Don't count on the Bucs helping the Lions out by winning at Lambeau.

Oh yeah? Why not?

Interesting line on Cowboys/Bills in Buffalo, Bills favored by 2 1/2.

I am torn about what to do… we are almost guaranteed a spot at this point, I hate Seattle with the heat of a thousand suns and I want the top seed and the eagles are in the way… ugh. No win scenario. You saw last night what we can accomplish with our vaunted O-line intact. Both Decker and Ragnow ar...

With regard to last night, Sean Payton was a total fool for not throwing his challenge flag on what appeared to be a (barely) TD on 3rd down with about 1:20 to play in the 3rd quarter. I don't know if he would've won the challenge, but at that point in the game, I don't know why on earth he wouldn'...

What, me worry? Great win!

Only if he didn't actually kick it.

I guess the operative action is the ball crossing the line of scrimmage, so a blocked FG recovered by the offense would also allow a rekick on fourth down.

NEVER been so happy to make a complete ass of myself!

If this is the result, you just go ahead and be an ass.

I suspect they didn't ice him because had he missed, they woulda got the ball back with just over 3 minutes and would have wanted those timeouts for going back the other way. Besides, they kicked it on third down. Wouldn't they have another shot at it? I know that used to be the case, but with all ...

Wow, great fourth down stop by the Bengals!

(Edit)
Bengals win!

Nice fourth quarter comeback by the Bengals, now tied at 17.

(Edit)
Damn, what a crazy fourth quarter! Tied at 24, going to OT.

Spartans are +3 1/2 vs. Baylor this afternoon.
While I never bet against my alma mater, I would advise others to bet your mortgage, vehicle, and first born on the Bears.

The basketball gods are angry with you! Sparty up by 19 in the first half.

(Edit)
Make that up by 26 at the half!

Vikings look like they're playing with a purpose this afternoon; they're driving the ball down the Bengals' throat.

(Edit)
Fortunately, two crucial interceptions by QB Mullens deep in Bengals territory is undoing things for the Vikes. They still have a 7-3 lead at the half.

That's quite the concert-going legacy there, Honeyman.

I remember reading Hendrix was once scheduled to open for The Monkees, but dropped out.

Remember last year when the Pistons apologists (largely the press corp and those within the Pistons organization) said the W-L record would've been significantly better if only Cunningham had been in the lineup all season? :lol I was kinda one of them apologists. :razz My God, this team can't hit t...

If you look at the records, the Lions have only defeated one [team] with a winning record.

That's a salient point I didn't consider, thanks, and that one winning team was in the very first game of the season and whose record was 0-0.
