At least one of those will be in the NFC Championship. They’ll have to go to Arlington to do it where you know who will be waiting to beat the snot out of them.
James Garner, hard line democrat though he was, was a decorated and wounded veteran of Korea.
Hell of a Rose Bowl, USC wins 52-49.
Yeah, Jim was lefty. However, I always enjoyed his acting even when the project was less than a success such as 1965's The Art of Love, 1966's Mister Buddwing and 1968's How Sweet It Is!--
My favorites were Darby's Rangers 1958, Cash McCall 1960, The Wheeler Dealers 1963, Move Over, Darling 1963, The Americanization of Emily 1964, 36 Hour 1964, Hour of the Gun 1967, Support Your Local Sheriff! 1969, Victor Victoria 1982, Sunset 1988 and his TV Series "The Rockford Files" 1974-1980 plus 8 "Rockford" specials 1995-1999.
If I recall right, in September of 1979, I auditioned for a two parter of "Rockford Files" as a Rock Star.
Would have been perfect... 
casting--
Rock star... 
my ass!
As Sonny says, I did not get the part-- Nor did I meet James Garner.

Hi Y’all!
My picks are:
Raiders
Lions (for the upset*)
Steelers
Packers
*There’s always at least ONE upset, no?
Good Lord!
Are you dressed as one of the “Merry” men there?
as one of the “Merry” men there?Yeah, that was from a local 1978 TV commercial where I was Robin Hood selling bedroom furniture I took from the rich for a deep discount sale price for all the poor folk in Southern California--
And it was not all work and no... 
play!
LoL!!!
Bender2, you’re such a hoot!
I always wondered what happened to Stinky Flynn.
Gadzooks and General Jackson-- I cried, singing "Ding Dong! The Witch... 
is dead--
Which old Witch? The Wicked Witch! Ding Dong! The Wicked Witch... 
is dead." when the Hilderbeast went down--
Now, second chorus... same as the first--
"Ding Dong! The Witch is dead... Which old Witch? The Wicked Witch! Ding Dong! The Wicked Witch is dead."
Two bitc-- Eh, witches... for the price of one!
Go, Megyn-- Take... 
Shep with you!
She looked so unhappy on election night. LOL.
Without further adieu
Impy’s playoff pickz
I really want to take the Raiders, so screw it I will. Texans have QB issues too.
I’m also taking the Dolphins, I’ve never snorted cocaine so I don’t know what my excuse is.
Seahawks, easy call (don’t embarrass me guys!)
And finally Diet Manning over the Pack
RAIDERS
DOLPHINS
SEAHAWKS
GIANTS
I musta hit my head. Gonna agree with you on 3 of the 4. Can’t take the Lions on the road in Coffetown.

And Jack Black's:
I'm sorry, I have read your threads before but I will admit I cannot decipher them. It must be that I can't decipher all the icons.
Homer Simpson? Mario? The Robot? It's a language I never learned.
Care to translate it into English for me (and others, i suspect).
The 'the girl doing the arm thingy' is Allegra. That picture was taken when she was serving in Iraq a few years ago standing a top a captured T-72 tank. I modified it for use in the Picks section with JJ Watts Texan and Earl Campbell Oiler jerseys.
Allegra left FR back when Mitt ran and went to the GOP Briefing Room. I have on and off communications with her the past few years when she has time and last I heard she was still working in the Middle East yet I assume she will be in attendance in her regular seat when her Texans take on Seven's Waiders this Saturday.
She is what I consider a very dear friend of the type where even when you have not seen nor talked for a long time, when you do get back together, it is like we never were apart.
As to the other 'characters,' they are on the side of the team they pick. In the current picks on the Radiers/Texans games, it has big'ol_freeper's Homer Simpson's avatar, Mr Potato Head's Potato head, Clet's Fried Loinchop, al_c's James Coburn, Alas Babylon! Mushroom Cloud & Imp's Da Bears avatar showing they picked Seven's Waiders which has 7 of 9's animated gif opposed Allegra's Texican one followed by the Navy CanDo's Benny Hill avatar, Enterprise, Jack Black & me picking the Houston Lads as shown below:
======Seven's Waiders at Allegra's Texicans==== Now, y'all all have a drink... 
or ten and relax--
Dolphins, huh?
Well done.
