NFL Week 10 Awards

This shall be short but sweet because it's a day late.

Wow You Guys Suck: The Lions, Bring back Orlovsky. Runners Up: Jake Delhomme 7-27 for 4 INTs?, the Raiders the opposing QB had that line and you still lost comfortably.

This Scarecrow Needs a Brain: Andy Reid, You are not a power running team. Get it in your fucking head. Runners Up: the 49ers entire offensive staff, anyone who said the Colts were dead.

Cough Cough Cough: Cleveland Browns, You had the chance to get back in the thick of things and you choked. Runners Up: The Pack could not stop Peterson, the Herminator could not get that 2 point conversion.

The Shocker: Kerry Collins, I really didn't know he could still throw for over 200 yards. Runners Up: the Dolphins are in position to make a playoff push, Flacco and Matty Ice have a better record than Peyton Manning.

The Pimp: Kurt Warner, Old man just might win the MVP. Runners Up: ToGo apparently still has something in the tank, Cutler wanted to throw for nearly 500 yards on thursday night.

You Got Jakked Up: Joe Kemp, That looks painful.

My Fantasy MVP: Meaningless Hail Mary, Ya I lost by that exact f'n margin.

New York Jets MVP: Thomas Jones, 150 yards and 3 tds is beast worthy.

My Picks

My Picks: 9-5
Preseason Picks: 9-5
Picks Vs. Spread: 8-6

Mediocre week but at least back on the positive side. The Lions covered yet again.

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?

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...
