Apologies for the sabatical. The Pix received some important
information over the holidays that required some personal reflection and
no small amount of research. Only after some significant soul searching
and multiple cans of deliciousness was the Pix finally able to accept
and in turn embrace the new reality that is the Pix' existence. Some
background......The surname Case is generally believed to be of English
(mostly Welsh) origin. A little Scotish, very little Irish and an even
smaller amount of German. However, the official father of the Pix
recently purchased a book on all immigrants who came to America sharing
the surname Case. The results of said purchase have resulted in a
startling development that still has the Pix surprised, confused,
relieved and ultimately delighted. It seems that a very small number of
Cases actually hail from the 3rd largest Greek isle. That of Lesbos.
Indeed, my friends, it seems the Pix is...in fact...at least
partially.....a Lesbian. Truth be told, the Pix has long suspected
this. A long time admirer of the poetic works of Sappho and Lesbians in
general, the Pix has always felt a kindred spirit and attraction to his
people. It seemed that a little further research would be a good idea,
though, so the Pix immediatley went on line and purchased several dvd's
and magazines to explore this new revelation in regards to family
history. In fact, the Pix even encouraged the official wife to join him
in a journey to Lesbos and embracing the culture and tradition of their
fellow islanders. Alas, the official wife is Irish and is pretty much
all set with that. The Pix........

Ny at Dallas. The G men are riding high after putting a scare into the
Pats and going on the road to upset the Bucs. The Pix just has a
feeling that the momentum can continue for at least one more week. NY
has won something like 8 consecutive road games this year ( the last
loss in Dallas in week 1) and is playing the best football of any team
outside of New England right now. TO will be a little gimpy as high
ankle sprains are hard to get over. Romo has a spotty record in big
games. Giants 27, Dallas 23.

SD at Indy. This one will be over by halftime. Without Gates to open
up the middle of the field, Rivers will have to rely on Chambers and
Jackson to get open just under the corners against Indy's cover 2 (which
Dungy invented in Tampa) while waiting for Bob Sanders to arrive and
decapitate them. Not happening. Colts put 8 in the box to restrain
Ladudian and the Bolts will go back to SD whining that, well, whatever.
They always have an excuse. The Pix says if you actually have to do
stuff with your family this weekend, this is the game to miss. Indy 42,
SD 14.

Sea at GB. There Breet goes again. It's playoff week and the only
thing Breet talked about was whether or not he'll be back next year.
Apparently, breaking Blanda's all time interception record wasn't
enough, Breet wants to shatter it. At this point, however, the Pix
wouldn't know what to do without Breet in his life. Who to obsess
about, Clemens? Hillary? Country Wide Financial? No, we need Breet.
And we need him to lose to Seattle this week if only to see Peter King
spit up his double mocha decaf latte. Hawks 17, Breet 13.

Jags at Juggernaut. Thanks for stopping by, boys. See you next year.
Mike Huckabee has a better chance of winning the Democratic nomination
than the Jags have of winning in Foxboro. Their d line is dinged up and
the Pats are rested and ready. The Guru will not be denied his place in
history by a team led by Jack Del Rio and David Garrard. This is a
beatdown. Pats 35, Jags 7.
