the only funny comment I read in the bowels of the ESPN comment section were people calling Jim Schwartz, Gym Shorts... I think I'm going to call him that from now on
 
Finally saw the highlights of the seahawks vs browns. I knew it was going to be a horrible game, but wow....
 
axl, how about we agree on these (50 * 50):

[added later] i found the transparent gifs we used last time. if you prefer, we can use these - either one is good for me:

I'm good on the above

alasdair is from the U. K. and favors a team called the Patriots... but I guess living in Harvard does the inane to a man ;)

he must be eagerly anticipating some avatar-revenge; it was real awesome seeing him sport some dirty Black + Yellow in that past avatar bet (last year: whichever one of our fan-favorite power-houses made it the furthest from the other in the AFC has to sport the other team's logo)

I usually don't do these type of bets, and it is never a good idea to bet against the Patriots...

but nary a more gentlemanly type of duel could be imposed one another. you see, being a fan of either the Steelers or the Patriots makes one of highest form of privilege ;)

a true Scotsman wouldn't dare root for a team called the Boston Patriots ;)
 
^ lol.

axl, props on having the balls to take the bet unlike some here i could mention (you know who you are...coughgmcough) :)

so jim and i agree that pats vs. steelers is the game of the week but we have eagles vs. cowboys to get excited about too. is this a 'must-win' game for both of these teams who have had their share of struggles so far this season? i think so.

i'd say the cowboys have the edge on defense - especially on the ground where they are #1 in football against the rush giving up a measly 70yds on the ground on average. eagles are better against the pass, however.

will murray have another huge game and blow the doors off?

dallas is coming off an easy game against the hopeless rams but the eagles are coming off a bye and are traditionally unstoppable after a week off.

who's going to win? the eagles are favoured by 3 points and i agree it's going to be a close one. i give the edge to the eagles at home. what say you?

Pats/Steelers should be a good game. Elite passing offense vs elite passing defense, somethings gotta give! Im calling the Pats go up early and Roflburgers throws a bunch of INTs trying to catch up.
 
yeah Care... I remember the two defeats that Roethlisberger handed the Patriots just like they were yesterday...

[reminiscing time coming in during an edit - after I get home from work :( ]
 
im lying in bed alone drinking whiskey straight out of the bottle because it's cold here and my fucking team is fucking losing to god damn china rider and pander is off shooting things because his god damn team has a bye.

at least the carolina/minnesota game is good.

what the hell is wrong in Baltimore? do they suck that hard nowadays? Flacco looks like absolute shit. what are they going to do when Ray Rice leaves?

FUCK YOU CHINA RIDER!

god fucking damnit!

the one time you win it's against my team! why not the bills and fucking generic mind?!
 
st louis has some magic in the air, athletically

blame it on that

or drew brees walking the dick

I <3 those yellow and blue uniforms, gonna rock my isaac bruce one, all week long
 
i gotta say i'm mad proud of Patrick Peterson. he did fabulous against my mommy's team of the Baltimore Colts/Ravens. That was a gorgeous run down the field for you, Peterson. He did great. Baltimore did terribly. Carolina should have won their game. They are like so irritatingly close that i feel i'll never be able to orgasm until they finally get their good, great, wonderful, win, like they could have had today. It's like I need to pee and can't until I see Cam Netwon pull one really great one out. Carolina played well. they played clean. Minnesota gave so much up for them. Carolina still failed. What do you need to do, i mean, jesus!? Carolina needs to get it together. I wanna believe that Carolina will be a great team in one, two years...

Maybe it's just personal but I hate seeing a Southern team do badly. Things could be better, and I don't want Cam Newton to be as tainted in the NFL as he was in the NCAA. He has great potential, he was a great quarterback. I hope he does well in Carolina.

gah
 
I dont understand how the Saints get owned by the Rams one week after putting up 60 points on the colts.
 
^ any given Sunday has never been more true than this season. I feel like the lockout made things even more inconsistent in that regard

but WOOO!! I just went to the #1 Steelers bar in Ohio to watch that black and yellow pull a magnificent victory over the hated Cheatriots. although I didn't express it too much in this thread, I was more confident in my team winning this game against New England than I've ever been. why, you ask? look at that New England secondary! they were atrocious in every single way. and the Steelers finally took a cue from the Pats in regards to how to run an offense. Big Ben - a QB who has never met a long ball that he's disliked - instead dinked and dunked away, implementing a more West Coast style of football. instead of NE's great Tight Ends in Gronkowski and Hernandez tearing up the mid-field, Pittsburgh's Heath Miller did the tearing up

great game, Ali. I do expect to see ya'll in the playoffs. my team was the best team tonight, but who knows what will happen in the AFC playoffs?

it looks like I'm 2 for 2 in avatar bets. I'm getting a little too high-horsed, here. but have no fear, Ali, I will join you in sporting that Stillers avatar for a week :D
 
cant wait till next week falcons get to play the colts.

meh, those games are no fun. the NFL matters most, specially as a fan of my team, when said team plays and bests good competition

next week, Pittsburgh finally gets into that Sunday Night Prime Time slot with a game against the divisional rivals, the Baltimore Ravens

playing the Colts, as New Orleans showed after this embarrassing loss, truly proves why such games mean nothing
