…Holy crap, that’s what I’m talkin’ about! Coming home to a big box of booze after a long day of work will never get old… BIG THANKS to ASTRO, you ROCK!

Might as well sample some of these ‘goods’ while I’m at it…

-Cheers!

Out

dfm — Thu, 26 Jan 2012 14:17:49 +0000

Out for the weekend, going to the memorial service for my wife’s dad in St. Louis. I tell you cremation is the way to go, you can take your time and plan stuff out and WAY cheaper than funeral/burial/visitation and all that shit. Off the soap box now. Have fun with the new thread, see you guys next week.

Thinking Out Loud

dfm — Tue, 24 Jan 2012 16:26:05 +0000

I have been thinking about our random distribution of booze, also knows as the kfil regular season pool. Not a real fan of the randomness so I have an idea.

The Yahoo Bowl Pickem is a very fun thing we do each season end, and I was thinking about moving that into our regular season. We have choices.

Pick winners only.
Pick winners plus confidence points.
Pick winners against the spread.
Pick winners against the spread with confidence points.

I understand that it is tough for everyone to get picks in every week due to vacation, work or whatever, but if we did this, it might give us a rooting interest for or against a team, besides our usual hatred.

The prizes would have also be randomly chosen at the end of the year, as it is tough to make a “grand prize” when it will be for sure that most will miss a week or two here and there.

We could always use the full rack as a standard prize and dumb it down, or maybe we could keep a tally of who won what week and divvy up the booze from there. We could play for a sixer a week and keep a running tally and settle up at the end of the year but that could get expen$ive with shipping. Or we could play for maybe a three pack a week? Just shitting out thoughts at this point.

So, what do you guys think? Any other better ideas?

Like I said, sucka.

Championship Sunday

dfm — Sun, 22 Jan 2012 11:30:39 +0000

AFC – 2pm – Ravens at Pats
NFC – 5.30pm – VaGiants at 69ers

My predictions are Giants and Pats and ks8 gets nothing for his pool choices.

New Thread Plus TDU Results

dfm — Sat, 21 Jan 2012 12:38:08 +0000

From the Tour Down Under, the results so far, overall (ochre jersey):
Classic: Greipel, Lotto-Belisol
Stage 1: Greipel
Stage 2: Kohler, BMC
Stage 3: Greipel
Stage 4: Kohler
Stage 5: Gerrans, GreenEdge

Stage winners:
Classic: Greipel
Stage 1: Greipel
Stage 2: Clarke, UNI SA
Stage 3: Greipel
Stage 4: Friere, Katusha
Stage 5: Valverde, Movistar (doper!)

Overall going into the final stage:
1. Gerrans 18h.49m.24s
2. Valverde, Movistar (same time)
3. Machado, Radio Shack-Nissan (-8 secs.)
4. Rogers, Team Sky (-14)
5. Dennis, UNI SA (-14)
6. Boasson Hagen, Team Sky (-18)
7. Bakelants, Radio Shack-Nissan (-19)
8. Moreno, Movistar (-23)
9. Matthews, Rabobank (-29)
10. Vorganov, Katusha (-32)

What a log jam going into the final stage, a 20 lap circuit that you can see here. Hill profile here. Yep, that is FLAT. Going to be tough to make up time on the leaders today, but with all those tight turns, there could be crashes.

From what I can figure out this starts at 9.10pm central time tonight, which is 1.10pm on Sunday in Australia. Too late for me but I will watch the delay tomorrow on Steephill.

New Thread

Well, Mike and Mike were at least discussing that horrible, fixed to the max officiating from that Packer game last night. At least some people are talking about it rather than sweeping it under the rug. Anyway, new thread here for your enjoyment.
