The Eagles are 2-0 in the NFC Least.  Wake me in February.   

Heh, I don't know if the Eagles should feel good about winning that division or not. Clearly--unless something drastic happens--they will run away with the Least; the question is, how far do they go in January?

One can dream, eh?  And the answer is, probably as far as they did last year, or maybe one playoff win.

The Giants must have lost Sunday, as I heard nary a peep from their fans at work on Monday -- same for the Yankees.

This week's Thursday Night football barely rates as a game so far--no reason not to turn to baseball later on. I believe King Felix is pitching tonight--probably will be better than watching the Bucs get embarrassed.... 

[Paul Pain]

That game last night was a farce.

Here I am... a Redskins fan... abuse me; that goes especially for YOU Lefty.

[Shemp_Diesel]

Seeing as how my Steelers won't get stomped until tonight, I guess I'll watch the Packers and Lions at 1pm. That could be a game where defense is non-existent today...

[Shemp_Diesel]

Speaking of no defense, how about that Skins/Eagles game. Eagles are very fortunate to be 3-0 with that sorry ass D--but I'm sure Lefty will take it any way he can get it.

Soitenly!  But a loss wouldn't have been so bad had it meant the end of the career of that egg-suckin' dog DeSchmuck, who should have been given a penalty for two-handing an Eagle in the face early on.  And just think -- I dislike the Deadskins less than the Cowchips or the Gnats, the latter of which is most disliked due to the nimrods at work who like them (and the Skankees, and the Devil Dogs).

How much would you have won from your bookie if you bet a 3 week, 3 team parlay on Cincy, Phillie and 'Zona at the start of the season? Which one's will lose this week?

Edit: I see that only Phillie plays this week. A chance to be 4 and 0 for the first time since....?

Washington REDSKINS (take that Senate) @ New York Giants: who sucks more?

If RG III is hurt, then it's them. Is he?

[Paul Pain]

If RGIII is still hurt, then the 'Skins chances of winning go up astronomically.

[Shemp_Diesel]

Bob Griffin is definitely out for this game--not sure if he's done for the rest of the season, but the Skins offense has looked good with Kirk Cousins--albeit against some suspect defenses.

I just hope tonight's game is better than the crapfest from last week...


 

[Shemp_Diesel]

The Steelers, unreal--and not in a good way.... 

[Paul Pain]

Was that beautiful Monday night or what?!  Love seeing Brady get sent to the bench because he was sucking out the joint.

[Svengarlic]

The Steelers, unreal--and not in a good way.... 

Tough week for the Steeltown. Good week for KC...probably the best since 1985.

[Shemp_Diesel]

Well, Aaron Rodgers appears to have regained his MVP-caliber form--amidst the shitfest that continues to be Thursday Night Football.

Squirrelbait must be happy though...   

[Shemp_Diesel]

It seems like you can always count on the Cincinnati Bungles to melt in a big game situation. And likewise, you should never count out the Patriots--not as long as Brady and Belichick are around....

Brady and Belichick? Who are these names you speak of? Well, Manning schooled the Cardinals. They're good on D, but bad on O. It's gonna be another frustrating season for me.

[Shemp_Diesel]

Peyton Manning and the Broncos can make anybody look bad. The Cards will be fine I think--Arians is a good coach and you're still missing Carson Palmer.

Btw, is there any reason to watch football tonight? Seattle should paste the Skins...

[vomit]

Who are these 4-1 Dallas Cowboys?

A team that blows out the Saints?

Or the team that barely squeezes past St. Louis?

...or the team that shot itself in the foot against The Niners?

Don't know.....and I am not buying JJ's koolaid.  Nor do I trust Garrett.  It is refreshing to see a commitment to the run.....and a dominant O-line.  Reminds me of the good ol' Days. 

I am NOT a believer yet.  If this team can go up to Seattle next week and compete, I will start believing.

Until than, this "team" is still more than likely 8-8 or worse.

Cmon Dallas, don't let me down!

Like the sunrise, for years we could count on Romo to blow up in the 4th quarter. There must be a crack in the universe because it looks like reviled Boys of Cow from Dallas, Texas will finish 9-7, or dare I say say 10-6? The evil franchise has either paid it's penance, or Jerry Jones has finally sold something.....his soul to the devil. I predict a good showing in Seattle. Perhaps even a (gulp) victory.

Yep. Romo has blown a few....and I'm not gonna defend some of his boneheaded mistakes....but he has been pretty good overall.  With 21 4th quarter comebacks and 25 game winning drives.

Well we know it wasn't his soul......since he doesn't have one.

I don't know what I was thinking.

There you go.

My only hope for the Cowgirls this week is that they do not embarrass me.  Keep it respectable please.  And whoever is playing the Packers....please win.

[Shemp_Diesel]

I just looked at the schedule--the Fins are hosting the Packers, so you may not get your wish vomit. I think the Dolphins will find out, playing the Packers is very different from playing the Raiders....
