Only reason I knew that.
That was the difference maker too! Good game, buddy.
I can't believe I didn't join in the Swampcrashes previously. I don't know why, but I think that I thought they were related to sports gambling or something so I never even opened the threads. Super fun creation, which is right in my wheelhouse (I gotta head full of useless trivia).

I think that describes just about all of us, to some degree or another.

Got a lot of sleep this week.

As a Bills fan, there was a lot of happiness with the Colts draft in 1992 (they were in the same division)

Just looked up the 1992 draft - one of the worst in memory. 1 and 2 were Emtman and Coryatt

Top 4 QBs were David Klingler, Tommy Maddox, Matt Blundin and Tony Sacca

Top 4 RBs - "Touchdown" Tommy Vardell, Tony Smith, Vaughn Dunbar and Amp Lee.

Not a single hall of famer from the entire draft class. Kind of like the year that the Raptors had the #1 overall pick and they drafted Andreas Bargnini

Matt Blundin! He played both football and basketball at Virginia. He's now the AD at my high school.

This is my Hail Mary of the week and probably season so far. We should stop with geography questions.

I would be fine beating AI or losing to AI, but matching up on half the answers or more would be devastating.

Good game my man. What I hate about this game is that your first reaction is what everyone else thinks, but we all think that everyone else will go to the second choice and we'll get the low score. 'Cause Dan Fouts is instant #1, but there's been some prolific shit on the west coast.
Did you see that ludicrous display last night?

Not sure it could be a TV show, but if coordinated right it could be a pretty good web-series (well the live version.)
