Rockybowlers,
First I hope everyone has had a safe christmas. Now on to more important issues. Losers
Every year I hear at this stage of the Rockybowl, "I have lost", "No Way am I in it now" and the lack of optimism is unending. But watch and see how quickly things turn around. We have 28 more games with only 6 in the books. Yes, those six nearly drew the life blood out of some of you but you need to stand up and shout out the window "I am mad as HELLL and I am not going to lose anymore".
Even with my FANTASTIC win with Wyoming, and then the even GREATER win with Nevada I have not locked up the Rockybowl yet. What scares the hell out of me however is my beloved financial adviser is playing this year he is 0-6 at this point, that is scarry.
Almost 10% (7) of the players at this point have not gotten their first taste of victory but once they taste that pleasure there maybe no stopping them. Now 30% only has their one victory thus far to DO NOT JUMP SHIP. There are wins in your future.
Now with this one day away from the games I hope we all recoup and get ready for the push to the Bobby Breeze award, which will be awarded after the Rockybowl party on December 30th to the leader at that time.
Rocky

You are delusional. Nevada LOST.
ReplyDeleteOOPS, your right I was delusional when I posted the blog but not with my pick of 31 for SMU not Nevada. God I am gooooooooood.
ReplyDeleteAnd just exactly when are all these LOSERS supposed to begin winning their first games???
ReplyDeleteDid you say Ohio??? I think NOT.
so now you tell me; i thought the object of this game was to pick the LOSERS in which case i would be damn near at the top of the list.
ReplyDeletei won't give up; my glass is half full (which means time for a refill!!)
Happy Day after Christmas to all.
Vicki 'the loser' of the Schlicker duo.
Rocky,
ReplyDeleteI sumbled upon this website and think you're a man that I can work with... you give hope and inspiration... you can see opportunites that others clearly cannot... And you feel the need to support a Worthless Batch of Losers in their completely Pathetic Post-Season Picks... We I a man of faith I'd build you a church... but I'm a man of reason, a man of hi-finance... and I'd like to offer you, son, My Dear Rocky, a change to manage the Empire that I Leave Behind. You can give Hope to People and you have no idea how much that's worth. Please contact me at my new residence in North Carolina... Bernie Madoff, esq.
It's a common fault of human behavior: The Desire to Be Noticed by the Hot Chicks. This plays out is a curious fashion during the Rocky Bowl. It happens every year, like the swans returning to Capistrano, when those wretched souls, those kids always overlooked when sides are picked for kickball, they try to make-up for all those years of humiliation. The clinical name is "Front Loading" - and I don't mean sticking a sock in one's shorts - but the loading up of the first 15 games with the highest numbers (34, 33, 32, 31, 30, ...) all so that their lame-brain-game picks might get them the Bobby Breeze award. And with that award, that golden hand-polished Viagra, these sad sacks believe - hope against hope - that 2009 will be their year... the year they get "noticed".
ReplyDeleteWell Boys Wonder - guess again. Reality slapped you in your face and shoved ice-cold Gatorade down your pants. You won't win the Breeze award - in fact with your Front Loading you've almost certainly guaranteed your "race to the bottom" of the Rocky Toilet Bowl... but alas, even in your own self despair there can be but ONE BIGGEST LOSER... so most of you won't even get that right. But console yourselves... you are all "the Biggest Loser". Next time roll-the-dice... you'd probably get at least 50-50...
FRONTLOADERS NAMED!!!

ROCKY GREAT PICK ON WYOMING! That (1) point weighted win. Great Pick! Rated at the absolute bottom of the points of all your picks. That one game you were soul searching - and it came through. You truly are a man of action.

Rocky that last comment doesn't sound like the Laura I know. How many wives do you have?
ReplyDeleteWell, Fresno State smacked me in the face and while I was down, the Pac-10 attached a lead balloon to my a@@. Not to worry, I have a "contrarian investor" approach that will pay dividends in the coming days.
ReplyDeleteSwans returning to the Mission San Juan Capistrano? Don't you mean Swallows?
ReplyDeleteThose Bowlers who load up with high value picks at the beginning of the Bowl series do so at their own peril -- earlier games are notoriously unpredictable.
