Re: NFL Playoff Pick'em

I realized that, in my post-depression, I forgot to update the standings, which I will do shortly.

In the mean time, thought you guys might like this brilliant idea from a Packer forum I sometimes visit, posted by "Mr Fixit":

Quote:

I hear ya gracias,

but robots and lasers and computers could make it so there are no mistakes. If a robot can build a car, and computers can fly the space shuttle, and lasers can drop a bomb with pinpoint accuracy, then they should be used to make NFL officiating mistake free.

Quote:

That's all I got to say for now, gotta run some errands. But think about it. Why not use computers, lasers and robots? Each play could be scanned as it unfolds, play recognition software could determine any and all infractions, and robots could make the calls. In fact, the robots could fly around on wires like the camera's do, and stay out of the way of the players. How many games have been blown because the ref was in the way?

You guys might not like it, but only when the games are officiated by computers, lasers, and robots will travesties like that one that befell Packers Nation when the worthless refs stole the game from us be averted.

ROBOTS, LASERS AND COMPUTERS ARE THE ONLY WAY!

Standings:

1. KillerGremlin - 15

GO CHARGERS!! LT ELECTRIC GLIDE!!

Re: NFL Playoff Pick'em

Haha @ Cardinals D. Given up 90 points through 6.5 quarters so far.

Re: NFL Playoff Pick'em

Got to like the Saints and the very classy Mr. Brees. I hope they win the Superbowl for New Orleans.

Yeah, that's definitely where my rooting interests lie now. I have to give back to New Orleans what it gave me on Halloween night which was pure insanity.

Re: NFL Playoff Pick'em

New Orleans vs. San Diego still seems plausible. I'm hoping for just that.

Re: NFL Playoff Pick'em

I went up a spot! Maybe the teams that I gave higher numbers to will benefit me in the long run.

Re: NFL Playoff Pick'em

Epic loss here by the Cowboys. It makes me so very happy. Now the Saints just need to kill Favre and everything is good.

Re: NFL Playoff Pick'em

Oh Brent, I had to love your rendition of "pants on the ground." Still like Farve, still strongly dislike the Vikings.

Re: NFL Playoff Pick'em

I prefer Jimmy Fallon's version of Pants on the ground.

Edit: This will be terrible for me if the Jets end up winning.

Re: NFL Playoff Pick'em

Oh gawd, the Jets may do it.

:D

Come on

Re: NFL Playoff Pick'em

God Damnit San Diego. I can't believe that Kaeding has missed 3 field goals in this game. It should be 17-16 right now, not 17-7!

Re: NFL Playoff Pick'em

Good for the Jets. Rivers displayed his lack of class well.

1. BreakABone - 51
2. KillerGremlin - 49
3. Gambit X - 47
4. Typhoid - 46
4. Germanator - 46
