Zombo Posted December 28, 2014 Report Share Posted December 28, 2014 The Great Zomboni is limping toward the finish line much like the banged up Brownies. Last Week's 1-2-1 (work with me, Tour, I saw a 4-point spread on the Browns game) brings me crawling to the end with a respectable 34-25-1 mark. But it could have been much better, much like the Browns season. For some reason, the Steelers are winning and the Browns are losing and my crystal ball keeps to clouding up. So I ordered a new crystal ball: Meet the The Crystalli 3000 So now I have two crystal balls. And then I hired a new "assistant" to read my balls: Meet Crystal. After a lengthy session of Crystal examining my balls this is what they ... produced: Cleveland at Baltimore 1 PM The Browns show up inspired and play tough defense. Connor Shaw plays respectable mistake-free football, but the overmatched Brownies find themselves down 16-10 with the ball on their own 1 yard line with 5 minutes and 2 seconds left. Boom, quick hitter to Gabriel. Boom, quick hitter to Cameron. Boom, draw to Crowell, Boom, Boom, Boom ... next thing you know we are at the Baltimore 5-yard line, 4th down, six seconds left on the clock. Shaw drops back, almost sacked, twists out of it, looks for somebody open, nothing there, scrambles some more, pump fakes and takes off for the corner pylon. Boom, he is flipped up in the air, comes down, swipes the pylon with the ball just before he lands out of bounds, Touchdown Browns! Hartley banks the PAT off the left goalpost and the Ratbirds are home stewing for New Years. BROWNS 17 RAVENS 16 Cincinnati at Pittsburgh 8:30 PM Sunday Night Football Crystal didn't go into much detail on this one. She garbled something about Pittsburgh sucks. But not as well as Crystal.

Looking for a scorefest here.Rain all day should clear out before this late start.CIN run game is scary, but LeBeau should figure a way to put the game on Dalton's shoulders.... and if it comes down to Andy vs. Ben...Prediction: PTG 34 CIN 26Cleveland (+10.0) @ BaltimoreTwo teams limping to the finish with one having dim playoff hopes. It was not too long ago that this looked like a very important season ender. Now it's just Shaw's debut...More than Shaw's appearance it is Ngata's absence that gives me some hope... just not quite enough.Prediction: BLT 24 CLE 17 Weekly Results ... Prev ..... This ...

bringbackbrownie2 Posted December 30, 2014 Report Share Posted December 30, 2014 As usual, the Great Zom-choke-on-boner is right off target with his picks. But you know what Zom, you're right about us Steelers fans living in the past. A past where our team always won... kind of like the present. Hey, how about some love for YOUR division champs, the Pittsburgh Steelers? You seem to have an infatuation with penises. I don't think Zombo is that kind of guy. Try the Steeler boards..

Great year, the best part is that the Browns own the Steelers for a year, 31-10. http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap3000000409347/article/browns-slam-rival-steelers-in-decisive-home-win Zombo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These guys are so stupid that they actually act surprised when Zombo picks the Browns to win and the Steelers to lose. They are also surprised when they see that the sun comes up in the east and sets in the west. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Gipper Posted December 30, 2014 Report Share Posted December 30, 2014 You do realize I'm merely parodying your own board's policy of changing perfectly innocent handles to homoerotic versions. Or are you that blind? I'd say if anyone's got a thing for peckers it would be the guys who run this place. Don't blame me, son, for what they started. It is only done because it suits you.....not for any other reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zombo Posted December 31, 2014 Author Report Share Posted December 31, 2014 Gee and here I thought the Steelers and Browns played TWO games against each other this season. So the new definition of "owning" is achieving an even split? Well, guess I should expect the lower standards here. The standard is getting your ass whopped the LAST time the team's met. But if you want to include the first game, then you were actually outscored 58-13 over 6 quarters. The Browns were clearly the better team head-to-head this year, it's not really up for debate.
