    Now that we're in the off season, someone should come up with a thread for the 'All Time - All Star Clueless Team', players, coaches, GMs, owners.  Wrecks Ryan would be right up there, based upon his own estimation of his skills, abilities, and humility. 🤨

  2. We had an office girl run an annual pool years ago at a previous employer's.  'Betty Mac' charged $10 a square, and by the time she finished off paying for all the possible combinations (corner touch, side touch, etc.) you had to be pretty unlucky to not get something.

    Another coworker at a different company finally got pissed off at chasing people for their entry fee, that he took $100 off the top for handling and carrying charges.  A few groused, but Tony was a good guy, and the rest of us just told the whiners to find a pool better suited to their needs.

    For Wilson’s sake, I love the idea of him becoming the backup for the Giants...

    Well, why not both?  NYC presents that opportunity that Wilson could act as third string backup for either the Giants or Jets.  Sort of a temp agency QB. 🤔

    🤨

    🙄

    At least in the old days, I knew my Hess toy truck money was backdoor funding the Jets.  Now it's my Imodium purchases. 😁

  4. Change the format to fan voting!

    'Vote early, vote often'.  Stake out the liquor stores where you get the ballots!

    Nobody stuffs a ballot box for MVP like the Bills fans!

  5. Martindale sentenced to fifty lashes for Harbaugh's indiscretions.  Sounds about right. 🤨

    And, he'll probably bring along Gettleman, to harangue underclassmen on how much they're eating.

  6. Do they still have parlay cards?  A few college games for the Saturday, and usually the full NFL Sunday schedule.  I forget the odds, somehow pick 4 correct out of 4 games paid 10:1 ?

    Just about every blue collar plant had an agent working them.  Plenty of high schools, too.

    MVP and the other awards are voted on after the regular season.  So many misunderstand as the playoffs has nothing to do with it.  Lamar deserves it for his season.

    Correct.  The only thing lacking is that all candidates should be required to dress in costume, and sing a song on 'The Masked Singer - NFL - MVP' special.

    🤔

    Allen wastes his time golfing, when he could be learning to kick. 

    Definitely a 'Goofus', when he could be a 'Gallant'. 🤨

    Josh Allen needs to study the career and success of Frank Gifford.  Except, I think he effed up by selecting Kathie Lee. 🤔

    You remember at that time, licenses were just ink jet printed on thick paper (not even as stout as business cards…LOL), and not laminated.

     

    Sssssoooo, clever, thirsty young rebels could very carefully use a pencil eraser to change the DOB on your license, and wallah, no waiting til age 18!

    Quite a few people born in 1956 found that a pin could alter the block lettering 6 into a 5, at least on NY state driver licenses. 😁

    My friend's wife wanted to throw a surprise birthday party for him, and asked me if we could use my place.  I said "sure."

     

    I never thought to ask how many guests were coming or who they were.  I figured it would be mainly friends we had in common.  

     

    Well, my friend is a writer, and unbeknownst to me, he worked on a bunch of films back in the day and has kept in touch with many of the people he worked with, all of whom were evidently invited to the party. So a stream of bizarre Hollywood folks showed up at my house, including "Red Foreman".

     

    Craziest was when the T1000 rolled up on a Harley.  We chatted about motorcycles for a while.  That was pretty surreal.

     

     

    Thanks, but somehow it doesn't hit the same....

    T-1000 aka John Doggett aka Robert Patrick?!  Dayum!
