GM's thread about nothing (28 Viewers)

So I'm one of 4 left in my local survivor pool. I've used NE, DET, PIT, TB, GB, NYJ, NO

There's likely some blowouts this week:

Bal v. AZ

Ten v. Indy

NYG v. Miami

SF v. Cleveland

Hou v. Jax

Thoughts?

I'd go with Houston. Tennessee and the Giants seem too shaky right now, and it feels like the safe pick, but the one the others might not take (so you can win this week).Grain of salt, obviously.
 
I'm going as Chip Kelly
Way to just put on random Oregon stuff from your closet, wildman.
He hasn't dressed up in 10 years. GOING ALL OUT!
:lmao: :lmao: :lmao: I'm buying a visor tomorrow, jerks.

also, bought some black shoes like coach yesterday. i think i have black slacks.

And I'm borrowing a headset from my neighbor.

I hate you all.
Dying your hair at least? Nike swoosh fake ankle tat?
 
My wife is awesome for a million reasons, but these two are worth noting:

1) We agreed with my ex-wife that she would be responsible for our oldest son's halloween costume and we'd tackle the younger son. Younger son is a gregarious lad who has a bevy of male and female friends at school, earning the nickname of 'Mayor of Ridgewood' amongst our family. Instead of going out a buying a costume, he said he wanted to be a 'chick magnet' for Halloween and my wife agreed to make this costume for him.

After trips to the Dollar Store and the soul draining Michaels, she had enough material for his costume. The gal worked all night long creating a shirt that had 'Chick Magnet' ironed onto it with glued on chicks and homemade magnets done out of felt. She probably spent 4-5 hours creating this shirt for him to wear. I would have given up after 5 minutes. But she stuck with it and created a pretty darn cool costume for the little Mayor. He's going to pull this off today and I'm going to the school in an hour to see him (and his brother) for their big parties.

2) When I asked her what she was going to be for Halloween (I'm going as Chip Kelly, which is lame, but I haven't dressed up for Halloween or been to a Halloween party for just grown ups in probably 10 years or more) she said she only had one idea. So I said "oh yeah, what's that". She smirked and said she considered wearing her graduation gown, putting a doiley (sp?) around the collar and going as Judge Judy. Not sure why, but that made my night. She'll need a fake gavel and a whig, but the thought of Coach Chip Kelly and Judge Judy going to what the invitation describes as a 'Skinsational' party :unsure: makes me laugh.

That is all. Back to talking about god inspired home runs, sandwiches and YSR losing things....
Winfield Scott, ftw.

We're both kind of sandy blonds....

I can't believe I spent three days in Phily and didn't have a cheesesteak. Pretty poor planning on my part. I did, however, have something called 'scrapple' for breakfast at this old diner and it was incredible. :thumbup:
I got a cheesesteak in Philly last time I was there. Not as good as what I can get in Cincinnati. :shrug:

Man, my uvula is swollen up beyond belief today. Woke me up early this morning when I damn near choked on it in my sleep. At one point I coughed and it landed on my tongue. Second time this week, too... I really hope I'm not getting allergic to beer or something. Really wish shuke was here, he's my go-to guy for advice on my weird medical ailments.
I'd go see an ENT doc if it continues to bother you. Mine would occasionally swell up after a night of heavy drinking and smoking, but never seemed to go back down to its previous size. I eventually had to get most of it cut out with a cautery loop. Now that's painful.But of course you know all this otherwise why would you be asking me about your uvula.
 
Thorn > nfw do I rely on Eli Manning for anything. I'd ick Baltimore, they will be in an unpleasant mood and Arizona is pure garbage. It kinda sucks that you are burning one of the best teams remaining left, but there are only 4 teams left, you need to survive.

GM> first, tell Cheryl I said hi. And if you get any pics of chick magnet, :pics:

Everyone else> :banned: Guinness would be very nice indeed.

I hope you all have a nice Friday night.

:thumbup: Cheryl stayed for about an hour today. She only ate about half her Torta, though. Course, she's very skinny, so maybe that's why. Well that and her mormon ways keep her off teh boozes. I think our CFO is smitten with the gal more than half his age.

Absolutely. By all means rely on Joe Flacco.

Without looking at who you would want to save for the next couple weeks, it has to be the Giants.

Appreciate the thoughts. I'm going to rule out San Fran; I don't think Cleveland is all that stinky. Also not taking Tennessee, Indy may be awful but Ten isn't anything great either, and Indy will at least be asked to show some pride.I like Baltimore but I don't like picking teams coming off a short week.That leaves Giants or Texans. First instinct was Texans but Miami is godawful. Might have to flip a coin.
 
Does anyone even know who the quarterback is for Miami at this point? Jake Long?
Isn't it Matt Moore? Kid was a stud back in HS down in Santa Clarita. Other than that I think he blows.
EXACTLY
Moore is dealing with bruised ribs, and after the Giants' pass rush gets through with him they may be more than bruised, but he has taken all the reps in practice this week and should be good to go for the Dolphins as they will look to extend their losing streak to seven games.
Also, if he can't go it's up to J.P. Losman. *snicker*
 
About to do a phone screen for an undergrad intern and, on his resume, the kids lists "The Society for Creative Anachonism" in his affiliations section. Is that really something you want to put on your resume?
