Only in your dreams.  You sound exactly like you did last year and every time I go and look at the standings from last year, I can't find your name in the playoffs, even on the consolation side.  That's gotta sting.   

How did I sound the same as last year?  It was kind of hard to brag last year when I was losing left and right.  McGahee killed me - if I recall I lost 7 of my first 9 games despite having Warner, Forte, and R. Moss.   

Of course, I've already hit my week #9 win total, so it's nothing but upside from here on out.

One Target in my neck of the woods put these on clearance back in July.  That's a long time back... now all the others in the area have done the same.

Nicklab, are you talking about wave 2 figures, or is there a wave 3 as well?

Despite everywhere being on clearance they are still sitting. That's pretty sad, I do not think you will see Trek toys in big box stores for a long time to come after the precedence this line set.

Yeah, I think the Targets around here are about to reduce the clearance to negative $1.50.  That's where they will pay you $1.50 per figure just to get them the heck out of the store.

Did you watch the game? 

I'll ask this again...did you watch the game Justin?

Yes, I did watch the game.

That's obviously one of Tunghori's auctions.  I've ordered from him before - some of his stuff is okay, but some of it shows up with ben marks, missing paint, etc.  I think his figs come from an overseas factory and a lot of them are factory errors or figs that just didn't make the QC cut.  I have had good luck contacting him post auction and letting him know that I want his best quality paint jobs (he typically has bucketloads of each figure he's selling).

The Vikings and Patriots both won yet it was still a bad day because my dream of back to back no win seasons for the Lions is over.

And I love that JediJman called you a homer Scott. Cause he isn't one for the Pack? 

Hey, I will be the first to admit that the Packers got outplayed by the Bungles last week.  Rodgers was off, the receivers couldn't catch anything, and the defense was awful outside of Woodsoon (C. Benson 140 yards?  really!?)  There's a difference between being a big fan of your team vs. living in a fantasy land where they are always perfect.

ANd I totally disagree that SF outplayed MN today.   That blocked FG was huge but MN pretty much dominated everything else.

Scott, could you possibly be more of a homer?     Given the circumstances, I think the Vikes were very lucky to walk away with a win.  The 49ers with S. Hill had the game won up until the final 2 seconds of the game despite losing Gore (their only real offensive weapon) on the very first play.  Hill was a match for future HOF'r Favre (Hill was actually more accurate) and they held the league's #1 RB to 85 rushing yards, no TDs.  The Vikes missed a FG (returned for a TD), got a lucky break with Harvin's kick return, and gave up the lead to the 49ers twice while playing at home. 

That's hardly what I would call "dominating" every aspect of the game.  Look up the Packers vs. St. Louis this week for a more accurate definition of dominating.   

I saw The Informant last night. What a ride. Very good movie.

Saw this on Friday and I'd give it a B.  Entertaining at times, but also some lengthy bores between laughs.  IT definitely picks up and gets more and more out of control near the end.
