Great game last night between two of the top-four teams in the league and who would’ve ever thought that Aaron Rodgers could actually keep his team in the game after Favre was hurt? I certainly didn’t but was pleasantly surprised by the former first-round pick.
VIKINGS (-3.5) over Detroit
With Adrian Peterson back at least for part-time [...]

The Green Bay vs. Dallas match up tonight will be the deciding factor over home-field advantage for the NFC this season. We could very well see the winner of this game finishing 15-1 while the loser finishes 14-2. That’s a) how good these two teams are and b) how bad the NFC might be.
Since I [...]

Taylor, 24, known for having been linked to questionable conduct off the field and hard-hitting play on it, had been at shot in his Florida house after an apparent home-invasion. The bullet that hit Taylor in the leg severed [...]

I’ll tell you this much: had I known that the weather and conditions in Pittsburgh would’ve been as bad as they were, I would never have picked them to cover a 16-point spread. But that’s what you get for selecting games days in advance.
An amazing thing did happen though, the game went deep into the [...]

So where was running up the score and saying “F you!” to the league last night? When Brady got down on his knee to run the clock and end the game it was more symbolic than any Patriots fan will realize and hey, they nearly lost at home to AJ Feeley and an under-.500 Eagles [...]

After going 2-0 on Thanksgiving Thursday, I’m looking forward to getting gutted on the rest of my picks for week 12. How about that optimism eh?
BEARS (-1.5) over Broncos
Who’s running the ball for these Broncos? That concerns me more than who’s throwing the ball for the Bears. Go Sexy Rexy!
Titans (-1.5) over BENGALS
This should be [...]

Every fan who wanted to see some good, one-sided football must’ve been thankful for yesterday’s first two match ups. Starting the day off was old-man Favre and the youngest team in the NFL lighting up Ford Field in Detroit, beating the Lions 37-26. Brett also showed, once again, that this season he’s not going to [...]

After suffering another injury to his neck, Priest Holmes has retired from the NFL just a few games into his comeback. Holmes will always be remembered as a fantasy juggernaut after posting huge numbers running behind great offensive linemen Willie Roaf and Will Shields for years, not to mention blocking fullback extraordinaire, Tony Richardson — [...]

Fans of the Gilbert Arenas. the Washington Wizards and basketball in general took a blow yesterday when Agent Zero went under the knife and had two different surgeries on his banged up left knee. He’s expected to be out for three months.
This leaves the Wizards in a bit of a bind. Even in the [...]

So, predictably, Alex Rodriguez took home the American League MVP award on Monday, yet somehow didn’t manage to get all 28 first places votes like he rightfully should have. Magglio Ordonez pried the final two votes away from A-Rod and while he did deserve to finish second in voting, there should have been no comparison [...]
