Coming out of the foxhole....

Hey, good evening!

I've fallen waaaay behind here obviously, so let's try to catch up a little....

First off, welcome to BRADY01....  another new player.   IN the interest of fairness and full disclosure, the full fee was paid, just like everyone else paid...  Good luck!

Moving along.

Week #2: BULLDOGS RULE won the week.  Very nice!  Congrats!  Younger people who live in Florida apparently have plenty of time to analyze their football picks.....

Week #3: SHARPCHEDDAR wins the week!  Nice job man!  Sharpcheddar is well known to pick a lot of upsets, but when they come in, they come in.....

Week #4: BIG HEADED HOLY ROLLERS wins the week.  Hey, congrats!  Another Florida resident with too much time on his hands.... troubling, to be sure.  He's supposed to be studying something at that college he goes to......  sigh....

Week #5: KCAMOSY!  A new guy, breaking through for his first win....  Congrats!  I did mention that new people can't win their first year, right???  Yeah, so, I get to keep that.....

(Joking.....)

Actually, he stole it from me.  How do the Jets beat Atlanta??  In the Georgia Dome???  With their rookie Quarterback??  Stolen.... I'm telling you.... I was robbed.  He committed the robbery....

Am I to assume that Atlanta and Houston are no longer good???  Am I giving too much credit to last year???  I mean, look, you want to run away during the Playoffs, but they've been very reliable during the regular season......  Until now.....

The Fraud That Is Eli Manning continues to impress.  Some performances for the ages, he's putting in here.  Even Tom Coughlin turned on him in his presser this week.....

Manning has thrown 12 picks in the 5 losses, and also lost 2 fumbles.  His QB rating is sitting on 65.... Even below his pathetic career average....  Statistically, he is still better than Blaine Gabbert, but not by much.....

Not to let the cat out of the bag, but I had to take the Bears tonight.  I can't tell you how much that pained me....  and sitting here knowing Ardita will have the Bears for 16....  Game Theory would dictate that I must also take the Bears for 16....  But I can't do it.  I can't.  But I can't root for the Giants either.....  talk about being stuck between a rock and a hard place.  Cliffs in front of me, and wolves behind....

Now, before someone gets offended, I applaud the NFL's efforts to increase awareness of Breast Cancer.    Certainly a worthy cause.  Myself and The Doc just did a Harley ride, to support the Lady Rider's Breast Cancer Research Foundation.....

That being said, when you see Tom Coughlin's face turning red on the sideline, is that part of the breast cancer thing???  Or does that happen either way???  Just wondering....

News Item: Matt Flynn released by the Raiders.  Whoops!  Wow.  Brought in by 2 different teams, to be the future of their franchise....   And he supposedly will not be back with the Packers, either, or so says Coach McCarthy.....

These Officials are so brutal.... so brutal.  During the Packer game, we got a touchdown called back, that was clearly a touchdown.   Then, to really make it absurd, goofball Mike Pierera comes on, and DEFENDS THE CALL?!?!?  My cell phone almost exploded!  Everyone I know text bombed me to vent their displeasure at the obviously botched call.....  Totally absurd.  Seriously, when do the real referee's come back???  I'm still waiting....  That entire Packer game, horribly officiated throughout.  those guys clearly were fired from the Lingerie Football League....

Anyways, another reminder, set your Autopick Options up on the website!!!  Somebody who shall remain nameless didn't get their picks in on time last weekend....  If you put your own picks in, the autopick does nothing....  If you have no picks in, the autopick goes in, and at least you have SOMETHING.....

Josh Freeman to the Vikings.   Where are they sending Greg Schiano???  Home???  And now that Josh is gone, who will Schiano blame all his problems on????  Questions....

The biggest Point Spread in History... On an NFL Game.  Or, a tie, for the biggest, depending on who you believe....  Denver is a 28 point favorite over Jacksonville.....  An crazy huge point spread in a professional football game. 

Am I tempted to take Jacksonville??   No.  If gambling were legal, I would stay away from that....  Stay away, kids.    Why take Jacksonville when the Arizona Cardinals have been printing money for you all year???  They've been home dogs in several games....

Matt Schaub of the Texans, the first time ever apparently that a QB has thrown a Pick-6 in 4 straight games.  Brutal.  (A pick 6, for those who don't know, is an interception returned for a touchdown by the intercepting player)  Probably just a luck fluky thing, but still, it's troubling.  This guy is supposed to be leading you to the promised land.....

Alright.... In a few minutes, another Football game starts.... the pressure!  I'm telling you.....

Enjoy!
