Is this the second year in a row MrFrisby has won? I call shenanigans.

I think getting the right picks in is the key to it being a successful strategy.

That's the crux: you could care less, but expect us to care greatly about your concerns, and you insult us in the meantime!

I, for one, hope MrFrisby and j5v make history with their picks this week... and score negative points.

Sheldon would never bother with World Domination. After doing a cost/benefit analysis, it turns out it really isn't worth the bother.

For some reason, there is an inverse relationship between profanity and civility in discussions. This isn't always the case, but it trends to be true.

Updated standings since I screwed up the BC margin of error and missed j5v and rahilsuleman's picks. Thankfully DrJohn should be back for next week, returning us to our normally so well run CFL Pick 'em.

Week 7 Review:
Edmonton wins Round One of the battle of Alberta in a nail biter at home while Toronto loses a heartbreaker to BC at the Dome after showing signs of life. Montreal walks all over Winnipeg at home and the Roughriders hold off a surging Tiger-Cat team in Regina.

WEEK 8
Saskatchewan (4-3) heads in to Molson Stadium in Montreal to take on the 6-1 Allouettes. Last time these teams met Montreal trounced the Riders 43-13 in Week 3 in Regina. Can an inconsistent Rider team give Montreal a taste of their own medicine?
Winnipeg (2-5) rolls into Vancouver to play the 3-4 BC Lions. These two bottom of the barrel teams have had a rough start to the 2009 season, though Wally Buono's squad is beginning to move in the right direction. Can Winnipeg change their fortunes and move ahead of the Argo's in the East?
Good luck!

Pretty poorly. I haven't heard of a single CFL game this season that's been decided by half a point.
While that would prevent them from nailing the spread they could still get the team and the second point for being within the margin of error.
posted by apoch at 10:51 PM on August 05
I wonder how the point spread would have fared in our competition thus far.

owlhouse, I hate to break it to you, but the fact that it's a Detroit Lions sweater is the defect.

I think we're going to give deleted posts and comments their own pages, so you'll still be able to see what you're missing.
Is there anyway to have them all show up in some random order so nobody is sure which are comments and which are threads and everything is a jumbled mess and entirely out of context?
posted by apoch at 12:09 PM on January 20
William Clay Ford should resolve to sell the Lions to the highest bidder from LA who promises to move them and have them play in the Coliseum. The new owner should also feel free to change the colors to red and yellow.

BoKnows, when I was playing around with it last year, I discovered that 150% speed works a lot better than 200% speed for most songs. Some sound good at 175% and even fewer actually sounded good at 200%.

Some of the lyrics take a twisted lyric when imagining Alvin and the Chipmunks singing it. "I hope my boyfriend don't mind it." hahaha.

Don't be afraid to sign up people. I can't do it this time so nobody will be receiving Katy Perry's "I Kissed A Girl" at double speed. Well, at least not from me.
