Nothing to bitch about. You're doing a good job Commish ...

Everyone made it easier this week by not picking the MNF game  probably because 3 forgot to make their picks

Sorry to bug ya, but can you send me your address again. I deleted it, and thought Barry would help me out, but he's M.I.A.

Funny thing is the shipping truck is supposed to show up on tuesday the 26th to pick up this damn Samsung 75in 4K UHD that started having problems after 2 hours AND Best Buy will also be delivering the NEW LG 75in 4K UHD at the same time.

This one cost a bit more but if it works and doesn't have any problems it will be worth the money

Hey Commish, I believe I hit a parlay in Week 2 with NE/MIA/ATL.

Hey Commish, I believe I hit a parlay in Week 2 with NE/MIA/ATL.

You did even better than that Kami

I mixed up that Miami pick and had it as -4.5 instead of + 4.5 so I sort of fixed that

GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR  

Well I wonder how long this will last

[R&R]

No bitch, just an enhancement suggestion based on playing a while (including a 2nd place finish one year & setting the regular season points earned another). It seems to me like we bust our asses during the regular season and don't get too much for it (2 pts div lead and 1 pt wildcard I believe). When you look at the coin tosses and other pure luck calls involved in the existing Super Bowl points system it appears unbalanced (earning pts vs shit will do for brains when you're lucky)..

So, lets get a little more credit for reg season guesses like 5 pts for div winners and 2 or 3 or for wildcards..

Might think about that next season if we can actually get a normal number of players who will make the picks AND mail the *Chips* .......adding the Over/Under is a big difference in the regular season as it is.

BUT my bitching of the day is that my laptop that is 5yrs and 4 months old decided it will not boot up any more and since the disc player died a long time ago I can't even load a new OS in the damn thing so I lost a million files and other things I used every day and here is one of those places........only good thing was I copied a bunch of pictures last month and put them on 2 of my desktops........but still this really sucks and I will have to make the climb upstairs every time I want to get on a computer. (I blame CCleaner hacked program)

And I won't be buying a new laptop since I just am in the middle of paying cash for the new 75in 4K UHD to replace the same thing I got a couple weeks ago and will have to wait for those bastards to give me my money back.........which reminds me I don't have any of my links to any of my bank stuff or bill paying stuff or anything now

Good thing I do still have anything I have saved on my Hotmail account (I invented the "Cloud" in 1999)

Also glad I saved all my bbcodes for the stuff I do here since I don't want to type that out every week.

BUT I did lay in bed (back problem again) and watched the Presidents Cup where the people all yell USA USA USA USA as our team is kicking golf ass and NOBODY is kneeling down and bitching that they are all slaves getting shot by the police

[Magic]

Good thing this isn't still on the espn message boards (those boards are gone of course)

The only reason I have been there the last few years is playing pigskin pickem' and streak for the cash where we pick all kinds of sports contests from soccer over in Europe and SA and all the other one or 2 sports those commies play and all the sports here.

Well today and yesterday I was seeing these picks for something called "legend of legends" but it didn't say what the hell sport it was and the teams had these stupidass names like you would see lilwayne or snoopdogg call his recorded trash

http://www.espn.com/esports/story/_/id/18453247/the-2017-league-legends-espn-esports-homepage

So this morning I had to look it up after it was over to find out wtf this is........FUCKING VIDEO GAMES

I bet we see this shit in the Olympics in the near future.......hell we already have snow boards and skateboards there.

[=SA=]

R & R

I wrote the exact same thing ten years ago when I first joined. It's as if all the hard work is thrown out the window and things really start during the play offs. Then, the Superbowl is weighted so heavily you could do shitty the whole year but if you are lucky enough to pick coin flips, back flips, who kicks the first field goal, yada, yada, yada you become the expert handicapper for the year.

Okay, I'll crawl back into my little hole ...

[Magic]

That only happened once when the lawyer chick won.........and you don't want to piss her off =SA=

[Guest]

All that's well and good, but my bitch is that I was told there would be bourbon and wild women involved and I've yet to see either materialize.

Now Kurt did you forget that giant 10 gallon bottle of Makers Mark I gave you last year (or maybe the year before)???

Now as far as women go......well they are ALL wild and sometimes not the particular wild you might want

And just in case your wife ever gets on the home computer........that is all I have to say here

[Magic]

Good to see you all excited and checking the current standings and the new Division standings

[Guest]

Dude... look at my score. My season is mimicking that of my local franchise. Not much to get excited about on either front.
But wait! Last place finisher gets their money back, right?

But wait again... HOW many "Pay-to-play(ers)" do we have? Getting my chips back may equal the winner's share...

[Magic]

Well it was the easiest thing for me to do here this season collecting those Chips and posting who sent them in

I am thinking of just posting everything in black text on a white background all wrinkled up like last weeks newspaper instead all the other things I usually do here.......including the weekly points and standings.

[Magic]

WIDE OPEN TD VIKINGS  

LOL and the extra point BLOCKED

[Magic]

How did the Chargers get all their own refs in this game?

I hope all the refs get  a turkey stomach ache  

ANOTHER missed extra point????....WTF?????  

This has to be an NFL record for the most missed extra point kicks

The cowboys officially SUCK

[=SA=]

Yo, Commish! Can you please remind me how many wild card teams at end of year without ridicule?

I thought not

Only two Wild Cards cuzzz......and you know I am always a  

AND you even spelled "ridicule" right so I can't tease you as far as literary skills

Now I do hope you mean how many Wild Card members HERE and NOT in the NFL Playoffs  

(oh and since you all complain about it since Miggs was the one who made the Rules the Division Winners get 3 bonus points and the Wild Card winners get a 1.5 point bonus)

Of course Division winners always think they should get 30 bonus points  

[Guest]

And former Rudy Award winners think any player with a "K" in their name should get 10 pts.
