but thanks again to all the board draftniks. Sheesh, you guys put in da work!! I know I couldn't begin to come close, and I luvs the draft. Have loved it for more than 50 years now.

As the young kids used to say, you guys rock!!

And please forgive me if I forget anyone in my Oscar-winning speech here, cuz my old brain has been under assault lately. But here goes:

I want to thank, in no particular order . . . . Deadpool, Alyo, his bro, Flip, Leafnose and all the little people who added their own takes, except for Ram43, whose incessant and toxic pessimism about all things Rams just casts a terrible dark cloud over everything whenever he's here. And not. Cuz it LINGERS!!

Yeah, thanks for the semi-intervention, Billy.

I know I need to work on my pessimism. Heck, maybe even therapy will be necessary, I dunno.

I hope to at least reduce it below a toxic level in the future. I am clearly a work in progress, but I’m gonna really try. Lol.

It's a really important first step in the process -- that you recognize your issues, Ram43. Good on you. Without that, there's no progress of any kind along the road to Enlightenment. And it's a very long road, to be sure, as Enlightenment happens to be this little town in the Tibetan Himalayas, incorporated in the early 19th century, I believe. I was there recently with my best friends Myrddin Emrys and Yoda the Wise, and we were all talking about the Rams, and the board, and how it often breaks down along positive and negative lines.

After several mugs of strong mead -- at least that's what I think we were drinking -- and some puffs of local pipe tobacco -- at least that's what I think we were smoking -- we came to the conclusion that you were most in need of a trip to this place of spiritual oneness with all things blizzard-like. Not because you're necessarily in need of more snow and such. But because it has a way of clearing the mind and helping us all focus on good things, like the Rams winning the Super Bowl and Dia Lupa saying yes to my suave and subtle advances.

In short, Let it Be, Rams43. Let it Be.
