I Dislike Your Favorite Team

It all comes down to this.  The final week in the 2012 NFL Pick'em.  Do not despair at those rankings, because there is a blizzard of bonus points from the beginning of the season.  So hang on tight, make these final picks count and cross your fingers. 

Next week will crown the IDYFT Regular Season Champion.  It will also launch the Playoff Pick'em, which promises more thrills, more competitiveness, more wild action for any and every reader of this site.  Spread the word!

We'll just forget about last week.  Apparently the pneumatic tubes at Badcock Industries became obstructed by a surge of RG3-related limericks, and our participants' picks didn't make it to the proper NFL therapist/analyst departments.

Fear not.  In the spirit of Festivus, we'll just vacate last week's action. 

What about the playoff pick'em, you may ask?  I've got some good things planned, and it's going to be sweet.  But first, the wrestling.

The internet has been reporting that Nerfneck Turner will be fired as soon as this season is over.

This is a great day, and every day henceforth shall also be great!

The Neck has been severed!

Bonus:  I found this classic while searching images of "norv turner neck"


Guess where it came from?  A totally raunchy and hilarious post on this very site, back in the "Badcock" days, about the hiring of Wade Philips in Dallas and Norv Turner in San Diego.  The best part is that I was hilariously 100% right about everything.

It contains this chestnut:

Genius? His playcalling is shit. Shit. Norval Eugene Turner, your playcalling is Shit.

This firecracker post is called Wade Deeper, My Nerfneck and it pulls the saga of Nerfneck into crystalline focus.  Even though it seems to have been written under the influence of Irish whiskey.

Norv Turner, you suck!  Fuck you!

You suck!

Well I pulled a grand boner last week and forgot to enter my picks until Monday morning.  Obviously disqualified from most picks, I am only giving myself credit for the picks I was locked into, proven beyond a reasonable doubt (IDYFT & Clash).

It's the last quarter of the season.  Playoff races are on fire in several divisions.  It's a good time of year to have a player so dynamic, he can single-handedly save your entire franchise.  Jess, it might be time for you to get a new favorite team.  Detroit isn't a team to be proud of.  Have you considered flashy yellow pants?
