    I know I'm a character here, and say and do stuff that you guys either love or hate me for, so I have put together my best and worst of 2006:

    Best:
    1. Proclaiming Vince Young to be the ROY, much do the dismay of several here. I told you all that he was going to be a prodigy, and very few believed it.

    2. Being 2nd in TFL and 1st so far in the picks. Further proof that if I put my brain to something, that I'm not as much an idiot as I seem. :)

    3. Calling a 10-2 season immediately after the Florida loss. People here were panicking and calling for Miles' head, but I said we'd win out... and, I'm certainly glad we did. :)



    Biggest Misses:

    1. Calling a Superbowl for the Cowboys in the 1st quarter of their 1st game. Too bad they lost that game, and have no real shot to win it all. lol

    2. Posting that Tom Glavine was out for the season prematurely, even though the article I read had a quote from Glavine saying he was done. Who cares? The Mets still lost. :)

    3. Saying all throughout the college basketball season that Florida was horrible, and overrated, even though they won the title. I still think UCLA was the only "good" team they played in the entire NCAAs, though.




    I suppose I could think of others, but couldn't think of any off-hand...
    Please don't take this too seriously, this is just something I did out of boredom on a real rainy day. :)

    Not a bad idea here Clair, though you're kinda required to do an annual review since you're a journalist now. I'll have to give this some thought, and chime in later.

    Until then, I wish I could join you with biggest misses, but alas, there are none. For the best of 2006, please see all of NLMD's posts.

    I am not sure but did I hear somewhere that he is leading the NFL in drops this year? I think I heard 17 or 19 of them.

    Just a question not trying to bash the Owens fan.

    the problem is is that you rarely are honest. you did not read a quote from glavine that said he was done. not even close. you read about a guy who was allegedly tom's brother saying tom was done - on a message board!

    it wasnt that you were wrong, it was that you kept making stuff up, which you continue to do, even now.

    i'm sorry if i don't live up to your standards for me, my dear... :dis::cry:

    and yes, T.O. definately needs to be on one of my misses...

    SO: #4. My constant defending of T.O., even though it seems like a dead-end lol

    I have to live by that horse, though... it's WAAAAAY too late to go back now.

    Well the first step is admitting the problem and the next step is to remove that sig pic. :hihi:

    I hope I am not eating my words come playoff time.:thumb:

    yeah

    he may be this, and he may be that, but he has been a fantastic playoff player in his career...

    the misconception here is that I am anti-Saints, and that isn't true...

    they're #2 behind Dallas for me.
