Nathan's random thoughts

I'm an Oscar Meyer Wiener

So, I'm sitting here at work at 7:30pm as my samples run and thought I'd drop a few random thoughts:

Belated NFL Playoff Picks:
Ok, it's going to seem like I'm cheating a little bit, but I'm throwing in a first round mistake because that's how I had it:

AFC
Wild Card Round:
(4) New England over (5) NY Jets
(3) Indianapolis Colts over (6) Kansas City

Divisional Round:
(4) New England over (1) San Diego (whoever wins this game wins the Super Bowl)
(3) Indianapolis over (2) Baltimore

AFC Championship:
(4) New England over (3) Indianapolis

NFC
Wild Card Round:
(5) Dallas over (4) Seattle
(3) Philadelphia over (6) NY Giants

Divisional Round:
(1) Chicago over (5) Dallas
(2) New Orleans over (3) Philly

NFC Championship:
(2) New Orleans over (1) Chicago

SUPER BOWL XLI:
(4) New England over (2) New Orleans

--- I am, unfortunately, only 3-2 in my last five Scrabble games against Kristin. Something absurd came up last time: Kristin played the word "weiner" ... I thought, is it "weiner" or "wiener"? It suddenly became one of those words that you just can't tell for a few minutes, so I looked it up in the online scrabble dictionary. This is what you will find:

WEINER
weiner weiners \ n pl. -S wiener

WIENER
wiener wieners \ n pl. -S a frankfurter

How absurd is that?
