Wow- I went to sleep and missed out on all the fun! Nice avatar, Walker BTW.
RDWJ- I'd be up for a trade, maybe. Let me look and see how I can possibly improve my team. I've got at least one to unload today.

Thanks. I'm rather fond of the tagline above it. Bird failed to specify one for me, so I'm taking liberties until he decides what he wants there.
I don't mind, really. If you want to keep whining, go right ahead. I think I've had better luck getting my daughter to quit whimpering, though; maybe she can reason with you.
Funny thing - teams have tried to steal signals for years and years and years. Bill Simmons mentioned in a recent column how he was watching an old Favre game when they were playing I think the 49ers, and Favre was giving some commentary. They knew the 49ers had been stealing their signals, so they made adjustments - fake calls, etc. They dealt. The world didn't end, football didn't lose all of its credibility because tried to steal signals.
The Pats broke the rules, I'm disappointed. They're losing a freakin' first round draft pick, which one might equate to losing our starting running back. If you REALLY think that the only reason they have had success over the years has been that "they're a bunch of cheaters, dammit," well, there's no reasoning with you. Screw it, think what you want to think. All the venemous hate that's being directed at the Pats does nothing more than unite the team, them against the world; while I don't expect they'll go 16-0, it wouldn't shock me if they did.
I *know* you're not naive enough to think that the Patriots are the only team that's bent/broken these rules... are you?
EDIT: Maybe you should start rooting for the Packers or something this year... you seem to have some unresolved issues that maybe rooting for a GOOD team might help alleviate

*sigh*
I've been trying very hard to get you to throw a tantrum all week, and I guess this is as close as I'm going to get. Fooey.
Pick the tagline, man....

This sucks. 5th highest score in the league, and nearly in last place.

I'm sorry, you must have mistaken us for people who give a ****!!!!!!!!
Suck it up wanker!!!!!!

"5th highest score" sounds pretty good..... except when you add the context that there are only 12 teams.

More trash talk than anything
. I may wager on occasion but betting on this game would be like expecting to win Powerball with a $1 ticket.

Good news! After this week, either ollllllo or I will have a win.
Crap. Coles just went down.
GET UP, PUNK!
GET UP, PUNK!
And I am an IDIOT for not starting Ward ths week.
I blame all of this on Dude and Boston. They dragged me out drinking yesterday and I didn't get to finalize my team properly.

Walker, your avatar makes me chuckle. Imagine if that was an MLT.

Why so dry? Lets go for a maltier brew on that one.
The hot water might feel pretty good, when we have home games late in January. Prolly not so much an issue in Cincinnati this year, eh?
DAMN! Anyone watchin that NY vs NY game?
That catch by Burress was worth probably 22 points for me.

64-32. You're doubling up on me. Better run, don't walk, out and buy that Powerball ticket. Get one for me while you're at it. Yeesh!
Anybody with stat tracker want to post more current scores? Thanks!

Might have to change your name to the hard teddy bears.
Looks like my new name may have brough me luck. Or it's just that I'm going up against the only person who can match my suckiness.

Now, that's funny right there! (said with a Larry the Cable Guy Accent!)
Boston said:
Um, thanks, I think.
I agree with you. When I was watching the game last night, I kept thinking, "I'm so screwed with 5 INTs" (I don't have stat tracker). This morning I saw the score and think you got gypped.
I thought I'd get more points out of Julius Jones, though.
So, you can't be the raging hard-ons? I still think that's a good name for you!

Should we have a friendly little wager? Winner picks the loser's team name for the week.
