Give him a few days. He’s probably feeling redundant right now. 🙂

Speaking of football. What the hell happened with that Redskin curse? The Packers fell down on that one. They screwed it up somehow. I don’t know how but somehow.

Be prepared to renovate Lambeau after we leave. You’re going have the same problem you always have when we play there…too much Moss in the endzone. 😛

Reeder was given a one-month suspension for failure to adhere to board rules.

This has probably been on SDMB already, but if not, it explains everything

My wife sent me that a couple weeks ago. It’s saved to the HD. 😃

**Dio** , Moss is about due for a major tantrum. (Think Jack Chick showing up at **Reeder** ’s door on a Sunday morning) 😃 Shall we bet next year’s membership fee on it? :dubious:

If Moss was healthy, you’d be on, but he’s nursing a bad hammy right now and I don’t know if he’ll be 100% against the Packers.

At least he still hasn’t missed a start. That pussy QB of yours could learn a few things from Moss about playing with pain. 😉

You’re just begging for 2 pit threads in one week, aren’t you? :dubious: 😃
