It's been a dismal start for the Indianapolis Colts, now 0-5. Could one player, the injured Peyton Manning, really make that much of a difference?
Apparently it does. The explanation right now is that Kerry Collins has not had enough time to learn the complicated Colt offense. The offensive line also seems to have forgotten the complicated offense. Collective dementia has been suggested. For the fans, collective depression is definitely settling in. A lot of Prozac scripts are being written in Indy town.
As for Peyton, it's tough on the sidelines, especially when your team was 11-5 with you and now 0-5 without you. We feel your pain, Peyton....not!
We are doing the Ranier-Sasquatch dance on the Velveeta-smeared carpet here in the basement because we are celebrating the arrival of the Dolts to the Doormat Division. They have rocketed to the bottom. Honk me a quart of Bohemian, guys!
And now it is time for the Oracle from the Basement to make this week's NFL predictions. It's a tough week for the Doormat Division as there is only one head-to-head matchup of Doormats. Everyone else has to play a real team. There will be blood on the field.

Gentlemen, make your predictions and I will see you in the basement!
If the Fleagles..(I'm starting to like Feebles) can't beat Washington, they are so dead. Michael Vick one man wrecking machine.
ReplyDeleteI vote for Feebles. It has a nice ring to it. Man, what is their problem?
ReplyDeleteNY Zeps works for me.
And did I hear someone on ESPN say last night that the Bungles have the best defense in the NFL? WTF? They better start giving up some points!

I watched the 0-for-niners vs. Bungles, and the Niners didn't get across mid-field until the mid-way point of the 3rd quarter. I thought it was just the quagmire of Bunglonia, but NO. They are playing tough D.
ReplyDeleteIt's Doormat Bye Week, with Arizona, Denver, Kansas City and Seattle all taking a crucial breather before one of them goes on a 10 game losing streak. They usually start here, with whatever team got off to a mirage of a start dropping the pretense and going on a major slide.

You think Yikes win again? If they do, Care Bears are a bonafide mirage.
ReplyDeletefor some reason that has no explanation, I actually thought Miami was going to beat the Jets. I also thought the Yikes were going to win (going against my own assessment of the team). man, I need to lay off the twinkies. You gotta believe in your team.
