Well… I shipped the Big Albatross!!!
Making my own model and rankings felt foolish with the amount of variance in golf, but it was all worth it!
Shoutout @SpikeWeek for the Draft IQ, @EstablishTheRun for your rankings and @OdjHoops for being the 🐐
NEW: It's now more lucrative to have a losing sports team than a championship team.
We examined the Boston Red Sox to see how private equity and cost cutting invaded sports.
In this era, teams want to sell good players for profit more than they want to have a good season.
Went through all of my Gauntlet pods and got an average of about 2 dead teams per pod, I think it’s playing at about a 1/4 this week!
I have 18/30 alive (with a live SB matchup) which somewhat falls in line with that
I’m going to do a full write-up as a reflection on my gauntlet process later this week, but drafting with the mindset of a SEA bye was a staple of it.
Would suck to lose these awesome teams without a chance!
