Thanks again to all who posted good wishes (and to those who relayed derision from the Old Grey Birdcage Liner...) Arthritis in the scrolling finger has taken its toll, goose. At least I can still legibly sign my social security checks.

Thank you, all! Hope all is well.

Just call them what they are, exhibition games. These have to either be the easiest games in the world to bet or the hardest, team quality means virtually nothing, motivation is everything. -

The Official 2023 NFL season thread
laughedatbytime replied to laughedatbytime's topic in One Little Victory
Interesting idea, but while the financial structure of baseball lends itself to large, ongoing and reasonably geographically ingrained advantages for certain teams, the same is not true for football, so these things should work themselves out over time, rather than recurring to the advantage of the same teams. I would have less trouble with it in football than baseball for that reason. If it does work that way though it should be in conjunction with evening out the schedules in any given year, which would reduce the games between traditional rivals, which I don't like, so after all is said and done, I'm ok with the only occasional "unfair" anomalies that result at present. I would support HFA for the team with the better record. -

You mean the sack that made it 4th and 8? -
A mediocre Cub who, like many in his era, excelled after leaving the Cubbies. RIP

If by "much to FSU's disadvantage" you mean "much to ESPN's/the committee's relief'", then yeah. PJ continues: "There is talk 2nd string QB Tate Rodemaker will be sufficiently healed to play. Though I doubt his availability, or lack therof, made any difference." Not as long as ESPN is pulling the strings. Sorry I botched the quote string as badly as the committee botched their job. -
Statistics, like words, can be used to advance lies or truths. Maybe players, managers, and front offices should stop talking, too.

In Lew Alcindor's freshman year, he led the freshman team to a huge win over the varsity (the rule above was in effect) in a preseason scrimmage. If the rule was not in effect, a) UCLA would have likely won 11 championships in a row, and b) the all black Texas Western team likely wouldn't have beaten lily white Kentucky in the championship game that year and that wonderful story would likely never have happened. So I guess some good could have come from what I think is a stupid rule.

How do you rank your life as a sports fan?

Chicago Cubs: world series in 2016, no WS appearances and several collapses in the other 53 years I've been a fan Miami Dolphins, no Super Bowl wins since 1973,_no appearances since 1984, no post season wins since 2001, and we're losing to the fing Raiders at home Indiana Hoosiers, championships in 1976, 1981, and 1987, but no Final Four or even Elite Eights since 2002.
