:o Holy crow! I beat the Defending Champs.

Neat. 8)

Not so fast. My TE is still playing tonight. All I need is a TD from him to win. Though I'm not crazy about my chances.  :(

Anybody else other than me just love it when Peyton Manning throws for 450 yards and 5 TDs and 0 INTs?

Having one of the Indy receivers on my team, I would normally love a game like that from Manning. But since Stockley finished with a mere 35 yds and 0 Tds, then it kind of blows.  >:(

Anyone need some Ewoks or Jawas?   Carbonite Block?  Maybe a set of 6 or 7 (with Chase Han)? 

I'll have extras!  :P

Jeff

If you have extras, I'd probably be interested in a set of 7, with the Chase Han. Let me know and we'll work something out.  :)

Chad Johnson just caught a 50 yd TD pass. And with that, the mighty Canuckleheads have fallen.  ;D

Sorry bud, but you knew it was coming.  :-*

I'll be getting this tomorrow also.

I was thinking about taking advantage of the TRU deal to pick up this, Battlefront and then a free game as well, but then I saw the TRU Sunday ad said they wouldn't be getting GTA in until Thursday and I just don't know if I can wait until then. So looks like it will be Target getting my business instead.


Wow, looks like the IGN review is up. 9.9   :o  The reviewer started off saying it was the single best PS2 title he has ever played. Nice.  8)

My team is off to a horrible start today. So far I've both WRs, one RB and my kicker already finished and it can't be a good sign when my kicker is the top scorer of my team with 4 pts.  :(

Keep denying the obvious Sox-homer.  Truth hurts don't it?

What truth? You, and the rest of those that believe in a made up curse, hardly makes it the truth.

Can't we let the curse discussion go now?

Aww, come on. We're having such a good time here.  ;)

LOL, what more do you need??  Exhibit A: Bucky Dent.  Exhibit B: Bill Buckner.  Need I go on?

Oh right, what was I thinking. A team giving up a homerun and an infielder letting a ball roll through his legs. Two things that never happen in a game of baseball, unless of course, a curse is involved.  ::) I guess every team has a curse then because I've sure seen a lot of homers given up and a lot of infielders let ground balls roll right between their legs and under their gloves.

Well obviously you guys can't have discussion on this because you chose to ignore the parallel between Ruth's sale to the Yanks and the Sox 86 years of futility.

OK, I'll give you that for the last 14-15 yrs that Ruth was in the league, it obviously had a huge impact on both teams. The Red Sox lost their star player and no longer were as competitive afterward. While the Yankees went on to win 4 WS in the Ruth era. No question that deal had major ramifications for both ball clubs, at that time. But I have no idea why anyone thinks that the sale of Ruth has anything to do with any Red Sox team in the past 70 yrs, once Ruth was retired. You're dealing with entirely different rosters, different managers, different owners, and different competition in the league, hell, even a different format in the playoffs. And those are the kinds of things that contribute to a team not winning for so long. Not a curse.

We were talking about The Curse, but you guys chose to steer down a different path to avoid admitting it exists.

I'll admit something exists when I see hard evidence that it does exists. And so far, I have not.

This has nothing to do w/ expansion franchises such as the Rangers and Astros.

True, it doesn't have anything to do with any of those particular franchises, but I'm just proving a point on how there are other teams that have gone thru decades of futility with out a so called "curse" being the reason. The Sox are not the only team to suffer thru that.

Quote
For anyone to compare the Red Sox to any other unfortunately franchise is just plain ignorant. 

OK, so is it fair to compare the Red Sox to a franchise like the Phillies, who have been in the league even longer than the Sox and have won a whole whopping 1 WS? That's about 125 yrs of baseball for that franchise and 1 world series to show for it. That means 124 yrs they have NOT won it. That sure makes the Red Sox 86 yrs of not winning one sure seem more feasable, if another team can go even longer without winning one (which by the way was 100 yrs until the Phillies got on the board).  And they don't have a curse. So why can they have 10 decades of coming up short be due to many other reasons besides some curse, but not have the same apply to the Sox? You call it a curse, I call it a coincidence that it started after selling Ruth.

Quote
But then they sold the best pitcher of his time

Babe Ruth, a better pitcher than Walter Johnson or Grover Alexander, who are also of the Babes time? I don't know about calling a pitcher who had 3, maybe 4 real good yrs as a pitcher better than 2 of the all time great pitchers in the history of the game.

I don't buy into the whole curse thing either. If that's the case, what kind of "curse" do the Texas Rangers have then? 40+ yrs in existence and they have yet to even play in a world series, let alone win one. Surely that's got to be a long enough period of time to qualify them as being cursed too, right? If not, then what's the official # of yrs to not win a WS before you're considered cursed? I'm sure Rangers fans would like to know so they can jump on the whole "our team is cursed, thats why we can't win" bandwagon.
