We have met the enemy....

Hey, greetings!!!

Recovered from opening weekend yet???

Nah, me neither.... 14 straight hours in front of the Epic 60 inch LED will wear you out....

Ahhh, but the Football is back!

Congrats to ARDITA! A nice win...

Why does this feel like that scene in the Star Wars movie where the Emperor reveals that the Battle Station is FULLY OPERATIONAL?!??!?! Maybe it's just me.... Ardita, coming strong out of the gate....

Han Solo: "I've got a bad feeling about this...."

Yeah, no kidding....

We have some new players, as you may have noticed. Welcome to DJS26, STUDMONKEY, KCAMOSY, and SPARKY1987. I'm told they know NOTHING about Football, so, everyone just relax....

(They wouldn't lie to me, would they????)

DJS26 was making a play for it there.... I dunno....

Yeah, my picks were not great. I spent a little too much time imagining what *might* happen, instead of thinking about what might PROBABLY happen....


Anquan Boldin had a nice game against the Packers....

Now, can the Ravens go ahead and give back that sixth round pick, and have Boldin back??? NO?? Oh well....

What a beast.  And now he has a real Quarterback again..... Look out.


Cowboys Cheerleaders had plenty to cheer about... 6 turnovers against the hated Giants.  The Fraud That Is Eli Manning, already in midseason form, nice to see.....  Actually, that game should have been a blowout....  and now Tony Romo is hurt..... ouch....

News Item: Matt Flynn sold his house!

 
Not bad, not bad.... $1.4 million dollars, apparently...  this was his house in Seattle.  Maybe he should try a 1 year lease, and see how that goes.....  I mean, that would be a nice summer house... I'm not sure I'd want to be stuck there all year, though.....

(Yeah, right...)


That is Jacksonville, home of the Jacksonville Jaguars.  That's not 4 hours before kickoff people, that's the END OF THE 3RD QUARTER!!!

That's pretty empty.  Yeeesh.   Keep in mind, they adamantly do not want Tebow.  They do NOT.  They are apparently fundamentally opposed to anything that might draw people into their building....  Plus, they already have a guy who cannot play Quarterback, the immortal Blaine Gabbert....  who is now injured, and they need a QB.....  but no Tebow, please!    No no..... smh....

How about those Eagles???  Phanatic Philly Phan probably needed a defibrillator midway through the second quarter.....  that was a fun game to watch.... Chip Kelly, quite a debut....

Question: If a player straddling the ten yard line throws a pass, and a player at the 8&1/2  yard line bats it down, was the ball going forward, for a forward pass???  If you said no, congrats!  Not only are you bad at geometry, but you have a bright future as an official in the NFL!!!!

I promised myself I was going to stop b*tching about officiating, but holy crap.....  that's a promise made to be broken....

Alright people, we literally have less than 49 hours before the next football game.  I know, right??  Get your picks in, come correct, come strong with it.....

Rather than send 19 emails, everyone is paid up, okay, so relax.... Nobody is getting booted.   Fresh point spreads have landed on websites, like new fallen snow....

Congrats to the Cardinals!  I thought they would win, but they DID COVER.  Now, if there was a worldwide network of computers, and you could place bets in the British Virgin Isles, I may have had money on that.....

Until next week!
