Blak Egg WEEK 2

I'm sorry Lars if you felt like we ragged on you too much, but I expect you to understand my position. Lets say that the Bears suck and lets say that Vikings are an above average squad. Imagine that I pick against the Vikings in week 1 when they play the 2005 49ers and the reason I give is because they have a GM that I don't like. That just isn't a valid reason for me to batch your beloved Vikings. IF the reason given was because they are playing in San Fran and that is a tough place to play or because the Vikings haven't won a season opener in 36 years or because Alex Smith is a Vikings killer, then I would have accepted that because they are good reasons. All I'm looking for is for valid reasons to bet against the Bears or a funny reason, not a stupid reason. I think we understand one another.


Buffalo at Miami - Moons over my hemi. I pick the Dolphins to win this one.

Carolina at Minnesota - Caroline over the Vikings. Not because I hate the Vikings, but because Carolina is a better team.

Cleveland at Cincinnati - Cin over the Browns.

Detroit at Chicago - Bears over the Lions. I really don't think any of us are homers. I don't even know where the term homer came from. David Hasalhoff is starring me in the eye's as I write this....sorry gotta go

Houston at Indianapolis - Colts over Texans. I dang it! I can't think of anything funny while sitting in my cube.

New Orleans at Green Bay - Packers over Saints

N.Y. Giants at Philadelphia - Eagles of Giants. Have you guys seen that picture of the Yetti/Big Foot/Sassqwash carrying a can of spam?

Oakland at Baltimore - Baltimore over Oakland. Ray Lewis killed a man.

Tampa Bay at Atlanta - Atlanta over Tampa. I thought Tampa had a decent defense until I remembered that it's not 2001. Who is on buc's? Is stoesz there QB and He Hate me in the backfield?

Arizona at Seattle - Seattle and Tom Cruise over Zona

St. Louis at San Francisco - Rams over 9ers

Kansas City at Denver - Denver over KC

New England at N.Y. Jets - Pats over Jets

Tennessee at San Diego - Chargers over Tit's

Washington at Dallas - Cowboys over Skins

Pittsburgh at Jacksonville - Jacksonville over Steelers

Tim, well said. I understand you passion more now. Let's come up with a set definition of homer so that we can be correct when we can eachother and others homers. A homer is a fan with bliders on. 90% of Minnesota sports personalities are homers (file under: Sid Hartman). They beleive that the Wolves have a gem in Mike James, that the Metrodome is not that bad, and that the Gophers footballers might actually win a game in the state of Michigan this decade. None of these things are true. That's what a homer says. In Chicago terms, there is a guy on the Score who said that the 78 Dolphins should be nervous because the Bears may not give up a TD all year. Or, the sportscaster who spent 2 minutes of the nightly news talking about the last place Cubs and Pirates series w/o bearly mentioning the wild card contender Sox game against the Tigers. You see, by such standards, I'm not a homer. I haven't known you to be a homer either. Agreed?

You guys are all homers. I'm glad everybody has gone and made out with each other. WDYL is about ranting let's face it, if you get your feelings hurt in WDYL.... you are obviously taking WDYL way to seriously. So.... you don't think Mike James is a gem? I love 30 year old scoring point guards that are one-dimensional.
