I think Favre can still throw the deep ball.

Another happy week
So I blew chunks again on the over/unders (down to 10-5-1 overall there); 9-4 against the spread made up for it. Let’s review the Man-crushing week that was:
Green Bay 19 (+3) @ Denver 13 – I knew Elway. Elway was an enemy of mine. Mr. Cutler, you are no Elway.
Detroit 16 @ Chicago 7 (-6) – I should’ve stuck with my initial thoughts.
Philadelphia 23 @ Minnesota 16 (+1.5) – Unhealthiest profession this year; Viqueens’ QB.
Cleveland 27 (-3) @ St. Louis 20 – It’s a dirty rotten shame that Duh Lambs and Duh Deadfins don’t meet </sarcasm>
Indianapolis 31 (-7) @ Carolina 7 – That’s how you go undefeated the “nice” way.
NY Giants 13 (-10-LOSS) "@" Miami 10 – The boo-birds made both the G-men and the Dolphins feel right at home.
Oakland 9 @ Tennessee 13 (-7-LOSS) – Too bad the Tennesseans are also a 1-AA school.
Pittsburgh 24 (-4) @ Cincinnati 13 – The trend is your friend.
Buffalo 13 (+3) @ NY Jets 3 – Come on, say it with me. J-E-T-S S*CK! SU*K! SUC*!
Houston 10 @ San Diego 35 (-9) – Vincent K. McMahon couldn’t script it better.
Jacksonville 24 (+4) @ Tampa Bay 23 – Not only did Garcia get picked (thrice), but the first pick was the margin.
New Orleans 31 (-3) @ San Francisco 10 – Algore must be playing for the Fourtiners.
Washington 7 @ New England 52 (-17) – Guess Belichick had the over.
I’m still 6 games under .500 and further out from break-even, but after the month from Hell, 51-57-8 is an accomplishment.

México Del Norte moment of the day
Lao, the American Expat in SE Asia, recently tried to open up a bank account back in his hometown in Texas. First Bank and Trust East Texas wouldn’t take his United States passport, Social Security card or his birth certificate, so he couldn’t open up an account. The not-funny thing is, if he would have had the easy-to-forge Mexican matricula consular card, he could have opened up an account with them without any problems.
That is seriously, SERIOUSLY fucked up.

I don’t have a dog in this fight, as the blogroll is full of people on all 4 teams, but I’d be remiss if I didn’t get some money in to this 4-way battle royale between the Army, Navy, Air Force and Marines. Soldiers’ Angels Project Valour-IT, which helps provide voice-controlled and adaptive laptop computers to wounded Soldiers, Sailors, Airmen and Marines recovering from hand wounds and other severe injuries at major military medical centers, is holding their annual fundraising competition, with many bloggers choosing between the 4 branches. This goes until Veterans’ Day, and your donations, regardless of which team you support, are tax-deductible as Soldiers’ Angels is a qualifying non-profit organization.
Since, unlike Blackfive, CDR Salamander, Michelle and Mary Katharine, I can’t choose just one, I’ll instead give you all 4 options. Choose one, choose some, choose all, but choose.
Revisions/extensions (10:40 am 10/30/2007) – Due to technical issues with ChipIt, the widgets have been replaced here, and will be very shortly on the sidebar.
