Did anyone find this useful or insightful? The whole thing reads like one giant text message, too. Sorry...I guess it just didn't do anything for me.

Tbh I was just happy to see a guy as we respected as Phil steele thinking highly of our trees....for whomever is also on mvcfans caseygarrisonforprez mentioned how chief fans don't like Phil...I think maybe that's cause caseygarrisonforprez has been too busy thinking about that sealed letter the chiefs got that was to be opened by the owners inviting them to the NFC west.

His magazine is an acquired taste. Once you read it yearly, you'll quickly catch on. In the front of his mag, he has a chart with what the abbreviations mean. It's actually very helpful with the way he does it because he pretty much looks at the last three years for each team in his analysis.

Acquired taste is probably right. I could generally understand what he was saying; it just made reading it all the more annoying when he abbreviated everything. It's like he tried to take information that should have spanned three pages and condensed it down to one by not typing out any words fully.

Despite all that though, I still didn't find it to be that helpful. I'll take it for what it's worth in that we were mentioned in the top 40 by someone very respected in his field. That's good enough for me.
