As I said the last time around, "Just the three games with all teams playing? For shame". To The Games! Steelers/Seahawks: Seattle's run D, a unit that could always be counted on because Carroll still thinks it's the 80's, has experienced some issues recently and that bodes well for Warren and Harris and

Old men don't stay up late to slurp champagne this evening. What they do is get up early and write game intros. And complain. They like to complain. Why wasn't the excellent Fins/Ravens game flexed to Sunday night? Vikes/Packers instead of a balls-out contest? And another thing-no teams are on

It's been a delightful day in the Scotchverse-youngest went out to kill more partridges, wife had a good mid-day snooze and I saw Sillycuse get to double digit wins in December for the first time in quite a while. More alarming is the fact that there are two open areas

Let's get back on that damn horse, shall we? Minutae: -The Clipboardening: Joining the likes of Cutlets, Wilson, Howell and Ridder on the bench will be Nick "Rockabye" Mullens. Too many turnovers is his problem. -Stroud is still having light sensitivity issues, can't count his fingers, is unable to tell left from right

I finally know what a '50's housewife feels like having spent most of the day in the kitchen and scooting snackers the hell away. Damn, that's a long day on my feet. I could use a cool, refreshing and slimming Marlboro right now! To The Game! Ravens/Niners: -Career Bestie: That's Lamar's total completions and

That's what the football gods sayeth in what passes for my brain. To The Game! Giants/Eagles: -Dallas dropped the ball yesterday but it doesn't seem to mean that much given that Philly just needs to get a win under their belt against a team that they dominate on the regular.  Also, Dallas plays

Lot's of cooking today but I might be able to escape here and look in. Can I get everyone fed and out the door before the Giants game. Nope. Oh well. Fallout: -The Fins beat a +.500 team for the first time! Miami and Dallas will be in competition for the most

Right now I'm probably trying to stifle a snide reply to a certain inanity that came out of the mouth of a certain in-law. So I've got that going for me. I'll keep this short because there's much to do today. Enjoy the tilt and drop by and say hello. To

A scant three games on offer. (we should be accustomed to this by now) One is a keeper, another is a stinker and the third is watchable if you're a hardcore NFC South groupie. To The Games! Jags/Bucs: Against all reasonable expectations Tampa has cobbled together a three game win streak. At the

These ramblings will be as skinny as the games on offer today because we're opening presents, cooking stuff and then heading out to the SIL's. Why are we opening presents? Well, Fractured Skull Boy has a girlfriend and despite the fact they're 'not serious' (she's practically moved in) he wants

It just doesn't seem right that Buffalo is in a position whereby they need to win out (and need a bit of help) to get into the post-season but here we are. To The Game! Bills/Chargers: -That Bolts D took a shit-kicking last week to the Raiders of all teams but if that's

Hey, you're all busy doing that Xmas-y stuff and you need a break just so that you don't wring some family member's neck. Sit down, cool off and watch some football. That's the ticket! To The Game! Bengals/Steelers: -Pickett is still missing, Rudolf The Struggling QB is starting, their top three safeties are
