As the #auctionbrief listener league champion, I was so stoked to get my new trophy to display at work courtesy @DrewDavenportFF. A great league and a great group to compete against. If you don’t follow Drew, I’d highly recommend it for FF advice and football law related content.

The Court in the Josh Jacobs case has now officially DENIED the permanent sealing of the record and the temporary seal has been vacated.

Can the NFL get the evidence now? Here's how it looks after today's decision.

@justinboone Good to see you back Boone. Sorry for your loss.

[Derek J. Thornton @bankingruns]

@AndyHolloway’s almost upset of the week looking real nice right now.

[Drew Davenport @DrewDavenportFF]

Josh Jacobs has pled No Contest to both of the misdemeanor charges in his case.

I have Court myself in 30 minutes, but let’s do a quick lunchtime #FFLegalUpdate on the situation.

[Drew Davenport @DrewDavenportFF]

With the news that Josh Jacobs moved up his initial appearance to 9/10, over two months earlier than anticipated, let's do an #FFLegalUpdate on what that does for his fantasy football value going forward.

It's a heavy draft weekend so I'll be as direct as I can.

@DrewDavenportFF Chad, sounds like something that’s going to take off. You may want to trademark that name and if you know a good lawyer they could probably help with that. Only thing they are good for nowadays anyways.

[Derek J. Thornton @bankingruns]

@DrewDavenportFF As the inaugural season champion if you need some help just ask next time. I’ve heard of this thing called a par sheet that I can show and it might give some guidance to a newb like you. 🤣 nice team overall!

[Drew Davenport @DrewDavenportFF]

I've had quite a few requests to break down the Tony Romo situation. I don't usually do non-fantasy related situations so I haven't gotten to it yet as it pulls me away from more pressing stuff.

However, it's an interesting and popular one, so let's do it.

@AndyHolloway @juliapapworth Always been a listener. I can listen on runs or while driving which is the only time I have to listen so watching/video isn’t likely to ever be an option for me.

[Derek J. Thornton @bankingruns]

@RogerSeheult @hubermanlab I think that’s the hard part and partially my point. Our time zones are likely too wide to make sense for everyone hence the fight. I’m on team don’t change over keep changing. I’m fine with either one because of my location and get everyone isn’t. Thx for the response.

@USMNT I’m still proud to be an American. Not what we wanted but hold your chin high gents.

[Derek J. Thornton @bankingruns]

USA!!! USA!!! USA!!! 🇺🇸 🇺🇸 🇺🇸 @USMNT @LumenField

[Derek J. Thornton @bankingruns]

@bray_chad @DrewDavenportFF I’m here for it no matter the cost!

[Derek J. Thornton @bankingruns]

@DrewDavenportFF @bray_chad I think we need a Chad vs Duke debate on the next Auction Brief. Also appreciate the not new new format of releasing 1/2 the show twice a week! Good choice Drew!
