My 2023 Summary:
First Quarter - Jan, Feb, Mar: Skyy Moore I had great potential but couldn't find my way and kept dropping the ball. Started to look a little deeper into where I was going and what I wanted to do for the rest of the year. Second Quarter - Apr, May, Jun: Drue Tranquill My past history of success got me back in the game. Started with a new team and things looked promising. Third Quarter - July, Aug, Sept: Charles Omenihu I was on a good team but was traded to a much better team with great potential. Very excited by the new opportunity. I had to sit out for a little bit and get trained and learn a brand new system. Once I got back in, things started well. Fourth Quarter - Oct, Nov, Dec: Lamaar Jackson Got a big raise, settled in and had incredible success. Teams MVP. The last quarter was one of the best in my life. Looking forward to 2024 as see bigger and better things. Expecting a Super Bowl.

Glad it’s over. This has been a terribly shitty year that has gone steadily downhill ever since the Super Bowl. Christmas sucked ass, too. The best thing that has come out of it is I am spending all of my spare time at the gym burning off all this stress and I’m in great shape. Here’s to next year being the beginning of less kicks to the balls.

Indifferent so Joe Flacco (who is still elite btw)
Nothing really great happened, nothing super bad happened either. I got a new roof on my house for $80 so that was kind of cool i guess. Last edited by George Liquor; 12-27-2023 at 08:29 AM.. |

I'll score this year a McConnell. Pretty good overall, but didn't finish well.

Had to go with Mitch. It was a pretty decent year for most of it (that I remember!) until I got laid off in October. But somehow Mitch is still employed.

I'm probably 2023 on-the-field Travis Kelce. Working my ass off, feel like I'm getting the shit kicked out of me all year long, but ultimately ended up with a season most guys would be happy with.
Picked 5. |

Santos, King Charles and McConnell are all parasites to me. Swift, Kelce, Friends cast, Flacco, Ivy league can live off past success. I'm just depressed now

I suppose I’d settle on a 7, which is probably where I’d be most years. And I’m fine with that.
Personally, I had my first child, which has been really fun and fulfilling. My relationships with my SO, family and friends are all relatively strong. My health and fitness remains really good/great. Haven’t had any major deaths near me. Oh, and the Chiefs won the Super Bowl. That’s pretty cool. Well, I have been feeling a bit lonely lately, I guess, though I think that’s just a natural side effect of aging. Still, I find myself reminiscing on my younger days when I was always hanging with friends, meeting new people, etc. quite a bit more than years past. Financially, it was sort of a rough year. I’m in a sales position and it was tough sledding in 2023 when compared to 2022. I’m a bit disillusioned with my current position/management and that has definitely taken a toll. Combine that with the current housing market being generally unaffordable and that is definitely some cause for concern. It could be far worse, though. Bills are all still paid on time and I’ve been able to save a good bit of money despite the new family addition. Just waiting on the right time to strike. All in all, life is pretty good. |

Not sure how to categorize this year.
I’m just …. happy. My brothers and sisters are all well. My children are doing well. My grandkids are beautiful. Can a person ask for more? Does a person (me) need more than that? |

9 here. Crushed over 100 Peloton rides, weighing the same as my wedding day, only debt is my mortgage, still having plenty of sex, daughter is the top scorer on her GABL team, kids are doing well in school.
Only thing keeping this from being a 10, is that it's all just too easy. We are definitely on cruise control and lacking anything of challenge or struggle in life, and for me that was a really important element post military life: climbing the career and education ladder. We've both hit our goals of work life balance and earnings, and I could see it getting stale. |

Better than 2022, but not great. No deaths this time around.
My sister's cancer returned, but they caught it early and were able to treat it. My parents are nearing 80, so there is always some nagging health issue. I've had to spend more time at their place helping out than any time in the recent past. Economy has affected my job. Took a pay cut for a stretch of the year, but avoided getting caught up in the layoff last spring. Things are moving along tenuously. My oldest has been dealing with some mental health struggles, but we are seeing some light at the end of the tunnel. I've been dealing with some illnesses for the last couple months. Nothing bad, just irritating and somewhat draining. I'd have thought that a couple rounds of antibiotics and steroids would have knocked it out, but it is still nagging me. Not all is bad though, my wife got a promotion and nice raise. My youngest has had a couple of big achievements and is figuring out his path to college. The Chiefs won the Super Bowl. The Royals look like they will field a competent team this year (at least better than bad). Cheers to everyone here. Hoping for a good 2024 for all. |
