  1. You'll have to trust that I picked KC (I put it in my Yahoo picks but forgot to post here).
  2. My 115 points and 5-1 record places me in the 98th percentile of all ESPN.com players right now :) This is completely out of character for me, I used to almost take pride in my ability to get under 40% of the bowl games right.
  3. Now THAT was one way to take my UC virginity. Hell of a fun game :) My water truck and my bagel won their scoreboard races which just made it that much more fun.
  4. Yeah, before the playoffs begin they'll have announced when the Bears play. I'd guess the Sunday late game if I was a betting man.
  5. Ball State's streak of close L's continues with a 67-60 defeat to Tennessee State. Silver lining is that Skip Mills (26 points, 9 rebounds) looks to finally be back on his game. Next is another sacrificial lamb game at IU, then conference play begins.
  6. what went horribly wrong? and yeah, i told you guys that byu was really good. And yet you only put 15 points on them in the ESPN Pick Em game. Is that it? I did those picks about 15 minutes before the first game started, so I blew through the confidences pretty quickly. Still, I'd guess most people put less than 15 points on that game. I put 26 on the Cougs and am currently leading the NSBB league :D
  7. I'll be at the game tomorrow. Let's rebound (literally and figuratively).
  8. That it was. We EASILY should've won by at least 3 TDs. Another game where we outgain the opponent heavily, in terms of total yardage, and we still barely win the game. We outgained Detroit by over 200 yards last week and only won by 8 and we outgained the Bills by almost 200 yards and still found a way to lose by 14. Regardless though, our D is improving as the season goes on. Aaron Kampman is becoming a stud and we're actually starting to get pressure on the QB now. I'll take the W. We have a decent chance at finishing 8-8 as we will more than likely play against the Bears 2nd and 3rd stringers for about 3/4's of the game next Sunday. Hopefully the Giants, Falcons, and Rams lose on Sunday... HAHA...good luck with that. Weinke and his 17-game losing streak as a starter are starting again Sunday.
  9. Maps for Sunday: http://gribblenation.net/nflmaps/16-FOX.gif http://gribblenation.net/nflmaps/16-CBS-E.gif http://gribblenation.net/nflmaps/16-CBS-L.gif
  10. Don't worry, they'll let you down once conference play starts. They'll have to work hard to do so, as they have the easiest Big East schedule you could draw up (no Pitt, no UConn, and two games each against USF and Providence). Sort of a makeup for those years where they were forced by ESPN to play Cuse, Pitt and UConn twice a year. That will just make it all the more agonizing for you to watch. And, as a side note, I say this not as a Notre Dame hater because I'm indifferent to their basketball team, but since your teams have consistently let you down over the past year. Word to that. I'll enjoy it for now until the inevitable meltdown :D

  12. ND clobbers Army 88-47 (Army scored 11 points in a row near the end of the game to make it look a little less bad for them). That team is just so darn fun to watch. I haven't seen a team I followed spread the ball around like they do in a long time. Next will be Rider a week from tonight.
  13. I also took Green Bay.
  14. Hendry is totally and deeply in love with Cesar Izturis. Why again must we wait to crucify him? I'm pretty much ready now. What would happen if Izturis plays well next season? If Mr. Career .295 OBP plays well next year then that will probably mean we are the luckiest team in baseball. Slightly below average would be a stunning success.
  15. Put Pujols in over Brock Easily
  16. Waste of money. How about a CF?
  17. Would you have said the same thing about Indy last year? The playoffs are a crapshoot mostly The Colts are the Colts, of course I wouldn't have said the same thing last year :wink:
  18. I'll eat my own right foot if anyone but SD gets out of the AFC
  19. I put 31 on TCU. Garrett Wolfe is awesome, but TCU's run defense is better. Frogs win 37-7. Wow.
  20. Woo! Go Bulls! Looks like I missed a good one (although I've been very good about not missing many games this year).
  21. Ball State blows a 22-9 lead and loses to Temple at home 75-70. :( That was our chance to springboard into a fantastic rest of the season, but instead it's just another L. 4-7 now. ND cruises over Portland 86-69, with Russell Carter scoring a career-high 28 and Rob Kurz aka the best white post player this side of Chapel Hill puts up 21 and 11. BSU will next play against Tennessee State on the road on Friday. ND hosts Army on Thursday (I'll be there).
  22. I can live with that, I guess.
  23. Wow... 5-1 in that division and no playoffs.. That's just sick. Well, a 3-7 out of division record will do that to you...
  24. They have ND going 26-3, with their remaining 2 losses coming by 4 points total. (Actually it projected 24-5, but game by game it came down to 26-3) This means, of course, that these ratings have lost all credibility.
  25. Panthers pretty much have no shot, although they could finish 5-1 in the division, which is something to shoot for, anyway.
