Quote of the day
"I am serious … and don’t call me Shirley!" -- Leslie Nielsen, (1926-2010), in the movie Airplane! Daily blurb
Frank Gore lived up to his name last night, exiting the game (and the season) with a broken hip.
Congrats to Holy Rollers, with the top Football Pickoff score of 569, (14 correct picks). Almost 63% of all active pickoff slates posted a positive score this week. The Random Dart was not one of them, posting the worst result of the weekend with only 3 correct picks for a score of -463.
All three of the Miami Heat’s big 3 posted good numbers last night, which hasn’t happened often. They were only playing Washington, so I guess it’s a little early for Heat fans to celebrate.
I thought about picking a more sports-related quote from Leslie Nielsen for today’s featured quote, but instead opted for the most famous one. Here was the runner-up: "It's the same old story. Boy finds girl, boy loses girl, girl finds boy, boy forgets girl, boy remembers girl, girl dies in a tragic blimp accident over the Orange Bowl on New Year's Day." Feel free to post your favorites in the blurb comment thread.
