Week 12 NFL Bonus Results
Question: I gave the scheduling geniuses over at the NFL headquarters a hard time for the Ravens/Browns matchup last week, but (while I'm more interested in this week's game) is there anything different about Titans/Texans?
For the record, all of you missed (or failed to mention) that each of these games featured a relocated team playing the new franchise that took their place in the city they left. That being said, a few of you gave answers that warranted 4 or 5 points. (11/30/09 edit - I missed Rich's answer, and the funny thing is, he hit the nail right on the head. Well done. +5)
Initials | Points | Your Team Name | Answers |
KW | 3 | Dallas D-Bags | Absolutely. IMO, Houston is still a little pissed about losing the Oilers. And now if the Texas Houstons can woop up on those Tennessee Oilers in H-Town it would be a most glorious event. Besides, I hate Vince Young. GO HOUSTONS!! |
CJ | 3 | Beelzebubbles | I watched the Ravens/Browns game...I wont be watching this one |
DB | 0 | Fightin Farmers | [no answer] |
Jho | 3 | Demons | Vince Young starts beats the crap out of the Texans!!!! |
Jha | 2 | I Will Beat Bob and Gary | More losers playing on Monday night instead of Saturday. |
BD | 3 | Bobs Bobcats | Yes, Bud Adams is $250,000 lighter this week. He should have used that to buy some new clothes. |
CC | 3 | Novacain | Chris Johnson has entered "watch this guy, he can go off at any time" mode. Vince Young has gotten a new lease on his career and has led the Titans to 3 straight victories. There's nothing notable about the Texans, but those two points alone elevate this game above last week's. |
GF | 2 | Six Six in Shoes | At least Tennessee isn't in the celler |
RH | 3 | Los Tigeres | None whatsoever! Only makes a difference to me, because I kinda like both teams. |
DW | 5 | Bevo XIV | Seriously, is MNF still on? Next thing you're going to tell me is that Jimmy the Greek (RIP) and Phyllis George (former Miss Texas/America) still appear on the "NFL Today"? I thought that show got canceled when Cop Rock was still on TV? I mean I tune into ABC every Monday and it's nothing but crap. |
AN | 4 | The MotherLoad | HELLO....What's different????!!! My Man-Love for Vince Young. SAAAAWWEEEETTTTTTT!!!! Playing the Texans guarenteeesssss I get to see it on TV no matter what night of the week it is. Besides I think there is some sort of rivalry thingy, but I digress. VINCE YOUNG 4-ever! Man-Love...what what...Man-Love...what what! Can't wait! |
JN | 3 | Naked Bootleggers | You can watch Vince Young. |
GN | 3 | Ferments-A-Lot | I apologize for hating last week's game while simultaneously looking forward to this week's game. I see the err in my ways now, and this bonus question is my admission of guilt. |
A-C | 4 | Amy/Carrie's Team | The Browns/Ravens didn't have the totally over-played "you're an idiot if you don't know who's better yet" Mario Williams vs. Vince Young debate. |
KS | 4 | DonkeyStyle | Yes, this time the underdog has a chance and is a real NFL team. Cleveland belongs in the CFL. |
KZ | 3 | Suck It #15 | yes, old h-town vs. new h-town plus vince young. |
CG | 3 | 12 Nat'l Championships | Vinny will punk Houston for his 4th in a row. |
KH | 5 | Mr. Smokey Pants | Not if you go by the number of letters in each team's name. |
RK | 5 | BlitzKrieg | Both the Titans and Texans were assumed to be playoff contenders entering the season. That is as much as can be asked for in week 11 without a flex schedule. No one, including the whole dog pound AND Grandma Mangini, thought Cleveland was a contender for a playoff berth this year. The 'new Browns vs. old Browns' story is stale and should not cause one of their two matchups every year to automatically qualify as a national audience game. Now that I think a little more on it, tonight is the 'new Oilers vs. old Oilers'. Must be part of the 50th anniversary of the AFL celebration the NFL has been pushing all year. |
JC | 3 | Justin's Team | Lots of story lines... |
