    Jon, you bastard. Dont get comfortable in my spot. Nice job by the way.

    When two fit, it makes you think
    I got the cute one, my woman
    She says, "Lovin's all I bring"
    And it's her loving that's a wonderful thing.
    Lovin' yes we are, it's such a wonderful thing
    When two fit it makes you think
    See us both in the black
    She lays on me so relaxed.

    Wow, I am like the Cowboys. As soon as December and January roll around I start to lose. So much for the lead. Now I will be lucky to finish third.

    It would set a new record for most total points scored in an NFL game. The current record is 113 Points accomplished on November 27, 1966 when the final score was Washington 72 - New York Giants 41

    Dumb question, is there anywhere I can find out what color jersey the teams are scheduled to wear? Cause if Dallas is forced to wear The Blue Jerseys of Death(TM) , I won't change my pick, but I WILL bang my head against a wall.
