NFL WEEK 7 2022

 We are mostly not trend setters. We do not rush to the newest restaurant on Sobe. We still do not do much on social media. Although we took the handoff from Mr. Markus who was the first legal blog in South Florida and ran with it, we are mostly late to the party. By design. And that includes our current passion: Wordle. We now play it every morning on the digital edition of the NY Times before perusing Le Monde and then the WSJ. Our average is slightly below a 3. We've had a few twos, a four and a few face-saving fives. But we have never stuck out until yesterday. And that's OK. Stuff happens. But what we object to is the Wordle computer telling us that there was only one word left after "Plied". Why wasn't "Spies" a valid guess? You can have repeat letters. Spiel is a much rarer word. We had it. But we went with Spies. We might be wrong (it happens a few times a year), but we think the Wordle Bot is also incorrect. Thoughts? 



The Dolphis celebrate the 50th anniversary of being the only team to win a super bowl after an undefeated season. Who did they beat in the AFC Championship game? Terry Bradshaw and the soon to be dynastic Steelers. Who do the Fins play tonight on Sunday night football? The not-soon to be dynastic Steelers. The key to this game is a three letter word beginning with a T. TUA. The Fins are a different team with T at QB.  7.5 is a lot to give but take your Fins and have a sip of Champagne celebrating 1972.  For us, our pick is a solid under 44.5. Scoring is down in the NFL this year. Just watch every Thursday night bore fest. 

In October who would have thought the NY teams with the best chance to win a championship field 11 and not 9? Not us. The Yanks are on the robes, while the  Jets and Gints are surging.

This is a suckers bet, but it's fun- Parlay Giants +3 over Jags and Jets +.5  over Broncos.  Parlays pay 13/5. Bet fifty and win 130. How can you go wrong? 

Dak is back. Cowboys -7 at home over a tough but not talented Lions team. 


SURVIVOR FINAL TWO 

Mr. Markus and Jason Ireland made it to week six and then TB12 Tom Terrific let them down in a subpar performance against the tricky Steelers. They are out. It's Hanzy & Coco against Blog Fav Fake Alex Michaels. 

Fake Alex Michaels: Cowboys and 31.

H&C: Dolphins and 46.

New Tiebreaker rule- If both lose- someone can earn a very valuable second bye week by exactly picking the point total in the Fins game. For this to matter, both must lose their picks.

It’s because you had to use the L. And you didn’t.

Because when you guessed PLIED, you learned that an L was present.

Rumpole - Question:

Who would win a “best court order” contest between the undisputed heavyweight champion Judge Michael Hanzman or criminal court legend Judge Milton Hirsch?

What about a moot court argument between them as a pay per view event that can raise charity funds for a legal group?

An arm wrestling contest?

Thoughts?

This is huge. FAKE ALEX MICHAELS versus HANZY & COCO? The only 2 left in the survivor pool. Where is Fake Judge Harold Solomon?

Fake Alex Michaels said...

And I yell at all judges who play and tink de can beat me. You are stupids. Try a case and Den let me know how smart you tink you are. I am de best

I agree with the comment above that once the L in PLIED was given the yellow code, that it had to be somewhere in the Final guess.

But on a different track, so far to date, no Wordle answers in 2022 have involved plural words as an answer. There is no official statement that plural words aren't possible. But none have appeared to date. See this list at Screen Rant to confirm.
