Me too RU. I think he has a great play action. Reminds me alot of Brett Farve... I was saying that to my dad during the Panther game then ten minutes after I said that they start to say how he Idolizes Brett Farve and does a great impression of him.
Oh yeah I forgot about Scuba

The guys in the office and I were all talking trash to each other about the game and it really sucks having to be the one to go in and admit defeat.

HAHA! being in northern Cali I know what you mean when it was a big 49er Cowboy rivalry..... Man that sunday was going to make or break my week at work LOL

The same thing happens here because I am a Dallas fan. When the Eagles used to beat the Cowboys really bad, I would hear it from everyone. I remember the Monday night football game a few years ago when TO lit the Cowboys up (the game where he had the pre-game skit with Nicolette Sheriden). That was bad at work the next day...

Quick opinion needed:
Who do you guys think will do better this Sunday:
-Chestor Taylor, the only player who is playing very well for the Vikings (against Arizona this week, at home)
-Deuce McCallister, a consistent running back who seems to now be on a team that focuses more on the passing game (playing in Atlanta this week)
I need to win this week in fantasy football. It is the last week of the regular season and if I win, I will get into the playoffs.

Lion I would deffinatly put Chester Taylor in especially playing against an Arizona defense.

That was what I was thinking too. His being on Minnesota just scares me. I thought he would have a monster game when they played the 49ers and the score turned out to be 9-3 49ers.
Oh, and I just saw your reply message about the lion fish. Just be careful mixing triggers and lions. They do not always mix well. I think lions, puffers, and wrasses would make for a better aggressive tank. I would look into getting a 125 for a decent sized aggressive tank. Oh, and I think the lobster would be fine with a lion or two. Just be careful doing a lobster with a puffer or trigger.
Some day, I am going to do a tank with just lionfish. I think I am gonna get a 125-150 and just do a whole bunch of lionfish in it. I think that would look spectacular. Plus, then, you could have all the inverts you wanted (with the exception of shrmp). You could have lobsters, starfish, snails, hermits, etc. and not have to worry about anything eating them.

Your right about the Viking thing that is scary but the thing wiuth the 49ers is they keep improving this year and are now at 5-5 while the cardinals are just horrible.
Ok so I like the moon wrasse and 6 line wrasse so that works out well. I can do a volitan and a wrasse with a couple lobsters, chocolate chip star, and some kind of nice sized crab... ill have to think about that.... acctually what would you think about a larger Coral Banded shrimp would that be a risk?

Man I have been making some good calls, First the Cowboys over Colts Upset then the score prediction above, and Chester had a heck of a game today. I should be working in vegas

Yeah, you have been making some good calls, Oceanists.
I won my fantasy game today, but I was relying on another team to lose. Well, they won by 4 points. The team they were playing had Dallas Clark, and I thought that Clark would get 6 points for sure. Well, sure enough, my luck has it that Clark leaves the game at halftime! Oh well... at least my brother's team made the playoffs in the league (12 team league, 4 playoff spots).

Just to let everyone know..I officially hate football. But then again I'm a Giants fan and right now I hate everything. :mad:

Yes, that was really pathetic that they blew that game... I could not believe that. Coughlin should be ashamed of his team.

He should be fired. I can't believe that they interviewed Lovie Smith and then turned around and hired Tom Coughlin. Plus Burress is a waste. I'm not ready to give up on Eli yet because I've seen what he can do. I just don't know what's wrong with him right now. Hopefully some of their injured players will be back for next week or its going to be a terrible game. Lion_crazz you do you like?

I am a Dallas fan, but I also really like the Giants. I do not like Plaxico Burress' playing ethic at all, but I like Eli, Tiki, Shockey, and a lot of guys on their defense. Hopefully, their defensive players can get back soon so they can start putting some pass rush on the teams they play. They have a tough schedule ahead of them.

I have a sneaking suspicion I may be able to find a few GM's to take Romo over Eli right about now not to mention coaches(ask Coughlin who he'd rather have next week). My question is: Is there still even 1 NFL team that would "settle" for Eli over Romo right now? I doubt it.
Still wanna stick to this statement Scuba?

well Michael Irvin has stuck his foot in his mouth once again... he said that the reason Romo is playing so well is because he must have some sort of African American ancestry to be able to preform the he is...
the guy needs to just go away...

Yes, I heard that terrible statement he said. It's only a matter of time before he's fired.
With that said, let's not start an Irvin argument, please! I think we all have certain feelings about Irvin that are unchangable. Let's just leave them at that. :happyfish

If he said that, I have a feeling that he was joking and it was taken out of context. I can see him joking with Deion or someone like that and saying it facetiously. Based on how Romo looks, I cant imagine that Irvin seriously said that. Not to sound racist or anything but Romo looks as white as white can get so i cant see Irvin seriously saying that.
2 minutes ago, you didht hear it Lion then you edited your post to say you did. Is there a link to this? I havent seen/heard it.
