@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
My Favorite Tweeter Open
Remember though, Celtics in 7!
Excellent point! One of these NBA stars had an 8-inch growth spurt after his sophomore season in high school. The other pictured below simply just wanted it more.
This sounds like we might need to have a Weekly Debate to settle the score.
I firmly concur with My Favorite Tweeter’s assessment here, who is a fellow Swiftie like myself. Everybody’s Favorite Dave didn’t indicate Taylor’s Version on her old work so we can all assume he is Team Scooter Braun. Disgusting. All Too Well at 15 is an American travesty. What has happened to the once proud man who claimed to have “invented the internet” and then shortly after Week to Week Notes endorsed him for ‘24, changed his bio to just Barstool Sports?
Hey @YouTheReader, I’m not insinuating anything other than Old Man Dave has gone senile. @StoolieYouTheReaders is it cool that I said all that?Cause I know this is Delicate. It sucks knowing that Karma is going to come around to bite me tomorrow. 🫤
@MyFavoriteTweeter Thanks as always for keeping your eyes and ears on the pulse of pop culture sir. 🫡🤝
Somerset Patriots Scouting Report
5/16 ‘23
It was a great night at TD Bank Stadium for Martian awareness night where the Somerset Patriots defeated the reading Fightin’ Phils in a good football game, 14-10. The alien himself, Jasson Dominguez, lived up to expectations going 3-6 with a homer for his 5th bomb of the year. Austin Wells, the Yanks 1st round pick in ‘20, followed suit with the same stat line 3-6 and a homer that got the offense going for the team in the 4th, also his fifth of the year. Third baseman Tyler Hardman went deep for his 6th on the year and Trey Sweeney set the table at the top of the lineup. Sweeney reminds me of a lefty LeMahieu and Wells reminds me of a young Nick Johnson for some comparison's sake. Dominguez definitely has All-Star/MVP potential but I’ll settle for a Bobby Abreu comparison. I’m not quite there yet to call him the next mantle like some others have done in the media. Starting for the Patriots was Luis Severino, the Yankees’ number 2/3, who had a shaky but hopeful outing in a rehab performance. The Yankees figure to slot him into the rotation this weekend and they sure need him pitching like he did in 2018. Overall, TD Bank Park is definitely a recommended place to watch a ball game. The atmosphere was great and the future looks bright for the Yankees.
@HoopsFanInsider knows more than just one sport. Much appreciated, great work as always! 🫡🤝

He’s good I’m glad they kept him. I think he’s gonna have a good year.
I can’t believe this is real !!
No way this can be true?
I have a hard time seeing how they can pull that off
Me too. Also didn’t think they’d have Aaron Rogers as their QB.
True. Also, Aaron Judge: good hitter.
Peekaboo!!!
Volpe is a winner. I don’t care if he has 30 errors this year. He’s a good player he’s gonna be a really really good player.
7 homers is no joke at this point in the season
I saw they are 1/4 of the way through the season. 28 dingers for a rookie it would be awesome
The Yankees spanking the crybaby Blue Jays in their stadium is fun.
5/19 ‘23
Judge just hit a home run.
He is a freak
Reds uniforms are a bit different but better than the Rangers city editions
Terrible but yea better than Rangers.
5/20 ‘23
Hicks = DFA
Haha I had to question if they were on at 4 and I immediately thought they were playing, thought he might’ve made an error 😂
Wow
WTF ??? Terrible ump, and maybe a worse dude.
Yikes!
🤡-show !!
Haha you never see that, pretty bad
Judge peekaboo really has them triggered.
Our new left fielder.
Dude rakes
24 yrs old. Time to let him play
He allowed 7 stolen bases a couple of days ago. I don’t think he’s a catcher
Was holding out hope he could catch but true, even if it’s LF and he catches every 10 days as 3rd guy, it’s time.
DH, LF, C, PH. Let’s roll.
Could be a Rizzo replacement in a couple of years too. Although the way Rizzo is playing that’s obviously not happening anytime soon
“Atta boy Goody”
Really “Good” curveball
Jokic is a freak. He’s like if you combined Dirk with Magic Johnson.
Haha good comp
He makes no sense. He’s chubby, slow, and 7 ft tall but he also plays point guard.

*Quick Interjection on Week to Week Notes’ Favorite Golfer*
For 76.
Awesome!
Don't play for money
Haha, he’s going to smoke us. He’ll be giving us lessons by the 3rd hole 😂 (@YankeeFanInsider we’ve been warned.)
*Back to Yanks & Jets*
This isn’t good
He really needs to get over himself
Just play good - but mostly just play. U know how many guys would kill to play anywhere on the line for an NFL team. The dude hasn’t played in 2 years and it’s the Jets’ fault?
It’s ridiculous
Yeah, it’s not a great look. Some of the young guys have to realize when you give quotes like that with Rodgers around it’ll be a headline nationally. Wouldn’t be great if he was saying these sorts of things on the same old jets either, but now it’s like c’mon man get with the program.
6-2 - let’s see if they can keep rolling

I kinda like ‘Melo, but I thought he retired like 3 years ago, and he was desperate to be the type of player that people would care about his retirement (not sure he was).
Haha I like Melo too, but it is kind of random considering he was in and out of the league the last few years. He had a great career, just thought he already retired last year tho.
Lefty center fielder from Korea that apparently the Yankees have been scouting a lot.
For this year or next?
I think it would be for next. Bader is a free agent so it could make sense
Although I do like Bader
That thread compares him to Johnny Damon with a strong arm and more pop. I would sign up for that
Me too. Lebron is going nuts. 29 points in 1st half and I don’t think he sat yet. He’s old and annoying - but still very very good.
He’s unreal but I’m not surprised at all. It kind of stinks that all the playoff series are so one-sided, but maybe the Lakers could make it interesting with a win here.
I hope they lose and he retires - will be a little bigger deal the the ‘Melo thing.
He’s probably going to want to do a retirement tour tho. Would be pretty cool if it was abrupt and he went out with Melo.
He’s gotta wait to play with Bronny
I don’t think Bronny is that good. So will be interesting to see who wants a broken-down Lebron and his not-so-good son.
I agree it’ll be interesting
5/23 ‘23
So far Rodgers and Lazard have both left the field with trainers. It’s our first practice
Not great
Zach getting some extra reps - making Arron’s life hell. All good.
GB guys just need to get accustomed to the Jersey ground, no big deal
Cool article. I always thought he was a next-gen Jeter.
Judge !!
Let’s goooo
That was a TERRIBLE pitch!
Thought the same thing
Btw, very cool article. That’s why he’s the best
Judge & Volpe, Yankees classic. @YesNetwork getting it going
Post-game question to Volpe: “Why do you think Judge is so clutch?”
Volpe: “Because he’s the best player in the world”.
So awesome
Whoa !!
That’s awesome, rather hear this than the everybody’s in the best shape of their life talk
I assume last year Zach didn’t have the ability to do so and Flacco didn’t care, I bet as great as the young guys are - there was nobody to keep them in check. And I think Rogers is letting them know they haven’t accomplished anything yet. I love it.
That is awesome
5/24 ‘23
Feel like if it’s a trade they might be getting back a pretty good arm, also never opposed to letting the kids play
Giolito?
Joe G roasting Gary - ouch.
I think they should trade Gleybor and let this kid play. And if they trade Perazza instead it better not be for some bullpen arm who everyone forgets in a year.
Gleyber is the 3rd best hitter on the team right now
Good time to get some value
I just can’t imagine that Peraza is going to be a better player than Gleyber in the next 2 years. I’d rather him come up and play 3rd, and we DFA Donaldson
Gleyber is literally our lead-off hitter right now!
I think he will be, but I don’t know. And I would do the Donaldson thing if/when they DFA him. What a waste of roster spots (him and Hicks) and an embarrassment for Cashman.
Gleybor !!!
Your guy!
IKF cycle game?
Always liked him.
He’s actually looked really good the past week or so. He’s a nice bench piece
I think Gleyber heard u today Dad.
Let’s go !!!
What channel is the game on?
Amazon, annoying
I wish I hadn’t asked. Yeesh.

Critiquing Critics - The Departed
I mean besides the fact that the movie is based on the true story out of Boston, there really aren’t many flaws in this film. Robert DeNiro was originally supposed to be Frank Costello. Although loosely based on a true story about Whitey Bulger but it was also simultaneously a remake of Hong Kong’s Internal Affairs. 50% of the film’s budget went to the All-Star Cast. I’m a huge Scorsese guy, what could critics have to say?
Hmmm, I would put Goodfellas over The Departed so Christopher you might be on to something Orr you’re just being a hater because Internal Affairs scored a 95% on Rotten Tomatoes - sort of an unfair standard.
Okay @YouTheReader: I was surprised that: Charlotte would use two colons in the same sentence. Sorry for being the punctuation police.
Socialist regimes claim to be appalled by the violence in life and in their own films, yet continue to glamorize sociopaths.
Would The Departed be better as a 1 season 14-episode TV Show? Maybe, but that would probably be difficult to convince that All-Star cast with all their scheduling conflicts.
I share a similar Outlook on the film as Namrata, the generational stars generated electricity.

My favorite Dave Matthews song. (In reference to Sports&Life 5/20 ‘23 “Where Are You Going”).
How is that ball just sitting there on the cusp?
The thing was wiggling its way in.
Rae’s Creek effect.
Allen’s Creek at Oak Hill. I want a Creek named after me.
😂😂😂
***’s Creek
or M*D*****’s Creek
**’ ****’s Creek?
I prefer the former
Just ***’s Creek.
Or maybe a steam.
Nah f*** that a creek is more rugged than a stream.
