We are now at our mid-season break. Week 9 will be simmed on either Thursday, January 4th or 11th. Have a great holiday season for the rest of the year everyone!
---

I see Dan Bailey wants to make a case for Kicker of the Year.

Better luck next time Ranlom.
---

Who wants to go into the holiday on a depressing note? I know I do!

I was bored so I whipped this up real quick, this is a meaningless breakdown of all the players on the injury report in terms of what the injury is. They are in 2 sets of data:
1) Which part of the human body it is
2) What kind of injury it is
Full disclosure, the count of the parts of the body is probably off by 1 as both sets of data added up to 98 and 97 respectively, and I felt it more likely I miscounted the first set, so I just arbitrarily took one from one of the areas. HERE WE GO!

What areas were injured?:
Leg - 36 (this includes foot injuries and all digits attached)
Arm - 29 (this includes hand injuries, and all digits attached, and shoulder injuries)
Body - 26 (basically everything else; Hip, ribs, back, tailbone, etc)
Head - 6 (concussions and facial injuries)

What types of hurts were they?
Tissue - 52 (this includes tears both partial and complete, sprains, dislocations, pulls, and strains, all of both muscles and cartilage)
Bone - 42 (Breaks and fractures)
Other - 3 (Concussions)

Woo niners hitting a stride before their bye

now just need to make ground in the division
---

As GM, i have to take the blame for this home winless streak and put it on the fans. They obviously don't have the enthusiasm needed to support a team on the playoff bubble.

*bows* I'm not worthy!

Listen, I may be one of the originals and I may have 2 super bowls to my name, but I havent done diddly squat since S3 no need to be so deferential.

"eddv beats 3 level 9 cpu teams by doing absolutely nothing"

Throwing it out there that I am open to trades for picks or younger players as this season is likely done for me now.

Also unrelated but just came up in conversation with KCF last night. @VeryInsane basically your entire starting O-line is out injured long-term (which is really unlucky) and your back-ups are all in the mid-low 70's which is probably contributing to your QB play being so bad (Bradford leads the league in turnovers by a lot). There's plenty of people in free agency you could shore your O-line up with on 1 year rental deals since you have the cap room.

I was fully aware of it for me, season's likely done for me cause my O-Line just got completely wrecked. >_>

That said I did make a few moves for some rentals since I have cap room and need some players
---

Speaking of trading blocks, I am looking for intrresting offers for the services of Johnathon Stewart.

My top priority is a comparable talent at linebacker or draft picks.
---

It's great that my guys are making plays but can they stop injuring themselves to do so?

First Pierre Thomas gives his life for a couple touchdowns now Iloka is done till the postseason (which is still a possibility halfway through the year, improvement!) after a two INT game. Bah.

Which reminds me, please put Thomas on IR.

Browns sign C Al Johnson, G John Simonitis, G Adam Stenavich, and OT Anthony Collins to 1 year deals.

Pats sign G Mike Otto to a 1 year deal.

Bumpers
---

Merry Christmas guys!!
---

I forgot to mention that between the preseason and when I simmed Week 1, I had a dream that the Vikings would beat the Jaguars in the Super Bowl. At the halfway point, it's more likely to happen in real life than in here, but it has better chances than Emerald's dream of the Panthers beating the Patriots in the SB!
---

I mean, I did beat them...just not in the superbowl

Bump

I'm considering resuming the 4th as I can wrap up the regular season at the end of the month. Then, we will likely take a little longer break between the end of the regular season and simming of the playoffs
---

Whatever works best for you man!
---

Do you plan on doing a live sim? If so, I'll be able to make my grand regular season debut.
---

Live sim yes
---

whatever works best for Tange
---

bumpo for more lions wins
---

Oh god, it just occurred to me that I am the Patriots of this league (aside from only one SB win). Everyone should probably root for my failure.
---

Am I the Giants?
---

I am not as familiar with the real life Giants as I am with the Dolphins
---

Well the giants were 3-13 this year so...
