Yeah but Dallas is 12-2. Hahahaha. Thanks to Prescott and Bryant and hope they don't put Romo in if they get to Super Bowl

That would be a purely stupid move to put Romo back in, even if he were able to play.

And an even bigger miracle was the San Francisco 49ers got their second win of the season this week too, so despite their win, Cleveland still retains the number one draft pick in April.  :yes:

Just not feeling it this season at all. Not in the slightest.  :no:

I do believe I will be skipping the super bowl this year as well.  .  .

Aw, why not PH?  I'm finally able to watch as much football as I like.

He is able to play but I don't think he will unless it is the next game which doesn't count for anything for Dallas.

Don't really know. Typically I am in front of the set all day on Sunday at a minimum, but for whatever reason I just don't even have the slightest interest in it this year. I don't know if my summer long reconciliation with the sport of my youth, baseball, drove me from it or what. I just cannot watch it this year. At all.

The last 3 weeks we have not even watched the Colts play, so my wife is also under the spell of whatever it is. . .

I've been conflicted with the NFL for quite some time now, as I deeply disagree with its tactics of forcing the citizens of the cities in which its franchises play to fund the construction of palatial stadiums via taxation; and then raising ticket prices beyond the reach of the average blue collar workers that so loyally support them. None-the-less, I still watched every season until this one. . .

With the cowgirls doing so well this season I suppose I am not missing much though. And if Jerry's Kids get into the big show this year, whatever small likelihood there is of me watching the Super Bowl will be immediately eliminated.  :yes:

49ers fired their GM. . . (Happy New Year). . . I wonder how long it will take for Pagano and / or Grigsons sacking to be announced? (Probably a few days in order to allow Irsay to get over his hangover. . .  :rolleyes:

Just got off the phone with a "highly connected" friend within the NFL, and he concurs with my prediction. Says the word is big time changes are coming to the Colts organization. . .  :yes:

They'll have to bring back Peyton Manning to get my attention. . .  :wink: :big grin:

Even Kravitz is expecting Pagano or Grigson to get the ax on black Monday. (Tomorrow).

The Monday after the last Sunday is when the blood tends to flow freely around the NFL.  ;D

Wonder what has-been coach they will be digging up to replace some of these guys?  :confused:

Makes you wonder if they are going to do anything now...........why should there be a waiting period?  Irsay should know IF he is going to fire by now.  I don't see the point of a waiting period.  Be man enough to SH!T or get off the pot!

Either of you think there's a possibility for Peyton Manning in the management structure there? 

There's probably less stress for him in just doing the commentator gig.  :yes:
