I calls 'em like I sees 'em, which, yes, drives people looney because they have never been introduced to the truth....No sugar-coating here...Sorry if that offends your sensibilities...


Let's see... Cal's defense set the tone of the game by forcing a fumble... recovering it... and scoring a TD after returning it 45 yards.

Oh yeah... the Cal defense also had a goal-line stand... keeping Tennessee off the scoreboard and giving the momentum back to Cal.

Yeah... I'd say the Cal defense completely sucked.

Scoreboard....Lots and lots of points....Not a defensive gem, as they (and I) say........

Class dismissed...

I'm in.
Game of the week is tomorrow night - Saints @ Colts.


Not much of a game of the week.

Are the Saints overrated this year??? Last seasons "feel good" story.

I hope and think last night was an aberration. The Colts lost several defensive starters in the off-season, so I figured the Saints would have their way with them.

Trouble is, one of those starters now plays for the Saints, and he was getting burned all night.

The Colts D is faster than before, and the Saints just never could get anything started, using their usual game plan.

They should learn and adjust.

I hope.

So Steve - I was thinking, to make things somewhat entertaining for the rest of you, why don't you just give me 65% of the prizes up front right now and I will bow out gracefully?

That way its over and done with and the rest of you can fight for the other 35%.

Deal?

Nate, Nate, Nate,

The first weekend isn't even done yet. Let's see if you can walk that walk.

I'll leave the prizes for all of y'all to fight over. I am in it just to prove my superiority.

That's the hook rlsliger! If I let y'all win early, it gives a false sense of confidence and you'll continue to play. tongue.gif

Guess I did not read the instructions very well- I only picked this weeks games ( and did poorly) and then found out that ALL WEEKS picks had to be done prior to the First Game...

Oh - well - maybe again next year...

Another great  day in the adventure of exploration and sight.

Wow, what happened to those power-house Chicago Bears?? That 'thud' sound I heard must have been the Bears and their fans plummeting back down to Earth. How many turnovers?? Man, how the mighty have fallen....and so quickly.
