  1. Houston has been playing very well lately, and Oakland, for some completely unknown reason, is actually looking like a decent team and is playing with some fire. That final game for JAX on the road against Oakland should be a good one.
  2. Good grief, is someone going to start a thread like this every time we beat somebody?
  3. The Jets don't have to "collapse", so to speak. They play New England next, so a loss there would not be a big surprise. If the Bills win next week at San Fran, then Week 17 should be a blast. The Jets would have huge pressure on them to get a win to make the playoffs, while the Bills would need to beat Pittsburgh (obviously). The Jets would be playing at St. Louis, which is not great news, but a desperate Rams team might surprise us.
  4. That's pretty much what I would expect. I'm okay, so everything must be okay. Or better yet, I'm okay so who cares about anyone else?
  5. I swear, with those last two brain-dead turnovers, if I didn't know any better I'd swear Favre is trying to lose this on purpose.
  6. There are no bigger homers than the Chicago radio announcers. That goes for football and basketball. Particularly with football, they have 2 color guys and they both are yelling the whole broadcast. At least, that's how it was a few years ago when I still lived there.
  7. Someone asked this exact same question yesterday on ESPN radio.
  8. I still crack a grin when I see Hogboy
  9. This is essentially what I implied by "the rest follows."
  10. Just like they keys to any game we play. Drew. He need to play it close to the vest, make the throws when he needs to, avoid patting the ball, and avoid the interceptions. Turnovers. We need to force a few and avoid giving them away. That's really it for me. The rest follows.
  11. True, although I wouldn't be too confident. Fontenot may be 38 and not in his physical prime but he still weighs 300 and knows the center position well. Phat Pat may be licking his chops, but personally I expect to see more from Sam Adams. That guy has been playing out of his mind lately and I think it will get better the closer we get to the playoffs. Methinks Jerry Gray responded to Sam's temper tantrum by allowing him to use his skills more to attack than to tie up blockers.
  12. Now there is someone a little too jacked up for this weekend.
  13. And I, for one, am incredibly elated by that.
  14. That just tells me that the guy knows a tasty piece of meat when he sees one.
  15. I still can't figure out what's so bad about this story.
  16. Colin brings up some decent points once in a while, but they're few and far between. The thing I really can't stand about him is that, when he wants to make a point, he just basically repeats the same phrase over and over again. Once he gets to the third iteration, I'm basically forced to switch to NPR.
  17. 'the quarterback'....yeah, what was his name again?
  18. I was the singles state champ in Utah for racquetball two years ago. B division, but what the hell. Now that I have a juicy bulging disc in my lumbar spine, racquetball is quickly turning into a fading memory...
  19. I'm not really interesting in recording "in" HD, but I can imagine wanting to record a show that is being broadcast in HD. I guess the question is, if a regular VCR can be hooked up to the system, would the recording be ugly? Or would it look the same as if the show was broadcast in SD?
  20. Hey, what about regular old VCRs? Can they fit into the system? (To record things for other people.) What happens if you try to tape a program displayed in HD?
  21. Interesting. If that's the case, and he still doesn't make the playoffs this year, how.....ironic.
  22. What does it use the phone line for, aside from PPV? It makes daily calls, but as I understand it you can't program the exact time it makes those calls.
