    I'm guessing it was probably the Browns over the Bengals 51-45.

    nope

    although, if you keep guessing boring games, it's gonna be a while

    Oh... I could post sarcasm galore as we investigate your bias... and your bizarre notion of what is boring.... but I think not.

    This thread or the pissing matches on it? Because I doubt one is going to end without the other.

    Yes, and you're completely above the fray. ::)

    Both sports are inherently boring. In baseball, the ball is in play for about 300 pitches a night. Each pitch takes one second. The ones put in play take 5 or 6 seconds. The ball is actually moving for about 12 minutes a night.

    In football, there are about 150 plays in a game. Each play takes about 5 seconds. The ball is in play for about 12 hours a game.

    For the other 2 hours and 48 minutes of each, nothing happens. I'd say both are pretty freaking dull.

    (Note: All numbers were estimated. I hope my point is received, especially by gifted wordsmiths like Hoops_McCann)

    Where exactly in my post did I say that? Oh, that's right. I didn't. I fully acknowledge my place right in the middle of it.

    Yeah, now. After you were called out for it. You do that all the time. You get in the middle of a pissing match, then you try to back off and say "Come on, guys. Let's cool it." I doubt I'm the only one who notices.

    You know how I rarely I think you are 100 percent right....

    Well, you just drilled a double against the fence.

    Actually, he's wrong again.

    I never tried to cool anything down. Not one bit. I made a comment about SC's post. The point being that there really isn't much on this thread but pissing matches. Sorry you couldn't keep up, Doc.

    My reading comprehension is just fine, thanks. So is my ability to detect your constant sanctimony. :)
