I nominate you as the crankiest poster ever
In that case, I'll nominate Paul Wozniak as the unluckiest poster and myself as the most clairvoyant poster.

Wahhh. I nominate you as the crankiest poster ever!
I don't care what you call me just don't mis-quote me.
BTW, I am a native New Englander, we are born cranky, it's the weather
I was checking out the506.com on NFL Blackouts historically, and I found a stat that I consider appaling:
The506 Broadcast Maps Forum - Blackout history
In 1984, the Dolphins had 6 home games blacked out. SIX?!
A Dolphins team that went 14-2 in Dan Marino's greatest season ever only sold out TWO home games?
And it was only the last two.
I also found out that the Dolphins came very close to blacking out their playoff game against the Chargers in 1992-93 (The 31-0 shutout in bad weather), and that their wild-card games against the Colts in 2000 and Ravens a year later were also blacked out.
I find that absolutely appalling.
How did you get that picture?
I had a thread on bad-weather sporting events, and you said you couldn't make it.

1. It's amazing how competitve New England continues to play without Tom Brady and with a good portion of their team decimated by injuries.
2. The ultimate call in football is the decision to go for 2 and the win with time expiring or kick the extra point to tie and put the game into overtime. The Pats chose the conservative method and left their fate in the hands of a coin flip. Should they have pulled a Herm Edwards and "played to win the game" at the end of the 4th?
3. The Jets are in first place?! Wow. Seems like eternity since this has happened. Looks like all of their off-season signings are starting to pay off, including that Old Gunslinger nobody wanted.
4. Tony Romo should be back for Sunday night's game against the Skins. Will he save their season? It was amazing how awful they looked with Brad Johnson/Brooks Bolinger at QB.
5. The Saints and Chiefs game on Sunday has all the makings to be one of the most lopsided margins of defeat in Kansas City history. I think Drew Brees has a legitamite shot at besting Norm Van Brocklin's record of 554 yards in a 1951 game.
6. Keep an eye on Buffalo's weather for Monday Night. According to Weather Underground, they're calling for a low of 27°F and a 90% chance of snow. Heavy snow would be a perfect tribute to last year's epic "Snow Bowl" in Cleveland.
7. Curious to see what "Earth, Wind and Fire" can do to Baltimore's defense. If anyone can break the Ravens streak of holding opposing offenses to under 100 yards rushing, it's the New York Football Giants.
8. Who looks more like Fozzy Bear? Eric Mangini or Mike Leach?
9. I'm picking Detroit to stun the world and get their first win against the Panthers this week.
10. Despite harsh critics loathing the fact the Browns got 5 nationally televised games this year, they have played exceptionally well when under the national spotlight. Week 2 was a hard fought defensive struggle against Pittsburgh in hurricane conditions. Pitt won 10-6. During Week 6, the Browns delivered the only loss to the defending Super Bowl Champs by a score of 35-14. Week 10 featured the debut of Brady Quinn and a nail biting finish. In the end, Denver won 34-30. I hope for another fun game this Monday at Ralph Wilson Stadium.
In that case, I'll nominate Paul Wozniak as the unluckiest poster and myself as the most clairvoyant poster.
Luck has nothing to do with it. The Lions have been sh!tty for a long time,(not to mention that they give me a lot to write about) the Tigers and MICHIGAN will bounce back, and I still have the Pistons (The Beast of the East), and the reigning Stanley Cup winners in my corner of the world. MSU basketball isn't exactly chopped liver, either. Don't cry for me.
I said consideration.
I am so sorry that the Browns suck!
Sabres, what do you have to say about Brandon Jacobs and the New York Football Giants rushing all over the best rushing defense in the league (Rat Birds)?
If you check the Week 11 thread, I actualy PICKED the Giants to win:

Delhomme doesn't need to do much. The Panthers have 155 rushing yards in the 1st half. The Lions kicker is the only thing keeping them in the game.How bout the barn burner in Carolina?
Detroit 16
Carolina 21
Come on Detroit! Cullpepper out dualing Delhomme. at the half.
