They're going to make you wait until MNF for Saints/Hawks. The next weekend Hawks/SF in SF is an afternoon game at this point. I'm hanging in there. I try to make the best of it. I'm still working, so that's a plus. I do treatment Monday. Luckily, is early enough that I get home before the Seahawk traffic gets really thick. I appreciate you asking. Basically, I'm doing chemo to slow down the destruction in my joints until maybe a "cure" comes along. Its a 4 week cycle. Sick week 1, 2 weeks of sorta tolerable, then 1 week of last treatment wearing off. Better than nothing & I'm not in a wheelchair yet. I'm skipping Thanksgiving & doing pain meds & NFL today. Haha. You know what they say about the pain meds: they only give you the good stuff when you can't dance! Go Hawks! PS: I'm good with Brees scoring a bunch Monday as the long as the Hawks have 1 more point at the end of the game.
LOL - you're skipping Thanksgivings? You're actually skipping the meal for the meds. Understandable and a correct move. For a change, there are actually good match-ups tomorrow.
GB at Detroit my prediction 48 - 27 Lions
Dallas 20 Oakland 17 OT
Baltimore 17 Pitt 0 (i have the Ravens Defense in FFL)

I'd love to see the Raiders snipe the Cowboys but probably won't happen. That first game should be interesting. The enigma that is Matt Flynn. Wow, did we dodge a bullet on that one! I am with you on the night game. As a Hawk fan, the Steelers are not ahhhhh beloved. Cost me $2000 when we played them in Super Bowl. I had the Hawks @ 40 to 1. The Stones at halftime, I thought I couldn't lose. Ended up throwing things at the TV. Haha. As far as Thanksgiving goes, I'm not a big eater at this point & have professional advice telling me that staying away from my family is best thing for me. I got invited by friendgirl to a big thing but there weren't going to be many folks I knew there. Not up for the big party with a bunch of people I don't know. Was sweet of her to invite though. She gets it & got me to promise to be less antisocial in December. Doable. You have a good Thanksgiving & good luck on your fantasy stuff!

This is not advice LOL. I'm staying put. I'm going to wolf down Miller Lites and watch College BBall & NFL. Actually down to my last beer. I WILL NOT DRIVE. I'll simply walk 1/4 mile to the convienence store.
Go with your girl friend - and all the pain you have experienced - get out and talk to these folks they want to see you. You have a nice girl friend and it will make her day!!
Same to you Max's. Did you see the one earlier in the week where D Wade did a cartwheel behind LeBron whilst he was being interviewed? Evidently they are keeping it loose on South Beach.Quote

So back to the NFL before someone yells at us...
I predict that the Lions win big today... and so do the Cowboys.
Late game??... Someone better win this game, but it might be a tie.

A blowout Steeler's loss could really put a shine on the day!

Again - Detroit destroys GB. Stop Lacey and they fall apart,
Oakland 20-17 win or lose versus Cowboys.
Baltimore 17 Pitt 0 (There is no Rhyme or Reason to this prediction as I need FFL Defense points)

They are languishing against one of the worst teams in the league, who have a backup QB.

Oh, well Cowboys fans don't care about that. They'll act like they won the Super Bowl after beating a 1-8 team. Right now around Dallas everybody thinks they're going to win the Super Bowl because they're undefeated in their division. Nevermind that the NFC East right now is possibly the worst division in NFL history, and that Dallas hasn't beaten a single team with a winning record.

NFL opponents with winning records are kind of hard to find this year
The PIT V BAL was almost a tie.

It's kind of an interesting year. Who knew Atlanta and Houston would tank and that Carolina and KC and Arizona would be in the thick of it?

VERY weird year... I bet if we had done a contest at the start of the year where everyone guessed the record of THEIR favorite NFL at this point in the season everyone would be off by at least 3-4 games (maybe with the exception of a couple of teams who have done as well as expected).

crholmstrom- good luck with your treatment and I wanted to wish you the best of health this holiday season.
I will give the Hawks a yell for you on Monday night as I will be at the Saints v. Hawks game. Take care of yourself.
GO HAWKS!!!!!

Thanks MT! You have a good holiday season too. After attending the SF game this year, I would advise earplugs for MNF. I saw Metallica @ Century Link when it opened & the crowd @ that game was louder. Looks like its going to be a chilly one too, Monday although they have backed off on the snow forecast. I hope to make it to either the Rams or Cardinals game. Even with the troubles of the past week, I still think we are going to the Super Bowl. I think we will probably lose one of the last 5 but as long as its not NO its all good. You have fun. I'll be there via the home theater.
San Diego may be spent after last week's game. Though the Chargers are better this year, their D isn't on the same level with Hawks. Even though the Hawks are without Thurmond (or Browner but he was injured anyway), their replacements would probably start on most other teams. Just giving you some food for thought, Chris. Is your $ on the line. Wouldn't want to give you bad advice. Headin' down to Record Store Day to pick up new Flaming Lips & Nick Cave cds. Knocked myself out yesterday. Needed it. I know about the Stones ep but I can't go down the vinyl road again. Take care.Quote

I can play Dalton at San Diego or stick with Brees at Seattle. I need one these QBs to have a good game. Something tells me that the Seattle -N.O. game will be low scoring because Seattle has a huge home field advantage. They have a college atmosphere in that stadium.
I may have to roll the dice with an inconsistent Dalton. If I lose this week; No playoffs and season is done.

Good grief, is it my imagination or are there more college games, both FB and BB, being played today than any other day in history?
I seem to recall maybe a couple of college football games played the day after, and maybe a couple of BB games, but it looks like there are 18 college football games and 50 college basketball games being played today/tonight... and then the usual 400 college football games being played tomorrow.
