Is Communism a form of religious belief?
Is Communism a form of religious belief, where instead of seeing God’s hand at work in all things, one sees the class struggle? When historical events are re-interpreted from a Communist viewpoint in a discussion with non-Communists, is the effect the same as when believers re-interpret historical events as divine intervention, in a discussion with atheists?

Wisdom or Rubbish? A Thread for Evaluating Famous One-Line Nuggets of Advice.
Post your favorite--or most hated--one-line maxim or saying or quote or *insert another synonym here.*

The next person to post will then say what they think of your posted saying, ie, Wisdom or Rubbish and why, and post their own little one-liner. Repeat until hell freezes over (or we get bored...or we devolve into a name-calling contest...whichever comes first...ha, as if it's a question which will come first...)

Rank falling dramatically
So, one day my rank said that I was in the top 62% and I was considered a member... but then randomly it fell to the top 92% and now I'm a casual player. I didn't draw, win, lose, survive, or resign any games in between this period. Why did this happen?

Draws in PPSC
I was wondering to myself why the pot is split evenly in a PPSC draw. I thought it would make more sense, and make things more interesting, if the draw ended the game and dealt out the points each player is currently "worth" in the game.

NFL Pick 'em--PLAYOFF EDITION...12 TEAMS, 1 GOAL...IT'S THE FINAL COUNTDOWN!
The Chargers are the last team standing in that crazy race for the 6th seed in the AFC. Aaron Rodgers rained all over Da Bears' parade, leading the Pack to victory and setting up another classic Niners/Packers clash...only this time, at Lambeau Field. A typical Cowboys/Eagles clash ended in the typical Cowboy way...but it was Orton throwing the season-ending pick this time. The NFC: SEA, CAR, PHI, GB, SF, NO. The AFC: DEN, NE, CIN, IND, KC, SD. The Playoffs...PICK 'EM!

Here we go. Sad the Ravens didn't make it, but that's what happens when your receivers disappear and the O-Line does not do its job.
AFC
Chiefs at Colts -> I go CHIEFS but it be close, real close
Chargers at Bengals -> CHARGERS.

Chargers at Denver -> DENVER. Or at least they SHOULD win
Chiefs at Pats-> Pats will mess it up. Unless it snows. Then the PATS win.

Pats at Denver -> PATS. It comes down to who's defense is better, and if Brady's receivers can catch the ball.

NFC
Saints at Eagles-> EAGLES. Saints can't handle without their precious dome
49ers at Pack-> PACKERS. It's cold, it's Rodgers, and that defense might show up

Pack at Seattle-> SEATTLE. It's at their place.
Eagles at Carolina-> CAROLINA. Cams too good, and that D

Carolina at Seattle-> SEATTLE. The defense is to much for Cam, and Wilson is the good Wilson.

Super Bowl
Seattle vs Pats. SEATTLE. Too good. However, this years Super Bowl will have a twist. The weather will be an issue. Whoever adapts, wins.
A note about the AFC, if the Colts beat the Chiefs, then the Colts go to the Super Bowl. And then lose.
I'm still pissed that the Bears didn't get in. and the Cardinals. They're better teams than the ones who were allowed to sneak in (forgive me Eden).

Wildcard

Saints (6) at Eagles (3) - I would say that this really depends upon the weather. I know it's supposed to snow Friday, so if the conditions are still bad Saturday I'll take the Eagles. But I think the Saints defense is going to be the difference maker here. SAINTS

49ers (5) at Packers (4) - 49ers win it without too much of a problem. Pack didn't deserve to be here anyways. 49ERS

Chargers (6) at Bengals (3) - Inconsistent is how I would describe the Bengals offense. On paper, the Bengals are the better team, but I'm going to go on a limb and say that the team that beat Denver will beat the Bengals. CHARGERS.

Chiefs (5) at Colts (4) - Colts repeat their win of two weeks ago. Andy Reid shouldn't have rested his starters last week. COLTS.

Divisional Round

Saints (6) at Seahawks (1) - not in Seattle they won't win. SEAHAWKS

49ers (5) at Panthers (2) - This one I hate calling. The Panthers defense can be absolutely dominating. And I have to pick Cam over Kap. PANTHERS

Chargers (6) at Broncos (1) - This has the potential of an upset. I don't think Peyton will go that easily though, but who knows. BRONCOS are still the better team, so I'll stick with them.

Colts (4) at Patriots (2) - I can't see a dome team winning outdoors in the middle of an awful New England winter. PATRIOTS

Half my picks will be wrong by this point
Conference Championship

Panthers (2) at Seahawks (1) - Again, home field advantage is just too much here. I don't see it happening. SEAHAWKS

Patriots (2) at Broncos (1) - The Patriots secondary has proved that they can shut down the Broncos WR's. I'll bet on that happening again. PATRIOTS

Superbowl

Patriots vs Seahawks - I have to pick the PATRIOTS here. Seahawks will be away from home, and the crowd is going to be overwhelmingly New England fans.

Everhyone keeps forgetting... The Bengals are undefeated at PBS. No *way* the Charger piss-ants are going to break that streak.
Orka (785 D)
31 Dec 13 UTC
Yes, the bengals are undefeated at home.
When's the last time CinCin won a playoff game? And the chargers are a hidden team, one that can take off and go supersonic, or sink like the Titanic, as in horribly so.
The bengals are just like the chargers. Both those teams are wildly inconsistent, and I'm not sure if Andy Dalton will be good.
We'll see when they play

As a patriots fan, Goldfingers picks would be a dream come true. But as we've mentioned in a previous week when I chose the Broncos over the Patriots and didn't watch the first 3 quarters of the game, I have no faith in the Patriots this year.

We have too many injuries, and our chances of making it to the superbowl ended in Cleveland.
Patriots without injuries would comfortably make it to the superbowls at least in my opinion, and have a good shot at winning it there - they are still a dangerous side and can prove the naysayers wrong,but most likely they crash out REGARDLESS of who they get in the divisional round

I think the patriots vs Cheifs or vs Colts would be a close game and Brady has pulled miracles before... however I don't think we stand chance against the Bengals.

If we can get to the conference finals, I think we could beat the Broncos, as Brady seems to always beats Manning when they face.

That said, I'm not sure why Giddings seems to think we could stand a chance against the Seahawks.

Without Gronk, we don't stand a chance against the Seahawks D

But Goldfinger, they were still 6-2 on the road, and they still ended with the best record in the nfl.

While the 12th man definitely helped, especially against New Orleans, I don't buy the argument that they are worse than the Patriots when on the road.
