    Well, the important thing is CR didn't win.

    I'm still hanging to a 2nd place overall, even if by a thread.
    It is better to conquer yourself than to win a thousand battles. Then, the victory is yours. It cannot be taken from you, not by angels or by demons, heaven or hell.

    Hey now. Just because I claim to know what I'm talking about doesn't necessarily mean that I actually do.


    @makaikhaan: Well done, man.

    better this week 9-5 not that bad. Hosa killed and Martok has another 10 win week. I gotta lot of catching up to do
    There, but for the grace of God, goes John Bradford

    My aim, then, was to whip the rebels, to humble their pride, to follow them to their inmost recesses, and make them fear and dread us. Fear is the beginning of wisdom.

    I am tired and sick of war. Its glory is all moonshine. It is only those who have neither fired a shot nor heard the shrieks and groans of the wounded who cry aloud for blood, for vengeance, for desolation.

    Well you're a mod so I'd expect the highest quality, truth, and now-how to come from your side of the IP address

    Why is it that the picks are always so easy to make and it seems like you have it in the bag until everything goes horribly wrong?

    That's why they play the games, Sasaki. That old saw, "Any given Sunday" trips up more wagers on football than seems possible. I wouldn't have taken the Rams with the points versus Dallas this past week, let alone straight up...

    Heehee. I always feel so smart the moment I've finished my picks. Then by Noon on sunday, I realize I'm dumber 'n a sack o' rocks.

    On average, one sunday per season I'll be shown to've been brilliant.
    Be well. Do good. Keep in touch.

    Very, very few people are cut out to be coach and GM at the same time at the professional level and for everyone else it's career suicide. Nolan wrote his own check and now it's about to be cashed.
