Rebirth + Divisional round playoff picks

January 13th, 2010

Hear hear!  If we can’t make it for two months, shame on us.  Either way, I’ve re-titled our tag line as “Your #12 source” . . . so we have a better chance of living up to our namesake in case we slack off like before.

Without further ado, I announce my picks for this week’s divisional round playoffs.  These reflect the playoff odds from footballoutsiders.com, which have New Orleans and San Diego as heavy favorites, and Dallas/Minneapolis, and Baltimore/Indy as pick-em’s.  I go with Indy due to 1) home field; 2) Flacco’s injury; and, 3) overblown concerns about the Colts taking off three weeks in a row.  I pick against Dallas, because it’s just too difficult to root for them so long as Jerry Jones is the face of the franchise.  Anyway, here you go:

Sunday Games                                                 My Picks
Arizona at New Orleans (-7)                                  New Orleans
Baltimore at Indianapolis (-6.5)                             Washington
Dallas at Minneapolis (-3)                                   Minneapolis
NY Jets at San Diego (-7)                                    San Diego

Who’s the Man? 9-5 points to this guy.

Wow … can I just say … Wow.  9-5 makes me look like a genius.  Unfortunately most of the rest of my decisions in life make me look like an idiot.  So what will it be this week?  Idiot or genius?

10-6! Um … luck can happen I guess.

September 14th, 2008

Well the biggest surprise last week wasn’t Tom Brady’s injury or Michael Turner making Detroit look like a pop warner football team, but rather the fact that I went 10-6 on my picks.  I hope you listened to me and put all of your life savings on those games.  If you had done that then you would be sitting pretty good this week.  A little tip this week is don’t put all your hard earned money on these picks.  So good luck and hopefully you’re not starting Matt Cassell.
