I must admit. I did watch the Colts and Bills game. It was good to watch a game Being played in the natural elements. Like before the move to warmer climates, and domed stadiums. (Indoor stadiums; BAH HUMBUG!)
I do think the Colts got ripped off. As mo st of the people I heard talking about the game. The Colts successfuly scored as conversion play. THEN! About 2-3 minutes (at least); in reL time passed THEN a flag was thrown nullifying the winning score. I truly believe there should be a time limit forf throwing a flag. This one was ridiculous. Â
The thought of these people I listened to is; Colts had nothing to gain with a win. The Bill’s, a possible play off spot. So the officials decided to throw the L A T E  flag in order to give the Bills a second chance.  I think they have a point.
What do you think. Should there be a time limit for a flag to be thrown.Â
Looking to the suspensions of former players for “SEXUAL HARASSMENT” . My,Oh My. What a travesty. I find it absolutely appalling that a WOMAN, is able to make ACCUSATIONS of Sexual Harassment, without offering any proof. People accept these accusations, (which can destroy a persons life), as fact. Remember in the USA a person is ” INNOCENT UNTIL PROVEN GUILTY”. Â
However, that does not seem to be the case here. Public figures, as well as anyone else, can be the object of this CHARACTER ASSANIATION.  A woman can do this, however if a MAN were to say similar things about a woman he would be totally ignored. Â
I am merely asking that a woman OR a man, be prepared to prove the things they say. A majority of these ACCUSERS have no proof. It is merely a case of SHE said, HE said. I find it difficult to believe, any one sexually harassing some one would do it in PUBLIC.  Therefore a “SHE said, He said. I am certain some of these may occur in a a public setting. Did anyone actually see it? Will they be able to support the accusations. So many of these accusations, took place long ago.
I have also noticed many of these women have accepted some kind of “SETTLEMENT”. Then when they think they can get another 15 minutes of fame. BRING it up again, in public media. Â
I am not saying these things did not happen. Only that ACCUSERS powered by the media are ruining people’s lives just by intimiting these improprieties.Â
Because of you lemmings out there choose to believe anything the MEDIA puts out there. SHAME on you. For letting the media CONTROL YOU.
This is merely my opinion. and I can live with it. If you can live with yourselves for being a lamb led to slaughter without questioning it…….
For those of you who do not know how confidence ranking works, let me explain.
If we were playing an office pool,(which we ARE NOT). The object is to score the most points. To obtain the score YOU rank the teams by how confident you are a team will win its game. EXAMPLE: Say this week we have 16 games. The team you are most confident will win you would assign the number 16 and follow down to the team you are least confident in and assign that number 1.  We use the Monday night game(last game) as a TIE BREAKER. The tie is broken by the closest to the total (that is the COMBINED score of the two participating teams) final score, without going over.
If we were playing this is how my sheet would look; My pick will be in bold Capital letters. you can use circling, underlining, or highlighting. I will show my correct points in Bold
YOU can adopt the scoring described above. Or, the optional method. A negative score for missed games. We will continue to get a positive score for correct predictions. EXAMPLE:  if you scored 1 pt on the first game and you had 15 pts on the second game and lost you would still have a Positive 1.  HOWEVER. with the same scenario new scoring system would result with a -14 score.
I will fill in my picks Thursday. Until then feel free to:
Just copy and paste for your own Fun Pool Use. Or to see if you can beat me.
IF YOU SEE I MADE A MIS-COPY OF THE GAMES AND TIMES FEELÂ FREE TO EMAIL ME AND TELL ME I GOOFED.
GOOD LUCK TO ALL.Â
