I started making up this long involved post which needed a lot of editing in order to make it more presentable here sometime on Monday, Dec 28. I then put it aside to finish later. I believe everything is still up-to-date. In any case, you might want to double check with this more recent Yahoo Sports piece.

It's the same url as the link at the top.

The season ended a couple months ago for the Browns.

Heck...I’m not sure it ever started.

they could still do my jets a solid this weekend and win.

But if the Jets win they are in anyway.

five game streak. Doesn’t seem real.

a good QB AND a good coach.

I sent hat guy who broke Gino’s jaw a 50 dollar check :)

Personally, I can’t wait to see the powerhouse matchup between the Bears and the Lions.

I’m a longtime Colts fan, since the days of Johnny Unitas and the 1971 Super Bowl, which they won vs the Cowboys. A couple of weeks ago they looked like a sure shot to clinch their comparatively weak division, but then lost to their main rivals, the Houston Texans, which really put them in a difficult spot. At this point it will take a miracle for them to make the playoffs.

Or perhaps a somewhat “deflated” ego.

LOL! Isn’t that a battle for last place (and a better draft pick)? I dunno. I haven’t watched the Lions in 20 years. The last time the Lions won a title was 1957. I was a 7 year-old kid. We did not own a t.v. at that time. Most people on our street didn’t. The neighbor 2 doors down did. He was a ham operator with the large antenna and a t.v. My dad and I went over to watch the Lions win 59-14 over the Browns. I still remember it. I was a fan for a long time. I gave up. I would rather pick rocks out of my car tires than watch the Lions. I wish them no ill-will. My Sundays have been OUTSTANDING for the last 20 years. Good luck to all long-suffering fans.

I suffered through the Sullivan's and now Seattle guy in New England.

The closest we came to a trifecta was with a crime family.

For the Bills...the season was over the day they hired Rex Ryan. They’re lucky to be 7-8 and won’ make 8-8, against the Jets.

Oh yeah, the Jets Offensive Coordinator is a former Bills Head Coach, and the Jets QB is a former Bills QB.

What a bunch of losers.
