That was a great pick (Cheifs), I really blew that call.

Owens has been pissing me off. He still suffering from the dropsies (he dropped at least one that I remember in that game, and another he should have caught even though he was covered, with a smaller defender on him. Then he goes and does the star number. If I was Mariucci, Id bench his ass. Ive actually been saying that for 2 weeks.

They both should have been flagged right at the start. though I can understand them giving Emmit leeway after Owens did it first. But still 49ers-Cowboys is a rivarly, everygame tends to be emotional.

Easy win next week for my boys though.

Well it seems I got the wish from my previous post. Next I’d like one million dollars US, small bills.

I’d like to formally welcome the Rams Defense. It tool them a while, but they finally decided to show up to a game. Let’s hope they stick around now.

I’d also like to say a big “Howdy!” to the Indy defense. Nice that they could make it.

Add the Lions offense to the “It’s about time” category.

Don’t worry, **Gazoo**. I forgive you for not picking them, even against the Bears. I figured they would win but it certainly wasn’t a gimme. But then, what is for this franchise?
