NFL Week 6 Awards

Wow You Guys Suck: St. Louis Rams, At the beginning of the season there were a bunch of experts who believed that the Rams might take the NFC West. After 6 weeks the only thing they may be taking is the #1 one pick in the draft. Runners Up: Where's the Vaunted Cincy Offense, The Falcons have no Offense Whatsoever

Cough Cough Cough: The New York Jets, 2nd and 1 from the 4 down 7 points with under 4 minutes to play. Exectuion of any play puts you in the endzone regardless of poor play calling. Instead the Jets could not execute. Run with Thomas Jones no blocking 3rd and 1. QB sneak, no push on the line 4th and 1. Fade Route under thrown, game over. Runners Up: TO the Patriots enjoyed their post game popcorn.

This Scarecrow Needs a Brain: Brian Schottenheimer and Eric Mangini, I don't really need to elaborate this point as I already have. When you need one yard and your running back has 130, pound the rock. Runners Up: Brad Childress is lucky Purple Jesus only needs 20 carries to destroy the Bears, Give Purple Jesus the rock, Vince Young should not have agreed to the Madden Cover.

The Shocker: Vinny Testaverde, Last weekend he wasn't on a roster and was probably just throwing the football around the backyard. The following sunday somehow he's starting for an NFL football team and winning. Raise your hand if you thought Vinny was going to win a football game this season. Runners Up: Tampa Bay has a big lead in the NFC South after 6 weeks, Cleveland is 3-3, what the hell.

The Pimp: Purple Jesus, It's doubtful that there will be a better case this season for anyone to strap a team on their back as much. I'm just glad Purple Jesus only faced the Jets during the preseason else he might have rushed for 400 yards. Runners Up: LT hates playing the Raiders he always struggles to a limited 4 touchdowns, Tom Brady look at me I have 21 touchdowns in 6 games.

You Got JAKKED UP: Brittle Kurt, Kurt Warner got knocked out of an NFL game. Surprise Surprise.

My Fantasy MVP: Purple Jesus, I do enjoy the fact that I drafted Purple Jesus in both of my leagues this year. Too bad in one league I was facing an LT Brady combo and got crunched anyway.

New York Jets MVP: Thomas Jones, enough on the negatives of the Jets. I've already slaughtered them twice during this post. I'll give some love to Thomas who for the first time this season looked like an excellent accusition in running for 130.

My Picks

My Picks: 7-6
Preseason Picks: 10-3
Picks Vs. Spread: 8-5

Pretty weird how my preseason picks were that much better than my actual picks this week. Not sure if that makes much sense.

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...
