Back by popular demand. Or so the voices in my head insist.
Welcome back, NFL football fans. This is now the fourth consecutive year in which I have committed myself to picking every single NFL regular season game. I pick the winners straight-up, without taking the spread into account (although I do offer my best guess as to what the margin of victory will be). My goal, as always, is to beat ESPN's NFL "experts" at their own game.…

RJ - Thursday night's game was good for me...not so good for my friends here in VA that happen to be Redskins fans...
The G-men started out strong, but then the offense kinda sputtered down in the red zone...D looked good though, in spite of the retirements and injuries!

One mroe thing...is it just me, or are there actually Olberman fans out there? Now I have to listen to him on Sunday nights too? I heard and saw him on TV last night. I was surprised that he didn't have anything to say about O'reilly in between calling out scores!
All I can say to that is, I hope the Giants don't have a lot of Sunday night games.

A little something I put together and hung up today for the ever so recently overbearing "boston" fans.

Andy,
I guess the guy is popular in some quarters. (I'll bet he's a sensation in Pyongyang and Waziristan.) He even made a cameo appearance on "The Soup" a few weeks ago. So it seems he has successfully infiltrated all the important aspects of my life: sports, politics, and now inane cable television programs as well. :-/

That was a tough week. Just need 3 game this week.
How about Lions +3 (home dogs) vs Pack
Bears +3 at Carolina
Ravens +4.5 at Houston (Texans a favorite?).
Also Chargers -2 at Denver (Monday night jinx).
Let me know you opinions !!!

Seriously, Olberman is way too obsessed with O'Reilly. The more he attacks him the more I wonder about Olberman. Ok, we get it. Move on. I doubt fixing the democracy begins with O'Reilly.
It got so tired and lame after the 112th time on the old Dan Patrick show.
I went 11-5. I gave myself the Giants pick because I don't lie. ;<)
