How do you figure this?

I am extremely sane and I cannot say I believe it.

Suck on that. I picked an upset none of you had the balls to go for.

Baltimore got healthy at the right time, their defense was lights out but they can't afford to make mistakes on special teams like that next week.

Both results surprised me today. Ray Lewis is going to be out of his mind next week against the Patriots.

Yes you did. Congratulations. Of course, if Denver's 8 that they dropped to defend the
bomb had done their job the game was over.

I am pleased because now if the Texans pull off a stunner tomorrow, we will host the
AFC championship.

Hey, what is up with the Eagles? All three big name college coaches turned them down.
Are they trying to go bargain basement, or is the team in that much disarray?

They're terrible. They'll be sub-.500 again next year no matter who their coach is. Between a journeyman QB with no experience, another one who can't play, undersized linebackers, soft cornerbacks, an offensive line with no talent, and a defensive line that couldn't sack a ham sandwich, it's going to be years before they're competitive again. RG III and a two-time Super Bowl winner in the division aren't going to help matters. Then you're going to have a brand new coaching staff at almost every position, and it's going to take at least two years before these guys even know each others' names.

I wish they could have timed when they were really going to suck a lot better than they did. They could have had Luck or RG III - although it remains to be seen how effective Griffin can be next year. There's nobody in the draft this year.

Even in that case Baltimore still covers. I knew they would cover, or at least I was extremely sure they could, and so I picked them for an upset.

We were picking just winners, not against the spread.

You would have lost...there was no cover.

Or did I misunderstand what you said?

In my last post my meaning was that I was sure they could cover easily considering they were healthier than the last game as evidenced by how well the defense played so I just went for the upset pick instead of wimping out.

Congratulating yourself. Not tacky at all.
