Personally, I vote Bama #1 because they've dominated that SOS. If he stumbles he'll fall but that depends who he stumbles to. I think Biffy took it as an attack because of past attacks but it wasn't meant that way. As long as this doesn't get to Jim Rome and Chris...I mean Jim Everett proportions it's all good.

is it any different really then if the real life Bama team played FAMU, Army and whoever in OOC would they pretty much be #1

No and I'm not knocking Bama and his choice of who he plays at all.

i think we mean the same exact thing, we just say it differently.

when i hear guys saying, 'i don't care if i win or lose, i just want to have fun'... i mean of course we are playing to have fun first and foremost, but we should all want to win also as long as we don't compromise how we play to get those wins. like i said, maybe i'm just an idealist to think guys can be both mature and want to win... i'd like to think outside of a small handful, we've got that in this league.

I don't know...I go into every game FULLY expecting to lose, its become a foregone conclusion in my psyche I think. I can now, thanks to all the pummeling's, say I don't care if I win or lose when I start the game. I've played a ton of fun games this season though and almost hate to leave a school like EMU...but I will :evil:

On a funny note though, my wife can always tell when I finally win a game. I'm usually very very very happy for the next few hours. Dancing around the house, high fiving her and the dog. It's truly classic :D

I am not saying you were, just seems like every year this type thing is brought up with some team.

I mean if its Air Force doing it its one thing, most BCS conference teams i would think its a different story

Haha, I know what you mean, when I beat blackrain this season, it was like the heaven's shined down on me! I was so happy.

I was about to do a NDL Cup massive post but got pissed when I saw Bama and TCU already played and didn't do it.

I'm actually out of ideas right now, no idea what to write about.


Plus Shel left me from the morning shift so I have nothing else to do. I may do an award watch or do the ultimate tedious activity of ndl history scores.

I just want to say thanks for getting Boston College a little credit. If my QB wasn't so hit and miss it could be a much different season.

In a good way, my qb has had games where he couldn't hit the broad side of a barn and I've generally lost those games. I could have had somewhat of a fighting chance against Virginia Tech. Funny cause I play Florida State the night of Hurricane Irene and the winds are blowing 19 mph side to side and he actually does pretty well.
