Never underestimate the power of Ricky Williams’ lungs – that’s the awkward but unavoidable lesson to be learned from last week’s games, as the Dolphins but a stop to the Panthers mini turnaround and rode Ricky’s legs to victory. Manning stayed perfect, though, thus salvaging another .500 week for me in a crazy year [...]
Stanford held its ground last week, but not by enough to cover the spread, marking my first correct prediction of the week. I told everyone it was your best chance at an upset, so hopefully some of you listened. However, I wasn’t so luck with the Notre Dame game. Man, if they [...]
So many weeks down, so many running backs went with them. Hey, at least Larry Johnson landed on his feet, right? Just something about him going to the Bengals feels just right. And if we continue to get games like the Pats/Colts thriller (big Bill stupidity aside), the NFL season might just [...]
Penn State covered, Wisconsin covered, and somehow Missouri destroyed Kansas State. Where was that Tigers team all year? Who is Danario Alexander you ask? Try 200-yard receiver for Mizzou. So, almost no big surprises. Tack 2-1 on to my running tally and I’m 15-8 on the year. I’m determined [...]
I continue my theme this week of .500 predictions into the NFL, although I can’t really take much credit for calling the Arizona game. Still don’t know what the oddsmakers were thinking on that one, but it was incredibly obvious and unfair. As for the Giants, I thought I’d give their talent some [...]
How about that, Bama just covers the spread, as I predicted, behind just enough offense and just enough defense to keep the talented LSU Tigers at bay. Can’t blame the Tigers for the loss against the team many consider to be the best in the nation. Unfortunately for me, Purdue decided to wear [...]
I won’t talk about my fantasy team other than to say I don’t even have enough RB’s to start this week. I’m shocked I’m 4-4. Anyway, the NFL is more of a different story. Not much middle ground in my opinion. You have a nice echlon of great teams, and then [...]
Well, Wisconsin and Florida covered last week, no big surprises there. Man, what happened to KU? You take a chance on an up-and-coming (or so I thought) program and they really find a way to tank it. You can bet the Jayhawks are all focused on basketball these days. And look [...]
