Off Topic 2012

Re: Off Topic 2012

Overall, from when I became a fan of them, I'd put my teams about average.

Colts - Won a Super Bowl and went to another while being in the Playoffs every year until last year.

Pacers - A perennial Playoff team when Reggie Miller was there, had a few down years after he retired, but Larry Bird has done a nice job rebuilding and we've had our best year this year since probably 2005.

ND football sucks.

ND basketball has been decent, but never a team that has me overly excited.

IU football isn't worth mentioning.

IU basketball seems to finally be "back" after the Kelvin Sampson scandal. The last 3 years was easily the most dismal stretch I've ever experienced with any of my teams. It was nice finally being a respectable team again. A little bitter we didn't beat UK again last night.

The Pats - Three Super Bowls and five total SB appearances in the last 11 years. One of the best run teams in sports today.

Bruins - Won the Stanley Cup last season. Been big disappointments before that in my lifetime. Used to be awesome before I was born.

Celtics - Were rather miserable while I was growing up watching, but had a few good seasons and then a few real bad ones for them. Then the Big Three and Rondo happened an yeah.

Red Sox - Worst collapse last year but two WS wins in the last decAde and are perennial contenders.

**** this city sucks.

But who do you root for in Nascar?

But who do you root for in Nascar?

Whomever is turning left the fastest at the time.

Re: Off Topic 2012

I couldn't count NASCAR, but that's no better for me because Jeff Gordon hasn't won a championship in 11 years thanks to the moronic Chase or whatever it is.

WTF, man. Every team you like is known for winning including the Rainbow Warrior. Oh poor little Gordon, who only won 4 Winston Cup trophies.

Re: Off Topic 2012

My favorite NASCAR driver is the one that wins, because when someone wins it means the race is over.

I employ a similar rooting strategy for MMA.

The Browns and Orioles are known for everything but winning

I'm not even including the Sonics who A) were terrible the majority of their last 10 years and B) don't exist anymore.

Re: Off Topic 2012

Well originally it was just as of recent.

Over my lifetime, can't really complain

Re: Off Topic 2012

I'm still waiting on one of my teams to win a championship in my lifetime.

So there's that.

Are you 14? Michigan won in '97. Granted, you weren't a Michigan fan at the time, but it still merits partial credit.

Now that I think about it, I can't believe it's been 15 years

Re: Off Topic 2012

I drank more than I should have last night & thankfully I have absolutely nothing to do, today.... lazy day with some Mass Effect 3.


I was going to have to help my dad and brother in law build a roof over our back deck, but they postponed the project until next weekend.

Re: Off Topic 2012

Anybody here interested in a league for The Show? Need one guy to take control of the Phillies (0-0 record).

Would prefer a non-west coast person due to scheduling reasons.

PM me if interested!

Re: Off Topic 2012

Sorry to post this here, but just wanted to get some exposure.

We are doing an OS Supporters Fantasy Baseball league this year and we have 8 solid guys so far and need two more owners to fill the league.

Here are the stipulations:

League Type: ESPN Standard League - 5x5 Rotisserie

Entry Fee: $50 per owner - a total of a $500 prize pool

Draft: Snake Draft scheduled for Sunday April 1st at 4:00 pm Eastern

We will also be using LeagueSafe to deposit and withdraw the funds since there is no fee.

If anyone is interested in joining us, please post in the thread for the league and/or PM me. First come, first serve.

Re: Off Topic 2012

I'm considering getting MLB 2k12 instead of The Show this year. Am I crazy?
