Posted: Mon Oct 04, 2010 11:57 amCongrats Baglady. I think you and I were the only ones that picked the Rams to win. Although the rest of my picks were garbage as usual. Back to flipping that coin.

Yes. We were the only two here that picked them. Sorry V. But if it makes you feel better I picked the Broncos to lose. I was shocked when they won.

Actually the last 2 seasons have been crazy-weird. The nice thing about this season is that "NEW BLOOD" (Texans/Rams for example) is improving. It's REFRESHING!! I get tired of seeing the same dynasties year after year. That's boring.

Yeah.. I suppose last year was crazy too with the Saints winning it all. Actually I tend to pull for AFC except for the Raiders but I was rooting like crazy for the Saints. They went through so much with the hurricane and decades of humiliation in the NFL. I did want to see the Hawks beat the Steelers as well since you were in our division at one time. Still feel that bond a little.

At least the Rams have won a SuperBowl (1999). I'd like to see the Lions pull off that win. They've had their share of humiliation over the decades as well.

Re: *Pickem Gameday Update*
Posted: Mon Oct 04, 2010 1:22 pmI can't really say I have ever pulled for the Lions. Or the Browns for that matter. I do feel bad for the fans though. I don't think the owners want to pay the money to assemble the right team of coaches and players. It just happens. Although the Browns were much better in the 80's and the Lions have always pretty much sucked in Superbowl years.
Re: *Pickem Gameday Update*
Posted: Mon Oct 04, 2010 1:24 pmOh snap. The Broncos knocked the Browns out of the AFC championship 3 times in the 80's. Although we lost all 3 of those to the NFC in the SB. 
Well our 2 SB wins in the 90's are enough for me in this lifetime.

Re: *Pickem Gameday Update*
Posted: Mon Oct 04, 2010 1:35 pmI've never pulled for either of those two teams either. But neither will I pull for teams that have 5+ SuperBowl rings to their name either. It's just the way I roll.
Re: *Pickem Gameday Update*
Posted: Mon Oct 04, 2010 2:30 pmLOL, in that case you should have sympathies for the Texans, ck. Our nine wins last year gave us our first ever year above .500 and this is the first time that we've ever been 3-1. We are the classic underdogs. We aren't even imagining a Super Bowl.

Re: *Pickem Gameday Update*
Posted: Thu Oct 07, 2010 6:17 pmSince you brought that up, I would rather have my team win than win the picks.
Re: *Pickem Gameday Update*
Posted: Sun Oct 10, 2010 1:43 pmAbout par for my picks these days, at the halftimf break I was 4-4-1
Re: *Pickem Gameday Update*
Posted: Sun Oct 10, 2010 2:00 pmOh man... Addai is hurt. Peyton is looking a little green around the gills and things, generally, are not going well in the Colts' home today. The other injured are looking solemnly on as Addai walks off the field.
Speaking of looking a little green around the gills... I AM FEELING A Little green around the gills as well.
PEYTON JUST THREW AN INTERCEPTION!!! (Which has nothing to do with my upset tummy...)

Re: *Pickem Gameday Update*
Posted: Sun Oct 10, 2010 2:08 pmPeyton is going to take them right down the field on this drive for a TD....
Re: *Pickem Gameday Update*
Posted: Sun Oct 10, 2010 2:19 pm3 & 10 by KC - INCOMPLETE!
4 & 10 Penalty against KC (now 5 yards further away) FG is Good! NEW GAME: 9 - 9...
Away from the game, which, either is, or is not going well if you are or are not a Colts' fan...
Shall we talk about my VERY upset tummy now?
Okay, then, here's the story...
I had breakfast out with my dear, dear hubby. Delicious provolone omelet, rye toast and grits. I got home and had chunks of both my M&M Carvel Ice Cream Cake and my Snickers' Ice Cream Cake and then went upstairs to get on the computer (FINALLY--after 2 days of problems, problems, problems), but first grabbed my 3 lb. bag of Gummy Bears, from which I have been stuffing my face CONSTANTLY... Anyway... I am pretty sure it's NOT because I am upset by some of those passes that Peyton has been tossing all over the place that my tummy is so upset...
Oh my...
(4th and 10--Garcon's catch was challenged and overturned. Vinateri on the field--and it is GOOD! 12-0...

Re: *Pickem Gameday Update*
Posted: Sun Oct 10, 2010 2:26 pm Can't believe it's such an awful year for the Colts (still 12-9, just speaking generally--as KC drives back down the field...). I think Bags is going to ask me to step down from being an honorary fan for the Colts if this keeps up. Finally. KC had to punt, which should give decent field position to the Colts, who still seem discombobulated today...
