The DP dot com Football Pool (Wk 5)

boys

I’m all hype for this weekend because I get to see where my Cowboys rank inside of the NFC East. Philadelphia has been a tough matcchup for us the last few years since DONOVAN McNABB came to Broad Street. I hope T.O. has a monster afternoon, but I really need our running game to get off the skids. This weekend will go a long way to letting me know if the ‘Boys are built for January.

I told you I wasn’t betting against the Ravens this week. Since them dudes is playing on Monday night they won’t be in our pool this weekend. I am ready for them to lose a game too. Who do these dudes think they are? The ’72 Dolphins?!? (LM, that is the right year, right?) Anyhoo, Chicago returns to the pool this weekend as well as the Giants. I’m hoping that the ‘Skins can beat the Giants and send the New York football beat writers into a frenzy. How many NFL coaches have been fired before week 6 (LM knows the answer).

BUFFALO BILLS @ CHICAGO BEARS
Buffalo wings versus bratwurst equals massive indigestion. Chicago’s defense gets in done in the windy city.

MIAMI DOLPHINS @ NEW ENGLAND PATRIOTS
I keep putting Miami in the pool because ALEX 2.0 is in love with DUANTE CULPEPPER. Face it ALEX 2.0, DUANTE is gay and so are the Dolphins. Patriots handle their B.I.

TAMPA BAY BUCCANEERS @ NEW ORLEANS SAINTS
The swamp at the SuperDome is where you can find decomposing corpses and CHRIS SIMMS spleen. I’m not exactly sure what a spleen is, but not having one sounds like a problem. The Saints will rip the spleen from the Bucs arses and then eat it.

WASHINGTON REDSKINS @ NEW YORK GIANTS
Try to imagine all the losers in NYC that live for sports talk radio. If the Giants lose this game what happened to those little Amish girls will seem like a picnic compared to the carnage of balding middle aged males from New Jersey coming up from their basements to choke their mothers. Thank GOD for the Giants.

KANSAS CITY CHIEFS @ ARIZONA CARDINALS
Now that the Chiefs have a win under their belt its time to return back to the cellar of the AFC West. Arizona rookie QB MATT LEINART gets fat off poor KC defense.

NEW YORK JETS @ JACKSONVILLE JAGUARS
This is a tough one and I’m going to have to go with my head and say that the Jags need this game for some eemotional stability. After being pwned by Washington in OT the Jags will show some urgency and resolve early in this game.

DALLAS COWBOYS @ PHILADELPHIA EAGLES
You know my steez…

I am so feeling seven for seven this week. You don’t have to rush your picks since the post stays active all weekend, just make sure that you drop your picks before the first game’s kickoff.

    You know I don’t follow sports how I used to…

    The real question is whether the BEARS D will outscore the Bills O.

    Daunte’s resurrection will occur. But not against the PATRIOTS. I was wrong about him having a career day last week; instead, Mario Williams did.

    I am rooting for the SAINTS to make the playoffs and Jon “Chucky” Gruden’s head to explode.

    This is the week Gregg Williams’ D puts on a show. REDSKINS

    CHIEFS D gets fat off poor Matt Leinart.

    The Jets show promise. But they won’t beat the JAGUARS on the road.

    DP, I didn’t realize until this season you were a ‘Boys fan. It’s a tribute to us that we’re still on speaking terms. I’m almost sorry about the crap the EAGLES will drop on the Dallas squad.

    “After being pwned by Washington in OT the Jags will show some urgency and resolve early in this game.”

    No way, y0. I’d put my CL Low JIII’s on it. KC 24 AZ 13

  6. J™ says:

    oops, meant to quote the Lienart part.

    P.S. How does one get in on this pool?

  7. Amadeo says:

    Da Bears (that should be a good game though)
    Do I really have to say the Patriots?
    The Saints
    Redskins (barring a miracle, after the game all reporters will run to Shockeys locker)
    I need Leinhart to play well cause Boldin is on my Fantasy team but, I pick the Chiefs
    Jag-u-ars (Queens English)
    Cowboys (The Eagles secondary is too hurt to stop Terry Glenn and no one ever stops T.O.)

  24. S Dot says:

    I’m looking to Takeover this pool sh*t:

    Bears
    Patriots
    Saints
    Redskins
    Cardinals
    Jags
    E-A-G-L-E-S

    And no one is allowed to talk about us Philly sports fans until you live here and deal with:

    1) The team with the most losses in SPORTS history–The Phillies (yes, not just baseball, but ALL OF SPORTS). 120+ years of existence = 1 title. The Florida Marlins = 2 rings in 13 years.
    2) No championships for any of the 4 major teams (Sixers, Phillies, Eagles, Flyers) since 1983!!?!
    3) One of the worst GM’s in basketball–Billy King (aka Michael Wilbon’s clean cut mo’pussy getting brother)
    4) The HIGHEST PAID PLAYER in the NBA this season–Chris Webber at $23 million
    5) Andy Reid’s caloric intake

  25. the_dallas says:

    Eagles are totally getting pwned this weekend. Boo hoo, Philly hasn’t had any champs because you are a suburb of NYC. Get with the winners S Dot.

    How ’bout them Cowboys!?!?!

  26. Candice says:

    Uh Dallas….the Philly fans were outside throwing pills at pictures of TO at the downtown pep rally.

    I just saw a vendor selling shirts that say “Cowboys suck, TO swallows”.

    This is gonna be one crazy game. DAMN.

  27. 40 Dawg: The Light-Skinned Richard Roundtree says:

    Let me say this. As someone lived in Philly for 6 years, those people are insane. I mean for the sake of all thats holy they really need to let that city get a championship. They truly are “The Most Depraved Fans In America”.

  28. LM says:

    El A in the D and S Dot are wittier than anyone commenting at Deadspin, ever.

  29. Candice says:

    I used to think NY fans were off the chain….Philly has us beat. They are desperate and violent. Not a good combo.
