"winning won" ?

You might have had more beverages than me.

Do you know what year they won in ? I think it was in the early 70's or late 60's.

This guy just dug a deeper and deeper hole for himself. Kinda silly to have me defending the Cowboys, when I am rooting for the Chiefs.

Maybe I made a mistake...

Naw, you didn't make a mistake. That guy was a JOKE.

 

[Mansta54]

Wow, you know you are a supertroll when a skin fan sides with the cowboys on something.

Nice pics (africa), thanks for sharing. Looks like you had great company too

As most of you guys know, I love smack talk and will defend the Commanders as much as possible...

But to disrespect the game and its history is just stupid. The other Chiefs fans (GoChiefs and ChiefsGirl ? ? ) have seemed like honest fans of their teams and true fans of the game. People like this just irritate me.

haha damn my typing to fast and not thinking

They played in 1967 and 1970 winning in 1970

Understood.

Hey, I was in the general vicinity.

There is no way that guy was 35+ acting like that.

Me too, that cat was off the hook...

was it 35? I thought it was 3+5

 

[Mansta54]

You could tell he was just a kid..

 

[Uh-Oh]

The Cowboys have lost more SBs than the Chiefs have even played in.
Last one being ? Probably before you were born.

I am pretty sure that the Cowboys won the SB in 96 Vs. the Steelers.

Hell has frozen over. GO SKINSANDTERPS!

Actually, I'm incredibly good at math. In fact, I had a perfect math score on the SAT back in the day. (No, I don't expect you to believe me, but it's true.) I admit I'm using very questionable methods to come up with the 1 in 27 stat, but the math is sound.
All I've said is that they're wrong approx 1/3 of the time. If you randomly choose 3 of their collective historical picks, there is approximately a 1 in 27 chance of them all being wrong.

That's not "sound" math, it's misguided math. Just because you can multiply 3x3x3 doesn't mean you're actually figuring out the odds of them being wrong about this game. What you did is calculate the odds that one (or all) of them would be wrong about any three games. But see, in this case, all three are picking ONE game, and they're picking the same team to win. So the odds of them all being wrong (based on their prior accuracy) is simply the average of the odds of each one being wrong. If you found 10 prognosticators who each had 66.67 percent accuracy, and they all picked Team A over Team B in a pick'em game, the odds that all 10 would be wrong is 33.33 percent (if one is wrong, they're all wrong). If you had 10,000 of the same prognosticators, the odds still would be 33.33 percent. The odds don't change just because there's more of them -- they're still picking only one game.

I find so few people appreciate mathematics like I do

My best math 8+22+88 = 3

 

[Mansta54]

My best math 8+22+88 = 3

Nice!!! I like that, very creative and true...

 

[TunaFan33]

I guess we'll see what happens tomorrow.

I have a bad feeling about this game. However-in wk 5, ONLY Matt Mosley(among 1000's of pundits) predicted we would beat the Iggles.

 

[cowboyeric8]

My best math 8+22+88 = 3

That reminds me of during the 95 year a fan held up a sign 8+22=30 I always thought that was cool.

 

[Bob Sacamano]

Beat the 2-time defending SB champs while you were losing to Denver.

congrats, you beat a Pat team, less than 80% healthy

 

[Bob Sacamano]

I'd much rather be coming off wins against 6-4 and 9-2 teams than coming off of two losses against 8-2 and 7-4 teams.

losing to 8-2 and 7-4 teams, respectively, is bad?

name the last bad team, we've lost too

you'll have to go back to week 5, while we only have to go back 3 weeks to see your loss against a bad team...

That said, I know I'm very conveniently manipulating the stats here. Lighten up.

so you admit to BSing and trolling? nice

 

[Bob Sacamano]

If you can play a great game at home and still lose to Denver, you don't belong in the playoffs.

being that Denver is an AFC team, and not NFC, I find that extremely hard to believe

we lost a tough, fought out game, against one of the league's premier teams, in fact, if our kicker doesn't blow his only chip-shot...game over, we win, and you have nothing to say...

btw, I don't believe in coulda, shoulda, woulda, but we came this close to beating Denver, so how exactly is that any indication of playoff success or failure?

 

[Bob Sacamano]

I'm talking about my team and getting a bunch of Dallas fans all worked up.

I'm actually not breaking a sweat, making you look a fool
