What the hell is wrong with the NFC this year? At this point in the season, teams that are 5-6 have a shot at the playoffs. I mean, the Eagles clinched a division already, and the Steelers and Patriots - both also at 10-1 - are only winning their divisions by 3 and 2 games respectively (with five games left in the season).

Seattle leads their division at 6-5! The AFC divisions are led by two 10-game winners and two 8-game winners. The NFC: 10, 9, 7, and 6.

It's abysmal. I like it when the AFC wins the Super Bowl, but can the NFC even put up a fight? The AFC was 5-1 last weekend in interleague play, and they haven't fared much better in any of the previous weeks.

I agree, it is abysmal. I'm a Philly fan myself and this could be our year... again. But overall, the quality of teams in the NFC is pathetic compared to the AFC. It makes me wonder just when the balance of power shifted. In the early-mid 1990's the NFC was very dominant, but now that isn't the case. One thing I've noticed is that many of the top AFC teams are very strong defensively (Indianapolis this year and Kansas City last year being the notable exceptions). In the NFC, Atlanta has a decent defense and Philly is still pretty solid (not against the run, though-thanks, Pittsburgh) despite numerous injuries. Defense is the key, in my opinion.

Defense is the reason Indianapolis may exit early. Then again, they have such a powerful offense, who knows? I'm just glad that the Raiders won yesterday.

The power shift? Maybe when New England beat St. Louis. It seems to me that every year before then the AFC was better.

And nearly every team would have fared better than the Raiders against Tampa Bay when they won the Super Bowl. Heck, Pittsburgh beat them easily in the regular season.

Yowtch, that loss still stings a bit. But certainly a bit less than all the losses this season for the Bucs. *sigh*

      How to Remove Verdigris From Black Burner 2.0 Irons....

      By Archie Bunker ·

      You might want to try a can of Bar Keepers Friend. Yes, it is abrasive, so just wet a sponge and dab it on. It has oxalic acid (no bleach like "Comet" kitchen cleanser), and it works wonders on stainless steel and other metals. Try it on a small area first to see what happens.

      Fair   My uneducated thought: the big miss is the penalty area. If you want to optimize score, missing into the bunker (likely 5) is better than missing right into the penalty (possible 6). With that, your strategy seems sound and if you hit a committed shot, you get a bunker 5% of the time, take your medicine and hopefully get a putt for par but accept bogey. You may find yourself in a penalty situation 2-3% of the time and accept the associated outcome. The vast majority of the time though you are giving yourself a good approach shot into the green.

      How Much do You Exercise?

      By Elmer ·

      I walk 30 mins a day on my lunch break. It is not very intense (since i dont want to get sweaty in my work clothes), so just a touch above leisurely. 3 days a week I walk on the treadmill for 60 mins. I alternate the incline from 4 to 10 for a couple minutes, once every ten minutes. I lift my kettlebells nearly everyday. I have a couple complex routines. I find just 15 minutes and my heart rates is elevated
