I think we'll stick to the Tampa Bay Downs by day and Derby Lane by night double header and stay far far away from that.

I won't ask where you found that, because I probably don't want to know. I'm sure it involved tube socks though....

Yeah ... I'm like the CIA when it comes to anything about either horse racing or porn. Sooner or later - I see everything.

Though, that is most definitely not porn. I give it a very low jerkability rating and those two bruisers should be up for attempted murder.

Sadly, the Patriots choked on Bronco cock the entire 2nd half. ZERO 2nd half points ... and another OT loss because they called the coin toss wrong.

How's it feel to be 3-2!?!?!? ......

Awwwweeee sh!t!

I will pass on the ass kicking. My face is too good looking to risk anything like that.

On a related note, I am getting SERIOUS double header fever...

Great game.

He was wide open for an easy TD and Brady threw a duck over his head.

The stat line reads one catch for 33 - and one INT on defense ... but when you have Champ Bailey and a safety most of the game ... it's the other guys that have to step up and exploit the big mismatches ... and Welker is obviously not healthy by his play and neither is Brady full recovered. They lost Matt Light in the 3rd quarter as well.

The team is basically the walking wounded.

How'd Welker do today? I know he also had a bad pass from Brady that was an easy TD.

I'll sum up Moss' day...he had one more catch than I did. Who cares about his interception? The smarter play would have been to knock it down.

Moss was thrown at 3 times the whole game ...

* One play he got wide open in the endzone on a busted coverage and Brady saw it -- but he badly missed the throw for an easy TD. That's a throw I can make 95 out of 100 times ... I think Brady wasn't expecting to throw the ball Moss's way and got so excited when he saw the busted coverage he blew the throw.

* the 2nd time was another busted coverage - Moss went in motion and there was miscommunication with the defense - Brady was sharp enough to see it but misfired again.

* The 3rd time he was thrown at he gained 33 yards on a short pass with some good YAC.


Here's a quote from Revis from the other Jets loss ....

Quote:
"That was our game plan even if Wes Welker was in the game or not," said Jets cornerback Darrelle Revis. "I was going to be covering Randy Moss the entire game. We were going to let our nickel guy handle Wes Welker."

"Nickel guy? Was that the same "nickel guy" who got torched by a rookie seventh-round draft pick. A quarterback at Kent State in college who wasn't even activated for the opener and lined up in the wrong spot several times!"


It was basically the great Champ Bailey on Moss with safety help most of the game. When a defense wants to take someone out of the game ... you don't force the ball to said guy ... you exploit mis-matches that creates.


Moss may have caught one more pass than you ... but you wouldn't have occupied a hall of fame cornerback with frequent safety help .. and basically created a power play scenerio for the rest of the Pats offense.

All the best receivers get safety help. They catch more than one ball.
