Barrie fire dept. is sister dept with our local VFD. They come here every St. Patrick's weekend. Based on my one weekend a year experience I must agree with your assessment.
As others have pointed out, a bit optimistic but I'd be really happy with your draft. Can't see the Bills passing on Barkley if he is still there at 8.
For one thing, his wife

I'm for anything that evens the playing field a little, with so many advantages going to the offense over the past 25 years. See how the running backs like having to change the way they initiate contact. Emmitt Smith hates the rule change

Actually finished out 11-5. To your point what I pointed out earlier in this thread, they were 16-0 with Brady a year earlier, 11-5 with Cassel. 5 fewer wins is a big drop-off.
I know you're kidding but seriously, I never understood why so many people thought 11-5 was a "good" season. The Patriots went 16-0 during the regular season one year earlier with Tom Terrific at the helm and 11-5 with Cassel. If they had gone 12-4 a season earlier with Brady and finished with 5 fewer wins with Cassel, all people would be talking about is what a difference the change in quarterbacks made.
In spite of the fact that I'm a Duke fan, I need to agree that that the Devils seem to get more than their fair share of debatable calls.
Not enough to make up for all the calls the Bills get screwed on though.
