We didn't have one, so here we go.
Cowboys @ Washington in week 1 was a really good game

If by really good you mean horrible...I totally agree.
Washington had the worst passing game ever...every time Mcnabb threw the ball the end scene of 'armored' flashed before my eyes. Every time the cowboys managed to make some sort of play...they fucked it up with some sort of penalty (ie last play of the game). It was really a 'let's see who can suck the most dicks and still win' game. That rivalry is shit.
Now Houston at Indianapolis...great game. Always is.
Anyone play fantasy football by the way?

I gave up playing FF. Just never got excited for it.
Wish I'd seen the Texans game. I fucking loathe Indy. I know it was just the Raiders, but I'm always happy when the Titans win. Plus, Raiders can eat my dirty ass, too. The Redskins game was boring as hell. Sam Bradford did alright today against the Cardinals D. Showed a lot of poise and maturity. Too bad it was a loss, but he still looks effective in bringing some life back to that suckass team. And damn, the Cardinals offense looked so horrible. Ugly, ugly, ugly.

Haha...missed both those games.
Indi at htown in reliant was awesome man...Arian foster played ridiculously...240 yards and 3tds. Against Indi that's fantastic.
I already like football as a whole, its the most obvious show of teamwork in a sport, but with fantasy I definitely get a lot more wrapped up into the games. I've played now for three years, and I enjoy it. It also helps because I work in a sportsbar...and football season is the biggest moneymaking period of time for me. If you know the players...you can sometimes win the bets...and there's always plenty of takers.
I made tips enough for two shifts because of that LSU game Saturday...

Oh...quick fact...Arian Foster came in a close second to breaking OJ Simpsons record for most running yards on opening day. I'm pretty sure he requested to sit the last few plays out because of this.
Drink apple juice, Arian, cause OJ will kill you.

That was me, I'd've smeared OJ's record off the books. ;D

Holy God, this Jets/Ravens game sucks. The offenses are so crappy that the defenses don't even get a chance to look good.

San Diego/Kansas City was a really good game. San Diego should of won that game though, easy.

That's why they play the games. They should've won, but they went in believing the same thing and played lazy. Upsets are always good to see. Chiefs put together some really good plays on both sides of the ball, and had a fantastic return game to keep them on top.

I'm in three leagues, and unfortunately I only won one of the three games I played. Me and some buddies also started our own "eliminator challenge", everyone put 10 bucks in, winner takes all. Basically you pick a team to win each week...and you can't pick the same team twice. I got lucky the other day with Washington (wasn't expecting it to be that bad of a game), but I'm using strategy to try and keep the best teams available for late picking. We have 10 people in it this year, 2 are already eliminated, and $100 pays my league ante. Any suggestions for this weeks pick? And why?

Hey, hey now... you watch your mouth Although, I agree... it was a game of who f'ed up less. Yesterday we looked great, and then somehow blew a 27-7 lead! However, the icing the kicker shit is ridiculous. Shouldn't be allowed... and at least Shanahan went out with a bit more grace and didn't pull the same crap on our end. Stupid Texans I'm just slightly bitter over yesterday. I was hoarse already from the concert, and then the foul mouth I developed watching the game/yelling didn't help matters. That and the small stroke I had for the 4th quarter and OT. Bring on the Rams!

Haha...me and you may start a rivalry soon...
I definitely rejoiced in houstons win yesterday...and honestly don't feel bad at all for 'icing' the kicker. I understand...I'd be pissed if it were my team as well..but it's strategy and it gets in the mind of the kicker, perfectly legal, and a chance to win.
I think houston is a great up and coming team...and after the comeback they had...they deserved to win. I would have 'iced'...no doubt.
Washington isn't a bad team by far though...they showed they could play a great game...but they need to work on changing the momentum of a game.
Foul-mouthed is right...I had three quarters to your one.

It was a great game for Houston. They've really, finally become a team in the NFL. When the Panthers and Jags came in, they both made some good early impressions. Even though they're a divisional rival, I had high hopes for the Texans since they were in the city my Oilers came from.
This is a pretty good game right now.

Foul-mouthed is right...I had three quarters to your one. Bring it on!!! I fend off Cowboy fans allllll the time, I think I can handle little old you Houston is a great team- I will definitely admit that. I was slightly worried myself going into yesterday's game. However, we played well- sacks galore!!- and we just let it all go in the second half. The number of missed interceptions on our part, and the blocked FG... uggggh!! However- I still feel- whether it's my team or someone else's in a game we're not even involved in... the icing the kicker crap has got to stop. If it's before the play has even begun, period, to make the kicker/team think for a bit... that's one thing; but, to do it when the snap has gone off before the kicker makes contact with the ball is just absolute crap. C-R-A-P!! I would even say the same thing if it was done to the Homo/Cowgirls (and THAT should tell you something, cause I BLEEEEEEED burgandy and gold!). Just saying. Still very, very bitter though!! and again I say, Bring on the Rams!! We're gonna kick some sheep ass next week! All in all you have to admit we're looking a LOT better than last year. Still not convinced on Mr McNabb (never liked the Eagles, and still don't), but he has definitely brought together the offense better than years past. Defense is still kicking ass and taking names... unless it's OT grrrrrrrrr.... bitter, bitter, bitter, I know!!

#1...let's get this straight...Saints fan. Not a cowboys fan...and I don't think I came off as one. Fuck dallas...Jerry jones...and their multibillion dollar stadium. #2....Kubiak gets the 'ice' strategy from his old head coach...who is....shanahan! #3...rams...yeah I hope you win. If not...fair game for insults.

Bring it on! #2 Touche... but still, I think it's a crap strategy... no matter what team is/are playing. Period. #3 Yeah, fair enough. We were open fodder last year when the Lions beat us... there was nothing I could say to justify, defend, etc our team. We just plain sucked that day...and there wasn't anything else to be said. So if we lose on Sunday, you can have at it. I'll be crying and rocking back in forth in my darkened corner.

I decided first that the pain of defeat was enough for you to lather in, simply because we did as well, but I just couldn't do it.
I'm sorry your foreskins lost n

Yeah, yeah, yeah... my dismay and utter disgust with them this week is enough for me... I don't need much help :-p
Somehow, games we should run away with... we just let them win (whomever "them" may be on a given week). *sigh* Maybe the pain will go away by next Sunday... maybe. Going to go further drown my sorrows now...

Is this the game where the fat guys dress up like bobble-heads with skintight spandex pants, and run around trying to get an oval shaped air inflated projectile they insist on calling a ball? The one where it starts off with a team member bending over and "presenting" his "ball" to another team member who stands directly behind him with his hands outstretched hungrily awaiting said "ball", and then they spend the rest of the game running around trying not to get hugged???
