    I work in grocery. I have not gotten sick. My fellow employees have not gotten sick. If the virus were even remotely as contagious as its being presented as, why haven’t entire store staffs who come into contact with hundreds of people per day, thousands per week, all falling ill in mass nationwide?

    Henry Gale has been bumped. He hasn't lost a pick. However, he is now choosing last in the first round.

    Winston is on the clock. Your pick.

    Yup. Was Creed 2 or Widows for me. Went with the movie that I think will catch some best picture possibilities.

    I still can't believe I was one pick away from getting The Grinch in the second round, which I had in the top 3 of my wishlist. Damn you, Duke!

    Helps that Lazlo's first two picks are super questionable - the first Ralph movie only made $189 in it's entire run. The Nutcracker is also a huge question mark.

    Wreck It Ralph will cap no worries. Nutcracker is one of those movies where I simply have no idea what it will do and I'm happy to just let other people deal with it. The same went for Spider-Man Into the Spiderverse, Bumblebee and Dark Phoenix.

    Super questionable is a great way to sum up my strategy in these games.

    The last Transformers didn't even get to $175 in its entire run. Somehow, I think people are tired of that series. And I believe this new one is more kid-friendly than anything.

    Although I think, THINK, people are realizing the DC Movies are pretty terrible, Wonder Woman aside.

    I'm just now looking at the numbers for The Lorax and I think you're right. I should have taken it.
