My guaranteed winner this week: San Francisco. Last week Green Bay, still perfect for the season.

with JAX in the league, you might make it to 17-0.

I am sure many participating in those contests are perfect due to JAX. A good strategy is to select the big favorites the first few weeks until it is clarified who the good teams are. I failed to use that strategy this year.

There are the ‘sure thing’ teams, which I have already used, and the ‘iffy’ teams, which I am going through now. Of course any team playing Jacksonville is a good choice. We started out with 34 participants and it’s double elimination. There are six of us with perfect records left and fourteen eliminated so far.

BTW, every other time I have done this I’ve been knocked out by now...

Is Spurrier quarterbacking them again?

Halftime with my Boys leading 10-7... so to liven up the thread, last Tuesday there was a thread from the Guardian on "Why have young people in Japan stopped having sex?" and as I always do--

I went into... heavy research mode--

By the time I got back from Japan... the thread had been pulled!

Yet, my research stands as I cannot see how... it can be... the fault of the Japanese gals.

Can... you?

Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa Hooooooooooooooooo... Bendy, Go back and bring all them gals back here to Texas! We can give them better working conditions and I'll kick in anything Obamacare charges them--

Gadzooks, Rick. That's awful white... of you--

Well, baseball does have its place... occasionally... in football season--

Why is Obama sicking the NSA on Angela Merkel... as it is so apparent we need to keep our eyes on the Japs!

Re: Pharmboy, don't watch. Vick is back with a short leash on his Iggles and they'll eat Eli's lunch

Pharm, my deepest apologies... Vick crapped out early and got benched as your Jersey Jints are up 12 - Zip in the 4th quarter.

Re: Dude, you need to get a girlfriend.

Gadzooks, Jeff-- I have so many... I have to rent them out!

Yeah, Jeff, Bendy has a standing offer from null to take me off his hands... but I won't leave!

Neither... will I!

I left Bendy and things got so bad, I am having to take a second job selling beer... to pay my therapy bills!
