Here is a bye week thought for you.

 

Are the kind of idiot who goes into a donut shop and buys 3 dozen donuts, with a long line waiting, and then like a homosexual have to individually pick each donut? As if you are Picaso? Hey dumbass.... just tell the guy... "three dozen, you pick em, we'll eat em'>

 

80% of the donuts eaten as glazed, and raised chocolate frosted. so guess what/ All those homo fancy flvors you wate precious life picking out? Yeah, they are the last shit to be eaten and everyone is pissed because there are no glazed or chocolate frosted ones left.

 

Asshole!

Moral of the story: Only buy one dozen donuts at a time?

Here is a set of Trivia for the Bye Week.:

Answers....none of which the Vag knew

 

1. Name, in order, as of today, the top 6 QBs in all time passing yards.

1. Favre 2. Peyton 3. Marino 4. Brees 5. Elway 6. Brady Note: Brees passed Elway in the game vs. the Browns and Brady passed Warren Moon in like the first game or two of the year.

 

 

2. Which NFL Championship Game was decided by a safety when a QB hit the crossbar of the goalpost with a pass which at that time resulted in a safety?

It was the 1945 NFL Championship game Cleveland Rams vs. Washington Redskins. Won by Cleveland 15-14. It was Sammy Baugh that hit the post. What the hell, we will take it. The Browns lost a couple of Championships by like 1 or 2 points.

 

 

3. What do these dollar figures represent?: $210.30, $140.22 ?

 

They are the winners and losers share from the first ever playoff game, 1933 Bears over Giants. Bears players got the $210.30 (which to many was probably a months wages)

 

 

4. One of the most famous blocks ever made in NFL history was the block made by Jerry Kramer in the "Ice Bowl" game of 1967 that allowed Bart Starr to make it into the endzone on the QB sneak. Who did Jerry Kramer block?

Jethro Pugh....not to be confused with Jethro Bodine

 

 

5. What does this figure represent: 82:40 ?

 

It is the length of time of the longest game in hitory 82 minutes 40 seconds. On Christmas Day 1971. Dolphins vs. Chiefs in an AFC Divisional playoff game.

 

 

6. In the AFC since 1970 the AFC title game featured the same two teams in back to back (or more) years on 4 occasions. Name those teams and the approximate dates in which they met in those consecutive AFC title games:

In 1974/75/76, three straight years the Raiders and Steelers met.

In 1978/79 the Steelers and Oilers met.

In 1986/87 the Browns and Broncos met

In 2011 and 2012 the Patriots and Ravens met.

 

 

7. In the NFC since 1970 the NFC title game featured the same two teams in back to back (or more)years on 2 occasions. Name those matchups and the approximate dates they took place.

Same two teams, different eras:

1970/71 Cowboys and 49ers met

1992/93/94 Cowboys and 49ers met in three straight years.

 

 

8. What did these respective teams accomplish....beyond being NFL champions those years: 1934 NY Giants, 1942 Washington Redskins, 2007 NY Giants.

Yes, they each defeated an undefeated team up to that point in a championship game. The 34 Giants and the '42 Redskins beat Da Bears. The 2007 Giants beat the NE Patriots.

Only two teams have ever gone through a season unscathed: The 1948 Browns and the 1972 Dolphins.

 

 

9. What do these figures represent: .444, .522, .531, .558
