    You really do say the exact opposite of the truth...

    Cicadas fly like drunken idiots. Never, ever, do they soar, dive OR "burro."

    So, using your cicada analogy, the Steelers will drunkenly mosey about the playing field as the Ravens catch them and rip their wings off.

    I would really like to meet you in real life. What do you say everyone? Locker Combo meet and greet?

    Those uniforms are awesome. Ben won't even have to change his clothes when he finally lands in prison.

    It doesn't really matter who said it first, but you really should take their advice:

    Okay, I'll explain it to you. You may want to take notes.

    For every team in the NFL, 14 of their yearly opponents are predetermined YEARS in advance. Their other two opponents are determined by their place in the standing the prior season.

    6 games - Every team plays every other team in their division twice
    4 games - Each team in a division plays each team in one other predetermined division in their own conference (on a three year rotation)
    4 games - Each team in a division plays each team in one other predetermined division in the other conference (on a four year rotation)
    2 games - Each team plays the team that finished in the same position as they did in the other two divisions in their conference

    Lets take your Colts and the AFC South as an example:
    6 Games - Houston x2, Jacksonville x2, Tennessee x2
    4 Games - Houston, Jacksonville, Tennessee and Indianapolis ALL play the AFC East (Patriots, Jets, Bills and Dolphins)
    4 Games - Houston, Jacksonville, Tennessee and Indianapolis ALL play the NFC North (Packers, Bears, Vikings, Lions)
    2 Games - The Colts will play the other two LAST PLACE teams from the AFC (Browns and Chiefs). The Texans will play the Ravens & Broncos. The Titans will play the Steelers and Chargers. The Jaguars will play the Bengals and Raiders.

    Do you now understand why the Colts and Patriots seemingly played each other every year? Do you now understand how I was able to definitively tell you that no matter how much you want to see it, Andrew Luck and Robert Griffin III will only be scheduled to play each other every four years (if they remain with the Colts & Redskins)? It has nothing to do with the 'PTB' finagling the schedule. It had everything to do with the template that has been in place for years.

    You really don't know much about football, do you?

    You should join a teacher's union, given the amount of time you spend trying to educate LC.

    I thought you were on a self imposed ban for a month. After the beating you took on the Ravens not getting prime time games, you said you would. I guess you even lie about this.

    Never said that.....someone else proposed it.

    As you should know by my actions after the @PIT game last yr.....when I do make a bet I keep to it.

    That is one pathetic looking uniform. I don't know who decided to go with them, but really they should think again. At some point in time you have to look at what was and say, NO. Maybe the goal is to crack the other team up so badly that they won't be able to concentrate. Ouch, very ugly.
