In order for the Raiders to make the Playoffs, they would need to win and have the following teams win:

- Ravens

- Texans

- Colts

- Bears or Lions or Chargers or Patriots

111. Halsey - “Graveyard:” TBH, I liked "Clementine" much better than "Graveyard" - the lyrics to that were more memorable and poetic (ex: "the blush on your cheeks means that you bleed like me; the 808 beat brings your heart to your feet") and I liked the music-box like instrumentals behind that son. Hell, I even liked "Nightmare" much better than "Graveyard".

At the end of the day, it's not that I don't like "Graveyard"; I'm feeling some of her other 2019 releases more than this one...

The music video on the other hand, was something else. That, and the fact that Halsey invited Sydney Sweeney - who I discovered during Tribeca and am currently developing a celeb crush on - to be in her video... *swoon*

Hopefully this wasn't the only Halsey song on your list... :shifty: :whistling:

Vic's Picks:

Niners over Rams

Dolphins over Bengals

Seahawks over Cardinals

Upset Special:

Giants over Redskins

Last Week: 4-0, correct Upset Pick

Overall: 40-23 (7-8)

That's a reach imo...Bumgarner's best years are behind him. Still not not terribly expensive tho.

And it's not like they're gonna get into the Postseason (where he can work his magic) anyways... :shifty:

Vic's Picks:

Giants over Dolphins

Patriots over Bengals

Saints over Colts

Upset Special:

Cardinals over Browns

Last Week: 3-1, correct Upset Pick

Overall: 36-23 (6-8)

Honestly, Rob Manfred. Once again, he's trying to ruin Baseball (even more)…

I hope the fans who wished Bud Selig away got what they asked for...

Mets signed Michael Wacha

He's good... But he's not an "Ace"...

As far as I'm concerned, we have four Aces and a gap in the rotation every fifth day...

The Saints have scored forty-six points.

Exactly ZERO of them were from Alvin Kamara.

Well before the Internet (and social media), and back when MNF was the one thing many Americans watcehd on a Monday night - this was how people found out about Lennon's passing.

RIP John Lennon :'(

Good speed, good arm, and a guy who can lighten up the clubhouse as well...

There are murmurings that the Wilpons are planning to sell the team.

I'll believe it when I see it. /discussion

Thanks for the new link, Kert!

So, I've been away for the past couple of weeks and apparently IDF is getting re-booted?

Also, I can't even begin to fathom how much history would be lost if all the old posts indeed, were gone forever... :'( That was my adolescence and even a good chunk of my young adult years. Before the popularity of Twitter and Instagram, this was where us regulars all hung out. In it's heyday, the [original] Baseball Thread was one of the most active threads - heck, it even had more posts than some of the most active threads from AI's recent seasons. :whistling: For the original thread to be gone would be devastating. >.<

BYE, SEAN!

Hey, Kel? Do you wanna go to the Semifinals? :w00t:

11 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1

A 40! Now, THAT'S what I'm talking about! :w00t:

If this isn't a 40 dance…
