It's That Time Of Year... The Official "Put up OR Shut Up" Thread

[BucsFTW]

We've already had a few posters "put it on the line" with their take on what our Bucs record will be.

Now it's YOUR chance.  Post your win/loss record for the season, and we can dig this puppy up at the end of the season to see what kind of prognosticators we all are.

I don't want any "quantifiers", i.e. no "ifs" or "maybes".  Just a FINAL win/loss record.

Anyone could have said "we'll go 4-12 next year, UNLESS we come-from-behind in half a dozen games, in which case we'll go 10-6"...

NOT in this thread though please.  Give it a hard number, and roll with it.

Posting actual scores is optional, BUT - posting which teams we'll beat OR lose to is preferred.

We've already had Jdub post his 9-7 OR 10-6, but even Jdub's gotta pick a win/loss prediction (with NO maybes).  We've got Prowl locked in at 5-11, and a few others have made their "Yeah, but" predictions, but those don't fly in this thread.  Here's your chance...

I'll happily post mine first.

I want the rules better explained. How close do we have to come to be considered a true fan? Is it like the opposite of Price Is Right, where it's okay to go over on wins but not under?

@Falcons - (?) Bucs and Falcons will both be 9-6 at this point and we'll be fighting for that 10th win to take the last wildcard spot. Will be epic.

Divisionial Round
#5 Tampa Bay (11-5) @ #1 Philidelphia (14-2) 10-35 L  (and the eagles get their revenge from 2003. ronde isn't gonna be able to ice this vicotory the eagles are just too good for us)

LMAO luminous one...  I don't buy into the whole "true fan" crap, so how far off any of us are won't make any poster (or imposter) any more or less of a fan.  No Price is Right caveats, just for fun here.

Where ya got us at Illuminator?

FWIW...  I AM considering throwing in a free ticket, brews, and BBQ before a 2012 game for the winner.  I think that would be cool.

11-5 Big win against the Falcons takes the NFC South!

[BucsFTW]

anywhere from 9-7 to 11-5

Jesus...  When 'da boys drop, come on back and make a prediction.  Thanks, but we can't send you the home game until you learn to read, AND follow the rules.

[Bschucher]

14-2

Only losses are Lions at home and GB on the road.

[BucsFTW]

My prediction is 9-7 or 10-6.

That type of season ending match-up would definitely be epic, but for your prediction to count, ya gotta pick a winner Jdub.

You're probably one of the most qualified posters, in my opinion, and your post inspired THIS thread, so pick one man!

[ufojoe]

10-6 and this time, it gets us unto the playoffs.
