It's good you're not excusing the behavior, because the context doesn't mean jack shit. If the Eagles had been losing and therefore able to draft OJ Simpson, their fans would never have thrown bottles at Santa. If the Browns didn't need to win out, thered never have been Bottlegate. If Patrick Sherill was given a steady route instead of getting whatever leftovers were available, he wouldn't have given us the phrase going postal.

Simply put, the fans and the team mirrored each other, and it was pretty disgraceful.

Have the Vikings even thrown yet? Succesfully, I mean.



TB did it! He completed a pass!!!

Holy crap, I know I sent the picks, but after seeing that post went to look for it and it's not there, like it never existed. I wonder if I could dig through firefox history and find the data for that post. What the hell lol. I guess there's no point in resending after dropping two games. Fwiw I had 31-21 Chiefs and 24-21 Steelers. Apparently I gave waaaaaaay too much credit to the Texans lol.

You could play the odds and pick upsets for the remaining two games. Besides, you don't know if your opponent got both Saturday games right, or if he submitted predictions at all.

Hahaha it's okay. Like the Cowboys, I'll try competing again this coming fall season. For now I'll just enjoy watching the playoffs and publically guessing. I think I had picked Seahawks by 21-17, and Redskins by 14-13 in today's games, so nothing earth-shattering was going to happen either way. The Vikings already look like they could easily have proven me wrong.

How's that?

Tough call. It starts by looking like he's essentially pulled a Cousins and taken a knee instead of spiking it, but then he puts in his picks after that.

Overall the safer practice would be to treat it like he made a pick for the afternoon game, and then let him decide afterwards if he still wants to withdraw it.



Ah, there it is, the Viking implosion.

 

Edit: You don't give Teddy Bridgewater four TWO minutes! *snort*



Yeah I'm definitely out of the official prediction stuff, just posting for fun now :)



no way

lucky seahawks

Hah, oh man. I was hoping MIN could hold on, but that blown chip shot FG is EMBLEFUCKINGMATIC of the 2015 NFL season. It's just been a silly cartoon mess.
