Anyway,
MIN/Over – Wade alone.
MIN/Under – Wade and Brian C.
NWO/Over – Wade and Jamie
NWO/Under – Rita and Scott
Gee d’ya think Wade has a shot??
Wade with a 14.
New sheets and standings now on the site:
http://www.bgdserv.com/dizzy
Last weeks standings have not been updated….
Yeah, I don’t know what’s going on there.
Trying now for the 3rd time…
Ok, standings are updated now, don’t know what happened, had to rename the file…
Ok, also my M&M ticket waas not on the list posted at the bar? was it lost?
I put it in the M+P row.
I can create it’s own line if you like, but why bother?
Because we together are M&M….
I will be dropping 4 sheets of and Team M&M chose a more scientific approach to picking there teams this week. The good old Canadian Quarter.
Looks like the Good old Canadian Quarter works.
NY/Over – Duffman, JimmyJames,GordWilson,ScottMurie =12
NY/Under – Same 4 + MarkKeating, TimWatts,TerryLynn,BrianC =11
CLE/Over – Duffman, JimmyJames,GordWilson,ScottMurie,Damon =11
CLE/Under – M&M = 11
Tough luck JJ, only one chance to win it outright and you still have to split
Looks like the Mighty Giants strolled through an alley behind the R&R Hall of Fame and got mauled by a pack of dogs…
CLE/Over:
Duffman, JimmyJames,GordWilson,ScottMurie,DamonTopolie win this week with 11.
I will be at the diz after work to collect my loot. I will also collect Damon’s as he works with me. He may wish for Duff to keep it to pay for the next few weeks.
How much was in the pot this week?
It figures the one week I win there is no one here to give me my loot…do I get interest…
This week M & M stuck with the Quarers, heads were favorite and over and Tim and James went with the Chris M method of picking, we quickly glanced at the sheet and circled the first team that popped in our heads…and of course Mr. Damon T or better know as I don’t know much about football studied the numbers diligently and chose a scientific approach known only to him and Scot M.
And Tim wins it with a 12…
James: “Tim what was the reason for you good fortune this week”
Tim: ” Well I thought I would Pick like Skirt, I closed my eyes and cicled the first team I saw”
Who won week 8?
Well M&M made there picks again…this time we took the teams with the most vowels…flipped a nickle for the over/under

Arsene’s Special Spa, and The Exorcist
Scott Murray and Barry Glendenning
Tuesday November 4, 2008

WENGER’S UNHAPPY FINISH IN SPECIAL SPA
The Fiver was reasonably surprised when, after Aaron Lennon scored Tottenham’s fourth goal in that ridiculous shambles of a match at the Emirates last Wednesday, the normally emotional Arsene Wenger didn’t run out of the stadium in tears, zigzagging down the Holloway Road windmilling his fists at innocent passers-by and putting the occasional shop window through. “I am a bit angry,” he instead simply sniffed, before walking off very slowly to a quiet dark room, closing the door gently, curling up into a ball and rocking back and forth, back and forth, back and forth, back and forth. Mmmm, Arsene always feels relaxed in Arsene’s Special Spa. Arsene loves it in Arsene’s SpecAAARRRRGGGGHHial SpCLICHYYOUINEPTBASTaggghhhhh.
Article continues
————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————
Then a similar thing happened at the weekend, when Arsenal decided not to bother with the championship any more midway through a game at Stoke, and to add injury to injury, Theo Walcott and Emmanuel Adebayor both picked up body knack. Wenger kept almost totally quiet about this all the way back to London, emitting only a constant hiss which made him sound like he was having a bit of trouble packing away a rubber dinghy after a fun day at the beach.
But a proper public meltdown was only a matter of time away, and sure enough the volcano erupted in a press conference ahead of Big Cup Group Stage Matchday Four Fenerbahce Game Two, as he accused Rory Delap FC’s Rory Delap and Ryan Shawcross of deliberately injuring his players.
“Do you think Delap tried to play the ball when he tackled Walcott?” he bubbled. “Or that Shawcross tried to play the ball when he tackled Adebayor off the pitch? All the players have been injured deliberately.” Arsene then went on to list all the other players he believes have been deliberately laid low by anti-aesthetes – Diaby, Rosicky, Eduardo, Sagna – before Pat Rice led him away to his Special Spa and advised him to stop thinking and do some rocking.
Join Barry Glendenning for the Big Cup jamboree that is Liverpool 2-1 Atletico Madrid (with a late goal from $tevie Mbe) at 7.15pm, when Rob Smyth will be cracking his knuckles ahead of Chelsea’s 1-0 win at Roma.

QUOTE OF THE DAY
“I am a Neapolitan and, as I have said several times, I’d like to return one day to Naples and finish my career there. But I still want to play at a high level” – Real Madrid’s Italian defender Fabio Cannavaro, 94, insists that he would like one last shot at the big time before ending his career in the pub league that is Serie A.

THIS WILL READ BETTER IF YOU HAVE THIS PLAYING IN THE BACKGROUND; BUT NOT MUCH BETTER
Something beyond comprehension is happening to a football team. In Italy’s Serie B. A man has been called for as a last resort to try and save them. That man is The Exorcist. That football team is Modena, currently propping up the Italian second division with seven points from 12 games. Although you could be forgiven for assuming their poor results have everything to do with hapless on-field buffoonery and plain old bad luck, somewhere between statistics and superstition, there is another world. The world of darkness.
All of which pitch-black spookiness goes some way towards explaining why Modena have brought in a man of the cloth to kick-start their season by performing an exorcism in the home dressing-room. “I have always been a fan and I wanted to do something to help the team,” declared Benedictine monk Gregario Colosio, prompting the world’s laziest tea-time email to conjure up predictable images of the senior squad swivelling their heads in gratitude while violently pleasuring themselves with crucifixes.
Of course the fact that Modena have invited an exorcist to ease their relegation worries doesn’t actually mean their players or Alberto Braglia stadium is possessed by demons. If Father Gregario can find no trace of any, it is the club’s manager, one-time Parma legend Daniele Zoratto, who will be cast out.

THE RUMOUR MILL
Newcastle have offered the remains of Michael Owen, who died in 2004, to Tottenham.
Manchester City are planning to fling preposterous amounts of money at Sergio Aguero, despite the striker once again reiterating that he’s going to stay with Atletico Madrid. Are City’s actions even more desperate than Newcastle’s attempt to offload Owen? No.
And Ricardo Vaz Te wants to leave Bolton for Cardiff in order to get a game of professional football. Are Vaz Te’s actions even more desperate than Newcastle’s attempt to offload Owen? No.
oops
get it together jerky!
The sheets are not available on line yet…call the Duff..
So what happened with week 9 ???
Ok folks, the pool is back in order, my new hire finally started and work should cut down to a mere 50 hours a week. Damon Topolie and I have the best shots at an all out win, but a potential 4-way split if it goes ARZ/Over. The chart doesn’t display well on the blog, so you can see it on the site:
http://www.bgdserv.com/dizzy
Looks like the 4 way split won out.
Winners are Gord Wilson, Tariq Rafi, Lee Englemann and yours truly.
Gee, another 15 splits and I may have my year paid for…
Scratch that last announcement.
Damon won with SF/Over. I didn’t notice the spread was 9.5…
Where are this weeks sheets and standings…
Small week 11, only $112.50 in the pot.
That’s ok, gimme CLE, Under or both, I’ll take the cash…
Here are the potentials:
BUF/Under, CLE/Over – Duffman with 14
CLE/Under – Duffman with 15
BUF/Over – Duffman, Scott, JJ and Jamie with 13
Either way, I cash. GO BROWNS.
Yay! I finally win a week..
More importantly, my Browns didn’t blow another lead.
