Well, the 2017 Regular Season is over. It is over! Which is really too bad... I feel like, if I had, 2 more weeks.... Or, maybe, 68 more weeks, I could run down ELUSIVE and take the lead..... I could be wrong about that...
Wow. Feels like a crazy season.... So many upsets early in the season, but then later, it was straight favorites all the way..... HIGHZ is holding a seminar at the Drake Hotel next week, "How to have success by pounding the favorites with unwavering conviction." Anybody going? I have to work, sadly, but it should be fun, if you can attend....
Let's get straight to the congrats here, and stop farting around....
(Let me just say, I cannot type or spell this morning.... this could be a long process. I'm getting a headache already. Okay, aspirin, and coffee, hold on....)
(aaannnd.... okay, that's better)
SEASONS CHAMPIONS
3rd: GREGSLO! Haha! This is actually GREGSLO's Son, but, whatever.... He won it fair and square... Congrats. GREGSLO runs a bar that is actually north of me, which seems insane, because it is insane, but he loves it. Huge snowmobile guy, so, this is the right place, no doubt... His son moved to the southwest. Very smart.
2nd: HIGHZ! Autopicks, for the win! Unreal. I'm shocked that worked, to be honest. Usually, there's enough upsets to torpedo that kind of strategy.... Well done!
1st: ELUSIVE! Ahh yes. He had a big lead, but I got a lot of nervous emails.
Now, ELUSIVE, This young lady will be by with your prize money, as soon as she gets her truck running....
Congrats to our Seasons's Champions! Congrats to everyone who won a week!
We had an actual tie!!! How many tiebreakers does it take?? Obviously one more, at least.... Florida Boys and I, split week 12. My sole moment of brief victory, was a tie, for a week. After my humiliation in the Survivor Pool, all I could muster was a split of one week.... So yeah, FLORIDA BOYS and I can have a laugh about that, how a spilt of week 12, was all we could muster. Haha! Unreal.
To be honest, I was really in "throw in the towel" mode, but I got so many snarky emails from a few of you, I decided to try harder, maybe around week 10, and I was actually climbing the ranks.... FLORIDA BOYS probably isn't happy about that.... He probably wishes you had let the dragon sleep.... He woulda won that week by himself.... Oh well....
Playoffs!!! Playoffs? Don't talk about playoffs.... You kiddin' me?? Playoffs???
Never gets old.... We're gonna talk about playoffs.....
Before we talk about Playoffs, let's take a second, and realize, that we live in a world, where the Minnesota Vikings have a BYE.... What?!?!?! I know, I don't believe it either.... It's craziness. So many Vikings fans up here.... I'm not gonna lie, they're getting pretty haughty, and making a lotta dipshit comments and huge proclamations... A guy was telling me Thursday, this team is gonna win 4 Super Bowls.... Whoa whoa whoa there Sunshine.... Win ONE, okay, then you can run your mouth.... So, pardon me, but, I'm gonna enjoy it when they miss a field goal and lose next week....
Ahem. Anyways....
Tennessee at KC. This afternoon, on ESPN. I love KC in this one. As craptacular as I did in this pool, I did fine in my online action.... I mean, theoretically, if it were legal to place bets on the internet, I would have done fine.... So of course, I would never do that, but if I could, I'd have a pretty substantial amount on KC.... I know, I know, never hitch your wagon to Andy Reid in the playoffs.... I can't help myself. KC is so much better than the Titans, it's not even funny. this week, some Titan player was praising Mariotta, saying he "learned to overcome his coaching". Wait, what? Overcome his coaching??? Hahaha! I've been chuckling about that for 3 days... Overcome his coaching.... I love that, that another player, is not afraid, to just openly say that, and fire a shot across the coaching staff's bow, and thumb his nose.... Overcome his coaching. Yeah, I think this team is a disaster.... Mullarkey supposedly was fired, gonezo, except they're in the playoffs, so they have to wait till Monday to fire him...
Atlanta at the LA Rams. Oh my. This could be a real good game. A few weeks ago, that Philly/Rams game was a great game to watch. Just watching, it felt like the Rams were in control the whole way, but they lost. This could be a great game. I'm gonna watch this one, I'm going to love it, but I'm not betting it.... I love the Rams, but I can't bring myself to bet them....
(Who am I kidding?? By then I'll be drunk, and asleep on my couch, and emotionally destroyed, from watching Andy Reid mismanage the clock at the end of the game and cost me money....)
Tomorrow, Buffalo at Jacksonville. omg, look at this. We ALSO live in a world where the Jacksonville Jaguars are HOSTING a playoff game. FLORIDA BOYS is probably in his truck right now, buying 50 cases of beer, for this one.... And, for the record, good for you, it's been awhile, enjoy it. Blake Bortles. Blake Bortles??? Blake Bortles... Hahaha! I was SO looking forward to betting against Bortles in the playoffs.... And now I can't. I feel like they're gonna comfortably win a low scoring game. Listen, the Jaguars have a big tough D.... I've clowned on The Fraud That Is Eli Manning for years... Go ahead and look it up.... Bortles career numbers are basically Eli Mannings Career numbers. So, if you think Bortles sucks, that's fine, but I don't wanna hear one word about how great Eli Manning is.... and this season, Bortles numbers are a good deal better than Eli Mannings.... So. Am I gonna have to bet on Blake Bortles? I might.... I can't rule it out. Maybe we see how today goes.... Make a decision tomorrow.... I mean, Buffalo.... No. They are not winning this game. Saw a story, "Bills Mafia is going to take over Everbank Field"... Yeah right. People in the Jacksonville Palm Coast Daytona Beach area don't play... They'll be happy to give you a whuppin and send you back to your Mom's basement in frozen upstate New York...
Carolina at New Orleans.... Ohhh boy. I'd love to see the Saints completely house the Panthers, but.... Wow. This is another one, it'll probably be a great game to watch.... Not sure I can bet this one.... Which Cam Newton is going to show up??? Who knows.... The Packers just got totally embarrassed by these guys, when we were in a must win situation.... ugh. Should be a great game. I just cannot recommend a bet on this one....
Before I wrap this up....
Chucky!!! Back to the Raiders?!?!? omg... Ahhh, Coach Gruden.... Who knows if he'll succeed or not... Dick Vermiel and Pete Carroll seem to have done okay....
Jon Gruden, is basically my age, okay. Couple months. Now, if someone put on the table, in front of me, 10 years, $100 million dollars.... I'm taking it. Hahaha! No question. WORST case scenario, worst, is he finishes the last 6 years $60 million sitting on his couch in his very breathtakingly beautiful home outside Tampa.... Uhhh, yeah, I'll take that. Sign me up.
Anyways, enjoy the games!!!!
