And I thought I was doing terrible in straight W-L records....I'm tied for second....with about 10 others. LOL! :lol: 8)
They’re either going to run the ball here or their going to pass it.

The fewer rules a coach has, the fewer rules there are for players to break.

See, well ya see, the thing is, he should have caught that ball. But the ball is bigger than his hands.

Just don't think because you are in second that you are not doing terrible!

Maybe you should have spent a little more time on it. You assigned 31 points to both Texas A&M and Virginia Tech. However, you did not assign 8 points to any team. If this was unintentional, let me know which team you would like to have 8 points. If this was intended, you got caught, as this gave you potentially an additional 25 points. (Nice Try)

Caught me! Give Texas A&M 8 points.
The preceding statements are solely the opinion of GoBoilers and are, therefore, probably not based whatsoever on fact, research or more time in thought than what was required to physically type them. They're probably correct anyway, so you shouldn't argue too much, because otherwise he'll just blather on forever. On the internet Al Gore invented.

I'm on a 5-0 run. That helps I'm changing this to sticky.

Exactly, before I though I would just let it fade into the night. :lol: I may decide to take the sticky off if I take another bad down turn. :oops:

Tulsa ended my streak this morning. Looks like Iowa State is going to be the second game in starting a bad streak, Back to reality. :oops:

We expect no less....there was a kid..maybe it was I, that when we use to play baseball in our neighborhood would take his ball and gone home when he was not winning....So we thank you for "cowboying up" to do your duty.

16-4 and 15-5 for bowl games is fantastic, as these games mostly have smaller spreads than do our weekly 20 games.

Mountainman is the only guy we have ever had to finish at 80%.
