When I was fresh out of college, I used to blog about my uncomfortable habits, as a Jedi mind trick of sorts, to keep myself in check. Essentially, the idea was to write about my weight or my habits that I wasn’t digging. Post it, go back, read it, hold myself accountable, and then (hopefully) change. So with that in mind …
I’ve been doing way too much stress eating lately, but my hope is that if I tell myself that I can power through this by typing it out on a computer, come back to reading it at some point later, then change my ways, I’ll be better for the entire experience. Let’s roll. (Michael: Amen, brother. It’s been tough to stem the extra drinking and snacking out of sheer boredom and anxiety during this quarantine. You got this.)

The Rams are spending $74M so they can have Jared Goff & not have Todd Gurley & Brandin Cooks on their roster.
They're eating $38M in dead cap between Gurley ($20.2M) & Cooks ($17.8M).
And they are spending a $36M cap hit on Goff (#1 most in NFL).
