By the way...Saturday, October 14th is Sublime Mike's birthday. Um, Mike, could you post your picks before the parties start.

Speaking of youthful exhuberance, I mentioned before that Andy, one of my employees, is the singer in a Goth band called Bella Morte. Three of the other band members work on my estate as groundskeepers. I am the largest equal-opportunity-employer of Goths in Cville.
Anyway they left on tour. How is this: 23 shows in 28 nights. From NYC to Seattle (and into Canada twice) and coming home via the southern route through AZ, TX, NO, ATL etc. They are travelling with another band and their record company hired a bus and a professional driver, which makes me feel better.
The Chicago date, JPB, is 10/14. All ages permitted.

I forget if I've chosen already so, er, if I have, um, sorry. Embarrassed

This week's selection criterion is: select the team with the longer city/state name. For ties, add the team name. Spaces and periods count.

Buffalo (2-3) @ Detroit (0-5) tie, so I waved the magical randomness wand and have come up with Buffalo
Tennessee (0-5) @ Washington (2-3) Washington
Seattle (3-1) @ St Louis (4-1) St Louis
Philadelphia (4-1) @ New Orleans (4-1) Philadelphia
NY Giants (2-2) @ Atlanta (3-1) NY Giants
Houston (1-3) @ Dallas (2-2) Houston
Cincinnatti (3-1) @ Tampa Bay (0-4) Cincinnatti
Carolina (3-2) @ Baltimore (4-1) Baltimore
San Diego (3-1) @ San Francisco (2-3)
Miami (1-4) @ NYJets (2-3)
Kansas City (2-2) @ Pittsburgh (1-3)
Oakland (0-4) @ Denver (3-1) Oakland
Chicago (5-0) @ Arizona (1-4) Arizona
37

Thanks, RJB.

Here Comes Week #6! Only 13 games this round; a bye week for Cleveland, Green Bay, Indianapolis, Minnesota, New England and Jacksonville.

Sunday, 10/15 early games:

Sunday night:
Oakland (0-4) @ Denver (3-1)

Monday night:
Chicago (5-0) @ Arizona (1-4)


Next week, by the way, I am going to experiment with not posting the schedule until Tuesday, as Kicky suggested. If that puts a hardship on anyone, let me know.[/quote]


All of the normal players (I know, I used that adjective before but the alternative is "regular" which would prompt someone to say something about being "irregular") except for Cowdoc and Kickycan. I don't know what line of work Kicky is in. I do know and appreciate that Cowdoc is involved in activites that keep him plenty occupied..

New players, of course, are more than welcome to join.

I have to work Sunday afternoon at the shop due to some staffing shortages, so I will miss much of the early games.

I just read johnboy's post, and I did indeed spend the day in a corral, but only with 350 head of cows. I must admit that the adjectives "normal" and "regular" have rarely been used in reference to me. Oh, well, only 400 head up the East Fork tomorrow, and then I get ready to head for D.C. again!

Some really tough ones again this week.....

Detroit
Washington
Seattle
Philadelphia
Atlanta
Dallas
Cincinnati
Baltimore
San Diego
New York Jets
Pittsburgh
Denver
Chicago 35

I may have asked you this before, Cowdoc. Which do you hate to face most? Cattle or Government Bureaucrats?
Charlottesville is two hours south of DC. If you have a free afternoon, come on down. I can show you Tom Jefferson's place and other stuff.

Johnny, I'm stopping in to see you this winter, probably around mid February.

Make sure your store has some sort of discount going on during that time.

johnboy, I always prefer cattle, even when they predict a snowstorm - like tomorrow. Next week is another meeting of the National Roadless Area Advisory Committee. I'm sure it will be just all sorts of fun. The schedule will be totally filled, as usual, but I intend to be in Richmond for a meeting next July. Maybe we can get together then.

If gus is going to Charlottesville, I'm going too. I can look for real estate while I'm there since it will be too cold to do much hiking.
