angryGreatness 96 Posted January 13, 2013 Well....um....so. That was an interesting day of NFL. 'arry? That Broncos-Ravens game will probably end up being more entertaining than the Super Bowl, and the 49ers-Packers game was exciting as well. As a Seahawks fan, I anxiously await tomorrow.

angryGreatness 96 Posted January 14, 2013 Well....um....so. That was an interesting day of NFL. 'arry? That Broncos-Ravens game will probably end up being more entertaining than the Super Bowl, and the 49ers-Packers game was exciting as well. As a Seahawks fan, I anxiously await tomorrow. Well despite putting up the most entertaining game of the year, my team lost due to Pete Carroll's dumb as fuck attempt to Ice the Kicker. I will now root for the Ravens. Still, the Seahawks are the youngest team in the league and get better every game. Get ready for the Seattle Seahawks to dominate next year and for a while after that.

angryGreatness 96 Posted January 21, 2013 Watching the Ravens-Patriots game tonight (Eat shit, Tom Brady!) alerted me to the case of O.J. Brigance, former Ravens linebacker and current senior player development adviser, who has been battling ALS since 2007 and can now only communicate via computer. Absolutely no chance of getting a British obit, but a worthy addition to any American-based dead pool. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Banshees Scream 110 Posted February 3, 2013 Superbowl XLVII is tonight and I'm all for the Baltimore Ravens. The halftime show was torturous last year having watched "Madonna". I hope Beyonce will be better. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

themaninblack 2,112 Posted April 2, 2013 Unless Eurosport counts, yeah. It doesn't. Oh, will people STOP FUCKING DYING JUST FOR A COUPLE OF DAYS!! Thank you... Inconsiderate bastards You're telling me. I am getting a confirmed DDP hit every 37 hours. 37 hours! It's a full time job updating the bloody pages! Hmmm. I'm going to have a long ponder about ways if improving things a tad. Making stuff like adding candidates/teams to the database a bit easier. When Rude Kid fired up his access database for the first time 10 years ago, there were just 24 teams and 30 hits. We have twenty-four and a half times as many teams than in 2003. Double the amount of hits and it's only April 2nd. Going to have to come up with something that meets the demands of the modern deadpool... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

A small amount but one which could add up to a moderate recompense for your work. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rotten Ali 600 Posted April 2, 2013 Or just charge about £5 for a theme team entry. That's where there looks to be the most work involved. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
