@YouTheReader we’ll skip the whole intro paragraph and get to the point. Whatever is on your mind, sports, music, movies, shows, life, etc. There are so many of you die-hard fans of all things who know what you're talking about, so this Thursday spot could only help. I love Thursday's spot because in a way it’s a reset of the week in Week to Week Notes.
@YouTheReader your default setting for His or Her Words, Not Mine is a team/sport/topic “fan insider.” All you have to do is send over a resume, cover letter, a form of ID, and 3 references. If you wish to come up with your own @Name, I’ll run with that so that other @YouTheReaders could also start to get to know your style. Either way, I won’t tell no one your name. Unless you want your name on Week to Week Notes.
Green Door Open
Hi Thomas. To answer your question about the Green Door. You mentioned it in Apr 26 Pint, Pen, and Paper. The historic James Brown House. Towards the end, it mentions the Green Door. You would love to get into all those places😀. (See…I read everything!!) ❤️
Wow!! Haha I forgot that, great catch!! ❤️
It was the end of Rookie season…that’s what was on your mind!
I didn’t put the two together, wow haha thank you as always. ❤️
(@YouTheReader remind me to edit this out so as a writer all of this was meant on purpose and I look brilliant. Only kidding, sometimes I’m lucky! Thank you @Grandma ❤️)
NY Yankees & Jets Talk
5/4 ‘23
I saw Grandma and Grandpa today - unfortunately for them, they do have Amazon (they thought that was funny).
(@YouTheReader this was in reference to one of the Yankee fan insiders hoping that our grandparents didn’t have to watch the Yanks lose. Keep up.)
Jessica Alba just casually Tweeting to the Jets starting Corner and Quarterback.
Not a big deal, just the Jets CB1 casually responding back to Jessica Alba.
The Jets are becoming cool.
Very cool !!

Best St. John’s moment considering in a ‘chip?
The stare-down at the crowd is great haha
The dude standing up is my friend Pete - all in for sure !!
So awesome
What a disaster
This is very bad
I hope that’s true. But he’s also hitting .153 in AA right now.
They prob know teams gonna stink so need a reason for fans to watch.
If they trimmed the roster of all the guys that we all know stink and brought up the kids nobody would blame them for it with all the injuries.
And who knows they could outperform expectations like the team did in ‘17.
Basically true - and pathetic.

*Quick Intermission family party. All our negative Yankee talk was off the record.*
5/7 ‘23
*I sent the GIF below right before the Yankees blew a 6-0 lead.*
Cole just blew a 6-0 lead
Come on?
What (@YouTheReader I was in between pints of Guinness in the City and missed this debacle.)
Yup. Just gave up a 3 run homer to tie the game

Sad
Happy for him he’s getting a shot.
Also saw this, doubt Jomboy would make it up so maybe the front office is pissed. Either way not a great start in Pinstripes.
Disaster

I was hoping we’d have the Cowboys on Thanksgiving, but this is pretty cool
I’m kind of surprised it took them this long to think of playing on Black Friday. Maybe because it’s in the middle of college football? Pretty cool.
We have somehow become the coolest team in the NFL
Is Bader the 2nd best player on our team?
He may be on steroids. Hahaha
Maybe Bader is 3rd best.
My Favorite Tweeter
Very big of My Favorite Tweeter to put his Nets fandom aside to attack @NetsFrequent who is clearly a biased journalist. Someone has got to keep #NetsTwitter in line and My Favorite Tweeter is the person for the job 🫡.
*LeBron’s response to this Tweet 30 seconds later*
I think LBJ was checking his phone in between TV timeouts.
I was watching the game and thinking the exact same thing. Lonnie Walker ended up starring in Game 4, dropping 15 points in the 4th Quarter of the Lakers victory. The Lonnie Walker game
Critiquing Critics - Dazed and Confused
One of my favorite movies of all time. Dazed and Confused is one of those cult classics where every time you rewatch it, you can pick up something new or different every single time. All the characters in this film are perfect because each and every one of them has their own strengths & flaws. Not much goes on in the film. It’s pretty simple. A failed keg party that turns into a party at the Moon Tower. That said, the ending “stuck in this place” drunken speech on the football field is pretty iconic if you ask me.
Well, @JamesBernardinelli, Dazed and Confused was just Noted on Week to Week Notes. Groundbreaking stuff.
…It was a movie about kids in the 70s…
Again, this is a film set in the 70s, should they have just been sitting around singing kumbaya? Well… I guess they could have done that, much less interesting though.
Alright, alright, alright, enough of the negativity. These 4 Rotten Tomato Reviews were like picking through a needle in a haystack of positive reviews.
I concur, Larry!
Wow, when even Roger Ebert is on board you know the film is a masterpiece.
I couldn’t encapsulate it better if I tried!
Right on cue, Chuck!
Guinness Fan Insider
Glad someone said it… kidding 🤣 @Guinness…
On another note for your Drake bit, I remember he did a post-game performance after the ‘13 Jordan Brand Classic - a game where Joel Embiid was a relatively unknown prospect and it got his name out there. It’s crazy to see how far people can come in 10 years. Now Embiids MVP and Drakes the biggest artist in the world. No way he’d do a post-game concert for a high school game in a quarter-full arena.
