NFL Week #17 So Far -- 10:42 pm CST, Update by A.T. Hun

I'm on pace to have my best week all year in my NFL picks. I am 12-2, Eeyore is right behind at 11-3. We'll probably keep picking in the playoffs just for giggles.

*Aaack* *Gasp* -- 3:26 pm CST, Update by A.T. Hun

That great big gagging sound you just heard was my stinking, worthless, God-forsaken Lions choking their way out of the playoffs. I guess I can chalk it up to a mercy killing since they would have lost in the first round of the playoffs anyway.

New Doom Legacy -- 11:43 am CST, Update by A.T. Hun

Bleh -- 8:50 am CST, Update by The Master

Well, in our part of the world it's Christmas Eve. So, here's wishing you all a Merry one, those who celebrate it.

The empty post that's been online since 12:30 am was the result of my ISP's (RoadRunner) gift to me this year, a fifth weekend of flaky or nonexistent internet connectivity. Sorry about that all (two of you :-).

A.T. Hun comments: Glad to know RR gave you such a sweet Christmas present. We opened up our presents last night. Santa didn't bring me Q3:TA, but that will be quickly rememdied :) I did get some loud and obnoxious music which is always A Good Thing.
