    I wish we would stop doing this as often as we do. We gave the Saints a 4 goal to 1 start last time.

      We don’t do it that often. Our signature move is actually kicking the first three goals and losing.

        It's not really thinking, it's just the team we are under Bevo. We'll be ready to make amends from being embarrassed by a better team last week and take it out on a weaker one.

        I'll be surprised if we don't win comfortably.
        The curse is dead.

          LOLS. I feel like we have a few signature moves.

          Losing against teams above us and losing every close game are close to top of the tree.
          What should I tell her? She's going to ask.

            We've won 4 from 12 first quarters for the season and 2 of those were the first 2 rounds. Mostly they haven't been big margins but our starts are an issue and I'm sure Bevo has mentioned it.
