and I'm already out of my suicide pool. frown

Think I've won my football pool!

It's just keeps getting better and better - SAINTS WIN!

the Bills win their opener 22-7!!

The D forces 5 TO's from the Texans, Willis runs for 117 yards....JP Losman did the job with a TD pass and no INT's.

TampaFan beware.....Buffalo stampede approaching Raymond James Stadium!

BR - love ya for being a "homer", but have you ever been to Tampa in September? It will be 86 at kick off with 132% humidity.

Bucs 31
Bills 13

BlueRaider - EXTREME Props to your web site - VERY impressive.

I've copied the link here so others can check it out
The best damn gay football stadium guide...

Let us know the next time you're in town for the game!!! I can help you score tickets if needed. wink

I'm sure the humidity won't bother McGahee(Miami),Losman(Tulane), or Moulds(Ole Miss)....yes I have(sitting in the confines of the Trop and hanging out on the beach as Frances rushes through).

Bills 24
Bucs 16

utterly useless Bucs/Bills trivia....

The Bucs are the ONLY NFL team never to have played a regular season game at Rich Stadium/Ralph Wilson Stadium.

some moer utterly useless Bills trivia...

I went to the Bears (i think)/Bills game there in 2002. A good friend's brother played for the Bills (now back with the Bucs). Had a GREAT time at the game and even better time at the "after hours/game party", Drew Bledsow threw a party with 4 RV's after the game. Great fun, great amosphere , great food and beer.

Never realized how big Drew was until you stand next to him.

Loved the ORIGINAL wings at the Anchor Bar in Buffalo.

I'll take any crow Kenny throws out, but Puker, you can go F yourself!!

That said...Loney sucks as OC...and the PI call on Wiggins to negate his TD was bogus and you know it.

Also, Culpepper always has one horrendous game a year. Last year was the Giants, year before was Oakland. This year was Tampa. Thank your luck!

I'm off to finish getting smashed.

Stinger where is the love?


ROFL

And you thought you'd never have anything in common with PF...

The early Fox game here was Bears-Redskins. I saw a few plays before falling asleep, thank heavens. Obviously the dogmeat game of the day...seems appropriate that Tony Siragusa and crew were assigned.

And to ask a question I asked in that thread about the Patriots' record after 6 games: What's so brutal about Denver? Answer: obviously nothing.

What the hell was that Nick-and-Jessica crap? I found them on both Fox and CBS. I changed the channel so fast...

I agree with you JIP - Denver doesn't scare me. I didn't understand why they were lumped in that either.

So is it overconfidence or just that two of the supposed top teams in the NFC are not as good as everyone thought. Carolina and Minnesota were prohibative favorites and failed to win. At least Carolina played it close to the cuff but Minnesota was just bad. I thought the Vikes are supposed to start their spiral downward in the second half of the season.

Culpepper can take responsibility for this loss fumbling twice and throwing two picks. Maybe Dante was just pining the loss of Moss and couldn't concentrate. :confused:

...or was it that the Bucs defense was THAT good?

I think it was a bit of the Bucs D being good, but Minnesota did look flat. Maybe they were over confident?

The Bucs almost blew it in the end. I think the Bucs fans walk away feeling better about the offense. Cadillac looked good considering it was his first game. The O line looked improved and the QB and receivers looked decent.

Viking fans have to be scratching their heads...

It was great to see the Panthers lose. Now if the Eagles can take care of business tomorrow nite...

[ September 11, 2005, 03:54 PM: Message edited by: PewterPirate ]

The Bolts shot themslves in the foot against Dallas. Three drive extending penalties on 3rd downs and Gates was missed on that last drive.

well, So far I've lost the Panthers game and the Charges game in my pool. I'll take the Panthers divisional loss - Bucs always struggle with the Panthers...

Funnest result of the day: 49ers 28, SHAMS 25! BWA-HA-HA-HA-HA-HA-HA!!!

The Fox post-game show is now called The O.T.? I don't think I can take any more of this stupidity.

Just to show that "parody" is alive and well in the NFL consider how the bottom feeders of last year did against their .500 or better opponents today.

4-12 Miami beats 10-6 Denver
7-9 KC beats 10-6 JETS
6-10 Dallas beats 12-4 San Diego
5-11 Tampa beats 8-8 Minnesota
2-14 San Fran beats 8-8 St. Louis
6-10 Detroit beats 10-6 Green Bay

I want copyright fees for all the times you use Shams

At least my fantasy team fared well this week

Cadillac got me 15, Jags D 14, and having to bench Gates, Pollard stepped up with 9.

Actually, the Vikings lost their Offensive Coordinater, Scott Linehan, to Miami in the offseason. This was the first time Loney was calling plays in the NFL in an actual game. I blame him for the loss. They cut to him at one point and he had that deer in the headlight look. I give him 2 more games then call for somebody else to call the O.

They were runnning the wrong plays against a cover 2. That explains why Minn. had so many 3 and outs. It wasn't the Tampa D. Watch the highlight. They made no plays. Everything was given to them. Minn. was runnng the wrong routes to beat a cover 2.

As for Puker, it's nice of him to show up when his team is winning or has won. Show up before the fact and I'll think of you more than just a carpetbagger.

Kenny, my hats off to you. You supported your team. Puker, as I said before, go F yourself. You'll still be watching Minnesota in January with your precious Bucs at their homes.

Oh well, then thank God that Miami picked up Linehan!!! Additionally, that God that Mike Tice is a dumb bitch and hired Loney! Maybe Tice thinks the "deer in the headlights look" is hot?

Regardless, Didn't Cadillac look great on that last TD run? That last Culpepper interception was sweet too!

It's a toss-up for best play of the game.

Is it just me or was Lee Greenwood's rendition of "Star- Spangled Banner" just awful?

Puker, just let me be the first to say it will be nice NOT to hear from you for the next 4 weeks while your team is losing. Glad you are here after the fact though. Maybe some day you can become a true fan, but I doubt it.

What? If you go to page one of this thread you'd see I was here days ago...

You meanie!...

Stinger - enough about the Vikings loss. Did you hear Lee Greenwood sing the SSB at the beginning of the Colts game?

This is what I looked like eek! while he was singing it...

Move over, AFC. The Mighty Pittsburgh Steelers are heading to Detroit in February. See ya in SB XL, baby!

Everyone plese join me in saying...

T R O L L

TROLL!

Yes, beating the Tennessee Titans at home means you're Super Bowl material.

What do you mean move over AFC, the Stillers are in the AFC. Besides one victory over the lowly Titans does not make Pittsburgh better than New England or Indy.

This is what I looked like when I changed the channel.

Breesboy: you get full credit for the creation of "Shams." It's perfect. wink

Back to the drawing board for the Ravens offense? Being shut out by the Colts (with very little time left as I write)??

I'll take credit of the 4th and 9ers too ....

A few things we learned today...

1. It's week 1.
2. Martz is a bitch.
3. You can't have unprotected sex with a certain Atl QB, if you can call him that...

GO EAGLES!

My take; Cyd's up later.

Is it a hat or visor stinger doll? Thanks either way! Good way to end my last day of vacation.

Now where is a good Buffalo trash talker? Although I know Stinger likes their QB?!

WOOHOO!! Cowboys!!

I second that, and - GO FALCONS!!!!!

All this talk and not a single WAHOO over the Giants. granted Eli was less than stellar but the defense played hard and fast and TIKI and embarrassed old man Warner. TIKI and Burress did just fine...although Burress has to get the teflon off his hands.... STILL WAY TO GO G-MEN

Yes, beating the cards when they go back east is very hard. Even for the crybaby Bitch Eli.

However a few more observations.

1. Most poke fan CAN have unprotected sex with Mr. Mexico.
2. Most Gint fans wouldnt know not to have unprotected sex with Vick.
3. 4-skins fans have one W down 3 more to go.
4. If that is what Simon considers staying in shape in the offseason... well... no wonder you got the tag lifted. Simon is bigger than the Vick Hype.

GO EAGLES!

[ September 12, 2005, 08:31 AM: Message edited by: PhillyFan ]

things to look for in tonights game between the Eagles and Falcons...

1. TO and Mcnabb catfight, giving each other dirty looks, pulling each other hair and slapping each other silly

2. Bryan Westbrook pouting and crying that he is not getting his money

3. The eagles losing by a late fourth quarter field goal.

But T.O. loves Donovan! He said so on ESPN, the Terrell Owens Network (except when it's the Drew Rosenhaus Network or the Barry Bonds Network).

(Like all great comics I recycle my material. wink )

STD ALERT in Atl tonight.

Very nice to see the Poke fans stick their heads out (when winning of course).

They should be making a run for the border in a few weeks...

\"Road-field advantage\" in effect tonight! Time for a sing-along!

Fly Eagles Fly
On the road to victory
Fight Eagles Fight
Score a touchdown 1-2-3
Hit 'em low
Hit 'em high
And watch our Eagles fly
Fly Eagles Fly
On the road to victory!
E-A-G-L-E-S EAGLES!!!

Man, living here is something else...
In a "what the f**k?" moment, somebody at work wrote on the dry-erase board outside my office with a permanent marker "Skins 9, Bears 7" :confused: . I neither have interest in the Redskins nor the Bears, so why target me?

PCCos(Most respected poster)'s mom probably didnt lock up the magic markers after yesterdays THRILLING win!

I see you're the same drunken dolt you've always been. Isn't it a little early?

Hey....you talkin' to ME!?!!? wink

Bills 24
Bucs 16

It's nver too early for PhillyFan on Eagles Game Day/Night - just imagine what he'll be like by 9:00 p.m. Arizona time... eek!

Fortunately, I didn't get to see the game, but it appeared the Jets didn't show up for it. Pennington had good enough stats, except, of course, for his 6 fumbles. And the Jets did avoid the shutout, but only on paper.

Now the Jets find themselves alone in the AFC East cellar. frown

YEAH GIBBS IS BACK!

Ready for another Beating?

Thought for sure, like most 4-skin fans, you would run and hide after falling on your face last year...

but alas... one win... and they are back!

GO JOE GIBBS! Have some pretty Gibbs articles for us?

What timing.

His team blows out the worst team in football (In the Gibbs II Era, 9-6 is considered a blowout) and look who decides to come back to the board.

Truly amazing. You are the "Lethal Weapon" of Outsports posters.
