Dobiebowl Week 4 En Espanõl

Hey Everybody!

Thanks for playing the
Dobiebowl – Now in its Halloween Makeup! & a big nepotistic Congrats to Daddio (Me dear ole’ Dad). He raised me as a Dolphin’s fan, converted me to the Jaguar camp, nurtured me into the man I am today… and all he got out of it was a weekly win on the Dobiebowl =) Happy Birthday early Pops!

Right, in honor of last Sunday night’s game in Mexico City I will impart to you all the full extent of my Spanish. (Drum roll please)

“Por favor mantengase se la hada de las puertas” as far as I can tell it means “Please keep your hands clear of the doors.” – It’s what they say on the
Monorail at Disney world & I’ve gotta thank Brad Bergdoll for that one (where ever you are). They say our next international game may be in London. By then I hope to be able to offer an English version of the Dobiebowl (right now I’ve only got it in American). I imagine they’ll be a lot of “Ye braggart scribes, writ thou epistles upon thee board-o-message!” Heh… I kid the Brits.

Now, on to football. For those keeping score, the # of undefeated teams is 4 (yeah I forgot to mention Washington in the last email –sorry Brunell, we miss you in Jax)
Washington 3&0, Tampa Bay 4&0, Indy 4&0, Cincinnati 4&0… But I’ve just gotten a message from the ’72 Fins and it simply says, “Ain’t Skeer’d”.
So we’re still lookin’ for a keychain winner and it’s shaping up to be a challenge and a half. Last year we were confident in our Patriots Picks, but the 1&2 Chargers dominated ‘em 41 to 17, Favre's cheese heads have completely curdled as they share the
throne of the winless with the Texans. Detroit, a pre-season lock to win their division, has only beaten the Packers, and the ‘Super-bowl bound’ Panthers are a mediocre 2&2. And yes, the Jags lost at home… Grrr. I‘m thinking of picking all my games this week opposite to what I really woulda picked, just to try and get my numbers up. You should try it too… Cedric! Then again, with your luck you’ll end up Perfectomundo!

And finally, I apologize for the lateness of this email. I try to get ‘em out by Friday mornin’, but this week I’ve been spending extra time tryin’ to teach my baby football:


This is our Baby ‘Bailey’-Bear and as soon as she learns to fetch, she’s gonna be drafted as a Jets QB!
(Sorry Chicken, it’s just too easy)
