You have no idea wtf we had to go through to get baseball in the Bay area. :(

The Marlins should have been ours. Fuck you, Huizenga. Fuck. You.

The Marlins could've been anybody's after that fire sale they had after their first World Series win.

No no, they were our expansion team. Huizenga used money from his Blockbuster video stores to bribe MLB to put the team in Miami to play in Joe Robbie even though St. Petersburg had the new stadium.


...We boycotted all the Bay area Blockbusters and they got closed. :D

Ok, I'm gonna say the winners this weekend will be:

AFC
Colts
Ravens

Which means it would be Pats/Ravens, and Colts/Steelers.

I see the Pats offence squeaking a win against the Ravens, and the Steelers picking off Manning a few times, so the AFC would be Pats/Steelers.  You know I'm picking Pats.

NFC
Saints
Eagles

Which would then be Saints/Falcons and Eagles/Bears.  Eagles beat Bears, and Falcons beat both.

Which gives us Pats/Falcons.  I still pick NE.


There.  My predictions are in.  They're probably wrong.  Tear it up, gents.

Saints/Steelers. That way I can wear everything black and gold/yellow I own.

I say it ends up Pats/Eagles with the Pats winning by 10 points or more.

You fuckers are crazy as hell. The Eagles are falling apart.

Have you been watching this season?

They're by far the most fun team to watch since, oh, ever.

And any time you have the best player in the NFL on your team you have a chance to win every game.

Srsly, I was trying to think of an appropriate analogy for Michael Vick's season, and I keep coming back to Tyson's first year as heavyweight champ. Dominating and unstoppable.

Go back and re-watch the last three games.

Including the Giants game where Vick brought them back from being down 31-10 in 8 minutes? :lulz:

The only way the Eagles don't win the NFC is if Andy Reid has to actually use his non-existent clock management skills in the last 2 minutes of the game.

Yeah I do, you tried to steal our team, remember? :lulz:

Anyway, you've got championships in 2 sports and a recent championship appearance in another.

We have the '05 Superbowl (lost due to horrible officiating/NFL tampering) and an NBA championship won in 1979 by a team that no longer exists.

Also, when your sports teams suck, you can go to the beach. What are we supposed to do?

Fluke punt return that was supposed to be kicked out of bounds. It had nothing to do with Vick.

That's how I see it going down too.  I hope the Seahawks win it all though.

The part where they scored 21 points in 8 minutes to tie the game at 31 before that punt was even kicked had everything to do with Vick. Without Vick they're 6-10 and don't even sniff the playoffs.
