Hermes liked BTExpress's post in the thread RIP Rudy Martzke.
Fort Lauderdale may have run team-by-team stats before USAT (I know they did in the early-mid80s). But we stole USAT's idea for running...

Hermes liked HanSenSE's post in the thread RIP Rudy Martzke.

I do think the Browns are a 7-8 win team if Watson never stepped on the field this season. There are too many flaws to be an 11-win team...

Four days after a massive division win, going on the road to play the division doormat in shit weather. I wouldn't say "scheduled loss"...
