Okay, I’m back after a self-imposed exile last week. And no, it wasn’t because I was still exhausted after that Cardinals – Seahawks battle in week seven, although that did leave me out of breath for a couple of days. We took the grandkids to the pumpkin patch for the day, and that always comes […]


Just when I think I’m figuring out this wonderful thing we call the National Football League, I get thrown a major curve ball. (I know, I know, great metaphor – wrong sport. Deal with it!) Through the first four weeks of the season, I couldn’t pick an upset to save my life, even though they […]


This has to be one of the strangest first quarters of football in NFL history. Usually the upsets begin to subside after the first two weeks, and the teams that should win begin to find ways to do just that. And in the AFC, things are playing out pretty much as expected, for the most […]


Considering that I’ve only made one post over the last 2 ½ months, you would have thought I’d slipped into hibernation mode. After all of the weird, stupid or just plain unbearable things that have gone on in that time, I kind of wished I’d had. Unfortunately, I’ve had to endure the same ridiculous stories […]

Once again, New England kept me from a perfect record last week.  You’d think by now I’d learn to keep them out of my picks.  But nooooooooo!  (A little Belushi humor, there!)  So I guess the safe thing to do would be to stay as far from the Patriots as I can this week.  That […]


Wow!  Talk about a roller coaster last week.  In a matter of minutes, I went from a 1-2 week to a 3-0 week, thanks to collapses by the Cowboys and the Steelers. In all honesty, I shouldn’t be all that surprised.  The Steelers are a mere shell of the mighty teams they have put together […]


Hey, I was three for three last week.  Whoo-hoo!  If I can get the Upset of the Week right this week, I’ll be back to .500 or better in all three categories.  It’s almost beginning to sound like I know what I’m talking about. I said ‘almost’!  And keep those comments to yourself, will ya’? […]
