Thanks for remembering, GB. His wife makes great crab dip and cajun shrimp. He's no slouch himself. He makes great hot wings. My contribution to the culinary delights usually consists of two or three bags of snacks. π
I don't know if the Eagles will win the game, but I'd take the points, too. I see the game being decided by a field goal either way.
Originally posted by Grampy BobbyGood point about the momentum. But I still can't shake the possibility of Andy Reid wanting to call 50 pass plays in a cold and windy Meadowlands.

By the way, on my weekly foraging mission to Walmart today picked up a new item, "Frank's Red Hot Sauce Buffalo Chicken Pizza" for NFL.
Here's an interesting bit of trivia regarding the San Diego/Pittsburgh game for you:
SD is 0-13 all-time when playing in Pittsburgh during the regular season. But they're 2-0 there in the playoffs. I'm taking SD in the upset. π
Let me know if the pizza lives up to its name. π

Originally posted by Grampy BobbyHeck, no! Sounds like a smart move to me. The only game that should be more lopsided than seven is the Carolina/Arizona game. I like Philly and SD with the points. And I like the Ravens to win outright.

hence my "(I hope)". Just learned Balt is the underdog. Whew. What a pleasant surprise. Presence of bleu cheese made the pizza distinctive.
