2013/2014 NFL Thread: Where Hawks Fly - Part 8

[NickNitro]

Does SHH have an official Fantasy league every year? I'd like to be apart of it.

 

[Poetic Chaos]

Just looking at the opponent list, I can see 13-3 or 14-2 for the Niners this year. Obviously you don't always beat the teams you're "supposed" to but the Bronco's and 'hawks away games are the only clearly tough games. Maybe the Saint's in NO.

sidenote: sick of playing the Saint's every year.

Schedules are starting to leak out (as they usually do on this day). I just read the Giants schedule. They have a brutal stretch in November coming out of their bye week. It could be a really tough schedule depending on how teams like Houston and Atlanta rebound.

Atlanta has some teams on their schedule.

Steelers schedule worries me. It is a pretty soft first half of the season, but the second half is kind of brutal. Steelers always come out of the gate slow. If they do that this year and drop three or four of those first six games, they won't be able to bounce back this year.

Give us some Mike Tomlin "Deer in the headlights" comments, Matty.

 

[Warhammer]

I can see PIT going 12-4 or 11-5 this season. With that said, they were "supposed" to go 12-4 the past two seasons as well.

*sigh*



And I'm stoked that we're getting a BAL/PIT so soon as well as getting 5 prime time PIT games. Woot, woot.

 

[Hush]

Rams got another Monday night game here, that's awesome.

 

[Mr. Dent]

Cool, three of our first four games are on the road against playoff teams.

There is, though there is typically a waiting list to get in. Keep an eye out for the thread and show your interest. If there are holes (as there typically are) they might let you in.

Yahoo has them ranked as the team with the easiest path to the playoffs (or maybe that was of all last year non-playoff teams). Still, I"m rooting for them to go 0-16 myself

Packers@Seahawks kicks off the season. Go Packers!

We've been doing the league for 11 seasons already, and it's tough to get in... but post in the start up thread (it usually gets posted by me around July) because you never know if a franchise wants to bail...

So Russel Wilson is getting a divorce.

He's going to miss seeing this O-face.

D-i-v-o-r-c-e, tell you what it means to me.

GAWD, that lady seems nuts. I feel sorry for the small puppy she's holding.

 

[Rowsdower!]

Yeah, that little dog looks terrified.

Cool thanks

If I was being paid next to nothing, they shouldn't be able to tell me how to wash my vagina.

There are a few things you need to know if you want to be a successful Buffalo Bills cheerleader. "When menstruating, use a product that [sic] right for your menstrual flow," reads the "General hygiene & lady body maintenance" section of the handbook given to cheerleaders, known as the Jills. "A tampon too big can irritate and develop fungus. A product left in too long can cause bacteria or fungus build up. Products can be changed at least every 4 hours. Except when sleeping, they can be left in for the night."

This is what it means to be a Jill. A Jill is told what tampons she should wear and how she should keep certain "intimate areas" fresh, and in general has to submit to a series of byzantine and comically infantilizing requirements and guidelines governing everything from "appearance etiquette" to "etiquette for FORMAL dining" to "communicating with people with disabilities." A Jill is paid next to nothing—no money for gameday cheering, none for practice, none for the bulk of her minimum 20 personal appearances, none from the tips she receives but must turn in during the mandatory Jills Golf Tournament—and is classified by the team as a volunteer/independent contractor, though the thickness and thoroughness of the handbook makes you wonder just how independent she is.

A grown ass woman who doesn't know how to clean herself is a serious problem, much less being told to by someone else.

They've had a soft schedule for the past three years. They'll beat a playoff contender but lose to the freaking Titans the next week.

 

[Immortalfire]

Buffalo will have no cheerleaders this season http://www.people.com/people/mobile/article/0,,20810791,00.html

Weird.

 

[Rowsdower!]

Buffalo probably won't have a team after this season.

 

[Donut]

Switch Buffalo with the Raiders so that The Fins can beat them twice a year

Man, if I had a dollar every time I saw that sentence on the Hype ...
