No rambling introduction today, folks, just wonderful picks – and we’re not just sticking to one sport either!
The home teams are in CAPS and the lines are from 5Dimes.
Detroit +1 over DALLAS
The Cowboys are still banged up and they failed to score a TD last week. Field goals won’t get it done against Detroit.
New Orleans [...]
I cannot remember the last time I was this excited about a five-minute window in sports. Last night’s regular-season finales between the Red Sox-Orioles and Yankees-Rays combined for what was simply just one of the best electrifying moments in recent sports history. If you were watching the ends to those games, [...]
Major League Baseball could have asked for a better regular-season finale than this. After 161 exhausting games, both the American and National Leagues have ties in their wild card races.
While they have the easiest path to the playoffs, facing the Baltimore Orioles on the last night of season, the Boston Red Sox freefall might be [...]
So let me get this straight: Last week, Tony Romo led his team on a marvelous come-from-behind victory while playing with a cracked rib and a punctured lung. This past Sunday, Michael Vick sat on the sidelines, watching his team lose because he had a bruised non-throwing hand? You have to be kidding me.
These guys [...]
It might be the worst thing that happens in almost every sport in the world. It is something that is universally reviled. It is something that every fan and non-fan alike despises from the bottom of their hearts. And it happened on prime time during Monday Night Football.
Not one, but two New [...]
Is it just me, or does it seems like there are more injuries, especially to legs and knees, than usual this season?
Every time I look at the ticker, it seems that someone else has torn their ACL. Just this week we had the Chiefs’ top running back Jamaal Charles blow out his knee while running [...]
Since I’m in the middle of wedding season, I’ll save you all the spiel about how amazing Tom Brady is for torching the Dolphins defenceless defence and how ridiculous it was that in both leagues I’m in, the same guy that has Brady has Wes Welker and the two of them combined for a preposterous [...]
It was really nice of the Dallas Cowboys to let New Yorkers have a little moment of happiness on the tenth anniversary of 9/11. That’s the only reason why I think that Tony Romo would decide to throw a pass directly at all-world corner Darrelle Revis late in the fourth quarter.
It was the first time [...]
The 2011 season got out to a beautiful start with two amazing offensive displays and a crucial goal line stand with time expiring by Green Bay to keep the defending champions from having to possibly go to overtime. The only thing you can really take away from Thursday night’s slugfest is that either of those [...]
First of all, let’s get to tonight’s big game in Green Bay and my pick, then to our NFC season preview.
GREEN BAY -4 over New Orleans.
Look, I really like the Saints chances this season and even have them making the Super Bowl, but since the defending champions started hosting the opening Thursday night [...]
