Homeostasis: 2024 in Review

They give out high level grades to the players, coaching staff and front office. Then they give out MVP, Unsung Hero and Most Disappointing Awards to the players for all of 2024. Finally they review their awful preseason and mid-season predictions.

Also, Ben is really sorry about the dog story. He'll never let that happen again.
