SUNDAY FUNDAY RECAP - and a quick tangent on crazy women

You ever just get so lost in a conversation in what you are trying to say that somehow things get twisted up so hard that you start arguing with someone about things that you didn’t even say/intend to say, but you aren’t sure if you even said them or you may have said them?  Well that certainly happens to me a lot, and it just happened a little while ago.  I was having a nice conversation with a friend of mine who shall remain nameless.  We were just catching up and shooting the breeze when we began talking about the guys she was dating.  Somehow or another I asked her about dating four guys at the same time and let's just say that she was none to pleased that I thought she was dating four guys at once.  So she starts snapping on me and telling me how much of a "dick" I am for accusing her of being a slut more or less, which was so far from what I was even trying to do by simply showing interest in her love life.  Guys will ask friends if they are dating anyone to be nice, but 9 times out of 10 it's because the guy really wants to get a date himself.  Not saying that was the case here, I'm just saying.  Either way, I ended up apologizing to the 9's and I still don’t think I did or said anything wrong.  Next thing you know my apology isn’t specific enough!!! I was like "Yo, is you crazy?"  Fellas - never ask a woman or tell her that she is or may be CRAZY.  Women hate hearing that, so unless you are actively trying to start a fight, do not call women crazy.  And yes is the answer if you were wondering whether I had ever insisted that a female was crazy in order to start a fight, you know who you are #2.  Nevertheless, I think I just lost a friend for a few weeks until she recovers from my mind blowing insult which was purely based on miscommunication…..Shaking my damn head (SMDH)

On to bigger and better things…GO PATS!

If you stuck with me on my "Sunday 4 Sure 2 Score" then you should be happy.  The damn Chargers could not pull out the 9 point victory over the brutally awful Vikings and cost us the reverse.  If anyone watched that game, I start out by apologizing for your poor eyes, but man did the Vikes look like @$$!!!!!  McNabb had a stellar game, 39 yards.  Seriously, that's almost impossible.  He played four quarters of football and had 39 passing yards.  Had it not been for a costly Rivers turnover and the normally suspect SD special teams, the Vikes would not have put a point on the board.  We will be going against them for sure next week.  Eagles game just about got over ther 43.5 total posted, which went up to 44 by game time and cost me 300 bucks profit by not getting it in when I wrote this post.  DAMNIT.  Moments that make you say SHIT (MTMYSS)But we ended up losing the reverse for $-55. 

From there we looked at a solid teaser play with the Tenn Titans, who fought back from an early deficit to cover the tease (and straight bet depending on when you got the line which moved from Jax -3 to Tenn -2 by game time).  We coupled that with the cardinals in AZ who despite a surprising Scam Newton effort got the tease and straight bet cover by winning 28-21.  Dear fantasy sports players:  I do not care what anyone says about Scam Newton, he can play.  Tebow sucked last year and still was scoring mad points last year when he was out there.  Newton will put up fantasy points.  Do not expect 400 and 3 scores every week, but he will find a way to put up points.  The greatest uptick in value probably goes to the resurrected career of Mighty Midget WR Steve Smith.  He looked like he actually WANTED to play football.  Shit, lets be honest, if you had Kimmy Clausen and Patty Moore throwing you the ball, you would not be so motivated either.  Long story short, we came up $100 with the tease.

BUFFALO = better than what MOST thought.  KC = AWFUL.  The chefs suck.  I had a feeling Buffalo would take this one, but was a puss and decided to just take the points.  I had a great text convo with our boy Handy Cap at the 10:45 mark of the 4th quarter during this game. 

ME:  When was the last time a starting Bills QB was resting in the 4th quarter of a game because they were winning by so much?

Cap:  I was thinking the same thing - but where is Gus Johnson?

Me:  Football does suck without Gus screaming for no particular reason.

Cap:  :(

Seriously, it was nice to pick up another cool $150 on this game, which I call easy money, but where was Gus Johnson, the greatest sports broadcaster alive?  I hope he is in good health!  COME BACK TO US GUS!!!!

Lastly, we took the $200 tease with the lions and the pats.  LIONS = the real deal when "IF HEALTHY" (this is Matt Staffords official new name) stays healthy.  TAMPA = IN TROUBLE!  Some people thought Tampa could make a playoff run this year.  To all of those who agreed, I ask you this, "Can a team with an unproven RB who I was very down on this year, (Blount 5 carries, 15 yards 0 catches, Earnest Graham 6 carries 13 yards, 8 catches 58 yards) and an unproven 2nd year WR in Mike Williams and an injured Defense really make noise when they have to play in the NFC South against NO, Atl and the Scams, really be good again?  The short answer is no. The long answer….well, that’s actually also NO.  TAMPA WILL NOT WIN MORE THAN 6 GAMES THIS YEAR - PUT THAT on the board.  Anyway, Megatron looked like his autobot self and jahvid best got good combo yardage in the win.  Lions D got to the mobile Freeman for a few sacks and overall looked like the real deal stealing a big one on the road.  We now look for the pats to come in tonight and get the straight up win to cover our $200 Tease which would put us up $395 for the "Sunday 4 Sure 2 Score".  Good start if you ask me.  GO PATS!

In other news, I would be remiss if I did not mention a few awesome games this weekend.

Mich v. ND

If you missed the first 3 quarters, then good for you.  If you missed the 4th then I recommend finding it online somewhere.  Amazing offense and terrible defense allowed the Maize n Blue to pull out a miraculous victory as they were led on 3 TD drives in the last 3 minutes.

Dallas v. NY Jets

Only Tony Romo could blow the game AND 2 separate fantasy games for me with 2 costly turnovers including a fumble at the Jets 1 yard line AND the INT with 1:42 left to seal the deal for a 49 yard Nick Folk, former Cowboy current Jet, kick.  Sad but true story that IS the Dallas Cowboys.  Good, but never good enough.  And the Jets are really boring to watch.  They have so many weapons, I look for them to air it out more as the year progresses.  Special teams cost the Boys here with a blocked punt return for TD to give JETS the momentum and turn the game around.  Dallas D actually looked surprisingly awesome.

Back tonight with a quick preview of the Monday night lineup….Hint: I will be watching Bachelor Pad and Hell's Kitchen hoping that Elise continues her quest to the Hell's Kitchen finale and that somehow Casey and Vienna vanish into an Arizona desert.
