Minn over Pitts - The towels are in the laundry today.
N.E. over T.B. -
Houston over S.F. - Who knows?
Buffalo over Carolina - Can Jauron salvage what's left?
Oaktown over Jets - But only if their defense plays like last week!
Atlanta over Dallas - I'm not convinced Dallas has what it takes this year.
Chicago over Cinci - They need the win to keep up in division.
N.O. over Miami - More target practice.
Giants over Arizona - This could possibly be a close game.
Phili over Wash - If they ever needed a foe to bounce back against...
What a miserable week. There is a good reason I don't put my money where my mouth is!!! Minnesota could have won. They threw the game away in the 4th.

But for those who could care less - I'll continue to throw in my $0.02 every week.

It's nice they're doing it. I would rather have them do something for prostate cancer then breast cancer. I think it would make more sense. Being that it affects their main demographic and more men die from prostate cancer than women do from breast cancer.

Really? I didn't think that was the case at all.

Do you have a source for that?

American Cancer Society :: Information and Resources for Cancer: Breast, Colon, Prostate, Lung and Other Forms At the American Cancer Society they only have PDF's with all their figures.

I just refered back to an article that I was reading earlier today. I read it this morning and then refered back to it before posting. I read it WRONG twice!

Deaths from breast cancer are about 40-45,000 for women and 30ish thousand for men. That's per year for the last 8 years.
