You see, this is gunna be your downfall actually. Your team is going to quickly become the Lakers of the NFL: you'll have your run, you'll get cocky, and then you'll completely be dismantled. And of course, people you've upset with your cockiness will have by then learned voodoo and, well, we'll see.... 😏
And remember: it wasn't so long ago that your team was nowhere near a winning record and were also being counted out. In fact, EVERY YEAR there's some team that's counted out that makes a huge impact. (Look at the Panthers and the Bengals last year!) Let's all just pray that Brady doesn't mess up his pretty face, cause he may be doing commentary for ESPN sooner than he thinks. 😀

Originally posted by seraphimvultureThat's fair enough then, I suppose. So it's settled. If the Patriots sweep the Dolphins this year, you, Seraphimvulture, will sport the Flying Elvis as your avatar. If the Dolphins sweep the Patriots, Phlabibit and myself, Natural Science, will have Snowflake the Dolphin, or whatever the hell you guys call him,as our avatar. Agreed?
Well, considering the Patriots are the defending SuperBowl champions and now have a Mr. Corey Dillon pulling their load, and the Dolphins didn't even get into the playoffs last year and currently have a Mr. Travis Minor yanking their chain, I think those are good enough odds to just let the bet be Phlabbit and NS against myself.
I guess we should next specify the for how long this will remain in effect.

Seraphim (or is it vulture?), Bill Belichick is not the Zen Master. He doesn't let the players run the team. And he won't let them get cocky or proud of themselves. Think anyone is still celebrating the Super Bowl victory? Two years ago at about this time, Belichick printed out T-shirts and gave them to the players. Here's what was on them:
AFC East Standings:
W L T
Buffalo 0 0 0
Miami 0 0 0
New Englan 0 0 0
N.Y. Jets 0 0 0
Edit: I guess it's formatted to automatically left-justify, but you get the idea.

My local sports radio Score am/fm has a ricky report almost every day....
They play a bong gurgle sound bite at the start, and Snoop and Dre's 'smoke weed every day' at the end!
Ha!
I'm in the bet, Go Pats!

Latest on Ricky: Now he's saying he would like to go play for Oakland in 2005! I'm betting that ain't sitting too well with his former teamates.
