NFL Week 8 Pick Suggestions

Ugh, I really don't like this weeks spreads that much.

5. Cincinatti Bengals (-4 1/2) vs. Atlanta Falcons

In Ocho Cinco I trust. Probably a dumb move considering this could be a very close game, but I really think its about time that the Bengals go out and score an assload of points. It happened practically every week last year and hasn't happened at all this year. Ocho Cinco is going to score a td this week.

4. New England Patriots (-2 1/2) at Minnesota Vikings

The Patriots are a frontrunner for the Super Bowl this year. Let me repeat once again the Patriots are going to be a team to be reckonned with in January. On Monday night they'll go into the dome, wipe out the Vikings, and then people on sportscenter will proclaim that they played good but they could still use a big time wideout.

3. New York Jets (+1 1/2) at Cleveland Browns

I'm pretty surprised that the Jets are not favored in this game. Its not as if the Browns have done anything this season to deserve being favored in any game that doesn't involve a team from the San Francisco Bay Area. The Jets may not be the best team in the league but they have a much more reliable QB than do the Browns and they don't even need to blow them out.

2. Green Bay Packers (-3 1/2) vs. Arizona Cardinals

I really don't think the Packers are that bad of a team this season. The Cardinals on the other hand have a coach who has a few weeks away from being fired, no offensive line, an injured top wideout, and just lost to the Raiders last week by a lot.

1. New Orleans Saints (-2 1/2) vs. Baltimore Ravens

McNair is questionable and even if he isn't the Saints O is simply ten times better than the Ravens offense. And even though the Ravens are better on D it won't matter. Homefield for the Saints and the chance that they may be facing a team QBed by Kyle Boller is enough for me.

Kansas City (-5 1/2) vs. Seattle ... Avoid this as Huard may not play
Chicago (-16 1/2) vs. San Francisco ... Bounce back for Rex?
New York Giants (-9 1/2) vs. Tampa Bay ... Was going to take TB, changed my mind.
Oakland (+8 1/2) vs. Pittsburgh ... Bad Decision???
Houston (+3 1/2) at Tennessee ... Battle o' dog poo
Philadelphia (-6 1/2) vs. Jacksonville ... Jax have QB and Offense problems
St. Louis (+8 1/2) at San Diego ... Media overhyping A Whale's Vagina
Denver (-2 1/2) vs. Indianapolis ... Peyton no play well in Denver
Carolina (-4 1/2) vs. Dallas ... Romo's ribs in pain

Lou Holtz is the Homer / Annoyingly Delusional

As my buddy Joe and I always joke, if Notre Dame was suiting up against an all Jesus team, aka a team made up of 55 Sons of God, Lou Holtz would probably still pick Notre Dame to win by a touchdown. So of course this weekend when I'm watching Sportscenter and they have him and fellow old man Corso making predictions, Lou picks ND to beat Michigan. Not that big of a deal, Michigan is a big question mark this year, but of course than Lou says that Notre Dame will win 11 games this year. This is the same Notre Dame that lost to a service academy last year. And just when you thought the douchy homerism was going to end ESPN asks which BCS school is going to be the biggest surprise team in the country. Any guesses to whom it was? I'll give you a clue it was another team he coached. If you guessed South Carolina you would be a winner. Next up on Lou's prediction watch, the Jets win the Superbowl, NC St. wins the ACC, Arkansas dominates the SEC West, Minnesota wins the Big...

Guest Post: Thoughts on Sabathia Signing

I asked Grutt what his thoughts were on the Sabathia signing and I thought his response pretty much nailed it. So here it is. I don’t know. Every year I get a little more disenchanted with baseball. Yea, it’s great we signed the top pitching free agent. But we were supposed to. No team was even in the ballpark of the Yankees offer yet they still needed to jump from the already ridiculous price of $140 million to $160 million to close the deal. Now I hear we are going to sign more pitchers who will also get large contracts and the position player gaps are still glaring. Each new, large contract just adds to the feeling that the Yanks are supposed to win it all. “I think we have a good chance this year.” That is a lost feeling. If they don’t win I’ll wonder why, like there has to be some other reason besides that it’s a sport you can never predict how things will work out and some years just aren’t yours to be won. If they win I will be pleasantly smug. It gets a little more...
