    I was not surprised, TBH.
    I researched this series going back 4 years, MN played well in Detroit
    in two games, and crappy in two games. I guessed wrong.

    The REALLY interesting games are the ones tonight and Monday night:
    Which teams will show up, KC? Buffalo?

    You guys have no idea, or maybe you probably really do, what I go through with repairs/upgrades in our 1932 built house. Nothing is easy or inexpensive.

    For example, when we replaced our furnace in 2009, the company gave me a fixed price based on a job that would take two men 4 hours. It took two men 17 hours! It's hard to explain to you why, but the old furnace had to be cut up with a sawzall, and the new furnace had to be disassembled in our the driveway and reassembled in its permanent spot.

    I could go on, but then you all own Ferraris so you understand! :D:D:D

    That score may have surprised me the most thus far today. Bolts came out of the blocks hot and never looked back...T

    I hear that! A beauty of Ferrari ownership is that everything else seems like a bargain in comparison.

    Our house was supposedly built in 1914, but likely older. We think we're the sixth owners. Happily, the second owners renovated it for indoor plumbing in the 1920s!

    Two guys did my new furnace in 2013, mainly because the guy doing most of the work was not licensed,
    but his 'helper' was. His helper taught HVAC at an area CC and was not far away from retirement.
    They took out the old one easily, but the new one had to be installed in pieces, with some new
    sheet metal duct work being done as well. My house was built in 1980.
    Two guys, eight hours X2, 135,000BTU unit, plus a new A/C outdoor unit, $4,200. Yes, $4,200.

    I own a Honda. I ALMOST pulled the trigger in 2009 on a T/R, but the SAME week I was
    going to do that the stock market crashed. I documented this on here back in 2009.
    And now, today, I am too close to retirement myself to splurge...

    Nicholas sent me his Thanksgiving week 12 picks from another forum
    It checks out
    What do you guys want to do about Dallas this week
    Everyone picked Dallas
    Nicholas says that was his pick
    I am neutral because we are so close to date
    Vote or forever hold your peace
    I won’t vote and Nicholas shouldn’t either
    If you vote yes then l assume if one of us doesn’t make a pick it would still count if everyone chose the same team
