— Dave in Texas Never has such a playoff thread been so anticipated. I'm a big fan of anticipation myself, it helps the ladies manage their disappointment later.
I think.
First up, Ravens and Steelers. Next up, Packers and the Falcons.
Also, if Adrian Peterson shows up at your McDonalds at 3 in the morning and wants to use the restroom, you should check with your district manager before letting him in.
Rules are rules.
CDR M sent me a Seahawks cheerleader pic but they don't play until Sunday so you have to wait.
ALSO! Playoff thingy standings after last weekend:
1 Physics Geek's Entry 120
2 MoronPunditRules 110
3 Mrs.M 95
4 CharlieBrown'sDildo 94
5 Quarreyman 91

Think I'm leaning Ravens, but I'm still not sure. Hate Ray Lewis, hate Rapistburger the greater beta. Hmmm.....
In the second game Packers. Aaron Rodgers is fun to watch.
As for the cheerleader....eh.

the key to the game is is for the Ravens to get off to a fast start
if they can get an early lead and keep it, they will win

Ravens suck and the Steelers don't
Who picked the name Ravens for an NFL team ? They deserve to loose for just that.
But seriously Baltimore - get ready for your winter vacation.

I think the Steelers will win (although I'm rooting for the Ravens out of regional allegiance - grew up in MD).
But you're so wrong about the team name. It's great. Edgar Allen Poe, baby. And ravens are pretty damned tough birds. Plus, it lent itself to great uniform colors - black and purple.
I'd say the Ravens is one of the best of the modern teams in terms of packaging.

Yeah, but we just reload on RBs, and Marquis Maze is going to be almost as good as Julio. The question is which QB wins the starting spot.
Auburn's losing its entire O line, Fairley, and CAM.NEWTON!
Posted by: toby928™ at January 15, 2011 12:53 PM (S5YRY)
Who picked the name Ravens for an NFL team ?
It is supposed to be for Edgar Allan Poe who was from Baltimore. If they wanted a city centric name they didn't have many choices. "TheWorstDrivers" wouldn't be a good name either. Or the "Mikulskis" which would mean they were dwarfs. It was a tough one.

73 We're having grinders. For you non-New Englanders (my parents and hubby are from NE) that means hot subs, usually hot Italian sausage.
Would that be like sausage and peppers ?
Onion, Green peppers & Italian sausage slow simmered in a pan till done. then on an Italian roll ? no sauce

We always had it with red sauce (and green peppers and onions; mom always took the sausage out of the casing and flattened it into elongated patties, too). I don't know if it "counts" as a real hot sausage grinder if you don't have the sauce.
Do we have any New Englanders who can address this crucial question? I'm only a New Englander once removed.

Native New Englander here. Grinders are the same as "subs", hoagies, etc. It's a generic term to describe that Subway shape/type of roll whether hot, cold, small, large, whatever.
Exception that proves the rule: I always call meatball grinders "subs".

Mission Accomplished:
Toward the end of the town hall meeting Saturday morning, one of the shooting victims, J. Eric Fuller, took exception to comments by two of the speakers: Ariz. state Rep. Terri Proud, a Dist. 26 Republican, and Tucson Tea Party spokesman Trent Humphries.
According to sheriff's deputies at the scene, Fuller took a photo of Humphries and said, "You're Dead."
Deputies immediately escorted Fuller from the room.
Pima County Sheriff's spokesman Jason Ogan said later Saturday that Fuller has been charged with threats and intimidation and he also will be charged with disorderly conduct.
Among the dignitaries at the town hall taping were Mayor Bob Walkup, U.S. Rep. Raul Grijalva and former Congressman Jim Kolbe.

Any recommendations on how to prepare (roast; I don't have a grill or smoker right now) leg o' lamb? Our neighbor gave us a ~7 lb leg of semi-boneless lamb.
I was just going to do a garlicky herby rub, but thought I'd check with you to see if you have a favorite recipe. (I want to use the leftovers for lamb tagine, so I'd rather not steep the entire thing in very aggressive flavors, unless they'd complement that set of spices.)

This game is painful to watch, not just as a steelers fan, but in general. It has been nothing but penalty flags and commercials.
Also, how the hell is Jeff Triplet still allowed to ref steeler games after what he did on that thanksgiving day game with Detroit and pittsburgh

Well, she's a collie so I'm thinking it's probably genetically hard-wired that she not eat sheep, just herd and guard them!
I know a lot of people hate lamb, but we love it. I don't tend to do legs o' lamb because there's just two of us but our Mormon neighbor (well, they're all Mormon, who am I kidding?) gave us this leg so what the heck!

yeah, I'm a little surprised at all the flags. Seemed like last week the refs had their flags sewed to their pockets.
And the commercials are worse on CBS, I think, because of that damned out-ro/intro music.

I think maybe more Spite, I was arrested for a DIP in front of the track at Indy on the Saturday night before the race in 1991. I had had 1 beer, literally because I drove the motor home the final stretch.
My wife suggested I step up on the guard rail to get a better picture in front of the track entrance, a cop took me away. I was DIP'ed without a breathalizer because he "smelled alcohol". I spent the night in jail, ran to the track to see the race the next mornig, Had to go to court and plead guilty or spend two more days to plead innocent. Ugly, not so much but I don't like Indy and I was also at the first Brickyard...

Pete Carroll was the head of the Patriots for 3 years, 97, 98, and 99.
I think, not sure, I think he was 2nd youngest coach at the time. Second to Jeff Fisher.
Maybe 3rd youngest, now that I think about.
John Gruden mighta been the 2nd youngest at the time.
