Hello and welcome back! I hope everyone had a lovely bye week; I spent mine drinking dark beers by a fire at a wedding in middle-of-nowhere Massachusetts and it was awesome. Much like the creeping chill of winter, the back half of the 2023 season is upon us. Let’s take some stock and level set expectations for where this train is headed.
First off, we’re where we should be according to pre-season predictions. It’s easy to get caught up (myself heavily included) in the weekly ups and downs, but from a total season perspective there’s not much reason for either elation or anguish.
