RockyRaccoon Posted September 11, 2011 Report Posted September 11, 2011 I'm hopeful about my Ravens . But then again I am every year. Lot of people like the Chargers to go to the Super Bowl, some say to win. I think the Eagles "dream team" is a little too good to be true. I guess we'll see.
bluesboy Posted September 11, 2011 Report Posted September 11, 2011 I agree Uncle Joe, if the offensive line can't protect Vick then the Eagles won't get far in the playoffs. Do the Chargers have the mental toughness to go all the way ? No !
TheLizard Posted September 11, 2011 Report Posted September 11, 2011 The Fighting Irish football team is the reason I drink. I blame all the dumb decisions I made last night on them.
bluesboy Posted September 11, 2011 Report Posted September 11, 2011 My condolences Tim. That's a hard way to lose.
MindCrime Posted September 12, 2011 Report Posted September 12, 2011 I'm thinking Falcons, Packers, NY Jets, & Patriots will go deep into the playoffs, like last year. I'm expecting the Texans to take their division from Indy
TheLizard Posted September 18, 2011 Report Posted September 18, 2011 First win for ND! Finally played like a good football team for a full game.
RockyRaccoon Posted September 18, 2011 Report Posted September 18, 2011 First win for ND! Finally played like a good football team for a full game. Outside of the turnovers
TheLizard Posted September 18, 2011 Report Posted September 18, 2011 Well yeah... and that's the reason we're not 3-0 right now. Frustrating.
RockyRaccoon Posted September 19, 2011 Report Posted September 19, 2011 Too bad you don't have Charlie Weis to blame it on anymore
phil Posted September 22, 2011 Report Posted September 22, 2011 Here's an interesting question. Which sports teams (pro or College) are living on their past achievements. I have two. The Dallas Cowboys and the LA Dodgers. What do you think?
TheLizard Posted September 22, 2011 Report Posted September 22, 2011 As much as it kills me to say it... Notre Dame.
Shawna Posted September 23, 2011 Report Posted September 23, 2011 I don't know if this is an appropriate answer, but I'll never pass up the opportunity to say CHARGERS for any reason.
MindCrime Posted September 23, 2011 Report Posted September 23, 2011 49ers Knicks Cubs (seriously, let the 100+ years thing go)
RonJonSurfer Posted September 23, 2011 Report Posted September 23, 2011 Speaking of the Cubs, we were recently cleaning out my in-laws house (they both died over the last two years) and I found some Cubs memorabilia in my father-in-laws file. He had a bunch of Army photos pasted on a piece of cardboard and along with it was a sheet of paper that said "To My Soldier Friend" and it was autographed by at least 16 of the 1944 Chicago Cubs. The most famous name was Eddie Stanky, but I looked them up and it appears to be many of the players from the 43-44 years. I assume there is some valus, and I'll get it checked out...pretty neat though. BTW, my father-in-law was a Brooklyn Dodgers fan back then, not a Cubs fan.
phil Posted September 23, 2011 Report Posted September 23, 2011 Nice find, Ron. I'd like to add Indiana and UCLA basketball to the list.
MindCrime Posted September 30, 2011 Report Posted September 30, 2011 Went to the DBacks - Dodgers season final, the other night. It was nowhere near of a good game as the one the night before. 1-1 going into overtime, Dodgers score 5 more runs, then the DBacks get a walk off grand slam to win it 7-6. Only the fourth time in MLB history that a walk off grand slam wins the game, first time was in 1925 by Babe Ruth.
miamisammy29 Posted September 30, 2011 Report Posted September 30, 2011 ^And the first time ever a team scored six runs to come back and win in extra innings. Nice job, D-Backs! I'll be rooting for them, but I don't think they have a snowball's chance in hell.
RockyRaccoon Posted September 30, 2011 Report Posted September 30, 2011 Well if this month has proven anything, baseball is nothing if not surprising. According to a stat I heard, the Red Sox had a 99.6% chance of being in the playoffs at the beginning of September.
MindCrime Posted September 30, 2011 Report Posted September 30, 2011 ^And the first time ever a team scored six runs to come back and win in extra innings. Nice job, D-Backs! I'll be rooting for them, but I don't think they have a snowball's chance in hell. I didn't know they were the first I think they could possibly get past Milwaukee, they are a better road team, but they won't do anything against Philly, if that's what it results into
phil Posted September 30, 2011 Report Posted September 30, 2011 My World Series pick. Yankees over the Cards 4-3.
miamisammy29 Posted September 30, 2011 Report Posted September 30, 2011 Rangers over the Phillies in six.
MindCrime Posted September 30, 2011 Report Posted September 30, 2011 I'm thinking Phillies over Rangers in 6 or 7
