Griffinator Posted September 7, 2003 Share Posted September 7, 2003 I know the feeling, Geoff. I'm ecstatic that the Vikes put a hurt on GB (yeah, they made it close, but AFAIC, that was slop) but the Pats being stomped in Buffalo was totally depressing...

Dave Bryce Posted September 8, 2003 Author Share Posted September 8, 2003 Originally posted by Dave Bryce: For those of you who have never played one of these before, you may be in for a surprise. Traditionally, about half of the people playing get eliminated in the first few weeks, because no one really knows which teams are in what form until about week 4. Well, that was a touch more prophetic than I cared to be.... Major carnage...more than half gone, and at least one more sure elimination tomorrow night. Y'know, whenever I describe this pool to someone who's never heard of it, they always look at me like I'm crazy. I smile and nod and say, "Yeah, it sounds easy, doesn't it? Just one winner...no point spread. It's actually a lot harder than you thinks". ...grumble grumble...knew I shoulda gone with KC... dB ==> David Bryce Music • Funky Young Monks <== Professional Affiliations: Royer Labs • Music Player Network Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keybass Posted September 8, 2003 Share Posted September 8, 2003 What, you thought I was serious with St. Louis? It's official. I hate Mike Martz. Oh well maybe next year. Peace Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magpel Posted September 8, 2003 Share Posted September 8, 2003 Carnage indeed. And while Miami's loss booted me from the pool, I'm pretty darned thrilled about the NYG win over the Rams. I don't know if that was a national game, but if you didn't see it, the Giants rang Warner's bell repeatedly and stifled Faulk. Warner fumbled 5 times! (lost 3) If it weren't for an exceptional catch by Torry Holt, they wouldn't even had reached the endzone. The Giants O was sloppy, but that will improve. Talk about a jumpstart! I'm very psyched for the NYG season now. Check out the Sweet Clementines CD at bandcamp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RABid Posted September 8, 2003 Share Posted September 8, 2003 Originally posted by Dave Bryce: ...grumble grumble...knew I shoulda gone with KC... dBHey, you were the leader that got us in to this. The first one to pick Miami. The one that knows football. The one so many of us thought would last the week. And so we follow our fearless leader and where does it get us? ..... Ok. So when I picked Miami I thought no one else had picked them, and I foolishly stated that in a post. I admitted that I did not see anyone else pick them even though you were at the top of the list. But even if getting booted the first week was all my fault, it feels better to blame someone else. Robert This post edited for speling.

nitecrawler47 Posted September 8, 2003 Share Posted September 8, 2003 WOW Definate carnage so far. Its half time with the Titan/Raider game and I still look good so far. I'm a little concerned that Tennessee lost their regular field goal kicker in the first half and that first extra point could be prophetic by the end of the game. Well, got to find out if I'm still in this thing after thirty more minutes. nitecrawler "Time to head down that old Colorado highway pardner."

nitecrawler47 Posted September 8, 2003 Share Posted September 8, 2003 The Raiders go DOWN!!!by five. I really do enjoy tight games, although this one had more penalties than it should have. Still, it was an enjoyable game to watch, especially since the Raiders have to enjoy the sour taste of defeat. Go Broncos! nitecrawler "Time to head down that old Colorado highway pardner."

Magpel Posted September 8, 2003 Share Posted September 8, 2003 Chuztpah award of the week goes to Rader Ranch for that Buffalo call. Not only on target but with a venegeance!
