XFL Football: Live Thread 1

Tampa Bay over Meow York (is Manning their QB?)

No. It's Luis Perez, last seen in the huddle of the Birmingham Iron of the AAF. The kid who was a bowling prodigy, decided he wanted to give football a try, taught himself how to play by watching YouTube videos and went to a D-II school where he ended up winning that division's version of the Heisman Trophy.

A really cool story. He'll likely light-up the pro bowling circuit once he's done with second-tier football.

It’s football, I’ll be watching...

I’ll take

DC
HOUSTON
NEW YORK
DALLAS

Bender — hope the time in the shop gets the job done, sir!

[L,TOWM]

This week, I went with the team that had a QB that I recognized...

Matt McGloin and Landry Jones had their struggles in the NFL, but they should be men among boys in this league.

[HombreSecreto]

Total dart throwing!!!

Going all homer for Week 1:

DC
Houston
NY
Dallas

Am interested to see how the 1-2-3 pt conversions play out.

I’m going to flounder badly for a few weeks. By the time I get it figured out the season will be over.

OK, a less XFL-ish, more NFL-ish 'Let's Play A Game': Who can tell me what Ron Rivera's really thinking while he's staring at the back of Little Danny Snyder's thick skull? 😈

Close but no cigar--

Thanks to all of y'all for your prayers and support. Your prayers helped a great deal but I am not out of the woods yet.

Yesterday the doc did the scoop on me and the cancer has spread, but not very far he says. He took out as much as he felt he could and I will soon be seeing an oncologist for I assume chemo and radiation.

So, I feel somewhat both kind'a upbeat and kind'a raw, too, as it is not all over yet. I say 'yet' because I do feel with all the prayers I have received, my chances are excellent in beating this!

To all of you, dear friends and distant family, I love each and every one--

Take care & God Bless,

Danny

Go Renegades! Go Roughnecks!

[Viking2002]

An extra set of prayers up, Danny. I hope you aren't seeing my oncologist; he doesn't (don't say it Vike; fight the urge....... no; no; no; must fight.......).....gawd, no......KNOW HIS ASS FROM A HOLE IN THE GROUND!!!!!! HEE HEE HA HA HA HA HA........🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 That would explain the 'rawness'. (Jeez, where to they get their gear from? The Harbor Freight catalog?) They clipped five polyps from my municipal plumbing the last time 'the gopher went on holiday', if you get my drift. My mom (age 80, going on the last Egyptian dynasty) just went through the surgical/chemo/nuke treatment herself. (Picture a curmudgeon and a full-blown geezer locking horns. It's like a toxic waste spill at Christmas.) I'm heading back in next week because my PSA and liver enzyme levels are spiking again and they need to establish a new baseline. Suck it up, eat well, but just live a little. We're all on the same carnival ride, just in different cars. That's why we're FReepers. If you feel like you feel need to shoot the shit, You know where the IM button is.

Hey, Vision! I finally chased off the resident Salvation Army flophouse! WOO HOO!

[big'ol_freeper]

Prayers up.

Go BattleHawks!

[dp0622]

I’m going back to sleep.

But first I will say a bunch of prayers for you.

You will lick it. You’re a FReeper :)

I’m WAY behind on my followup colonoscopy after they found pretty big, though non cancerous polyps last time.

Like 6 years behind!!

Guess I want cancer. Lazy idiot that I am.

Well, let me go pray.

ciao

Viking, I’m sorry to hear about this, and I hope you can get over it quickly!

At least you and Mrs. Viking have your home back to yourselves again. :-)

I am sorry you need chemo and nuking but it sounds like it could of been much worse and you have a good chance to beat this. 🙏🙏🙏🙏

[Impy]

Sure thing!

[Impy]

Adding you, to XFL only and not NFL if I read you right.

Your welcome, Jim! Thank you for your game analysis!
