In the immortal words of Carl Spackler: "I guess we're playing for keeps now. I guess the kidding around is pretty much over. I guess it's just a matter of pumping about 5,000 gallons of water down there to teach you a lesson. Is that it? I think it is! ". The Patriots are pissed off. They want your lunch money. If you don't give it up right now, they are going to meet you at the bike racks at 3 o'clock and beat you until the other kids feel bad for you and pull them off, then they are going to run back and kick you in the face when everyone thinks the fight is over. Then they are going to walk off laughing and whistling. They just don't care what people think anymore. It's best to hand over the 25 cents at this point and just skip the confrontation. My favorite team has turned into a group of bullies...and I must admit, I'm enjoying watching the show.

Team members have a choice of Halloween costumes this year: Nelson Muntz (Ha-HA!), Johnny from Karate Kid, Jason, Freddy, Dr. Doom, Lex Luther, or Bizzaro Superman. Bellichick will be Darth Vader. They have been stealing eggs and shaving cream from the local Stop & Shop for weeks now. But that won't be enough. On Halowwen night they will all raid Boe-Boe's gun closet for maximum killing potential. Like I said, they just don't care any more. they are planning a Columbine style assualt on The Colts in their own Dome.

The Colts will all be dressed as firemen, cops, ninja turtles, clowns, and army men. it won't matter. Peyton will try his best in the Lone Ranger uniform, but he just can't get as evil as the team coming to town. he will go home crying. His candy bag will have a big hole in the bottom. There will be no Milky Ways with Kenny Chesney this year.

For the last few weeks it wasn't "if they win...", it was "how badly can they beat these guys?" or "can they score at least 34 again?". I can't wait to see this game.

Big news on the job front this week. Balsac's wife started a new gig at KPMG out in NJ. Also, our own Bag Boy Randie has cut ties with his former employer and is blazing the trail himself. let us all applaud and drool over the prospect of being our own boss. I would give myself a raise everyday and beer at lunch. But then I would probably have to fire myself for getting too expensive and too drunk. Hmmm...maybe I'm not set up for that gig. At anyrate, I'm still jealous. maybe we can get Randie Corporate sponsorship for the GB2K7 this year....are we a non profit?

Thoughts for the week:
1. Um, so the Lions won apparently. Good for them. Unfortunately, I still don't care. Enough about the Lions.
2. The Cardinals had a bye week. Awesome. We don't have to talk about them either.
3. How bad is David Carr if you pick Vinny Testaverde to start over him? I mean, the coaching staff is basically saying, "We're gona start the guy who was sitting on his couch 2 weeks ago over you David. No, no, it's nothing you did...". Then when he gets knocked out, they have Carr handing the ball off on 3rd and 10 when the game is still in reach. Miserable times.
4. The Fins succeed in doing something no one else has done before: Losing a regular season game in Europe. Good work! Ted Ginn did catch a nice pass though, so you should really feel good about that first round pick right?
5. Pennington to the pine. Chad can fill his gatorade with vodka and fruit slices this week. He won't see the field.
6. Drew Brees finally woke up from whatever Hurricane induced hangover he was working.
7. I want to hear what Boe-Boe shot this weekend...anything? A Beer? A Bolf? A Boyote?
8. Jacoby Ellsbury is better than you...at everything. he also has a World Sewries Ring.
9. A-Rod is a douche and I hope he goes to the Angels.
10. I think the Giants hav ethe easiest scheudle in the league: DAL, GB, WAS, PHI, NYJ, ATL, SF, MIA, DAL, DET, MIN, CHI, PHI, WAS, BUF, NE. So through the entire season they have to face 3 playoff teams. Unreal.
11. Favre just keeps winning. They even got something out of the running game this week.
12. Lenny Management: When angry about the Raiders, buy Lenny a shot. If head is on bar at time of purchase, lift head, administer shot manually. Angry Silent Lenny should return to Angry Vocal Lenny in about 30 seconds. Much better for moral.
13. I need advice on the best protection for our pad this Halloween. I'm thinking of just getting a bucket of rocks to keep by the front door to throw at the kids. I guess I could get a paint ball gun too. I welcome any and all ideas!

Until next week!
