Gadzooks, big! My Boys sure crapped in their own nest tonigth... didn't they?

I don't see much hope of them doing anything in the playoffs even if they get in... especially after the past two games of the defense had been unable to make any crucial stops.

Guess I am going to be forced to go into full blown... Old Dallas Texans mode to have any fun in the playoffs!

Why am I in a tux? I had to make a martini run to Walmart... and all my sweatsuits were dirty--

While I was busy watching cartoons on Fox, The fighting Rapesthbergers were busy kicking Cincys ass. Don’t those knuckleheads know they could get a first round bye?

“Don’t those knuckleheads know they could get a first round bye?”

Their clock management as the end of the half had the announcers perplexed too. It starts with the head coach.

CIN will never have success with Lewis as HC.

Yes, Lewis, I would have canned him before this year.

He might be in trouble in he can’t win a playoff game. He’s 0-4. Lovie at least won some.

What you guys should be watching is what I have on Tivo: Trouble Along the Way that is one of the best football films ever even if it was made in 1953--

"You'll find the answer in Deuteronomy, Chapter 32, Verse 15... Well, well? Is there a Bible in the house, or do you have to go to a hotel?"*

"Oh, it's a fine game, football - noble game. Originated in England in 1823... An enterprising young man named William Weber Ellis - who studied for the ministry, by the way - found his team behind in a soccer game, so he picked up the ball, and ran through the amazed opponents for a thoroughly illegal touchdown. And that's how football was born - illegitimately. So, it moved to America where someone took advantage of a loophole in the rules, and invented a little formation called the Flying Wedge. So many young men were maimed and killed by this clever maneuver that President Roosevelt - Theodore Roosevelt - had to call the colleges together and ask them to make the game less brutal. He was, of course, defeated in the next election. In spite of this setback, football became an industry. The price of a good running back often surpassed the salary of a professor. And when some righteous committee unearthed this well-known fact, there was always a coach that took it on the chin. I just got tired of picking myself up."

"Couldn't he have booked one protestant school along the way... for a breather?"

"Here's to the coaches finally... making as much money as the players!"

* But Jeshurun waxed fat, and kicked:

** Trouble Along the Way is available at Netflix

Thursday Football is over.

Lets see how did I do. I’m 8-7 as well, AZ beat the Titans, YES. They used to be the Chi Cardinals so I like them of course.

We go head to head tomorrow.

NFC North and East are out of wildcard race. If:
Det 10-6
Chi 10-6

all the other teams have tiebreaker vs. CHI, so they would be out.

MIA and BALT both have tiebreaker vs. CINN ... bengals could be left out. If MIA wins out, they are in. IF BALT wins out, they are division winners.

Cardinals have a tough task next week, @ SEA.

I wish the Bears played in the AFC North, 4-0 in those games that are meaningless for tie-breaking purposes.

Bengals really bungled today. Hilarious they could lose the division or even miss the playoffs altogether.

Well Bend, "crapped in their own nest"
was not quite the words I was
thinking, but defense does not seem to be a strong suit for either team

Apparently the Defense thought the game was over at halftime and went out to celebrate.

Cowboys hold moment of silence for the defense

"We ain't dead!!"

"You were in the second half"

You mean my 11-3 Kansas City Chiefs? The team that teased the Raiders by letting them pull within 4 before running off another 21 unanswered points and two more picks? The team that scored within the first 20 seconds on a 49 yard screen pass? That Kansas City Chiefs?

Should be a great game next week against the Colts. Arrowhead will be rocking. The smoke from the tailgaters will be thick. And my boyfriend (whatta guy!) surprised me last night with tickets to the game as an early Christmas present.

Yes, under Rob, they only had the SECOND worst defense in NFL history.
