Some questions/feedback received to date:

Question/Feedback: Thumbs up to the “table” in the Current Situation sections. Likes the 1 sentence summary.

Response: Thanks, will keep that as a feature.

F: Everyday emails are too much.

R: Agreed. During the “launch” and season preview decided to send one every day leading up to the season. Will reconsider that next year. Currently settled on 2x per week (Tuesday & Friday AM) for consistent newsletters with “breaking news” as needed.

F: Fewer “grammatical/spelling errors” would be nice.

R: Yep. Not a strength and have not been using an “reviewer” or “editor”. Will effort to clean those up, but I suspect if you read close enough you will continue to find som. 🙃 

F: More Twitter/X links, fewer YouTube links. Would prefer not to have the YouTube commercials.

R: Agreed. Will only leverage YouTube when the video cannot be found elsewhere and its one we want to add.

Q: How do I share the CleanSheet with others.

R: This would be much appreciated. Currently we are only going to grow via word of mouth and through Twitter/X page.
