffs. I did notice though this rookie guard that we got Derek Thomas. He's a 76 overall. He's actually better tackled than the tackle I drafted this year. I'm going to switch him to right tackle. The Lions make the Superbowl in 2025. The Chiefs get another ring. Mahomes gets another ring. I've seen this before. Lamar gets MVP. Henry Meekins of the Lions is offensive rookie of the year and the defensive rookie of the year. Oh my god. Johnny Marrow the detackle I drafted switched to left end wins defensive rookie of the year. Monster let's go. Steelers were the first team in the league at 15 and 2 didn't do anything with it though. Impressively the Lions were 10 and 7 went all the way to the Superbowl. Could be like this year in real life. I gotta say though the Rams had a massive step up this year. We had a positive record. 9 wins 8 losses. We completed our season goal of 7 wins. Let's see how our players did. Amir Anthony takes a huge leap in his second year. Eclipse is 4,000 yards. 32 and 11 is a huge improvement. A 106 above a 100 QBR. That's amazing. Cooper Cup. Oh my god. He has another monster season. He leads all receivers in the NFL with a thousand six hundred seventy four yards. Definitely the right call to have Cooper Cup be the primary. Tiny regression from his first season but he's already 32 now so this is still really impressive. George Harrison almost hits a thousand yards as the backup Leviska Chanel played solid and Philip McCauley in his first year. 44 receptions 423 averaging almost 10 yards per catch and 4 receiving touchdowns. Nice work. How did our rookie running back to Andrew Pratt had almost a thousand yards. One touchdown. Amir Anthony had two and the backup. Whoa. Do we start the backup? Antoine Gardner had nine rushing touchdowns. Dude coach sees something in Antoine Gardner that I am not seeing. He has. Dude this is insane though. Look at this. On 87 carries he has 18 broken tackles. On Pratt's 250 he has 24. Antoine Gardner earned the starting position. I got to know how Johnny Morrow won defensive rookie of the year though. He had 59 tackles 14 TFLs and seven and a half sacks. Armstead also had 14 TFLs but that's time one and a half sacks. He led my team in sacks. Oh no Hassan Redick had 13. Redick was awesome. That was a huge signing but Johnny Morrow great job that's how you win defensive rookie of the year. He should have gotten some nice upgrades too. He has three additional skill points here. I'm going to give him power rush on all of them. More tackle. More hit power power moves in pursuit and the final one will give him finesse play rec power moves speed and tackle. That's an awesome upgrade right there. He's still normal dev. I assume after the season's over for getting defensive rookie of the year. He'll go star. 80 speeds 78 excel 89 power moves stud. The rebuild is coming together. It's coming together boys. And with 112 million in cap space we can make a massive free agent signing.  Maybe I should have picked up Joe Burrow last year. This is a funny signing but there's a rookie full back Brandon Pierce who's 79 over I actually want him on my team. I'm thinking of dude there's nobody what. I mean we could trade for somebody I guess but this is a weak free agent market. Allante Taylor is low key a nasty DB 95 speed and he's 27. I got DB's man. I'm going to pick up Romeo doobs. I'm going to pick up Romeo doobs in free agency. He's 80 overall 26 93 speed. Dude how do you say his last name Dobbs. Give him a four year deal. We need him. Levisca Chanel left in free agency. He'll replace him but I kind of I want to draft a wide receiver because Cooper Cubs going to be out of here pretty soon man.  Cooper Cup got his X factor back. Nice work. Garner is the starter. Looks like looks like the depth chart knew that Garner was the guy to go with. Like who would I even sign in free agency. We have good players. I guess I could take a backer. Eventually a safety. Eric Armstead's regressed so we actually do need D line. Nobody in free agency. Shit. I think a big mistake I made was I was so worried about cap space. I'm offloading players and trading them but in reality I have like infinite cap room right now. I could have kept a lot of good players. I could have kept Aaron Donald for a while. I should have taken a Hail Mary in free agency in year one or year two but I guess in 2026 hopefully there's better free agents. It's time for the 2026 NFL draft. We focused our scouting on wide receiver because Cooper Cup is getting to a point where he's either going to retire or just continue to regress. At my pick there is some linebackers and hatbacks up high but I don't need either. I really don't. My wide receiver options are two. There's Daniel Lockley a 6-2 wide receiver out of Iowa State. My concern about him is his release is D. Deeprout running D to F. Catch of traffic D catches B. I don't like him so much but a little bit further down is Eddie Douglas who also just doesn't look that good but at least his Deeprout is a B. I'm only got five seconds left to pick. I'm going to go with Eddie Douglas. I don't think either of these guys are that great. Hidden depth so he's at least star. 95 change of direction is disgusting. 94 excel. 92 speed. That's actually really good and he's a six foot two playmaker. Little white Chong. That's a that's a literal Cooper Cup replacement too because I took the I don't know he looks kind of Mexican almost but whatever. I took the white gritty wide receiver. A to B break tackle. A to B ball carrier vision. A to B injury. Medium routes. Okay spectacular catches an A. A hard A. Eddie Douglas. All right Eddie. Don't have too many picks in this draft and they're kind of late here. I don't even get a third rounder but with this pick I got to take the line. Mauro is pretty good at D. Tackle be great. D. Tackle be really nice. My best option here is Leon Montgomery. He's got a power moves. I just don't see any reason to take another position. 6 3 23. University South floor. Leon Montgomery. I don't know about that. 89 strength is actually pretty solid for D. Tackle. 73 speed 81 excel. Normal depth. We just got to hope Eddie Gonzalez was the right pick. I think the biggest dopamine rush I get during a rebuild is when I hit A on draft recap. The draft recap. Eddie Douglas. Okay. Nothing crazy. Nothing bad either. Also Leon Montgomery is a 73 overall D. Tackle. So that's not bad. Probably our weakest overall draft so far. Jose Marshall left garb 73. Not bad in the fourth round too. That's a that's a very nice pickup actually. Let me get 69 outside linebacker Darren Irving and Joey O'Neill. Nothing too special. Eddie Douglas though. 95 change of direction is hilariously good. Aw his spectacular catch is 86. He is hidden dev though. Please bro. Please. I have not yet gotten a single superstar. I know it's hard to draft a superstar so I don't expect him to be. And this is pretty. This is actually pretty late in the second round. Player trades. Yes. Eddie Douglas is oh my god. It's literally Cooper Cubs replacement. Eddie Douglas is a dog. He's a 75 overall. I want him to be offensive rookie of the year. He's everything George Marshall wished he could be. Heading into 2026. Could we actually make a playoff run at this point. My season goal is once again seven wins. Not trying to get Sean McVeigh fired out here. Here's the squad right now. We are almost entirely filled with auto-generated players. The only remaining real players are Avila Biadaz, Cooper Cubs, Romeo Dobbs. We just got. Masan Redak has gone up the superstar. Congrats to him. Mauro did not get a dev trade upgrade for defensive rookie of the year which is a shocker. Jamarcus broils is up to an 83. And pretty soon here we might need a new free safety. I really I do like this team a lot. I just I don't know. I probably needed to draft D line earlier. I actually have like too many good offensive linemen. I have multiple young solid offensive line. I am moving Eddie Douglas to my starting slot wide receiver. He is a superstar. This young in his career. He's going to develop so well. We've got all this extra old line talent. Let's see if we can't get an edge rusher off of a team. The buccaneers really need a tackle. I'm going to try and give up my young tackle Julius Gandy who I took in the second round and then a six and seven picked a sweet in the deal.  How are we going to get glad you can't would you do it for a second round pick.    I thought that and the 2026 season closes with gas who can city chiefs win another one beat the Eagles. No offense of a defensive rookie the year for us. This was a really bad season actually we regressed when once we hit nine and eight I thought we were on the right trajectory. We fall back to five and 12. All hope is not lost for the Rams though. I think the greatest thing you'll notice if you're Rams fan is superstar Amir Anthony. Now I'm going to be honest I have literally no idea how this happened but Eddie Douglas was superstar and somehow the season turned out so poorly for him that he regressed all the way to normal. I genuinely didn't even know that that was possible. Romeo Dube's went up to star so that's nice George Harrison still star but Eddie Douglas how did you go from superstar star 142 million cab space no wonder we can't win I'm the world's cheapest GM I got 142 million cab space I'm gonna sign every free agent known to man. Dude I'm sick of these bum wide receivers in the draft do I just I just signed Dave Flowers to a fat deal I can get Marvin Mims for significantly cheaper but I've kind of got the money to just do as I please here. I'm gonna offer Dave Flowers some crazy money here given Dave Flowers a very player friendly deal. The offer strength is strong he may do it I'm sick I'm sick of Eddie Douglas superstar Eddie Douglas going to normal. Marcus Williams wouldn't be the worst signing either we're just picking up all these Ravens players I'll give him a player friendly deal I'm also going to give the forest Buckner dear it's just it's just like the Eric Armstead signing I don't expect him to stick around for a long time I do want him on the squad right now it's also Anton Harrison a star 25 year old left tackle I'm picking him up to my move in the right tackle depending on our team needs gotta give him a juicy deal if he's gonna sign only one free agent sign with us and that's the forest Buckner I'm safety list oh my god this team is falling apart defense I'm missing a safety I gotta draft a safety actually 20 27 NFL we have round one picks six the only thing is there's only one safety in this entire draft who's even round one talent so I either take this dude or I reach deep into the second so he's either good or we completely whiff here it's DeMar Irving he's a gigantic free safety 632 52 what kind of free safety hold up biggest safety in NFL history this is the biggest safety NFL history all right well camp chancellor was 632 40 this is like basically camp chancellor holy shit he's huge okay we got ourselves a little camp chancellor DeMar Irving 91 excel 91 speed that's pretty good he's hitting devs so he's star superstar that's really really good news um our next picks that's around five we traded away all these picks we have to win this season oh shit shit shit cancel no oh I need to see the draft recap well I basically only got one player so let's go learn about him right now DeMar Irving our free safety out of Oklahoma he has 91 speed 77 zone 91 excel zone is pretty good he's almost kind of like a zone safety okay hit power block shedding and play record all right good pursuit to man say he's a 77 overall he's at least star dev I'm excited about DeMar Irving going into the 20 27 season we have to start winning man I've got a superstar Amir Anthony at quarterback superstar on Fresno state he's got excellent accuracy he's 82 speed 90 excel he is ready to win I just need everybody else to be ready to win wait a minute it's midseason I was checking in on our players DeMar Irving is a superstar and for the first time ever we have positive team morale and we're up to an 86 overall offensive line is looking spectacular because we're winning games right now we are seriously winning games of four and three record at midseason the Niners lead the NFC West but this is really really good for us it's it's it's amazing let's close this season out strong we might actually make the playoffs I don't think we'll win the NFC West but we definitely can make the playoffs here oh oh the 49ers fell off a cliff the Niners who were six and one and the Rams are 13 and four what we lost one game the rest of the season oh my god let's see how our team did Amir Anthony is fourth in the NFL in passing yards 10th damn why is Andrew Pratt getting yards I started Garner I think I have auto-reordered depth chart that's all Amir Anthony 4491 passing yards 74% completion 114 QBR Amir Anthony falling out Pratt seems to continue to get starter over Gardner and Gardner has 18 touchdowns this shit makes no sense to me I need to turn off auto reorder depth chart auto-reorder depth chart is so nice though when you're like picking up rookies and going through seasons but here it's like bro my boy Gardner's gotta go but I guess both running backs are kind of going off so whatever do your thing we got a little running bag duo they got the same face scan anyway bro it's the same guy Cooper Kopp I'm so glad we didn't trade him he's insane man he actually is insane Eddie Douglas doing a whole lot of nothing man nothing dupes a solid season Philip Macaulay a really good season George Harrison balled out and then Cooper Kopp with a thousand seven or seventy-two he averaged more yards per game this season than in his very first Superstar X Factor 99 overall season so that's awesome just less touchdown defensively Kenneth Murray leads our team in tackles then Denzel Smith the second year player Jordan Fuller Demar Irving 72 with TFL no interceptions for Demar Irving those I kind of hope and he'd get a little more Hassan Reddick had 14 sacks DeForest Buckner had 11 Johnny Morrow had seven Skyler Redding had two Kalajia Kansy at three and a half Kalajia Kansy underwhelming I thought that trade was gonna be really nice for us but Morrow continues to play well the free agency signing of DeForest Buckner was really nice so 14 TFLs and 11 sacks so can't be mad there Jake Elliott solid year I really did not expect that this year dude Rams rebuilds throwing me a lot of curveballs I can tell you that much we actually got a buy we don't even have a wild card game so everybody's feeling good everybody's got these big overall boosts Amir Anthony has boosted from a 93 to a 98 it's almost a damn 99 Demar Irving is our only Superstar on defense but everybody's just doing really really well Jamarka's broils is up to an 87 overall and Marlon Humphrey also has a skill point everything leads up to this playoff game against 99 overall for Bryce Young the 13 to 4 Rams take on the 9 and 8 Panthers they snuck into the playoffs and get past the wild card Panthers have Bryce Young Brian Burns Aquanu JC Horn Derek Brown Chin Jamie McCants 94 speed wide receiver all right we'll sim this game I can only step in if it's a one possession game if we're getting smoked I'm not allowed to step in 88 overall Rams take on the Panthers in the divisional let's go Panthers score to open this up Rams score in return 7 to 6 Panthers get another field goal 9 to 7 we get a field goal 10 to 9 Panthers score 16 to 10 oh no oh no 24 to 10 are the Panthers really going to knock us out right now oh Rams score I can't step in right now if we get a drive I'll step in 17 to 24 it's 3rd and 2 I'm going to step in look at this squad man Amir Anthony and Cooper Cup leading the charge we're going to go with a run to our boy Pratt he's got a lot of room a big juke it's first in 10 I could step in for the 3rd and 2 but I'm not allowed to do anything else I'm just gonna let him go man I feel bad even stepping in it's 4th and 4 come on Rams I can't see you got this yo they scored the Rams scored it's 24 to 24 wait a minute wait a minute wait a minute I can watch 24 to 24 the Panthers are in field goal range we've used all of our timeouts oh no they're just gonna milk the clock oh no they're just gonna milk the clock to the games out miles Sanders runs for five hey I'm just glad we made a playoff push man they call a timeout with 11 seconds here no just shank it just shank that shit or go block it boys come on field goals up it looks like you drilled it he absolutely drills it here's the kickoff with eight seconds you know a miracle could happen a miracle could happen the kick return oh my god awesome moment of my life oh my god you can't say shit about me stepping in man I stepped into red hat back stretch on third and two and that is it oh my god no dude that's so insane that's insane I'm never oh my god now it's the nsc championship let's go there's no way this is our Super Bowl year right this would be a Cinderella story we win it right now take it on the Vikings they're 11 and six 89 overall we're in 88 boys if you watched all the way to this point video and got to see that kick return we're witnessing history oh that was just one of the coolest moments I've ever seen first quarter Vikings get a field goal Rams may score here we should we miss the field goal Jake Elliott makes the next one it's three to three low scoring nsc championship ooh Viking score on fourth down Vikings are taking it to us 13-3 is not looking good for the Rams right now our Cinderella run maybe over maybe another field goal from Jake Elliott Viking score again I think the Cinderella story is over man okay wait a minute 20 to 13 Vikings are milking the clock they score again that game wasn't close enough for me to feel like I could have stepped in 23 to 13 we fall in the nfc championship but nobody will forget nobody will forget Sweeney's kick return in the divisional and the 13 and 4 Rams are very ready for another winning season hey I don't feel bad now because those Vikings who took us down they narrowly won the Super Bowl so it was the best team defensive rookie of the year is Devon Jarrett of the Bears offensive rookie of the year is Morris Gerard of the Patriots Bijan gets offensive player of the year and Mahomes gets another MVP I just suck him off why don't you here's the team prior to free agency Amir Anthony's got himself boosted to a 99 and Cooper Cup retired Cooper Cup retired no damn I really wanted to get another Super Bowl Cooper Cup was here on defense this is so weird DeMar Irving loses his superstar but Marlon Humphrey gets it back I don't understand the progression here at all the Forrest Buckner regresses Hassan Reddick regresses but they're both they both still have really good core overalls Kalajia Kansi's up to an 86 so he's progressing well and Maros playing really well too we have good base overalls I have two D dot Irving safeties so in free agency I need a strong safety and hopefully a wide receiver it's like there's a lot of DBs but I don't really need DBs come on Alex Toon an 88 overall left tackle who's 25 what this guy's a monster who's the best wide receiver available there ain't shit available for wide receivers man look at this dude bro Alex Riddick a 74 overall 24 year old with 98 speed there is Kai Hobbs who's 78 I got much higher overall 96 speed you think that 98 speeds like good enough for this to be worth it he's also 24 dude I'm gonna try this dude Alex Riddick his interest in my team is negative but he threw enough money at a guy shit money talks baby dude there's just no good free agents I was really hoping for big free agent markets I'm gonna pick up Alex Toon how do you pass on a 25 88 start even if your offensive line is good man he's already interested in our team might be able to trade one of my other guys to potentially get a safety Kirby Joseph is available I think we pick him up and move him to strong safety yeah just gotta make him a fat deal we got the cap space for it I'm also gonna pick up Quinn Miners and we're just gonna make a big trade with the guards that we have gosh there's just not a lot of free agency we were unable to get Quinn Miners in free agency but dude we got this monster Alex Toon and left tackle young 88 overall stall that's such a good signing I can't believe he was even a free agent uh Rosenberg moves to right tackle Jefferson's and be it as an Avila such a good offensive line Kirby Joseph does sign with us as well a former lion I really like Kirby Joseph as is he still has room to improve I just need to move him to strong safety because that's the hole in our defense we've got a nice mix of veteran players and current studs as well Marlon Humphrey Kirby Joseph DeFloris Buckner Hassan Redick and then the rest of these guys are either mid-aged or very young I'm just sad we didn't get a lot of superstars not a lot of dev trade upgrades so far for our squad but I'm happy with what we got we still have the draft the only thing is I'm round one pick 30 because we finally played really really well I don't expect there to be a superstar here I wouldn't hate drafting a wide receiver but damn the amount of times I've whiffed on wide receiver makes me mad Amari Ford is sitting here right for me he's 6 3 2 19 out of Washington his skills are really bad his speed is good agility is great change direction is great looks like a strong wide receiver a spectacular catch Amari Ford Noah Kingsbury out of Florida has elite speed 4 2 5 40 at the College Broday I'm taking Noah Kingsbury like Amari Ford might be the better pick here but no oh oh oh this before he had the College Broday he's a 99 hard 99 speed 90 when he said bro he's a normal dev this guy's going to be a f***ing maniac oh shit sorry sorry to Riddick sorry to that other dude I got oh my god I'm advancing straight to the end of the draft I need to see this guy time for the draft recap always the best time okay maybe I overreacted he's not as good as I anticipated he's only a 66 overall with 99 speed how do you f*** with that man 99 speech get my f***ing eater going into the season Amir Anthony 97 overall Andrew Pratt is an 89 with 93 speed Pratt's definitely half back one wide receivers my technical wide receiver one is George Harrison but I'm gonna move dogs up there I'm gonna take Noah Kingsbury move him to wide receiver to Kingsbury is also our kick return and putt returner and I'm gonna move Kingsbury to my slot wide receiver we're putting a lot of faith in Kingsbury having a good season because right now we really just don't have good threats for Amir Anthony but 99 speed I just feel like he has to have a great season another 14 and 3 season for the Rams amazing work here but wow I'm starting to realize that just because my wide receiver at 99 speed did not mean he was gonna be good and without Cooper Cup we're noticing how tough this is so receiving Kingsbury did eclipse a thousand but only nine touchdowns 66.9 yards per game I mean that's not even close to Cooper Cup who did 112 in his best season uh Dobbs almost hit a thousand Douglas okay Eddie Douglas finally having a halfway decent season and um that's pretty much it I don't think I can stick to Noah Kingsbury anymore we have like a serious wide receiver dilemma here over with the Rams but rushing Andrew Pratt takes a massively very well outperforming Garner 10 touchdowns though to his 11,100 rushing yards on the season continues to eclipse a thousand so that's good and defensively Kenneth Murray continues to be our tackle leader Marlon Humphrey had a very good season another 14 sacks out of Hasan Reddick Leon Montgomery the detackle with seven and a half Marl is six bucking her five and a half collage you can't see three and a half clutch can't see not doing shit once again a buy in the wild card dude can I sign a free agent wide receiver that's all we need to take on the Tampa Bay bucking ears in the divisional I don't know if we've got what it takes to win a Super Bowl this season but Amir Anthony is damn near 99 overall my offensive line has got to be one of the best in the league I just need an elite superstar wide receiver for this man Rams score first Tampa Bay gets a field goal Rams about to score again oh this might be an easy divisional for us here oh no Bucking ears return Rams are marching fourth and one hit the field goal 10 to 17 another big field goal hit it 20 to 17 this is so close third and nine fourth and nine oh we barely hung on holy shit we barely hung on 17 to 20 Amir Anthony gets the dub let's go oh my god it's an NFC championship rematch against the Vikings are we gonna lose to them again our Rams Vikings rivalry is spawning in the playoffs first quarter's not even done okay there we go come on Rams don't let him do this yes 21 to 14 no way Amir Anthony is actually going to carry this dog shit receiver core 21 to 28 to 21 top them defense no 28 to 28 no i gotta let him do it i just gotta let him do it come on big field go hit it yes 31 to 35 Amir Anthony's in no huddle rifles it out we need a touchdown here though no Amir Anthony sacked we're in no huddle it's third and 12 somehow the clock is not running 100 percent oh rifle hit him that he rifled it but out of time out the Rams lose again in the NFC championship to the Minnesota Vikings please let there be a free agent if there's not a free agent I'm trading everything for a monster this is our year to win the Super Bowl we are unloading whatever we can to get Amir Anthony a superstar wide receiver he's down to star how he just went to the NFC championship how are we losing superstars like crazy let's see the available free agents we've got the cap room for some monsters who are you he's a 94 overall but he's only a star he's only got 90 speed I might trade for somebody super legit Christian Watson's looking for a new team he's 86 overall he's 30 now Christian Watson can join damn Quentin Nelson wants to play with us let's go Quentin Nelson lastly an old Montez sweat is looking for a contract we'll pick him up for a Super Bowl run I've basically put the Rams in the same position they used to be in I do not care about this draft I straight up don't I'm putting my first round pick in which isn't too valuable and I'll throw in a halfway decent wide receiver and I'm gonna throw George Harrison in as part of this deal you take a look at Ray she rice oh my god he's turned into a demon he's a 99 overall X factor George Harrison 85 overall and my round one pick for Ray she rice he's old don't feel offer brings enough value they want a little bit more for him no we're right there what if I offered you my 2030 fifth round pick as well all those late picks in 2030 shit oh we're right there once you get my 2030 round four and you're just ready to give it up 98 overall Superstar X factor Ray she rice is a lost agent of this ram George Harrison Riddick my first round pick this year okay we don't we don't gotta we don't gotta draft now going into 2029 it's not for a Super Bowl perhaps a 92 Amir Anthony's a 97 we picked up Ray she rice the 99 overall Superstar X factor we added Quentin Nelson Steve Avila 84 star we should definitely trade him get some value out of it Rosenberg who we drafted is an 84 over here and beat as 81 Phillip McCauley and 83 now and then Christian Watson's why we even do pretty much fully revamped the wide receivers on defense we did get Buckner he signed with us Montez sweat did as well and we still have collage you can't see Jamarcus broils is now CB one Humphrey's CB two Kirby Joseph and Damar Irving with Reading and Daniels still just chilling in here and Hassan Riddick is still kicking let's go Hassan it is our season that's the best season we've had yet 15 and 2 let's see how the team did Amir Anthony just can't get into first place in the NFL but damn he's doing really really good if we look across the entire NFL Amir Anthony is fourth and his rival Mike Almond is first fuck you Mike Almond Antswan Gardner who left for free agency ends up having an amazing season with the Patriots Patriots going off Raishi Rice dominates the league in receiving yards and it ain't even close Raishi Rice with almost 2000 112.9 per game and 19 touchdowns Jesus defensively Kenneth Murray is sixth in the league and tackles not bad and Pratt rushes for another a thousand yard season Quincy Stanley the backup 16 whatever it is about Rams playbook with the backup running back is sharking touchdowns honestly not good for Pratt's progression but it's okay he's still doing well Hassan Reddick is so good dude I love Hassan Reddick he just keeps getting older he keeps getting crazy sacks Kalajik Kansya 10 sacks season nine for Matthias Buckner it's it's Super Bowl I mean it's not Super Bowl or bust like this team would continue to progress but it's 2029 it's been six years time for the divisional I'm hoping this is just a below out we get the Washington commanders who are eight and nine the eight and nine commanders got through the wild card all right the league is changing man all the superstars in the league are players that weren't even here when we started this other than Raishi Rice Raishi Rice has just turned into absolute demon it's 10 to 7 commanders look like they're gonna score again though 14 to 10 don't tell me the eight and nine commanders are gonna take out the 15 and two Rams right 17 to 14 24 to 14 21 to 24 wait just a minute you boys gotta score here 27 to 21 commanders score wait a minute do we make the field goal we do 30 to 28 commanders have the ball they have one timeout left we just gotta watch the boys ball out see this is where it'd be so nice to have some abilities on these edge rushers blazer tackled in bounds he's in no huddle they don't use their timeout there gotta get a stop they throw underneath missed the tackle he's down at the 50 they're not forced to take a timeout yet they gotta get in field goal range right here with this pass holy shit Montez sweat that was huge pass rush gotta get home it does wobbler out of bounds oh we're barely hanging onto this lead it's third and 17 this might be the last play of the game hucks one deep it's not the last dude if he had caught that and toe dragged it though just get home he loves something safe rams hang on we hang on by two in the divisional onto the nsc championship will we see the minnesota vikings again it's the 94 overall nine and eight callus cowboys definitely could be a tough game here who's gonna score first it looks like it might be us we do we get a field goal up we stopped the cowboys again oh seven to ten cowboys score right back looks like we might score here 17 to seven ooh they score rams score damn i didn't even have to watch it 24 to 14 the rams finally we broke the nfc championship curse two straight years we lose it finally win it the super bowl is against the nine and eight houston texas i've faced an eight nine and nine and eight now another nine and eight team let's check out the yearly awards mohomes got mvp amir anthony just behind fuck mohomes why is mohomes always winning shit coach of the year is shawd mcvey the nfc offensive player of the year is ray she rice defensive player of the year aiden hudgerton but hasan reddick got fifth offensive rookie of the year is quincy stanley our backup running back it all comes down to this gentleman our super bowl rams lineup is as follows we got toon out of free agency now in 92 overall quentin nelson we got steve avila who we have to trade after this year we got beat as jefferson and rosenberg both from the draft and philip mccawley from the draft free agent christian watson and a big expensive trade for ray she rice hey if we win this super bowl we are leaving the rams in good hands on defense we got so many super star upgrades finally jamarcus broyles is a 93 with super star mathias buckner 91 with super star and damar erving he's got another upgrade and he is super star as well we leave everybody in good hands asan reddick may retire this year so a free agent linebacker isn't bad but if i win the super bowl that shit ain't my problem but at least like if we win this super bowl we're not leaving the team all depleted we're we got a great team this is a dynasty the 91 overall rams taken on the 93 overall qston texans in the super bowl come on we need it we need it opening drive texans are oh we scored we scored on the opening drive the texans only get a field goal our next drive we score again texans got a safety oh shit it's 17 to 5 this super bowl is so weird the rams are dicking on them this super bowl's a blowout 24 to 12 it's about all she wrote we're running this puppy out that might be quincy stanley in time out from the texans we may have to punt this back if we don't convert here on the back of amir anthony oh later that was the christian watson victory formation it's super bowl of 2029 oh my god this rams super bowl 24 to 12 against the texans oh my god that was so difficult so stressful i think i made some big mistakes though i made some rookie mistakes but we were able to correct them oh my god racy rices and nasty holy shit almost at the 2000 yard season and there's our boy amir anthony you earned it amir you earned that super bowl trophy don't ever let anybody take that from you take it out cj star on the super bowl 24 for 27 elite accuracy from the mere anthony should have been mvp but whatever racy rices with 7 for 87 and two touchdowns in the super bowl he low key could win super bowl mvp if it's not a mere anthony the boys just played great 24 to 12 that's all she wrote and we've simmed up to the 2030 season i just want to see what hands we're leaving this team in i didn't draft myself i didn't re-sign free agents i just want to see what it'd be like if we just simmed the rest of it so racy rice is actually starting to regress because he is a little bit older honestly it's kind of just like it's kind of just like kubernetes cup when we took this team over the only difference is now there's a 94 overall star running back there's a 99 super star qb quit and nelson and tune and honestly quit nelson's getting a little older maybe a vila stays and we trade quit nelson all we did was take quit nelson for the super bowl run by the way i want to know your guys opinion on this is this cheating in a franchise to move a guard to tackle i feel like that doesn't honestly translate very well in the actual league so maybe i shouldn't be allowed to do that but in this context he's an 85 overall star so my o-line is still spectacular and then defensively matthias buckner 88 overall month has sweats really regressing brewers a guy we drafted looks like he's a 76 d tackle seems like a good pickup we also got downing a safety total with there at 66 kirby joseph still salad tomorrow Irving will be a stud for a long time broils one of the best corners in the league now it looks like marlin humphrey finally retires we're leaving this team in a bad linebacker position a lot of these guys are getting older and losing their development traits but our d-line and our dbs are really really solid so shit man i think we did a great job on this rebuild i i learned so much from this rebuild because i had made so many mistakes but i'll take those into my fourth ever rebuild but hey every friday expect a rebuild from me should be a blast hey i love you guys thank you so much for watching as always and i'll see you in the next video peace


Okay, so this is the Jenkins governance meeting it's the third of November. Thanks everyone for being here. And sharing my screen. So proposed agenda that I had was news and election status report were the only two things that I had on my list, any other items. Okay, and I apologize I have a hard stop about 20 minutes into the meeting so I will have to delegate the meeting host thing if we reach that point to someone else. Good. Alright, so news security release is happening tomorrow. LTS baseline is also selected and will be the same version as is in the security release tomorrow. And big news the guava update has merged, it will be in the weekly after the LTS baseline. So think of this is similar to the tables to divs change where we will give ourselves several months before the will give ourselves three or four months of weekly testing of the guava update before it visit arrives in an LTS next year. What is the likely impact for users. There are there are some plugins that are appear to be un-maintained and need an update it's a relatively small number of plugins, but there are some and so some some users will be impacted. I don't think the impact will be anywhere near as large as the tables to this choice. Will it be obvious users when that happens. It will. Okay, yeah, the failure mode. I understand correctly is quite obvious. It's good because it's hard to explain why tables to dev failed. So, right, right. And this one I think I think will fail with with much more obvious failure messages like plug in failed to load because of a resolve symbol. And then a static version of wiki. Oh, the hacktoberfest blog post is online and a static HTML version of wiki dot Jenkins that I always online. The content can be edited from the GitHub repo and engine X redirects are available and seem to be working so most of the plugin pages are correctly redirected to plugins that Jenkins that IO. Nice behavior. Any questions or concerns on the news items. I'm sorry about the static HTML conversion. What is the plan here. I thought we wanted to migrate everything to Jenkins IO. Now we have the content in the wiki, and we can edit it. They took a dump of the wiki when it went and went down. And all those pages have been shoved into a repo and served by index. There's no dynamic content. There's no database is pointed at a GitHub repo. I'm like you though I don't think it should have come back. I think it should have stayed down so that we had motivation to get it finished. I think every time we bring it back, the problem just gets still longer but a valid point in this case. By bringing it back we got the benefit that links resolve and links that were dated to and for instance pointing to a plugin documentation that had already been redirected are again redirected. User experience is better, but you're right that we've got more to do, and our plan still is to move content to www.jankins.io instead of leaving it just to sit on wiki. Did that address your question really. Yes, yes. Okay. Anything else on news. Okay then election status report, we have 74 registered voters. And if I understand correctly nominations nominations have ended have closed and registration we're now in the phase where the election committee is verifying that the nominated individuals are willing to accept the nomination and beyond the ballot. Yeah, do you want to say anything or do you want me to read out Olivia's notes. Yeah, I know nothing more than Oliver's note I did contact with notes I did contact a few people last week. They, they, those who answered answered in the messages to the community, sorry election committee. But then I started new work this week and my, my head is somewhere else than the election so I don't have anything more than what Oliver has shared. Do you have it. I put up so it's fine. He says we have three candidates that have accepted for the board position. And notes and what is wording here. Yeah, just three candidates have accepted the position or accepted nomination. One hasn't replied and one has declined. So on top of that. So I'm pretty sure that means three total. So that's a position we only have one that there's any competition everyone else is straightforward. And between the three of us we've collected most statements from most people that we're still finishing that off. And Olivier is a word prepared to send out the emails or pull the emails from discord. So he should be doing that soon. Okay, so he, and he had mentioned to me that there was a surprise for him in terms of querying the, the discourse email addresses is that resolved for him so he's got it. Once he finishes mergers a fix it should be fixed. I think it was necessary to add that note. Excellent okay. Yeah so looks like he could use only originally grabbing 50 a time and now he's paging any properly. Okay. All right, that's excellent. So, so now in in the spirit of Adelina's Olivier starts a new job next Monday as well. So he's got the complication that he'll be he'll be quite heavily loaded. I understood he planned to have them email message ready to send so the sending active effort was going to be pretty simple so that when he, while he's starting his new job he also is, is able to still send that email on time. I mean that's not in the notes. Okay it's not all right okay well we'll hope the next step for me is to prepare the email to invite the voters and to board members next Monday. So I mean, he said Monday. Okay good. Excellent. And then the, the, the actual ballots sent early next week. The last sentence is next step for me is to prepare the email to invite voters to let the documentation officer and the two board members next Monday. Super. Okay, great. So I suspect that Monday as well but I don't know. Super. Thank you. Any discussion needed on that topic. I'm not here if if if he's in trouble with time then I would expect him to post the message and let's see who and how can help but yeah, we'll take it. Yeah and he didn't indicate he had any time challenge when I talked to him. There are things that are brought up in the mail list that I don't think board needs to address but it should be because this is a weekly or bi-weekly meeting. There's discussion about one password. All right. Like I said I don't think it needs to be decided right now but it's worth writing in the minutes. You had great luck with people stepping up to adopt plugins lately, which is more work for Tim and I but it's a good thing. See, and I had proposed proposed docs triage team members. And I'm getting plus ones from that another day or two and I'll act on the plus ones. Oh, good days Jenkins acceptance test is now fully passing. Oh yes Jenkins ATH is green. I mean, how long ever. I think ever. So it's pretty close to ever. If it's not ever it's pretty close. I'm just looking through the last two weeks of mail in this post there is talks about companies being able to manage teams. I guess I don't know what that one is about I'm not going to go into that one. There's we resurfaced the discussion about having some sort of job board. Yeah, and then the government's meeting again so yeah, I mean I just sort of highlight some successes and stuff from the mean list. Great. Thank you. Thanks very much. Anything else. I'm continuing to work on my fun project of converting the website to Gatsby. So expect some more Jenkins that IO PR coming to fix data. And thank you for that data repairs that we're getting from that are wonderful. Thanks very much. The website now support searching for everything. Yeah, that was a big one. That's a really improvement now. Yeah that's a special thanks to our goalie and that was amazing how easy that was we ask. They propose their own pull request that makes the change and we see after they do it and merge it it works. What a great no idea that met it with that meant it's data does but I'm so happy with. Yeah, really nice. Very, very nice. Absolutely. Yeah, super. I think next meeting I'm going to try to remember to do this again I like having the topic so I'll try to make sure that we have some both mailing list and forms if anything. Oh, good. Yes. The farms have gotten a little bit heavy on just support questions. I'd love to see more non support stuff on there, but right, it's still good. Thank you mark for helping me out because I'm getting a little exhausted answering everyone so well and thank you for answering Gavin that's great. Thank you for being great.  I think we just reached the point of done with our agenda topics like are they any topics you need to bring to the meeting that we're not not already on the agenda. Oh, I can use the advantage of not so many topics and focus on the big way. Okay, so speaking series. First week update regarding government stuff. Yeah, continuously every foundation has applied to the inclusive of naming initiative. Before we are waiting for Jenkins to be listed there. Just a second. I lost the zoom. Is it waiting for Jenkins and I missed the last word there. So we are waiting for the request to be approved. And once it's approved. Yeah, you will have Jenkins officially listed there and Jenkins will be added to the list of events we want to promote. All right, so, and when you say it for the rest request to be approved that's by the the I and I board not by CDF. It's a bit tricky because it goes to the Linux foundation, but it's generally at the CDF level we are prompted. Okay, thanks to stages one on the to see level and the one on governance board. So we passed through that. And yes, speaking of that, it's rather personal update. So as far as I discovered the CDF to see member is also a member of the CDF governing board. So with regards to budgets, etc. I cannot present Jenkins interest directly on the CDF governing board level, at least until the next directions. So that's you're on the CDF governing board or the Linux foundation governing CDF. The Linux foundation would be cool but it's way above my current rating in whatever foundation. Yeah. So you said you can't talk about it. No, I can. No, I thought you said you can't talk about something because you're on the board and I was like that's okay, I just, I'm sure I can represent Jenkins there. So, for example, we will have quite interesting budgeting discussions for the next year, which are about to start including infrastructure budgets. Yeah, there is spending requested to Microsoft is regards to Asia sponsorship, but it's not clear where it will go. So, basically, being involved in these discussions would be nice. And for your information Mark Anders Walgreen, he basically represents cloud bees on the governing board because cloud this is a premier of member. So we used to have one to one meetings with you while I was at cloud bees. So if you want you can take it over. Thanks. Okay. And maybe for the record, I'm changing my affiliation and no longer employed by cloud bees. I officially joined the dynamic race on Monday. I will send official notice to the developer mailing list, but it impacts elections, because I'm no longer affiliated and no longer, I don't even have no competition and other things. So I will be representing another company. Yeah, I'm looking forward to quite productive cooperation, because that interest is quite active and distributed tracing domain is these. So observability stores, etc. Okay. Okay. Yeah, official announcement to be sent. But yeah. Excellent. I think we're going to meet. Mark still in. I think we are. If there are no other topics I proposed to close the meeting. If, if we don't close the meeting I need to hand hosting to somebody else because I'm, I've got a hard stop that I've got to deal with for personal needs. Let's just call it over. I'll try to join on time next time. But yeah, it depends on this small kid. That small kid is is a great first focus. Thanks for joining us all like Evelina. Gavin, thanks all. We'll talk again in two weeks. Thanks.


If somebody feels that he's putting in a lot of effort and his efforts are not being recognized, how does that person motivate himself or herself to say, I don't really give a damn as to what other people think, I have to keep on doing what I'm doing, I have to excel myself every day. What is the message that you would like to give people who feel that sometimes their efforts do not get recognized to the level that they think they have put in? See, these are two extremes.   At the same time thinking my efforts are not giving the necessary result, I think a whole lot of people feel this way. I'm saying in your assessment, you may be doing great, but the world has to recognize too. Somebody else has to see value to what you're doing. Only then it'll find recognition. If you feel it's valuable, you're doing it. Then don't bother about other people's recognition. But if what you're doing is useful to them, let's understand this, not because what you're doing is great, because what you're doing is useful to them, they will say, oh, this is wonderful. So I don't give a damn, definitely doesn't work. But whether other people recognize you or not, depending upon how useful it is at a given time to people, that depends what is the type of job you've taken up. Now, I must say this. See, today wherever I go, people are saying things, oh, he's a yogi, he's a mystic.  They don't know what is a yogi, what is a mystic. Now because it's internationally recognized, everybody's clapping their hands. I've been saying the same things for last thirty-five years. Nobody thought anything about it. Now somewhere else in America, people are clapping their hands, here also they started clapping their hands, okay? It means nothing to me, all the recognition. Someday if people truly recognize what is being a yogi and are inspired to become that, that's wonderful. Of course, there are many people who are inspired by that. But I'm telling you, even people who are near around me, including my family, if I was sitting under a tree, same yogi, no recognition in the world, they wouldn't think nothing of my being a yogi.  Today because it's internationally recognized, everybody is saying this is, he is a great yogi.  They don't know damn thing about it. It is just that many people see it's useful to them. So there is recognition, let's understand this. People are not recognizing the quality of who I am. They are recognizing the usefulness that I am to them. Only that part gets recognition.  And it's okay. I think that's beautifully said. And I think if I was to translate that into our language out here in this room, I would… I would use your language.  I would say that keep at it as to what you're doing. One day people will see the use of that in their lives and your time will come like his time came when people started clapping. So all you retail professionals, don't worry about what the world thinks, keep on doing what you're doing. Am I right in saying that? Oh, that's a deduction. I would say that if your… if your work is an expression of your joyfulness, whether recognition or no recognition, what does it matter? You're finding an opportunity to express your joy. And if you look at your own lives and see the moments where… where you're in pursuit of your happiness, what is the quality of those moments? The moments when you're expressing your joy, what is the quality of those moments? Those moments if you see, you will see whenever you're expressing your happiness or joy, they are the best moments in your life. If your work is an expression of your joy, your working moments will be the best moments of your life.


Different structures, different structures depending on the form, okay? Can different structures depending on the form? So for example, if we say, let's take for example what would be the affirmative form? The affirmative form of this verb tense. What would it be? Let's see. In a sentence, okay, using the present perfect continuous, which would be the first element in the structure of this verb tense? Yeah, first we will start with the subject, right? What would come then? What would come after the subject? Verb to be in the form. Exactly. So we'll have the verb to be, but in a, so we're going to have, we're going to use a different tense. So in this case, I have to say have, what would come after have? Not yet, not yet. No, no, no, no. Have been, have been plus, plus the verb in ING, right? Plus the verb in ING.


You may recall Bemidji started their woodback classic on Friday, but rain forced a little change in plans. The Lumberjacks ended up playing two games on Saturday, their game against Grand Rapids, which started on Friday, was made up today. More on that in a moment, but first, the Jack's first game Saturday was against Moorhead, and the star of this game was Otto Grimm. He pitched a one-hit shutout with nine strikeouts, second inning ties up Sterling Haifey, third inning, Jack steps down on strikes, scoreless game through the fourth, but Cole Taitro changes all that. Gapshot brings home Hunter Olsen, part of a two-run frame for Bemidji. In the fifth, Olsen's going to drive a run home this time. He sends one to the gap, gets Henry McCallochek home, three Zip Jacks in this one. That would prove to be the final score. Lumberjacks go to two and one against the Spuds this year. Grimm went all seven innings for the win. ... ... ... ... ...


OpenSource is a very important part of Sandisk's strategy and the reason being in all of the markets that we play in, OpenSource is a very, very key part of the ecosystem there. For example, in the data center space and in the cloud space, it's open stack, it's Linux and it's virtualization technologies. So it is a very important part of our strategy to work with the ecosystems in each of our markets. The Sandisk OpenSource strategy is, I always describe it as five C's. So it is consume OpenSource where it makes sense, contribute to OpenSource where we can add value, communicate what we're doing in OpenSource and with others in OpenSource. It's collaborate with other organizations and ecosystems in OpenSource. It's build competency inside the company in OpenSource. So it's all of these that lead to our Sandisk OpenSource strategy. Collaborative development is so critical today because the problems that we're all trying to solve are so large that no one person, no one company can do it by themselves. The other reason collaborative development is so important is that everything is interconnected. All of the components of the infrastructure of the internet or in hyperscale storage and compute and networking are all so interconnected that if we didn't collaborate, if we didn't work with each other across foundations, across organizations, across projects, across companies, I think we would have a very broken model. What's next for Sandisk in OpenSource is a continued focus on contributing back to the community. It's training our developers to be better maintainers of projects, to be able to contribute, to maintain the vibrancy of these projects, to engage people in these projects. And frankly, from my perspective to embed OpenSource into the strategy of the company in such a way that right from concept of a product or an idea or technology all the way to the launch of the technology, be cognizant of how we include OpenSource in our strategy, how we use it, how we contribute it, how we market it, how we engage with the community. It becomes a part of the strategy and the fabric of the company. So that's what's next on our journey.
