Wanted him in the draft I’m doing. Took Agustin Ramirez cuz I wanted to lock up a decent catcher and liked the power/speed combo. Was hoping Busch might fall back to me in the next round. Nope. He went the very next pick. Oh well. I have Soderstrom so I’m good at 1B but wanted Busch w/Tyler at OF.

Nothing brings families together like huntin for some eggs.

I covered the #Packers from 1990-1999. Bob Harlan rarely got the credit for the team’s return to Super Bowl glory during the ‘90s nor did he seek it out. He let others do the work he hired them to do. He was great, selfless man who helped orchestrate Green Bay’s incredible renaissance. RIP.

Last four picks: 10. Devin Williams 11. Agustin Ramirez 12. Konnor Griffin 13. Andy Pages Took my first closer with Williams, who I’m banking on a bounce back season. Ramirez gives me a nice power/speed combo at a soft C position. Griffin is the fun pick so we’ll see if that pans out.

Can. Not. Wait.

When you're gonna draft Konnor Griffin at 118 overall. #Pirates

D-Led was on the #Packers beat for a time when I covered them back in the day before he moved onto Atlanta. A terrific reporter and a warm, funny and terrific guy who was always a joy to be around. I’ve enjoyed having him on my Sirius show many times the past several years. He’s earned retirement

I’m pretty happy so far. Turang is the one pick I wasn’t super gung ho about. I debated doubling up on SPs with Woo or Gilbert but I figured since it’s a 10-team league there would be enough SP and I could afford to wait. Plus, grabbing Turang locked in a weak position plus SBs & some pop.

Mike will join our illustrious group of Hall of Famers - including yours truly (OK not everyone is all that illustrious) - when he’s inducted into the NFBC Hall of Fame at the Rio in Las Vegas on Saturday March 21 before the Main Event drafts at 11 am PT.

💫Are you playing in the NFBC Main Event? Here's everything you need to know about it from the newest member of the Hall of Fame, Mike Mager @ftnfantasy.com ftnfantasy.com/mlb/preparin...

Hall was literally available for an extremely affordable price at the trade deadline last season. All of these teams sitting here now wondering what the F just happened only have themselves to blame. Giving up a third for a RB of Hall’s talent is nothing.

My team now through 9 rounds: 1. Witt 2. Caminero 3. Chourio 4. Hunter Brown 5. Turang 6. deGrom 7. Merrill 8. Bradish 9. Soderstrom

From a pure talent perspective, this shouldn’t even be debatable. Murray clearly has his flaws but he is extremely talented. If he can be put in the right situation with competent coaching it is entirely possible we’ll see a much better version of the player than we’ve seen to date.

I’m a #Packers fan watching the #Vikings with interest. I’ll be very concerned if they: Trade for Mac Jones. I’ll be quite interested if they: Sign Kyler Murray. I’ll laugh my f’ng ass off: If they sign Kirk Cousins again.

For today's FBT Newsletter, I wrote about 30-plus players who saw their price rise or fall in NFBC leagues from January to February, with thoughts on whether you should buy their new price and more: www.cbssports.com/fantasy/base...

Only doing two baseball leagues this year. Started up the first one today in a Slow Draft. 10 teams so everyone will have loaded rosters. From the 3 hole first three picks: 1. Witt 2. Caminero 3. Chourio

#Commanders have plenty of cap space, have a huge TE need with Ertz coming off a major injury and TE is a big part of their passing game. Goedert would be a great fit AND a great way to smack down the #Eagles in the process.

On my Sirius show years ago, I mocked the #Vikings for overpaying for Cousins and said they’d be stuck in NFL purgatory until they got rid of him. I got blasted on the other site for being an idiot who knew nothing about football because Cousins was a huge QB upgrade. Man I need to find that tape

Absolutely baffling. He’d be top of my list if I was an NFL GM.

Hosting a "BeatBrent" NFBC Online Championship league on Wednesday March 4 at 8pm.

Seth Rogen accepting Catherine O’Hara’s posthumous award for Outstanding Actress in a Comedy Series for The Studio #ActorAwards

No offense but how was this an upset? I’m not following any betting sites so I guess Chalamet was the “favorite” but Jordan’s performance was truly terrific. He played 21/2 unique characters in “Sinners” and did so effortlessly. He’s a deserving winner.

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again - Ryan Coogler is the new Spielberg. People who watch films appreciated his genius immediately. Just like those of us who first saw “Duel” all those years ago appreciated Spielberg then. It’s up to the Academy to catch up to all of us now.

Special shout outs to the Casting Directors for both films as well: Sarah Finn - “Black Panther” Francine Maisler - “Sinners”

Top 3 right now. Easily. Hasn’t made a bad film yet. Brings emotional depth, complexity and passion to every story he creates regardless of genre. Plus, he’s just an incredibly genuine person. Watch every interview with him that you can. He’s just a damn good guy.

Kyler takes plenty of heat but I count seven teams where he’d be an upgrade at QB. There should be a decent market for him once he’s released.

I’m not a huge Josh McDaniels fan, but everything else on this list absolutely screams #Patriots.

NFL GMs: “No thanks I’ll keep the 5th and draft a RB who has a 95% chance of being worse than David Montgomery is.”

A fifth-round pick is chumps change for a player as good as Monty still is.

I know. And I’m all for Willis getting everything he can get. But … I just think the NFL’s salary structure is so completely out of whack. Willis should not be making three times what CMC will make. That’s patently absurd on every level imaginable.

If Malik Willis gets more than $30 million a year, it’s reasonable to suggest Jaxon Smith-Njigba should get at least $100 million a year. Dear NFL GMs: Please get your salaries in check.

Begin your countdown until John Oliver is forced to resign.

There are three mid-tier 1B I’m currently targeting based on affordability: Vinnie Pasquantino Tyler Soderstrom Spencer Torkelson Of the three, Torkelson keeps coming in with the worst projections for this season and I’m not sure I agree that should be the case.

Don’t worry Aaron, nobody will save this clip and re-post it several times next season. Nope. No chance of that happening at all. You’re good.

Konnor Griffin currently has an ADP of 191 in the @rotowire.bsky.social Online Championship in The NFBC. So he’s still just a flyer in our high-stakes drafts. But his draft stock bears watching as we move deeper into Spring Training.

Alonso in the three hole. I like that better than seeing him batting second which he did earlier in the week.

People have forgotten how good this guy was.

Helter Skelter.

I’ll let you know what I find out about the crimes I’ve committed.

Shane Black’s kinda freaked out it’s not a Christmas story.

I’m particularly intrigued by Mike Trout given his affordable price in drafts and auctions right now. I’m gonna talk about the future Hall of Famer on my Sirius show tonight. #Angels
