whitetailtrax Posted September 26, 2006 Report Share Posted September 26, 2006 My wife comes home last week and says she decided to enter the office Pro football pool and she had no clue who to pick, so she thought about which cities might have the best shopping and picked those teams! OMG I said - who did you pick? She starts telling me and I'm just laughing......looks whose laughing now - the winner of not just her office, but the whole town (real estate offices)! She won some weekly prize and is entered into some national contest for Super Bowl tickets. What could I say, but congratulations. Who knew all that shopping knowledge would ever come in handy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Finn Posted September 26, 2006 Report Share Posted September 26, 2006 Re: Wife won her office football pool last weekend! That's the way it goes. Might as well pick them by how the uniforms look. Congrats to her and good luck with the Super Bowl tickets! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
muggs Posted September 26, 2006 Report Share Posted September 26, 2006 Re: Wife won her office football pool last weekend! that's how it always works. My girlfriend and I had a NCAA tourny bracket head-to-head. I picked on my in-depth knowledge of the teams and she picked on masots...what names sounded "cooler", colors...states the schools were located in. and she killed me.

[/ QUOTE ] I'm getting real tired of having to explain what humor is to you guys. Let me extrapolate. Since my girlfriend beat me, the use of the expression "in-depth sports knowledge" was tongue-in-cheek. You see, since I thought I had things all figured out, and then Sarah beats me with her "which masot would eat the other" system...I was exposed as the fraud I really am. Next time I'll use some quotation marks, and maybe even one of these guys ---> <--- to make the sarcasim more clear. Not sure if that will work, so if you're still a little fuzzy, you guys can just send me a PM for clarification. It will sorta be like those TBS "is this funny" commercials. Try to stay with my boys. I know its not easy...take aspirin for any pain, tylenol for any swelling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/ QUOTE ] finally, somebody. Actually, I think you're right. I think its the wording that Chris is referring to. How's this: "I reached my decision as to which teams to choose based upon my "in-depth knowlege" of the sporting teams, and the contest in which they pariticipate." I tell you one thing, the guy doesn't miss a beat, does he? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
