Thanks for the reply - I'm actually not that high on the legend Cito Gaston, but he was better than Buck Martinez, the draft dodger and Gibbons. Hopefully this guy will be too

Brother CardinalCary, Baseball is by far the sport for which I have the most knowledge. I could coach baseball to kids. Everybody was talking about the Homer Happy Jays this year, but I'm always concerned with the arms race within the division. You guys lost Halladay, but you got Happ & Drabek's kid from the Phillies in return. It looks bad now, but could wind up being lopsided in your favor very soon.

Bad Brett rears his ugly head in the 3rd quarter. 3 frickin' picks!
Childress is a moron for not challenging call on TD but even more for not trying to get points at end of first half. They still had two timeouts and like 50 seconds left. 30-40 more yards and they're in FG range. I just don't get it. A few bad calls went against us, especially Shiancoe TD catch, but that's not why we lost. Bad Brett and his 3 interceptions really killed us. 2-4 and not out of it yet but it's getting pretty damned close.

Three ponies left in the race... all with 10 wins

P-Dog - 'boys

bro gro - NYG 50

Ghaleon - NYG 56

I may be the only one, but I wish the NFL would adopt the one-foot in bounds only needed rule that they have in the NCAA. Fewer great plays would be disallowed like we saw at the end of the Vikes game.

Keep your head up Keefriff, my brother. The Cheese Heads aren't gonna do that s**t to you guys a month from now. Once it's in the dome, it'll be a different outcome . You got NE, ARZ & CHI coming up. Where I come from that's badda-bing, badda-boom, badda-bang .

Monday Night Showdown:

Grossnex (Giants and 50)

Ghaleon (Giants and 56)

Pukin Dog (with Dallas)

All with 10 skins...

If Dallas wins, PD's the man - straight up.

If the Giants win, and the total points are 53 or less, Grossnex is the man.

Giants and 54+...it's a repeat!!!

A Triple Threat Match for the title?

...will Grossnex & Pukindog team up & attack the Champ to take him out of the picture, after their storied history from The Worst President Thread? Or will Ghaleon, being a man with experience, use their differences against them to divide & conquer, thereby retaining his title? Tune in tomorrow night... Gotta love the drama . Am I wrong, or has it never been this close going into the MNF game?

The Bills should consider hiring a defensive coordinator.
