Chaloots is right. One of us has to leave. It will be me.
No more need to point out the contest. I have lost.
It took perhaps the greatest moose in FCS history to do it:
And if you didn’t see it, Morgan State up 23-30 had the ball on 2nd and 10 with 1:07 left in the game. Yes, Morgan State had the ball on their own 2.
Delaware State got a safety. 25-30.
Ensuing punt resulted in a 57 yard return to the MS 23.
Then in 3rd and goal from the 5, the refs played their part like dutiful soldiers taking their commands from on high in battle, obedient to the bitter end calling not DSU (who had the ball for holding) but holding on Morgan State.
Yes a holding call on the defense.
It was straight out of Glory as Snowflake shoved his bayonet into the back of a Confederate only to be bayoneted into his back. The refs killing the only way they can, as they sneak you.
DSU scores on the next play to make it 31-30 for the greatest FCS moose, possibly ever. Strike the possibly from that sentence.
If you thought the Bills team total over 8 wins loss with F Lee Bailey and Johnny Cochran at the window with the firing of Rex right before the Jets game to take my cash was bad, it had nothing on this.
You know you are doing things right when you lose like that.
A combined 45-7 lead in two games....where Stump chimed in that things would he interesting because he saw the score. Hugh and Packers were literally in a fetal position when they saw the tsunami coming for them.And to lose both at the gun. Sometimes a squirrel finds a nut...or in this case...two nuts which helped out... two nuts.
Folks as I’ve said many time: lose with Scal today? Win tomorrow.
And tomorrow is here:
So the picks for the winners today are:
#1 - Bucs over Jets pickum (Fitz last stand just like the 54th in Glory how apropos)
#2 - Broncos +7 over Pats (with the biggest home spread since 1992 for Denver)
No I will not write them up here. Not enough eyeballs to value them.
So I will leave on the Super Bowl as we all agreed but won’t be posting as much.
I believe I’m 55-57 in the main forum but the mods refuse to let me post there so now that this is over I’ll post here. But I’m not sure but it will all be said and done at the SB anyway.
Poo thank you for all your support. I’m at peace there will be no more cursing or anger or insults. I feel good still have a nice roll and will try to sweep both games above. Any post can be my last. That’s just the way life goes. Losing the way I do? In the words of Billy Crystal...Maaaahhhhhvelous
