Well, That Was Unexpected... (Updated)

I feel awful for this guy.  He's the epitome of the saying "so close, yet so far".  He was a great quarterback, a clutch quarterback in some sense, but he threw way too many INT and lost way too many first round matchups in the playoffs.  He had great numbers, but he could never get it done on the field. 

 In 2006 he had an amazing entrance to the NFL, he was a bullet, a god in Dallas, only to have the season end like this:


In 2012 when the Cowboys fell to the Redskins in the final game of the season and missed the playoffs I won a lot of money, so that was pretty nice.  Thanks for that Tony. 

 Then 2016 happened.  Dak Prescott happened.  And despite a mini return the greatest loser ever(?) he vanished from the NFL spotlight with his retirement today. 

 Long live Tony Romo, a quarterback worthy of a career in the city of Buffalo Dallas.

LOSER Tonight and this afternoon will be an outright cluster&@$^.  I can't even begin to try to calculate who we are going to end up playing in the first round.  If we lose tonight it will be the Leafs, simple as that.  If we win and Boston loses their game to Washington then things will get interesting tomorrow night in the finale game of Ottawa vs Boston.  So basically win for drama and lose to play the Leafs.   My heart says lose and sweep the Leafs out in the first round for what would be revenge for every Saturday night game of my childhood living in Ontario.  My sensible self says win and end up playing an easier team seeded way lower than us.  It is going to be an interesting 40 hours ahead.  Oh, and if we draw the Sens in the first round I'd be all over some tickets, so kinda hoping for that too. Gametime is 7PM on CBC. Go Habs Go!

I'm not going to get sucked into the whole Friday morning 6 points out of a playoff spot, game against the Leafs on a back to back storyline today. No way. I stand by my eulogy of the 19/20 season. I will admit this was awesome: Beautiful classic two pad stack from the great Carey Price pic.twitter.com/piw3ZDA42P — That's Hockey Talk (@ThatsHockeyTalk) February 7, 2020 But I'm still not getting sucked into this. The Canadiens have now won 8 of their last 11 games... — Eric Engels (@EricEngels) February 7, 2020 Nope, don't care, I have already declared this team dead. Carey Price has a .924 save percentage since Dec. 1. Since Jan. 1 it’s .937. — Eric Engels (@EricEngels) February 7, 2020 Okay okay, but if we can't score does it really matter anyway?
