Peyton Manning adds 6-8 wins to the Colts.....minimum
Eli Manning is horrible and should be embarrassed for comparing himself to his brother, and Brady, and Rodgers, and Brees, etc... The Ravens were my pick for the AFC crown going into week 1 and they didn't diappoint by spanking the Steelers. 7 turnovers on a sloppy day from Big Ben & Co. The Packers and Saints were entertaining on Thursday night and both look like offensive juggernauts. We could see them again in the NFC Championship game. The Cowboys blew the biggest 4th quarter lead in team history and Sanchez looked pretty damn good last night. The Cowboys could be good, but like the Giants, mistakes and turnovers could be their demise. Tampa Bay came into the season on a high and no longer the underdog! Then they lost to the much improved Detroit Lions. Matthew Stafford was solid and will be all season. My Redskins got a W against their nemisis the New York Giants. Rex Grossman was solid and interception free. The Skins stayed dedicated to the run despite little success moving it on the ground. The defense was stout, recorded 4 sacks, scored a touchdown, and shoutout Eli and the G-men in the second half. The Eagles started slow, but a Steven Jackson injury made it a little easier and the offense looked great by the end of the game. The jury is still out on whether these new look Eagles will jell by the end of the season, but they looked good in Week 1. Tonight my other fave in the AFC will get an easy W......the New England Patriots. AFC Championship New England vs Baltimore NFC Championship Green Bay vs Philadelphia Super Bowl Baltimore vs Green Bay Champion Green Bay |

in fantasyland, the texans killed me. in the two leagues where i was running away with it, i traded all my extras for andre johnson, only for schaub/leinart to go busto. meanwhile, all my extras were slotted in as starters on opponent teams, and they are kicking my ass. fuck. |

at 1:27 PM, Tuesday November 29, 2011 EST I mean, he thanks God in every interview and he points to the sky EVERYTIME something goes right. Being the simple-minded atheist I am, I just don't understand this.
In one of his interviews he said something along the lines of "When you're married, you don't just tell your wife you love her the day you get married".... But I don't see any sports players in an interview saying "First and foremost I'd like to thank my wife Shaniqua through which all things are made possible." I just don't get it... |
