Picks n' Stuff

Last week: 9-7
Overall: 30-32-1
 
NYG (-7), Was (+6), SD (-6.5), KC (+9.5), Bal (-3), Ind (-3), Chi (-3.5), GB (NL), Den (-3), Cin (+17), Buf (Ev), NE (-3), Jax (-4), NO (-3)
 
It was bound to happen at some point that CC's arm would fall off.  It sucks that it happened in the playoffs.  The only real bright spot has been the bullpen.  Of course, that means Bush will pitch well tomorrow, and the bully will get rocked.  Corey Hart makes me miss Gabe Gross and Kevin Mench.  Is Dante Bichette available to play right?  The real difference between Philly and Milwaukee was in the 1st and 2nd last night.  Brewers load the bases with one out, and Hart comes up, when Myers had just walked two straight guys on like 9 pitches, and he swings at the first pitch and slowly rolls it to the mound for an easy double play.  Philly comes up in the second in the same situation, works the count, and destroys a grand slam.  Game. Over.  The only silver lining here (besides the one I'm writing about next) is that I may get to watch the Packer game in peace on Sunday if there is no Brewer game.
 
Can I say again how sweet Cubs fans tears taste?  I personally like to dribble some in my coffee and dip a cruller in it.  I mean they got their fucking asses kicked, twice, at home!  Oh it is beautiful.  If this happened to the Yankees (and it has), I would have no doubt they would win the next three and win the series.  But its the Cubs, so they will probably win both games in LA and come home and lose in terrific fashion.  A girl can hope.
 
Two big football games in the state this weekend.  I know, on paper the Packer game looks gay, but its a Packer game and they are all big so shut the fuck up.  Burner Turner will run for somewhere around 2 bills on our "defense".  If Matty Flynn starts, my prediction is 13-10 Falcons.  If Rodgers starts, I'm going 21-13 Pack.
 
Bucky hosts THE Ohio State University Saturday night, in a game that would have been alot bigger had they not pissed one down their legs (and mine) at Michigan.  UW often beats OSU in Madison when they aren't very good.  I think UW is at least above average.  I say 24-23 UW.  But I'm on crack so don't listen to me.
 
I just happened to see that the #2 (South Florida) team in my poll lost at home last night, and the #3 (Utah) team barely won. Huh.

It's about time something happened to stop your love affair with the Mormons... Just because you know one doesn't mean Utah and BYU deserve extra votes in your mind

That's why he was brought into the fold, to patch up these voids in the blogging world

I was brought in because you knew you and "Loaf Cobra" (who hasn't posted in like two months by the way) were fucking lazy, and wouldn't do much.

That's kind of what I was implying by my first comment

I patched up your mom's void last night.
