    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.

    Ain't that da truth. "Dumb Luck Syndrome" is a specialty of mine in sports prognostication, and I probably used my one Sunday of brilliance last week. Isn't it nice to know one is consistent at some things?

    HEART ATTACK HEART ATTACK AGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH STOP THEM STOP THEM ITS 4TH DOWN

    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.
