Are you ready for some Football - Week 13 - Thanksgiving

[Imran Siddiqui]

Ah, don't worry. We all forget. For example, I forgot last week, which sucked royally.

Good week for the team... sorry to bring up the rear... try to do better this time .

[Chris 62]

I know, but it still sucks.

[rah]

As long as Reis remembers to take out the weeks of no picks for a team member when he calculates the team scores...........

[Chris 62]

It's the third time for my team, Drake did it twice!

Sloww has been there every week.

You know RAH, I was telling your brother last night I missed the ribbing we gave each other last year over the league.

It just isn't the same without an active thread.

[rah]

True. Maybe someone should go out there and calculate the team scores to give to him to post. That might get some chatter going. I'm surpised he hasn't done it. I could understand before since it took so much time. but now it couldn't take more than 15 minutes or so.

Bummer, Chris. Our team has had 2 "zero" entries this year, so I feel your pain. But, hey -- it happens.

Hey, IIRC, there are Saturday NFL games this week. (If not this week, then next. Maybe both.) Beware the early deadline for picks!

[SlowwHand]

Yeah I looked around Lombardi during the weekend, YIKES, no other Slacker members. Bum-mer!

You want chatter? I've been intentionally NOT chattering about Yahoo and Sandbox.
You want to know how it's going there ?
Come on. Ask me.

Go for two?
The Giants can't even put it in from the one, he's trying for two???
Moron.

That is sound coaching theory, up by 14 means two TD's only ties you. Up by 13, 2 TD's beat you, same with if they miss the 2 pointer 2 TD's beats a lead of 12, too.

Of course you ARE talking about the Giants' crappy offense.

ACK!

A man staggers into an emergency room with a
concussion, multiple bruises, two black eyes and
a five iron wrapped tightly around his throat.

Naturally, the doctor asks him what happened.

Well, it was like this', said the man. 'I was
having a quiet round of golf with my wife, when
at a difficult hole, we both sliced our ball into
pasture of cows. We went to look for them, and
while I was rooting around, I noticed one of the
cows had something white at its rear end. I
walked over and lifted up the tail, and sure
enough, there was a golf ball with my wife's
monogram on it -- stuck right in the middle of the
cow's butt. That's when I made my big mistake.'

What did you do?', asks the doctor.

Well, I lifted the cow's tail and yelled to my
wife, 'Hey, this looks like yours!'

I don't remember much after that.

what quarter was that.

the rule is to never go for 2 unless it is the fourth quater.

new orleans almost burned themselves on that. They went for 2 in the second quater. I guess they thought Tampa Bay would only get field goals. So they wanted to be up by 6. Well tampa bay got a touchdown after that. And at the end of the game they were only down by 3. If they had went for the extra point TB would have been down by 4 which would requite a TD.

Never go for 2 unless it is fourth quarter. You never know how the score is going to play out. The NO/TB game I just decribed proves that.

You are correct, I was assuming it was the 4th quarter, but I could be wrong.

ACK!

I believe the giants went for 2 early in the 4th.

With a lead, you go for 2 only to create leads of 3 or 7. Maybe 10. But IMHO with a lead of more than 7, it's clearly a mistake.

Hearing lots of "fire Fassell" talk out of NY this week...
