Alright, guys. I know interest in the league has waned in the past few weeks. Except for those in the money hunt still. However, we need to finish on a high note. With that said...
Week 17 Duties
TOW - Austin
Predictions - Wall
12.29.2010

Week 15 - I.I.W.A.B.M.
Well. I am changing the name of this weekly post ... again. It will now be called PUT YOUR MONEY WHERE YOUR MOUTH IS ... PUMWYMI. Why? Because I am now a betting man. Last week was my first bet. A 3 game parlay....and Jeff Fisher boofed it up on Thursday. However, my Raiders pick was off, too.
Anyway... lets get to this week.
(Lines provided by bodog.com via the Yahoo Sports Odds page)
San Francisco 49ers @ San Diego Chargers (-9 points)
Giving 9 points is a ton for a team that has been super inconsistent. I take the 49ers and the 9 points. The 49ers looked good last week against the Seahawks and may be rebounding to save Singletary's job.
New Orleans Saints @ Baltimore Ravens (-1 point)
I take the Saints on the road. A 10-3 team + 1 point?? I will take it. The Ravens looked extremely beatable in the second half of the Texans game...and it is a short week for them.
Houston Texans @ Tennessee Titans (-1.5 points)
Since the Texans season is over....that means they will start winning. I will take the Texans plus the points. The Titans are horrendous and haven't won a game since the middle of October.
Cleveland Browns @ Cincinnati Bengals (-1 point)
The 2-11 Bengals are favored?!? They haven't won since September. I will take Peyton Hillis and the Browns plus a point against the Bengels. Their secret weapon is back this week..... Colt McCoy.
Last Week: 1 of 3 (33%)
YTD: 4 of 7 (75%)

Week 15 duties
The TOW is back! Week 14 was a silent week for the TOW. Jace won the honors...but was unable to give us anything. That could only mean one of two things. 1. Jace was out hunting the exotic 3 antlered chupacabre so that he can stand over its carcass and take a picture of it ... OR ... 2. He mouthed off to his lady and has been bound and ball gagged, locked in his own closet. I suspect the latter due to the lack of dead game picture updates on Facebook. Will someone go over to his house and help him come out of the closet? (See what I did there????)
With that said., just like Metz two weeks ago, I finally won TOW duties this season. It has been a long drought for me. My last TOW was in the final week of last season. My earnings from my last two TOW victories have netted my NOTHING!!!!!!!!!! Thanks for being so active on the waiver wires.
This week's TOW is Christmas themed. I know... it is a week early, but due to people traveling we may not get as good of response next week.
Week 15 TOW: What is your opponent thankful for this Holiday season?
Predictions go to Boobs.
I will post this on the yahoo forums, as well. But you should really get all your info here.

Conspiracy Theory - Volume 1
I don't know if this will be a continuous entry or not, but I added the "Volume" to the title just in case. Basically, I will just rant about what I think is really going on in the NFL.
1. Jeff Fisher is the next Pete Rose.
He was definitely betting on his team last night against the Indianapolis Colts. As a back story to this entry, the Colts were favored by 3 to 5 points depending on where you bet. How about we just say that the point spread was 4.5 points? Is that good enough? I think so.
Fisher totally threw the game to cover the spread. With 30 seconds left, the Titans were down 9 points and had the ball inside the 30 yard line. Only one time-out remaining. The idiots in the booth (including the franchise kamikaze - Matt Millen) all stated that they must score twice to win this game. Thanks for pointing out the obvious! No wait...it appears that the Titans will line up for the 4 point conversion! So, the Titans should of kicked the field goal with 30 seconds left. Down by 6, they would of also needed a properly executed onside kick and a hail mary TD. Yes, the odds were definitely stacked against them no matter what they did. However, what DID happen gave them NO chance to win. Instead of trying to get a touchdown on the next play....they threw a 5 yard pass. Hurried up...threw another 5 yard pass. Repeat. Repeat. Repeat. Kerry Collins throws a 3 yard TD. You are now within 2 points of the Colts! Good job. Oh, what? There is no time remaining??? Wait, you mean the game is over??? Ah, shucks. I guess it is time to just cash out....errr... I mean hit the showers.
Good job, Fisher. You never tried to win the game. Only cover the effing spread.
This is just the beginning. There will be more conspiracies to uncover. Keep a lookout!

Week 14: I.I.W.A.B.M.
Here we go again. I.I.W.A.B.M. stands for "If I Was A Betting Man" if you are confused.
(Lines provided by bodog.com via Yahoo sports odds page)
Indianapolis Colts @ Tennessee Titans (+3.5 points)
Only 3.5 points?!?!?! Wow, how far have the mighty Colts fallen? The Titans suck. CJ2K looks like he has given up. Must be hanging out with Randy too much. IIWAMB - Colts! Even though I would love for the Titans to beat the Colts....I just don't see it happening. Peyton will shut up all his critics against a horrendous Titans team.
Oakland Raiders @ Jacksonville Jaguars (-4.5pts)
I just don't respect the Jags. A Texans-like secondary. A Panthers-like quarterback. That little midget can only carry this team so far. Plus, this is when the Jags start choking. When they control their playoff destiny. Raiders are on an upswing with the beatdown they put on the Chargers. IIWABM - put your money on the Raiders and take the points.
Atlanta Falcons @ Carolina Panthers (+7.5 pts)
IIWABM - put your money on the Falcons. Carolina has scored over 20 points only twice. That happened against the stellar defenses of the 49ers and Browns. The Falcons offense is just too good.
That's all for this week.

Week 14 Duties
T.O.W - Jace breaks his 3 game losing streak with a strong performance and major @ss beating against Kelly. 1,336 points.
Predictions - Sal is up. He put up a measly 438 points against me. Thanks.

Welcome!
I just wanted to take a quick second to introduce our newest 2nd generation NCL'r. Andrew Tiblier. He was born November 23, 2010 at 7:20am. He weighs 6 lbs 7 ounces and is 20 inches long. Mom and baby are doing well.
This is great news all around. First....Tibs is a father. Second....it's a boy. Third...I've heard that Andrew has a bigger penis than Jace already. Fourth....this pregnancy has adversely affected Tibs' usual dominance of the NCL (well, this is good news for everyone else in the league. Sorry, Tibs. It's all about give and take). In the five previous seasons, Tibs has finished 2nd place twice and 3rd place twice. His worst season was an 8-9 season where he finished 6th. This year will more than likely be his worst yet. See good news all around!!! And maybe it was just the pregnancy that was affecting his fantasy powers. Now that Andrew is here, Tibs may come storming back. Just have to wait and see.
Just remember, if you need any parenting advice....check my blog. And Congrats. Your life will never be the same. Neither will your sleeping patterns.

If I Was A Betting Man...
UPDATED: 12/6/10 (at the bottom)
Usually during the week, Wall and I talk about the different games and the lines associated with them. And then, I pick a few games I would bet on "if I was a betting man." Well, I guess Wall has something better to do during the work day than talk about NFL lines. Jack@ss. So I will put them here.
(Lines provided by bodog.com via Yahoo sports odds page)
St. Louis Rams @ Arizona Cardinals (+3.5)
If I was a betting man....I would bet on the Rams. Can you name the Cards' starting QB or RB? I can't. Yes, the Rams lost to the Cards in week 1 by 4, but the Cards haven't done anything lately. Sam Bradford is running away with Rookie of the Year honors...and is definitely the Rams MVP. Rams win by 10.
Dallas Cowboys @ Indianapolis Colts (-5.5)
Call me crazy, but .... If I was a betting man...I would put money on the Cowboys. The Colts are really struggling and I could see the 'girls putting alot of pressure on Peyton.
Carolina Panthers @ Seattle Seahawks (-6 pts)
If I were a betting man....I would put my money on the Seahawks. First...it's Carolina. Second...they are away. Third...it's Carolina!
Side note:
If I was a betting man....yesterday I would of taken the 9 points and put money on the Texans. I don't usually bet for or against the Texans, but 9 points seemed extremely high. Philly and Mike Vick are over-rated. Well...I would of lost my money since Philly won by 10. One of the first times this year I blame the Texans offense for this loss.
If anybody wants to post anything on this site.....please shoot me an email. I will give you access.
Update: Man, totally should of placed some bets this week. 3 of 4 is pretty good. Dallas won outright. St. Louis wins by 13. And Seattle wins by 17. I may have to quit my day job.

Week 13 Duties
With a high score of 1,227, Metz wins the TOW.
Predictions are for Wall. Too bad we don't do predictions anymore. I would also like to note that in Week 11 Wall put up 1,322 points on me. Wall then turns around and craps out a Mendo-sized turd of 401 points! And yes, Wall's turd had salt and pepper hair....and the prettiest eyebrows you have ever seen.
