what's really amazing is that Michael Westbrook didn't break a finger or rib catching the ball...
here in DC, if he looked at the ball funny, he'd break or sprain something...
Wrestling has been rhyming with ass. I miss shows and it makes me all shades of ambivalence. WWE is starting to suck again. The crops? Jeezum Spice! Someone stole my crops. What in the ham fat is going on. That's just poo-doo! That's just my 2.4856 Yen.
It is not the critic who counts, not the man who points out how the strong man stumbled, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena; whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs and comes short again and again; who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, and spends himself in a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows in the end the triumph of high achievement; and who, at worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat. --Theodore Roosevelt--
Word just came in from the league office that it was a Texans lose not a Bengals win... lol
Don't really know if going into detail here is the right place because we all know a wrestling messageboard is no place for wild speculation and innuendo
We'll see what the "home" team does in the full season; but, God, that felt good watching them finally being able to back up their words with a convincing "smack" in the face!
When a team and their fans get used to losing...you get into a rut that is hard to leave.
Sad to say..that was one of my favorite games the Bengals played in the last 20 years...oooff.
I finally saw a team that cared..played 4 quarters and never was afraid to keep on scoring. (hello?)
Originally posted by cranlsnI didn't think this thought I have warranted it's own thread and the Bengals winning made it a moot point anyhow.
Which do think would be harder to do? Win all 16 games, or lose all 16? I think the parity in the league makes it damn near impossible to do either.
Personally I think it'd be harder to lose all of them, you almost have to TRY to be that bad.
Since the league has gone to a 16 game schedule, far more teams have gone 1-15 than 15-1, thus making it appear more likely that a zero win season is more plausible than a zero loss season.
I want you to know, I agree with everything I've just said.
The Notre Dame games got better due to attrition. Chris "I hate ND, but I sent my kid there" Collinsworth being gone helped out a lot. I thought they did an ok job, it can't be any worse then Buck/Aikman or Phil Simms.
