Did you get that thing I didn't send you? Consider this an alternative "AFL Beat" that will mainly focus on the games I watched/tracked this weekend (and I make no promises of doing this on the reg). Keep in mind that I watch these games post hoc on the WatchAFL app,

As may be known 'round these parts, LitreCola is a generous man with a particular M.O.--anything he ships to a rando 'Murrican is accompanied by a Big Turk (or Big'R Turk in some cases). Recently, he was kind enough to ship me some Canadian Maple Whiskey along with some snaxx,

For many fantasy football players that aren't me, this is a huge week. And for many real football players that aren't in northern California, it's an even yuuuger week.
