I saw the game just like most of you did, but I am still not sure that it happened.  I have to say it was one of the best Super Bowls I have seen, which dates back to the 1983 match up of the Redskins and the Dolphins.  I wrote yesterday of the calamity that […]

Most people think it is ludicrous to even consider the idea that the Giants could beat the Patriots in today’s Super Bowl.  I don’t think it to be that ludicrous, though I don’t think it will happen.  But just for a moment, let’s ponder the idea and its aftermath.

It looks as if all the coaching vacancies could be filled by the time the Super Bowl rolls around.  The NFL is not as bad as the NBA and the MLB in simply regurgitating coaches, but they are pretty close.  This year though, we have some new names, even some names that not many people have really […]

After splitting last week’s picks, yours truly is sitting pretty with a 6-2 for the extra season.  With 3 games to go I’m guaranteed to be above .500 which burns the blood of my brothers, close friends and my girlfriend Betty.  Actually, they don’t care one bit because they’re not among my loyal nine readers.  But I digress.   This weekend’s […]

(9-7) Washington at (10-6) Seattle -3½
Seattle is 7-1 at home/ Washington 4-4 on the road
Even though Washington has been one of the hottest teams in the league heading into the playoffs, I believe there run will come to an end. The inspiration of Sean Taylor wont be enough this week alone […]

Great time of year.  All of the fantasy nerds get shoved aside for some real hardnosed meaningful football (actually I did see a commercial for playoff fantasy football, but I’m not ready for that quite yet - if ever). 
Wild Card Weekend is always a treat — and especially this year because 3 out of the 4 match-ups […]
