  1. Not that odd, when you think about it. The Cubs haven't been to the playoffs much since divisional play started.
  2. That was Reichen and Chip's season, right? I don't remember a sibling team from then. The only sibling teams I remember going far were the Teeth from season 2 and the Wonder Twins and O Brothers from season 3.
  3. They already have 4 million committed to Toskala, plus the buyout on Raycroft for this year and next. I doubt they take Khabibulin on. They're not going anywhere. Ottawa will pick him up. It's not like they need another average European goalie anyways. Not a chance. They're right at the cap as it is.
  4. You'd have a hard time finding them, considering Bob's a Braves fan.
  5. Even God doesn't care who wins the AL Central.
  6. Well, now we'll get to see what the Great Depression was like first-hand.
  7. Now is the time to buy. Well, maybe not right now this instant, because the Dow's going to drop even lower, but right around now.
  8. Hasn't that been the story for the Bluejays this whole decade? No, they've had actual miserable seasons.
  9. Yeah, she looks to me like the type that would "forgive" her husband...and then cut his balls off and keep them in a jar on her nightstand. He looks totally whipped.
  10. I picked Alabama just because they're the only team playing at home.
  11. Great, I need to cheer for the Ravens tonight. I'm probably fucked.

    But the guy who put the defense that allowed 22 points or so in one quarter gets to be the next head coach? Yeah, that's what I was thinking too. Besides, Kiffin's not getting fired because Big Al doesn't want to pay him. He wants to make Kiffin so miserable he'll quit, but good on Lane for basically giving him the finger on that front.
  13. My wife and I entered our wedding reception to the HNIC theme.

    What a gag job by the Raiders. 25 points allowed in the 4th quarter.
  15. Of course I'm going to lose to emergency picks.
  16. And Ryan Braun's homer puts the Brewers on the brink of the postseason.
  17. Well, that was certainly closer than it needed to be. The Packers pick looks to be toast.

    The Broncos are just completely shitting the bed here against the Chiefs. This is unwatchable. It's a testament to how bad the Chiefs are that Denver is even in the game, only down 3 (but with the Chiefs in the red zone).

    WTF is Warner doing out there.
  20. And I switched it from the Bills to the Jaguars at the last minute. Denver - 3 Jacksonville - 3 Buffalo - 2 Carolina - 1 Green Bay - 1 San Diego - 1 I was stunned by the Packers pick, to be honest.

    My picks: 1:00 Games ATL @ CAR - Both teams can run, but only the Panthers can actually stop the run, too. CLE @ CIN - No Carson Palmer might actually be an improvement, but I doubt it. I still think the Browns are the better team. HOU @ JAC - This should be a beatdown. Garrard will have a field day against the Texans secondary. DEN @ KC - Another rout. With two rookies starting at corner, Cutler could throw for 400 yards. SF @ NO - This will be close, but I don't trust the Niners on the road. ARI @ NYJ - Cardinals should have won last week in Washington, and this Jets team isn't as good as the Redskins. Throw in a short week and a cross-country flight for New York and I have Arizona winning handily. GB @ TB - With two evenly-matched teams, I always go for the home team. This won't be decided by more than a TD either way. MIN @ TEN - Probably close and low-scoring, but I think the Titans are just better. 4:00 Games SD @ OAK - The Chargers seem to have their confidence back, and the Raiders are just a mess. BUF @ STL - I think the Bills have turned the corner as far as winning games they're supposed to goes. WAS @ DAL - Redskins are improving, but the Cowboys are just way too good. Night game PHI @ CHI - I don't know how anyone can pick against any NFC East team right now. MNF BAL @ PIT - Upset of the week. Pittsburgh is in really rough shape offensively, and the Ravens D should be able to hold them to single digits and win an ugly one.
  23. Small subplots to otherwise unimportant games this afternoon: - The Angels try to win 100 games for the first time in franchise history against the Rangers. - Mike Mussina goes for the first 20-win season of his career against the Red Sox in game 1 of their doubleheader. - Randy Johnson goes for career win no. 295 against the Rockies. - James Shields will attempt to set a new Rays franchise record for wins with his 15th this afternoon against the Tigers.
  24. I was so excited to have gone 5-1 in the differing matchups, I didn't even notice that I got every other game but one wrong. :hangs head in shame:
  25. No, they're still doing HNIC, they just decided to ditch the theme (??) and hold a contest among fans to write a new one (???). Another theme I liked that wasn't mentioned here was the .
