Hmmm... what could Coach Sherman's strategy be?

Perhaps he plans to lull the Rams AND the Eagles into a false sense of security... Yes, that MUST be it!

<hallucination>In a surprise move, the Packers will burst onto the field at halftime on Sunday and crush the combined might of Philadelphia & St. Louis as the Packers take the NFC title in one of the most unusual playoff games in history!</hallucination>

Oh well. At least we still get to watch Brett Favre and Bubba Franks in the Pro Bowl. And you, my friend, have earned yourself a delicious crabcake dinner. I shall, of course, settle up with you at your convenience. (After all, a gambling debt is a debt of honor.)

I'd considered sending you this as a Private Message, but I thought you'd get more mileage out of a public groveling.

Congratulations.

Yep...you're delusional. :)

I'll shoot you an e-mail or PM the next time I'm in Baltimore, which should be in the early spring.

Nah. And I hope you didn't take my PM in offense. A gentle ribbing...nothing more.

Favre simply had a very bad day. I think the better team won, but it should have been a hell of a lot closer. That game should not take away from the fact that he is a great QB, a lock for the Hall of Fame, and that he can handle pressure situations. He has already proven himself on many previous occasions.

As consolation, have a chuckle with this garbage printed in Monday's Philadelphia Daily News. (Granted, nobody should really read the Daily News, but I get humor out of it sometimes...plus it's tabloid-style, so it's easier to read on the El.)
