NFL Picks

(For the record: I did write this about three hours before kickoff but since this site really sucks, it didn't post on my first three tries. Atlanta's losing 14-3. Michael Vick sucks, but I went with my numbers).

There's a couple of hours to Monday Night Football and I'm feeling fine! I'm 5-0 so far for the weekend and tonight Atlanta is my pick. I have them winning by 10.5, and the recent line has them giving four. I may even watch the game even though ESPN has taken over and they're doing their damnedest to wreck a fine tradition. I'm not sure who the jackasses in the booth are, but I'm pretty sure one of them is Joe Theisman. He's taken time off from selling rip-off insurance policies to bore Monday night football watchers to tears. I gotta say, he's one of the worst commentators ever. And the two clowns calling the game with him are almost as useless. I don't suppose there's any chance he'll sustain a compound fracture in the booth and will have to be replaced. One can always hope.
Last night I watched Denver manhandle New England. Did I suggest trying to get a price on them winning out right? Yes, I did! It's three weeks into the season and Jake Plummer seems to have the maturity he should have had three or four years ago. The Denver defense is officially one of the best so I'm staying with my rating for them.
Speaking of Sunday night, Madden and Michaels, the former Monday night team are at least watchable. But who's the asshole that directs the on field cameras? Did that stupid jackass really think I wanted to see a replay of one of Denver's defensive linemen puking on the field? I'm sitting at home watching football, not "Jackass Two". I hope the moron gets fired.
Anyway, I've made up my line for the coming weekend and I can already see some big plays. I need some sort of official line to compare to, but I know what to expect. That'll be up tomorrow. Meanwhile, cash in on Atlanta.
