"There is a greater purpose...that purpose is team. Winning, losing, playing hard, playing well, doing it for each other, winning the right way, winning the right way is a very important thing to me... Championships are won by teams who love one another, who respect one another, and play for and support one another."

Quote from: T200 on November 29, 2023, 07:59:17 AMThank Ed!  :P  :P

I actually had a convo with someone offline yest talking about how it felt like the game has gotten easier recently. It's as if that guy called the NYT, told them what I said, and they got insulted haha.

Now I've got a chip on my shoulder for tomorrow!

The last two days for me have been all about either getting three obvious words that go together and not figuring out the fourth easily, or having there be more than four and struggling to eliminate one or two. After blowing up yesterday, today I got through it in the end, but it took some time.

The yellow was obvious to me. The other three took a while.

In all fairness, the one I got last really probably should have been the least challenging one.
