Selene Posted October 21, 2014 Share Posted October 21, 2014 Nice site Adam. Thanks for the link.-JHow's your Seattle doing?Go Denver!Lol...I knew I was going to have to take that hit.The Cowboys surprised me, and, obviously surprised Seattle's entire team.As you know, Denver improved their week spots defensively.Seattle seems to have some inside the locker room problems. We will see how unloading what ever his name is to the Jets helps Seattle. The Jets, sad to say appear beyond hope.My Giants are attempting to explain how your offensive line can possibly be so undisciplined that they commit penalties that kill drives.. That will not work with Giant fans.A... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for the rest, I'll just keep my immune system primed. They don't tell you about the mercury and aluminum adjuncts and if you ask they'll go tut-tut-tut.--Brant Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
