NO @ MIA MIA -1 UPSET OF THE WEEK!
ARI @ NYG ARI -1
PHI @ WAS WAS-1 Minor upset of the week
I have nothing but my whims to go on. How about you?
Things are starting to shape out. Denver looks for real. No one is talking about how good the bears look and we still seem to take Peyton Manning and his skill for granted. Im not saying he doesnt get credit because he does but he is so consistent and so dull with it that the cats on tv keep showing how bored they are with it. Tim Duncan has the same problem.
“Yeah yeah he is great blah blah blah but the best game I saw this week was quarterbacked by Kyle Orton.”
Really? Fuck sport are you watching?
And why do these old retired mediocre players keep downing the wildcat? Shit. Yall the ones who should know that that offense is a throwback and not a gimmick. Next time you hear some guy say its a gimmick, take note that he was an immobile pocket passer in his day.
Anyway. My guess is as good as theirs so here goes. Week 6 picks
STL @JAC JAC -11
NYG @ NO NYG -3
CAR @ TB CAR -3
BAL @MIN MIN -9
DET @ GB GB -11

KC @ WAS WAS -8
ARI @ SEA ARI -3
PHI @ OAK PHI -17
BUF @ NYJ NYJ -6
TEN @ NE NE -13
CHI @ ATL CHI -3

Now dont go bet anything that matters on what I randomly picked!
I am so very thrilled that the prognosticators are more wrong than right. The games are better to me than they have been at the start of the season in quite a while. If New England doesnt show well this week, listen to the two sides of the same coin. One side will panic and write them off. The other side will panic and warn us not to write them off. BOTH sides will make every excuse in the world for why the Pats dont look good. Every excuse, that is, except they got beatup by a better team.
Like pasta on the wall… here are my week 3 picks.. lets see what sticks!
KC @ PHI PHI -9
GB @ STL GB -9
SF @ MIN MIN -3
TEN @ NYJ NYJ -3
ATL @ NE ATL -1
JAC @ HOU HOU -1
NYG @ TB TB -1
WAS @ DET DET -1
CLE @ BAL BAL -17
CHI @ SEA CHI -1
NO @ BUF NO -17
MIA @ SD MIA -7
DEN @ OAK OAK -3
PIT @ CIN CIN -1
IND @ ARI IND -10
CAR @ DAL CAR -1 UPSET OF THE WEEK
Now listen children. I advise you not to gamble. But if you do, don’t use my picks.
Wanna know a secret? Wanna know several secrets? I know nothing about fantasy football. I mean nothing. When people talk about it I zone out and think about how much I loved my Green Machine Big Wheel.
*shrug*
Fantasy football? Is that like stratomatic baseball? And since I am being so honest I might as well admit I have never seen an ultimate fight or mixed martial arts or whatever it goes by. Yes I’m straight. Fuck you. I just never watched one. I have seen highlights. It looks cool and whatnot but I just havent been interested enough to make time for it in my tv schedule.
*shrug*
And another thing… I have never seen an episode of Lost. Yeah yeah I know I know. Someone I trust swears by it. In fact I have been told I need to watch the first two seasons even if that means buying it. (you mean with real money?) I dunno if anything on tv is worth buying…. while it’s still on the air?
*grimace*
And since we are bitching about something that doesnt matter… Let me say for the record that SPORTS is my reality show. I have never seen an episode of Survivor, Fat brides (and I love a pretty fat woman…), rich man seeks gold diggers, difficult pregnancy, help me raise my bad ass kids, please take my crazy ass wife and let me have yours… whatever the shows are.. I dont watch. I suppose I am still too close to drama to find other people’s drama worth sitting through.
Fuck that.
I admit I watched the first 3 seasons of the Real World but by season three when they threw Puck out the house I was convinced they were going to always toss out the one muthafucka in the house who wasnt about the bullshit that was popular in the house… Then, from what I could tell… they did the best they could to ’script’ it but putting volatile peoples in the same environment to create and maintain a false sense of conflict. Fuck that. Fuck that. Plus it gets old after a little while….
I was unfortunate enough to see an episode (my second by the way) of Bridezilla. Oh my!
I think they look for the clearest case of couples who won;t work out and who shouldnt be together and they follow around the bride to be as she is a terrible shit leading up to her wedding. I know it is probably being played up for the cameras but the crazy is high on the what the fuck meter. And I reminded my wife that some women make a huge mistake in thinking that because a man loves them and takes their shit, doesn’t mean he wont tire of it one day and leave.
I should pitch a show idea of the reality of the divorce. Follow the once bridezillas around 3 years later when that guy realizes that a woman might love you who isn’t nuttier than a christmas fruitcake dipped in peanut butter. Call it Divorcedzilla.
I’ll tell you one more secret. If these shows and ones like them went off the air I wouldn’t miss them at all. Unfortunately they are probably here to stay. That said, it wont be a secret anymore that at least one guy could give a fuck less.
Is there parody in the NFL? I don’t tend to think there is. I also believe the people who say that there is, also predict games and are trying to cover for the fact that their weekly picks were way more wrong than right. Sort of like the kids who wanted to complain the wind was blowing hard when you played ball in the park.THAT explains it but they have no explaination when their shot actually went in. You never heard those kids say, “Obviously it was going to go in, there was no wind blowing.”
When I was a child the expression was, “Anyone can win on any given sunday.” Now it seems like the so called experts have hitched their wagons to a leauge where there is a top tier and a bunch of scrubs. Parody seems to me to be what happens when the competition plays to the level they are capable of. I love it! If I wanted to see a game be 35 to 7 I would play video games. I love when the game gets down to the last two minutes and you STILL can’t tell who will win.
THAT is what competition is about. Not that old crazy shit where the starters are on the sidelines talking shit into the NFL Films cameras. I want a hard fought game, 7 to 3 or 35 to 38 it makes me no difference. When they interview the players and the coaches and they say the standard line about having played a good team… I want to know they fuckin mean it!
Yeah it is strange to see teams that I think aren’t run well, defeating teams I think are. But everyone needs their ass whupped from time to time to keep them in check. So when your team is favored and they loose. Try not to think of it as an upset and more of an asswhuppin’. Afterall, thats what they get paid to do.
I know. I was shocked too. Every game I watched, pro and college, was decieded in the last two minutes. Except that Carolina Panthers game. Im trying to pretend I didnt see that one. It was out of hand by half time and I listened to it in the car on the way to visit my mother in law. Im glad I had to picture it and not actually watch it. So anyway… Like tossing darts in the dark… my picks for week two;
HOU @ Ten Ten -9
NO @ PHI NO -1
ARI @ JAC JAC -1
OAK @ KC OAK -3
CIN @ GB GB -9
MIN @ DET MIN-11
STL @ WAS WAS -11
NE @ NYJ NE -2
CAR @ ATL ATL -11
TB @ BUF BUF -1
SEA @ SF SF -1 (UPSET OF THE WEEK)
BAL @ SD BAL -1
PIT @ CHI PIT -3
CLE @ DEN DEN -11
NYG @ DAL NYG -3
IND @ MIA IND -9
There you go. I wouldn’t bet my money on this so don’t you be a dumbass and bet on it either!
