NFL season countdown (by jersey)
« on: June 19, 2008, 09:25:56 PM »
Yeah, I did steal this idea, but I stole it from a guy who sole it from another guy so it's cool.

79 days to the 2008 season. Make that, "79 Jacob Green days".  :-)

 :rotf:

I was going to say something.

My calculation has us at 78 days to kickoff (Thur. Sept. 4) but I've been known to be wrong two or three times a year.

On Edit:

From June 20th (today) to September 4th (Start of 2008 regular season) is 76 days!! I screwed up! Or, rather. the site I stole the idea from screwed up. Then again, they are in a different time zone and seem to be counting Sept. 4th as one of the days in the calculation.

Fark it anyway. I'm sorry. I also now owe two more picks. (the good news is football is closer than I thought, lol)

Hey!! No cheating!  :tongue: You wanna play that game, I got Seahawks picks counting all the way down to number 7,  (so far, LOL)

Wassamatter anyway? Pakers don't have a good number 75 in their great and glorious history? (or present, for that matter?)

Play right or stay home man. Next time you get a bitty slap. And only bitty-ches give out slaps so don't make me go there.

Leaping one hand grab -- while double teamed.   Are you kidding me right now? 

Patriots baby, all the way.   

that was one of THE most amazing catches I've ever seen & yet, ESPN /NFL network have filed into 'lost files' ...

I rarely see the replay of that catch...

that catch is what got the Pats out of their own endzone & started the offense up for the first time all game...

Lockear's a pretty solid RT. There is talk of him moving over to LT when Walter Jones retires.

It was First Class on a 767, and in the very front row. I had plenty of room in my area, but I did have to ask him to move his big f'n legs when I had to hit the head.  :-)

He's about 6'4" and 300+ Lbs. Played for NC State. He was coming back from something he had going on at his home in NC.
