Will This Be The Worst Super Bowl Ever?

January 21st, 2008 · No Comments

I was all set to enjoy a showdown between Brett Favre and Tom Brady, and then those damn New York Giants had to go and mess up my day.  Now we are all stuck with what will probably be the worst Super Bowl ever.  I know that the Giants gave New England all they could handle […]

5 Things to Look for on Championship Sunday

January 18th, 2008 · No Comments

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 […]

Bender’s Take on Wild Card Weekend

January 4th, 2008 · 1 Comment

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 […]

First off, in my opinion, Philip Rivers is highly overrated and Head Coach Norv […]

10 “Good” NFL teams we can now write off

November 19th, 2007 · No Comments

In reality, by the looks of things we might be able to write off the entire league.  The
Patriots have been that good.  It’s getting comical how quickly these games become unwatchable because of the
Pats dominance. 
But you never do know, that’s why they play the games, right?  We all know the Raiders, Rams and Jets are […]
