NFL WEEKEND!
I don’t need the Niners in the playoffs to be excited about this. Six playoff games this weekend? Giddyup. The entries continue to trickle in for the NFLBBB. Interestingly, several lurkers playing. I will update this thread once the Buffalo game starts with everyone’s guesses.
Without further ado, the contestants. Here’s the email I sent Katie time stamped to show I submitted my guesses first.
Rebecca: 274 colts, sea, bucs, tenn, bears, browns
Chi: 273: Bills, Sea, Bucs, Balt, Saints, Browns
MudMan: 282 Bills, rams, bucs, tenn, saints, Pitt
GH: 279 bills, sea, bucs, pitt, balt, Saints
MacDog: 306 bills, sea, bucs, balt, saints, Pitt
Unca Chuck 312: bills, bucs, saints, balt, pitt, Rams
Rachel: 286 Bills, sea, bucs, tenn, saints, Pitt
SportsDude: 317 bills, sea, bucs, tenn, saints, pitt
San Diggity Dawg: 268 Bills, Sea, Wash, Balt, Saints, Browns
The great DJ Loo: 284 colts, sea, bucs, tenn, saints, Pitt
bird dog: 279 Bills, Sea, Bucs, tenn, pitt, saints
unless I missed someone, that’s it. San Dawg subverted my angle of going low and getting everything below 271 by going 268. Goddamn you! lol. Sportsdude has everything over 317
12 players all playing for $120.
GH and birdog submitted the same # and at 285 Rachel and Loo would tie. Also, 272 would tie me and Chi. I think that’s it
Looking forward to seeing exactly whose money I will be taking. 😉
On MLBTR is story about Angels clubhouse guy who is suing them for firing him, etc. It’s long piece with 300 comments. But in main body of column is link to article by Ben Lindbergh for Ringer about use of substances on ball by pitchers. Bauer shows up a lot in this article, specifically over spikes in his spin rate as they relate to doctored substances. He even talks about researching different combos while at Driveline.
Fantastic read, with general estimate being 70% of ML pitchers are doctoring ball, and that adding to spin rate is big assist to Ks and overall effectiveness…including to Mr. Bauer.
At least they are not using flubber.
I’ve been using KY jelly for years in medium pitch softball.
Highly recommend!
Medium pitch softball?
Yup!
One league I even had the ump in my pocket…
Think out here it’s called Modified.
whoa James Hardy dead of heart attack at 64. Played prominent role in USF b-ball from 1975 on with Cartwright Winford Boynes et al, brief NBA career with NO and Utah Jazz. Those USF teams were great.
3 years USF went 74-16, including 29-2 1976-77. Also featured SF’s own Marlon Redmond of Balboa HS who spent few seasons as backup shooting G in NBA, and like Mr. Cartwright and Mr. Boynes, is still alive.
Damm I saw him play a couple times at USF’s tiny gym with Cartwright during the year they were undefeated late and looked like they were going to win it all! Great teams with plenty of talent! Real bummer we were the same age! Feels strange sitting in the stands back then at 19 and your watching 19 year old kids play and they were spectacular to see live..RIP James
Big Flavor right now:
ok, thread updated with the contestants
Whoa, are the Colts going to upset the Bills? So far Rivers is playing very well
Go, Bills!!!! Josh Allen, wonderboy.
Hi, girls. Recovering well from Covid. Sure could’ve been way worse. Latest book: https://amzn.to/36UtTKC
Good, Pawlie.
How were your symptoms?
blech
‘and me,’ Kiley
where did you learn English?
LinkedIn bio says he went to U. of Central Florida.
They teach grammar in college?
Diggs is the man!
Too receiver along with Danvte Adams in football!
Had him on my football fantasy team,he just lit 🔥 it up all year..
Named my team Diggs in a Blanket..
Stupid call going for 2 there..
It’s favored by some dumb new analytic crap, I think..
Nice pass defense…
Colts won’t go away and this time got the 2 pointer to cut it to 3. Bills better get there shit together and score are atleast eat the clock up..
After one game, on pace for 306.
Mathdog…
BILLS. WNY.
Rivers arm strength (or lack there of) was really apparent on that final drive
He slings the ball 3/4 now and has loss velocity a lot like Brees.They should both retire,but in Rivers case still banging out kids (what’s he up too 9?) another year at 25 mil he will go for so he can pop number 10 out with his wife..
Could see him going to another team though as Colts move on to Carson Wentz in a trade..
Affeldt and his wife had a kid during each of the Giants championship years. When she said no mas, I knew we were doomed.
Totally forgot Goff was hurt. Oooops
Ha, didn’t matter.
Wow. Wilson with a huge brain fart.
Rams unis look a lot like Chargers from a distance.
The numbers look like they’re made out of leftover beach ball material…
wow Rispoli with 3rd winner of day in Grade iii LaCanada Stakes at SA coming from off pace to win with Chilean import Sanenus.
Pronounced like my friend Lacognata…
Rosario’s horse clips heels of horse in front of him and stumbles, and he tumbles off her taking bridle with him on #6 horse in Las Cienegas. yikes awful looking spill.
Apparently both horse and rider OK yeow
Tough part of the game. But you get used to it. By and large, the game is much safer than it was in the old days
Poor guy that’s twice already since he’s been out here at SA meet.
I’ve seen a few that I swore would keep me away from the track forever.
Not gonna mention names, cause I wouldn’t want anyone you tubing ’em.
Always went back eventually…
What a play! Woods wide open in end zone TD Rams! F the m-fing Seachickens!
Through two games, on pace for 303.
I like these updates keep em coming
Game 6 could be quite a thriller here…
Because 6 is a “perfect” number you are guaranteed to get whole number projections after games 1,2 and 3 which are the divisors of the number 6…
Same thing through the first two games of a four game set, right? And four’s not perfect. Has the perfection of perfect numbers ever been good for anything or has it been a pointless obsession lo these many years?
I was wrong, Xoot.
Was hoping no one would notice…
Sorry.
Trivia: Last time Bucs won a playoff game and Washington won a home playoff game was by the same QB. Who is he?
i had to look this one up. There is some Flap connection here, my man Lukie played golf with this dude once.
Luke doesn’t post here but he lurks daily and I’ve known him since high school
Doug Williams?
I thought of him, Chuck, but Bucs won a SB long after he was gone…
Jeff Garcia?
Good tries, but no.
Well they just said that TB hasn’t won a playoff game since their super bowl win so it’s got to be brad fucking Johnson
Yes. I had a feeling they’d give it away at some point.
Johnson was Washington QB in home playoff win vs. Lions in ’99.
Fun fact: The opposing QBs in those games — Gannon for Raiders and Frerotte for Lions — also played for Washington.
Man, this Washington QB is playing his ass off.
Everyone in commercials is always doing something.
From dancing around like an idiot to shitting in a talking carton for their doctor.
So annoying.
The best way to watch anything is on DVR if it were only practical….
Shitting in a box near getting a camera shoved up one’s ass.
Beats
Dungy’s right.
Washington dawdles back to the huddle while time ticks away…
Heineken sure has impressed, what a throw for the TD after going to get X-rays for a possible collarbone injury.
Kid’s got the Rudy factor going..
JFK’s favorite beer…
Shoulda gone for 2 there!!
No, I’m wrong…
Hell of a game here. Heineken is playing out of his mind
And unfortunately his Heineken went flat in the end..
We’re halfway there. Total points 155, on pace for 310.
My 312 is MONEY!!!
Shit I might be low. I thought I’d be the highest but dude might take it.
Congrats Chuck! 1 more touchdown to hit it on the money. So close:(
Great idea Craig. lets do it again next week!
Chuck Post your venmo or address so we can pay up!
LOL< sportdude, don't concede yet. We're only halfway home. Got 3 more games to go today. You guessed 317 you didn't guess that just for Saturday's game did you? LOL what is going on man?
