  1. That is Pinnacle Peak aka Mount Peak in the first photo and Mt. Rainer in the second photo, so that is Enumclaw, Washington. You can reach Eunumclaw by taking the 410 east from Tacoma or the 169 south from Seattle.

  4. Ok. If Philadelphia wins Monday Night, then redrum and jabe tie for the week. If Kansas City wins, then it's a 5-way logjam.
  5. Seattle losing today, and losing Geno Smith in the process, takes some of the lustre off Thanksgiving night's 49ers @ Seahawks game. Not that I thought Seattle was going to win anyway, but it's going to be difficult for the Seahawks to even keep the game competitive without their starting QB.
  6. Yep. And Betty White, Billy Barty, and Ruth Buzzi. You have to have a certain amount of grey hairs to remember Ruth Buzzi. Not much in the looks department but I remember her appearing on Bowling For Dollars wearing some tight jeans (maybe Dittos?) and thinking her butt looked pretty nice.
  7. Were those Dodge Darts? I see what you did there. Hehehe.
  8. Dallas....The only way to make up ground on the people ahead of me is to go against the grain on multiple picks, especially when Dallas is involved and you know they're picking the Cowboys. But hard as I tried, I just could not conceive of any rationale in picking the Panthers. It would take a team-wide F-grade effort for the Cowboys to lose this game. Pittsburgh...Fuck Cleveland. Fuck DeShaun Watson. Detroit....Ordinarily I would think a team like Detroit would have a hiccup or two along the way to the playoffs. But not against their hated rival the Bears. I see Campbell's Lions keeping pedal to the metal. Green Bay...It's the moment of truth for the Chargers. And it's in those moments that they usually come up short. Houston....Scooter Boo vs. CJ. How long has it been since the Texans were relevant? Jacksonville...Last week was disheartening but I won't give up on Doug and Trevor just yet. Miami...If Miami's coach is truly one of the league's best and brightest, there is no way he loses to the discombobulated Raiders. This should be a blowout. Washington...I'll try my luck with the Redskin Taters. San Francisco...So the 49ers were playing possum, after all. Baker Mayfield vs. Brock Purdy. Buffalo...I thought hard about picking the Jets. But I can't wish that much pain on Rick. Besides, any team still relying on Zach Wilson doesn't deserve my support. Seattle...I know friends going to the game. Cost them $500 for two tix. They'll be cheering for Seattle...just like the majority of the stadium will be. Denver....That bug-eyed alien has been working miracles for Minnehaha but it ends in primetime in the Mile High City. Kansas City....I just have a feeling a couple crucial calls will go Taylor Swift's way.
  9. I appreciate the gesture fellas, but rules are rules. I'll take the L.
  10. I fucked up and forgot to get my pick in last night. 🤦‍♂️
  11. PC doing his best to keep Popeye's solvent.
  12. Despite all of Billy Corgan's rage, he is still just a A) Fool on a stage B ) Baldheaded sage C) Product of his age D) Rat in a cage
  13. That is why it was more amazing that George Blanda played as long as he did than Tom Brady.
  14. Well, Noseratu Bat Boy has finally killed my interest in the NBA. This idiotic wanna-be-like-soccer cash-grab in-season tournament is a joke. That's it. I'm done with the sport. Fuck off and die Adam Silver.
  15. A friend hooked me up with tix for The Hives tonight at the Belasco.
  16. Shades of Pink Floyd, Spacemen 3, and Spiritualized with this one.
  17. And Jimmy blew a kiss to Bernie. So what? What's the big deal? The fun thing about watching the whole ceremony was catching all the reaction shots from Jimmy and his lady Scarlett. And Little Steven and Tom Morello fan-boying over Jimmy.
