ok I'll pick Cinci and SF then, with tie-breaker saying DT goes scoreless with Louisa.
LOL is it still a shutout if I get her to smile?
no. Recruiters are basically the strippers of the corporate world. They get paid to make you believe you're worth something and that they like you, but really just see you as a paycheck.
Normally I would agree but the woman that got me my current job was a former Dallas Mavs cheerleader!

Seems like that just proves my point more. They hire attractive women because stupid men want to talk to them (both clients and businesses).

I don't know if that makes a man stupid, or just a man.

She could look like Jabba the Hut if she has a job I am interested it and I would still talk to her. She could show up the video call topless and I still wouldn't be interested if it was a line supervisor position at a cat food factory in rural Arkansas. btw I assume you know that the company pays the recruiters not the employees.

I do agree that her looks certainly didn't hurt in getting the job but I have found that good looking people have better people skills than trolls so makes sense on that level.

I've already let you guys in on who's winning and losing, but i'm going to take it one step further and reveal what the scores will be (in my expert opinion).

So here it is fellas...

Chiefs 41 Bengals 27
49ers 24 Rams 21

Niners 19 to 17
Chiefs 36 to 23

Though that Bengals score might be a bit low.
