They have, honey. It’s called indomitabless.
You can thus describle yourself as:
Indomitable.

hehehe… thanks sis, you know that’s right
escot4, looks like Westbrook is out for the game, thats probably going to sway all the predictions… especially my way since I have all the unders.
I guess tonight was useless. We’ll start next week on the cut & dry format.
I agree that tonight is pretty much useless. Green is out also. Oh well. Next week we should be able to find 6 players who will actually play.
I guess I’ll start things off with my predictions for this week:
QB Jake Plummer: 163 yds, 1 TD
RB Lamont Jordan: 128 yds, 1 TD
WR Plaxico Burress: 114 yds, 2 TD
J. Plummer 204 yards 1TD
L. Jordan 105 yards 1TD
P. Burress 82 yards 1TD
P. Manning 289 yards 3TD’s
L. Tomlinson 124 yards 1TD
M. Harrison 108 yards 1TD
You’re on the clock…

Just making sure, but for QBs it’s passing stats only, correct?

No, its total stats for all of them because the qb’s run in td’s too.
Do you even give the 3 guys I picked much thought on your predictions. Christ there is almost no difference in the answers. What kind of fun is this going to be? You choose 11 less yards on my Manning prediction, and 6 less on my Harrison prediction, and 17 yards different on LT.
That’s only 34 total yards different than my picks. i at least went 96 yards total difference and make it not a washout. Christ my #'s must be spot on… you sure ain’t making and deviations from my answers. Jeeeeezz!

Well, I tried to go out on a limb with my original 3 predictions so that you wouldn’t pick very close to me. I picked numbers that aren’t very close to the players’ averages, but because of their matchups.
For the players you picked, I predicted exactly how I think they will do. They just happened to be close to yours. With each yard being worth a point, small differences will accumulate a lot over time. There’s no need to be a drama queen about it.
By the way, you also picked 3 of the most consistent and predictable players in the league. I tried to pick players that are often hit or miss.

You’re gonna get crushed when this is all over with… I can tell already. You’re going by players averages and you won’t stray from my predictions because you know I’m right. Then you have the idiocy and try to tell me I don’t know what I’m doing, then end up mimicing all my picks.
By the way, you do know you got your ass handed to you with our little pre-season game there with Philly & Green Bay. You’re lucky that doesn’t count, or else you’d already be in the hole. This is the only time you will even in points with me. You will be losing come this sunday. I almost feel sorry for you, but you choose the ass whoopin’. Ass whoopin’ you’re gonna get.

I just picked players on games that I’m going to watch.
I don’t give a fuck about denver and the giants.

You’ve got to be kidding me. Did you even read my post? I said that I’m NOT picking numbers close to players’ averages, but rather going by the matchups.
My LT pick was not that close to yours, considering that you picked right about at his season average of yards from scrimmage (and you say I’m going by averages). The Peyton and Marvin picks were in the range that almost anybody would predict against Tennessee. My other 3 picks are nowhere near “average” games for those players.
I pretty much predicted breakout games for Jordan and Burress, and a poor game from Plummer.
And why would you “almost feel sorry for me?” The only reason I can think of is having to constantly read about how great you think you are. Why do you feel the need to hype yourself all the time? Does it make you feel better about yourself?
Let’s put this into perspective, we’re making football predictions. If you talk this much without having won anything against me, I can only imagine how much bragging you’ll be doing about any prediction you happen to be close on. You said yourself before Monday night’s game that because of Westbrook being out it would skew the predictions in your favor and make that night worthless. I guess you forgot about that.

blah blah blah blah blah blah BLAH! Jesus Fuckin Christ! Do your cryin’ on your own time. I said I wouldn’t count Mondays game because your predictions were so bad and I knew it. I called you out on your rediculous Favre yardage #'s before the game and told you why 301 was idiotic and he would get around 200, he ended up with 205.
I nailed Driver again! with 48 predicted and 50 actual. Other than that, you weren’t close or accurate on anything… so I decided to let them go because the rb’s were out and didn’t like the format anyway. Jesus christ, I gave you a break and you’re still crying.
Save the excuses, you can use them after I wipe the floor with you.
Therer are 2 types of people my man.
1- There are those that talk all kind of shit then rub your fuckin face in it.(ME!)
2- Then there are those that talk all kind of shit, and sit around with an estranged look on their face and wonder what the fuck went wrong. (YOU!)
Happy holidays!!!

Yeah, the point differential way does make the most sense. My predictions were horrible this week. They will get better though. I shouldn’t have predicted multi-TD games for Burress and LT, but oh well.

Well we both fucked up on the INDY game, who woulda thunk it? The Colts damn near getting shut out in the first half against Tennessee. Your LT prediction was, 2 td’s against PITT’s DEF… NO GOOD. Again since I’m playing you i went with 1 TD to cover the spread in case he scored 1, but I knew he wasn’t scoring. Your Buress prediction wasn’t too bad, he could have maybe got 2 td’s, but I knew his yardage wasn’t going to be that high.
Remember that some of these predictions are just to cover the other guy. Our first predictions should be accurate, but the last 3 are really to cover the other guy. So if you fuck up on your three, I will capitalize off of your mistakes. I’ll give you an example… this should help you for the future, I want competition. This is going to be a blowout if you keep this up. I want Plummer for 240 yards, but since you went about 160, I’m covering the spread by only predicting about 200. Same thing happened with Favre last week. Since we were in an over/under format… you predicted him with 300 yards, I wanted 200, so I covered the under with 290. He actually put up 205 and I was predicting no more than 200.
Remember NO EXCUSES. If you can’t prove that i don’t know what I’m doing by beating me and making better predictions, then you better find yourself some weaker competition. You’re in the doghouse now. But then again, even an ugly dog gets a bone once in awhile.
It’s only been one week. You will definitely have competition.
Go ahead and start off this weekend’s predictions whenever you’re ready.
New Predictions…
1- Big Ben - 218 yards, 2 TD’s
2- J. Walker - 94 yards, 1 TD
3- J. Lewis - 51 yards, 0 TD’s
4- M. Vick - 218 yards, 2 TD’s
5- C. Chambers - 52 yards, 0 TD’s
6- T. Jones - 87 yards, 1 TD
Current Score:
GHF - 113
ESC - 58
