Default Appreciation thread for alamo's 'guess the score' game

Every week it must be a ton of work to compile all the data from that week and the previous bits of the season, keeping track of who still has a 'bye' week and who cannot miss another week. It is a hell of a lot of fun, and on this short week I imagine it will be a real pain in the butt!

Well, alamo, I for one love the game and greatly appreciate your hard work!

Both have the same effect, but Manning transcends measurable human intellect while Brady merely chooses a different play.

The one down side, I sometimes become a total idiot during the games. Last week when the Bills only had 3 points I found myself thinking, "Crap they better score one more or else I'll take a big hit in the guess the score contest."

I quickly hit myself with a beer bottle.

A compliment or a thinly veiled reminder?

Regardless, yeah Alamo, thanks a million. It's a lot of fun. For the record, I thought the same thing about the score for a minute and then suffered minor anxiety when they actually scored a TD.

How about more people showing appreciation to our Veterans on THEIR DAY? Who cares about a guess the score game on a day like today? Without those men and women who have served this country, many of whom have given their lives, we wouldn't have this country and you wouldn't have some stupid game.

I am extremely disappointed that none of the Mods have stickied the thread that was started by NEGIRLPATSFAN and disappointed that more people haven't posted in that thread. It truly is sad how much we take for granted in this country.

It has nothing to do with being from Boston and everything to do with people like yourself taking our freedoms for granted. God forbid you take 30 seconds out of your life to stop and pay thanks to the people who have ensured that you can post on this board. I really don't think its that much to ask. But, then, I cherish my freedom and thank the people who have ensured it for me every chance I get.

A little off topic you think.

How dare you question my sincerity! This thread is about the game, not about me.

Yes we can.

I am honoring one of the people that fight for our right to goof off once a week.

Yes we can.

I am earnest and guileless.

Yes we can.

I am Patriotic!

Yes we can.
