Reto de Lectura Rory Gilmore

Sé que llego tarde a este reto de lectura pero nunca me había animado a tomarlo, lo descubrí hace años no recuerdo donde y ahora que me topé con el de nuevo en  BlackWhite Read Books y queria intentarlo.

Gilmore Girls fue una gran parte de mi adolescencia vi todos los capítulos más de una vez y me identificaba con Rory, su amor por la lectura y su vida cotidiana, es una serie que siempre vivirá en mi corazón y es más que una serie para mí, me enseño muchas cosas y me ayudo con muchas más.

El reto de lectura consiste en leer todos los libros que Rory leyó a lo largo de la serie, los cuales son muchos, entre ellos existen muchos clásicos como Alicia en el País de las Maravillas y El Diario de Anna Frank, la mayoría de libros en esta lista no están siquiera en mi lista TBR la cual es otra de las razones por las que quiero intentarlo, la lista consiste de 339 libros por lo que no me pondré propósitos irreales como leerlos todos durante este año (2016), en dos años o en cinco, simplemente me propondré terminar esta lista algún día y divertirme con ella.

The Kevin Cadle Trophy 2017 - Week 3 Recap

Week 3 was a crazy week for many reasons. Donald Trump urged NFL team owners to fire any player who kneels for the anthem and players responded in audacious fashion. Four games came down to the last 30 seconds of play; briefly curtailing the perception the league’s quality of play has taken a downswing. Brady mounted another 4th quarter comeback to squeak past the Texans. Golden Tate’s non touchdown lead to a 10 second run off to end the game and a heartbreaking loss for the Lions. Eagle’s rookie kicker Jake Elliott (yes, more kicker chat) hits a miracle 61 yard field goal to sink the Giants comeback and the pathetic unsportsmanlike conduct call on Von Miller sets up the Bills for a chip shot to put them out of sight against the Broncos. Sadly the Kevin Cadle Trophy didn’t see this level of drama as 5 of the 6 games ended in a blowout and most contests were a forgone conclusion by bedtime.

From an entire league of men on their knees to one fantasy owner. Here comes the week 3 recap.

Cyborg Justice tops the league at 3-0 after defeating Kent Exiles. GCT lose at the hands of Cecil Martin’s Mavericks and find themselves in a gulch of torturous despair and the sole owner of last place at 0-3. Going into the season GCT were the 2nd most consistent regular season team with a 0.586% winning percentage. Owner Lloyd is certainly on the hot seat and is surely the favourite for first coach fired this season. Wadstar Wildebeests could not defy their week 3 destiny as the curse continues to decay and fester, losing out to Rochester Jeffersons who also notched their first win. The Fail Marys bludgeoned Coolhand to fantasy death, beating them by an enormous 63.18 points. In the week’s big grudge matches the Cleveland Clowns finally got on the board taking down hated rival The Lynn Swann Crybabies and Uncle Sam’s Family Feedbag failed to get revenge against league overlord Dave’s Cliffe Woods Packers (much to the chagrin of the other league owners). Both were highly anticipated matchups which disappointed in week 3. Tight end continued to be a chasm of agonising sorrow and kickers once again decided at least one game.

Week 3 Stats, Stats & Milestones

Cleveland Clowns reaches 20 wins in regular season history.

Cyborg Justice starts out 3-0 for 3rd straight year. Only 4 teams have ever reached 4-0. Goodfellas (2014), The Lynn Swann Crybabies (2014) and Cliffe Woods Packers (2015).

Cecil Martin Mavericks rack up the highest score of the year so far with 126.50 points.

Matchups

Cyborg Justice (3-0) @ Wadstar Wildebeests (1-2) H2H Record: WILD 3-2 CYB

Although Cyborg Justice have started 2015, 2016 and 2017 3-0 they have never got to 4-0 in that time span. Will the curse relent this week for the Wildebeests or will bragging rights be at an all-time high? This matchup is historically terrible with the lowest H2H matchup average of the week (82.30). The Justice are a lowly 1-4 in week 4 games. In week 11 of 2015 the two teams clashed to produce the lowest winning score of all time. This is also a rematch of Fantasy Super Bowl IV where Wadstar Wildebeests triumphed and denied Cyborg Justice the chance to be a 2 time Super Bowl champ.

ABOVE: A pitiful winning score from Cyborg Justice.

Matt Prater travels to Minnesota for a dome game this week and the Vikings are giving up most points to kickers so far this season. Waiver adds Wendell Smallwood and Ryan Griffin will see the field this week in a situation sources are calling “Trustgate”. (Expect a dog fight in this one.)

ABOVE: Mark lies to Greg about playing waiver adds. The curse does things to a man.

Kent Exiles (2-1) @ Cecil Martin’s Mavericks (2-1) H2H Record: MAVS 3-1 KEX

History favours the Mavericks in this matchup and coming off the back of a huge win in week 3 Matt will be looking to cement his place as one of the league’s most consistent performers (0.557% regular win percentage).

Kent Exiles are still smarting after a devastating loss in week 3. Can George select the correct core from his dynamic selection of receivers in week 4 or will screams of “delete the league” echo across the league’s Whatsapp Monday morning?

Uncle Sam’s Family Feedbag (2-1) @ Coolhand (1-2) H2H Record: COOL 3-2 FBAG

With Kareem Hunt on pace to break Eric Dickerson’s rookie rushing record, spirits are high in the Feedbag camp for the first time since the Obama administration. Big Bad Bilal is back to make up this RB duo of death. Those F-Bags average a colossal 117.92 in week 4 games.

After week 1 Coolhand was looking like a franchise poised to make a playoff run. Now 1-2 an all too familiar pattern is forming for the 4th year team. Owner Luke may have to lean on the Oakland offence in the no fly zone, a scary proposition after the Raiders meltdown last week.

The Fail Marys (2-1) @ GCT (0-3) (BREWDOG’S GAME OF THE WEEK: Sponsored by Punk IPA) H2H Record: FAIL 5-5 GCT

A strange quirk of scheduling sees these two teams in their 11th meeting in only 5 seasons. The two met in week 11 of 2013 and produced the 6th highest scoring game in league history and the dubious honour of highest losing score ever (127.40). This is a must win game for GCT. All eyes will be on Todd Gurley who lit up the scoreboard last week.

ABOVE: Crushing defeat for GCT

Cleveland Clowns (1-2) @ Rochester Jeffersons (1-2) H2H Record: JEFF 3-1 CLE

Rochester Jeffersons leads the all-time series 3-1 as both teams try to get back on track after slow starts. NFL.com predicts a close game and there are sure to be floods of tears on Sunday from one of the owners. Both teams are coming off emotional wins and whoever settles into the game first takes this matchup.

Cliffe Woods Packers (2-1) @ The Lynn Swann Crybabies (1-2) H2H Record: LYNN 5-4 CWP

When these two titans of the league battled in week 4 of the 2015 season, it was to be forever known as “The Batting the Ball Game”. Another highly suspicious plot hatched by the league’s answer to Roger Goodell. The game ended Cliffe Woods Packers 66.76 – 66.22 The Lynn Swann Crybabies. CWP had the Seahawks D/ST who finished on 7.00 points. Please read the following link to see what happened at the end of the game. A highly controversial play which potentially could have swung this matchup. Revenge will be on the agenda for the Crybabies.

Week 4 is traditionally a high scoring week. Fire emojis are a certainty.

May all your labrums tear, Cyborg Justice
