I was born a poor black child. I remember the days, sittin' on the porch with my family, singin' and dancin' down in Mississippi where I learned the three rules of life: Lord loves a workin' man; don't trust whitey; see a doctor and get rid of it.
The muse really isn’t here for me today. I should be typing something here that will make all of you want to read more, but I’ve got nothing. I am trying to figure out why my server isn’t serving up requests to the http/2 protocol even though the module is enabled and configured, so maybe that’s why my creative juices aren’t flowing. Could also be that I’m tired af. My youngest had his final football game of the year last night and I worked the chain gang for it. That took a lot out of me at my advanced age and weight. Whatever it is, I just don’t have the gumption to do anything more than the bare minimum for today’s CYST.
Nobody nailed it this past week, but BP and I did secure enough points to take over first place from Raji, while Jmac and Curtis have tied him for second place. ASR and Nate did some stuff to get the bronze trophy. Even Gundy picked up a couple of points but Glove still sits at 0. He probably has heat stroke.

The above only represents games that involved the NFCN or NFCS. If you wish, the leader board for those who weren’t too “busy” to pick all the games is here. This only contains those of you who actually scored a point in CYST. Glove really sucks at CYST; probably won’t get a point all year. Want to see your name here? Do better and stop sucking.
YOU CAN SEE THE ‘ALL GAMES’ LEADER BOARD HERE!
Wondering why some of the names have a different background color? Well, that’s because of a fantastic feature of the CYST site. If you click on My Account on the top right of the CYST site (when you’re logged in), you will see my todo list for that page, but also a color picker. If you choose a color there (and click update), that color will be the background on the site in tables where your name appears.
No NFCN/S game tonight, but you still should go make you picks now. Tonight is Miami at Houston. Remember last week when it was Denver at Arizona and I said that it could be worse? Well, here you go. Really, get on over to the CYST site and make your picks before you forget. Go, go make your picks. How do you get to the site so that you can pick games? Well, that’s a good question. If only there was a uniform resource locator in the form of a hyperlink.
DON’T FORGET TO MAKE YOUR PICKS FOR THIS WEEK’S GAMES
