@realjohnboy,
Correct me if I'm wrong, but last year I remember the Packers' Rogers having to sit out a game after a concussion; like it was mandatory.

@realjohnboy,
I think Vick will play.

Perhaps not wise to do it.

All you need to know osso is that it is a bunch of blokes trying to impress women with their toughness, stamina and cunning.

@spendius,
Well, that's the way of sports, eh? Remember, I'm interested in piazzas, where bull baiting and bareback horseracing got a footing long ago.

@ossobuco,
I did see today, though, that the NFL is intending to impose rather severe penalties on teams who have their players take lessons from soccer players who fake injuries to stop the clock.

I'm toying with switching from SF to Cincy. Ah, well, there's a couple of days left to consider this.

Sofitel cleaning maids might be better.

Our footballers, when they do fake being injured, which is rare, do it to run the clock out, to get the player who tackled them in the ref's bad books and to give the other 21 players on the field a rest, which they often need.

Policemen are notorious for it in order to get 6 weeks paid sick leave. Six months for some.

@realjohnboy,
CoinToss/CoinToss got assistance in Week #2 from another player here. It did not turn out well. Would anyone like to take a turn at it this week?

realjohnboy wrote:

CoinToss/CoinToss is eager to participate and to aggravate Spendius - who claims that CT/CT will always end up at about 50-50. Something about statistics. My problem is that I am not as good at flipping coins as I used to be. Actually, they flip decently but I am not very good at catching them anymore. The coins disappear to be found only when I run over them with the vacuum cleaner.
So, as a new feature here at no additional cost, you - yes you - can be CoinToss/CoinToss for the week! How cool is that?
Rules (yes, there are rules. I love rules):
1) You must be the 1st to declare that you will be making CT/CT's picks.
2) You must describe in detail the coin you are using.
3) You must post CT/CT's picks with any narrative - which is expected - being gender neutral. That is tougher then it seems, I assure you.

@realjohnboy,
It's a waste of time John. CT will finish last on here. It's a sure thing. Do you know any bookies who will offer evens it doesn't.
