With one week remaining in the regular season, the playoff teams are locked up in the AFC, with the final order of things yet to be determined. In the NFC, things are a bit crazier, with eight teams still in the race. As much as we all hate predictions, we all still make them, so […]

This is a strange season indeed. With three weeks remaining in the regular season, only New England and Dallas were guaranteed playoff berths, and only the Patriots had locked up their division. Seattle joined that party after beating the hapless Lambs this past Thursday, but the playoff picture as a whole is still wide open. […]

Quick. What’s the first thing you thought of when you read that headline? Was it something like “this guy must have given up on the Arizona Cardinals”? I could understand it if it was. But you’d be wrong. What I really meant was “why are all of these so-called expert talking heads crowning the Seattle […]

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 […]

If you’re anything like me, congratulations. But you’re also sick to death of all of the preseason predictions for divisional winners, conference winners and even Super Bowl winners. They began pouring in just after last February’s Super Bowl, and they haven’t stopped since. The idea that anyone, with any degree of credibility and accuracy, can […]

Alright, my undefeated streak ended last week when KC couldn’t make the magic happen in Santa Clara (for those of you that are scratching your head and trying to figure what NFL team is from Santa Clara, Google the 49ers new stadium!). However, having picked eight of the past nine games correctly, I’m still feeling […]

Here we go again. The first week of projections, I wasn’t very good. Last week, I was sweating it early, but finished up okay (not great), with two out of three correct. If I had only trusted my gut, and not been afraid of being called a homer for picking the Cardinals, I would have […]

SUPER BOWL — WHY THE GIANTS WON
Wow, what a game! I was lucky enough to have been in great company while watching the Super Bowl. My better half and some very close friends. We were all glued to the TV until the very last second, just like the 113,000,000 other viewers that were not in Indianapolis on Sunday. Funny thing, though. […]

SUPER BOWL — AND THE WINNER IS…
I guess I can’t put this off any longer. The big game’s tomorrow and I’ve been reminded (okay, threatened) several times over the past couple of days that I haven’t made my prediction yet. The big kick in the hind quarters came only moments ago when a close friend of mine made reference to this […]

I decided to wait an extra day to talk about Sunday’s games because I didn’t want it to appear that I was eager to gloat. You see, I’m not the kind of guy that goes around bragging when I’m right. So the last thing I want to do is start pointing out the things that […]
