Title: Examing jtex's 0 - 16 Prediction Post by: Jim Gray on October 31, 2011, 05:02:53 pm If you get pissed off by jtex's yearly 0 - 16 prediction, you might want to skip this thread. Personally, I find it amusing.
Through 7 games, jtex's overall prediction has been on track. Just to torture Dolphin fans a little more, I thought I would dredge up the prediction thread and see how accurate his game predictions have been. Week 1: vs. New England Tom Brady will throw 5 TDs before halftime like he did in 2007. Big blowout on MNF. Score 38 - 24. Miami kept it close in the 1st half and Brady fell short of 5 TDs by 1.....and it took him 4 quarters to get there. Blowout? No, but a solid win. Week 2: vs. Houston Miami has never beaten the Houston Texans. Ever. Won't change here. Score 23 - 13. jtex didn't make any outrageous claims, so he got this one right. Week 3: at Cleveland Madden '11's cover boy will stomp the Dolphins. Don't discount a Mike Holmgren team! Score 17 - 16. No stomping, just a gut wrenching come from behind win. Week 4: at San Diego This is going to be a huge blowout. It's hot in SD, too, and this is a 1PM start on the west coast. Score 26 - 16. I don't consider a 10 point loss a huge blowout. Miami kept it close until the 3rd quarter. Week 5: BYE The only week during the NFL season which the Dolphins will not register a loss jtex is spot on Week 6: at New York (Jets) It's going to be the Mark Sanchez show Score 24 - 6. Sanchez is average, turns out to be the Revis show who has 2 picks, one for a TD Week 7: vs. Denver Never I thought that I would root for Tim Tebow in a million years, yet this will mark the second time in a year where this is the case. WTF? Score 18 - 15. Again, no bold prediction, but jtex does mention Tim Tebow, so I'll give him this one. Week 8: at New York (Giants) Same stadium as week 6, different team, same result. A big fat loss. (Oh yeah, Let's Go Giants!!!!) Score 23 - 20. I wish jtex would give us more specifics in his predictions, since it's hard to argue with "big fat loss". For the remaining games, Joe provides a little more detail, so I'll be watching those carefully.

I don't feel like I should edit the thread now, as that would "jinx" the streak that I have going on.
I promise more detail for future 0-16 threads :) Title: Re: Examing jtex's 0 - 16 Prediction Post by: Sunstroke on November 01, 2011, 12:42:03 pm ^ I really wanted to go deep in details, but I didn't have time to insert them. I don't feel like I should edit the thread now, as that would "jinx" the streak that I have going on. Not to mention that editing a "season prediction" thread halfway through the season would be more than a wee bit shady... Title: Re: Examing jtex's 0 - 16 Prediction Post by: EKnight on November 01, 2011, 05:37:52 pm Is it really great prognosticating though, when he makes an 0-16 prediction every year and his "details" are pretty far off? The Cleveland game? Madden cover boy didn't even play. The Mark Sanchez show was pretty ho-hum. And, as was pointed out, ten points does not equate a huge blowout. If all he's going to do it just say, "Yes, they will lose again this week," I'd be more impressed if he would have called the Chiefs' or Eagles' wins this weekend. -EK

Title: Re: Examing jtex's 0 - 16 Prediction Post by: Dave Gray on November 06, 2011, 03:24:06 pm He should be laughing at us. We are pathetic and we're squandering an opportunity for a franchise QB.

I was just thinking at how hard they are blowing it, winning a meaningless game to give the Colts a seemingly insurmountable lead at 0-9. Title: Re: Examing jtex's 0 - 16 Prediction Post by: raptorsfan29 on November 06, 2011, 03:44:10 pm 31-3 with 5 minutes left, no way they blow it and Jtek 0-16 prediction is gone.
Title: Re: Examing jtex's 0 - 16 Prediction Post by: dolphins4life on November 06, 2011, 03:54:33 pm I doubt the Colts will pick Andrew Luck first, given that they have Peyton Manning, so we can still get him.

There are still 2 other very good QBs that Miami could get.

It does seem like the colts could better use that pick on defense.

I'm "eating crow" because I picked 0-16 and after losing 10 straight going back to last season, they actually got one. Moron. Title: Re: Examing jtex's 0 - 16 Prediction Post by: Landshark on November 06, 2011, 10:38:13 pm Yes, Tommy. I'm "eating crow" because I picked 0-16 and after losing 10 straight going back to last season, they actually got one. Moron. Who the hell is Tommy? My name is Lee, son. Title: Re: Examing jtex's 0 - 16 Prediction Post by: Sunstroke on November 06, 2011, 10:57:13 pm Who the hell is Tommy? My name is Lee, son. I'm sure it's just a case of mistaken identity, no worries. Everyone knows you're the professor on the boat, and not the beached whale... And to get things back on thread: In tonight's news, Joe Tex's annual pile of shit thrown at the wall doesn't stick. Film of a brown smear at eleven... Title: Re: Examing jtex's 0 - 16 Prediction Post by: Tenshot13 on November 07, 2011, 12:22:37 am Everyone knows Tommy is a Budweiser guy, not Landshark.
Title: Re: Examing jtex's 0 - 16 Prediction Post by: MaineDolFan on November 07, 2011, 10:55:37 am So this prediction can go back into the closet for next season (along with other not so subtle things on this board)?
Title: Re: Examing jtex's 0 - 16 Prediction Post by: Phishfan on November 07, 2011, 11:02:22 am Wow, Landshark is actually Tommy? I don't think any of us knew that. That is a complete shocker! I'm really just surprised it took him being called out no less than four times before he actually responded in some way (although this is actually the first time I think it was stated outright).
Who the hell is Tommy? My name is Lee, son. In addition to that fake name, I also called you out for giving us two different ages. You have been caught posting pictures that have been identified as someone else's (remember that nice space shuttle pic). Please drop the charade. Title: Re: Examing jtex's 0 - 16 Prediction Post by: Jim Gray on November 07, 2011, 11:57:06 am Everyone knows Tommy is a Budweiser guy, not Landshark. I don't think so. I remember in one of our beer threads that Tommy likes Landshark.

Ha ha ha...this is pretty hilarious if true--probably even better than JTex's 0-16 *prediction* coming to an end (though I certainly appreciate your G-Men hanging another 'L' in the Patsies' win-loss column yesterday--thank ya, baby!). Tommy posing this whole time under another board *identity*!?? I mean, I've seen it mentioned numerous times as Phish alluded to above, or at least insinuated--what with Tommy's blatant plagarism in the past from other sites, part. 'Stroke's stuff--but I also just assumed/hoped it happened to be coincidence, even if Landshark might be guilty of the same sins. If true, though, I think I will lose my shit. Too funny!!! Title: Re: Examing jtex's 0 - 16 Prediction Post by: masterfins on November 07, 2011, 03:12:47 pm Who the hell is Tommy? My name is Lee, son. just drop off the Keys Lee, don't need to be coy like Roy.

I'm really late on this..but I remember being drunk at my buddy's house watchin the game and thinking to myself "NO LEAD IS SAFE" |
