Season's End...FB/fb 6 (I think) post season.

[Tom]

Well, my Browns are out of it despite a breakout season for them, so the playoffs are beginning and we gotta have a thread to see the season thru!

So put yer pics in here and lets see who ends up stranded on the Island.

[Siberman]

Never thought I'd hear the noize
Of another year of the COWBOYZ
Everybody thinks I'm TOYZ
(In the Attic) 'cause I believe my BOYZ

Will prevail in this season
I know it's far beyond reason
That Misters Romo and Owens
And don't forget, Terry Glenn

Will play their way throughout
All the rumors and the doubt
And win the championship, you see
Of the coveted NFC

Then they'll go to a higher plain
Take those Patriots with much pain
And in the end reclaim the fame
That has a "BIG D" as its name.

[MADLisa]

GO BR---

Oh, nevermind.

uhh.... who am I going to be going for?

-- L

[Heather]

Go for the Packers Lisa. :) I'd go for them but I know nothing about this game :)

[Tc2]

OK, I'll give this a shot even though I got slaughtered in the college bowl games:
Redskins at Seahwks - Redskins
Jaquars at Steelers - Steelers
Giants at Bucs - Bucs
Titans at Chargers - Titans.
I know some of you will look at that and understand why I got clobbered with the bowl picks - but hey, I got WVU, Michigan, Penn State and Kansas right. I would rather not talk about the others :o

[kwj]

I'm in:

Redskins
STEELERS
Bucs

Chargers and 36pts.

[Tc2]

Is 36 points the tie breaker?? And if so, does it have to be on a specific game? Well, I guess I''l keep the last game and say 41 points.

[Dinosauer Fishkeeper]

Good to see old friends here, and while this thread should end at the Super Bowl, it is nice to have it carry forward. Thanks Big Guy! Nice to see TC2 on board, you got it on the total points for the tie-breaker, and I can sympatize with the NCAA FB, USC did me proud, but the VA types are highly cheesed.

Good recommendation of the Pack Lisa, Heather done good. Of course they have no hope in hell, but your geldings are a lost cause.
p.s. package arrived, I am awestruck.

Anywho, Seahawks over Skins
Steelers over Jags
Giants over Bucs and
Chargers with 33 points.

Best of luck to all. DF

[kwj]

Yes, Tc2. We use the last game as a tiebreaker. We take one team or the other and what we think the final point total will be. Person closest in points with the correct winning team wins. :)

[Brandon]

colts to the sb... to not win.

[Ayelandgirl]

OK, better to get in the game while I can this weekend. (I have a feeling it's going to be a long one *sigh*)

Steelers
Seahawks
Bucs
Chargers 35pts

[Siberman]

Skins
Jaguars
Giants
Chargers.....35 total points.

[kwj]

phhht! As usual the Steelers blow it at the last second. *shaking head* You would think that the team would learn from their mistakes. Especially the "I'm just going to try and hug you tackle". I bet those two tackles get reamed for not bringing down the guy who sacked Rothlisberger.

Don't faint Siber but: GO COWBOYS!!!

[Siberman]

*****thud*****

[Tc2]

Thank you DF and KWJ. As you can see by my picks, it's a good thing I'm not a gambler. Oh, and if siber doesn't come to by tomorrow, I have the ice water and smelling salts ready. Don't worry, we won't use the smelling salts unless the first eight tons of ice don't work :D

[Don D]

Argh! The only team that won that I would have picked were the G-men. I swear, it looked like neither the Skins or the Steelers realized that this was it, no more after. *shakes head*

Anyway, GO PATS! The Girls might make it to the big one, and Im not so sure about that, but they will face either the Pats or Colts if they do, and they aint gonna beat them. So enjoy what you can Siber. :D

[kwj]

Hey Don, haven't youlearned yet to never say never?


*fans Siber with a terrible towel* Wake up Siber. The team needs you.

[kwj]

This isn't NFL related but:GO BUCKEYES!!!!! :)

[Dinosauer Fishkeeper]

Gulf Coast Girl saying "GO BUCKEYES" :eek: I guess congrats to LSU, but USC Trojans should have been there. As to last weekend, Siber and DF are tied at 3, Ayeland with 2, and KWJ with 1. Note to TC2: If anyone invites you to Vegas? Don't go!!! :cool:

The Tie goes to DF with 33 of the 23 points scored.

Glad to see you alive and kicking DD!

DF

[kwj]

This Gulf Coast Girl has never in all her 48 years rooted for or cared if lsu won. NEVER. Needless to say it caused some very fun, heated exchanges in our house. :D

[Tc2]

Well, I guess we need to post our picks for this week. I'll start so y'all know who not to pick ;)
Seahawks @ Packers - Packers
Jaguars @ Patriots - Jaguars
Chargers at Colts - Colts
Giants @ Cowboys - Cowboys ... 40 points total


And DF, thank you for warning me not to go to Vegas :D
KWJ - I was rooting for the Buckeys also, what a disappointing game. :( I'm not a buckeyes fan, just dislike LSU more, but do enjoy a good game regardless of who plays, and the national chumpionship game was not entertaining IMO.

[kwj]

I'm in:

Sat:

Seahawks
Patriots

Sun:
Colts

Cowboys and 36pts.

[Don D]

Packers, Pats, Colts and Giants in a 24-17 upset.

[Siberman]

Packers
Patriots
Chargers
Cowboys.....45 total points

"Get yo popcorn ready.":D

[Ayelandgirl]

Ok...here we go:

Packers
Pats
Colts
Cowboys - 49pts

[Dinosauer Fishkeeper]

Getting down to the wire!!!

Pack
Patriots
Chargers
Cowboys 35 total points

Best of luck to all! DF

[kwj]

Popcorn? I've got chili and bread and beer hon. Bring on the games. :)

[Dinosauer Fishkeeper]

Well that was interesting~~

TC2 and Karen with 1
Ayeland with 2

3 way tie with 3 picks each for Siber, DonD, and DF. Delineator was the Chargers and Colts. Taking it to total points, DonD wins with 41 total out of 38 scored. Congratulations.

Siber? Tell Romo that the next times his offensive line asks for nekkid pics of his "girl", probably should humor them.;)

Next week, as much as I like the Chargers, I can't see them taking on the Pats.

I will take the Packers and 33 total.

Very best to all, DF

[Tc2]

Yes, that was interresting, I actually got one right. I was very surprised by the colts and cowboys. Oh well.
This week I will take the chargers and the packers with 40 points total.

[Siberman]

Just in case y'all hear about a fan driving to Dallas and whooping half the team, please come get me out of jail.

Chargers

Packers....????....-28F wind chill expected?......27 total points

[kwj]

Patriots though they will probably lose just to make my life miserable. ;)

Packers and 28pts

[Ayelandgirl]

Hmmm...

Pats
Pack 37pts

[Don D]

Pats
Packers, though I think the Giants might make it a game for a little while. 31-17

[Dinosauer Fishkeeper]

Good Sunday Afternoon all. Picks is in. I did have a moment when I was going to change to the Chargers, but sanity prevailed. Best of luck to all.

DF (Where's the Guiness) :p

[Siberman]

*Sittin' here with a roaring fire , a half gallon of "Mississippi Mud" (kind of a Guiness lite) and a fifth of Crown*

What can I say ? Just watching GB gives me the shivers. :rolleyes:

BTW, gg Chargers. ;)

[Siberman]

Oh yeah, by the way:

Good Sunday Afternoon all. Picks is in. I did have a moment when I was going to change to the Chargers, but sanity prevailed. Best of luck to all.

DF (Where's the Guiness) :p

That Wild Turkey's a booger, ain't it, DF? :p

[Don D]

Well now, that was a surprise wasnt it? Its the other Manning now.

[Siberman]

I'm starting to believe that Archie has mafia connections.;)

[Siberman]

Patriots.....51 total points.

[kwj]

I guess the Patriots and 64pts.

If he did Siber, maybe we should take the giants.;)

[Dinosauer Fishkeeper]

Am a little late with this, but last week I think Ayeland has the win based on total points. Lots of 1/1 with the Pack OVER the Giants:confused: SB it is hard to go against the Pats, so I won't. 45 total points.

DF

[Ayelandgirl]

Hmmm...I suppose I should post my pick for the Stupi...er, I mean Super Bowl ;)

Pats and 54 total points

[Tc2]

Well, I guess I have to agree with you all that it's tough to go against the Pats, that said, I'll take the Giants and 49 points ;)

[Dinosauer Fishkeeper]

I admire TC2 for the strength of the convictions. So far only taker on Giants. I admit to be wavering just a tad, but I don't have the Cojones to change.
Reaffirming Patriots and 45 points. Game is at six, so everyone has time to post choices/scores.

As always, Very best of luck to all.

DF

[Dinosauer Fishkeeper]

In the 6 or so years that I have been the FB/FB "bookie" Never had an easier job declaring a winner. Mega Congrats to Tc2 for the Giants win!! :D

Lot's of $$ changed hands on this game I betcha! One of the most interesting/best SB's I have seen.

DF

[kwj]

Oh My Gosh! What a game. CONGRATS Tc2 on a great win. One of the best defensive games I have ever watched. Have fun on the Island Tc. :)

[Tc2]

Being a rookie to winning anything, I have to ask - do I get the island until pre-season :cool: ? All are welcome of course, I'll be stocking up on dark chocolate, cookie dough (not cookies, just the dough) and of course beef jerkie and pepsi.
In all seriousness, that was a fantastic game - especially for anyone who enjoys defense. If all the games were like that I don't think I'd have any fingers left - gotta love the nail biters.

[Ayelandgirl]

Congrats on the win, Tc!!
As far as I remember, the Island is at your disposal until the start of the regular season (someone correct me if I'm wrong). Oh, you may want to have the natives clean up from my last stay - lots of little umbrellas everywhere :cool:

[Tc2]

Cool, gots me a few months to vegitate. Those little umbrellas will come in handy for the lizards, they need shade once in a while too you know.

[Ayelandgirl]

Shade for the lizards - now that's what I call recycling, Tc!

[Don D]

Been busy. Would have lost anyway LOL.

THAT was a football game. Now I am waiting for the commercials...

[Siberman]

TC, please leave the jacuzzi alone. Blue and siver coralline algae is an endangered species.
You may party in there all you want but I warn you ; 1% drop in salinity or even the smell of an algae scraper and I'll have PETA on your butt! :p

[Tc2]

Is that what that stuff was?? well, I tossed in a few lionfish (cause I think they're neat) and several stonefish just for my PETA friends. By the way, if you visit you might want to stay away from the pool, I added a few friends there too. I've noticed the natives don't come around any more, go figure. By the way, why would PETA care about ... nevermind....
