NFL Picks

It's over. The NFL season officially ended today and I, like millions of other people, didn't bother watching the Pro Bowl. I can already give you two picks for next season.
Take the points and whoever is playing the Colts, and take the Bears and give or take whatever points the line puts up. How can I do that you may ask. It's like this:

After the Super Bowl, no coach worth his job isn't going to realize that you have to pressure Manning all the fucking time. He won't be able to throw that "long ball" while he's scrambling. Besides, the really crappy teams won't have anything to lose and the better ones will know that.
On the other hand, the Bears looked so stupid in the Super Bowl that not even Lovie "Jackass" Smith will try and out think himself. Whoever the Bears play will get their ass kicked by a very angry defense and if "Wrecks" Grossman is still throwing the ball, he can't possible be as bad as he was in the "Big Game". If Lovie gets medicated properly during the off season, Feely may be starting. Either way, the offense is only going to need a few points to win. Besides, the oddsmakers know everyone's going to remember the Super Bowl debacle and under rate the Bears.
In the meantime, here's another website you can go to during the off season. Click on this! If nothing else, you see pictures of chicks in bikinis!

The Bears blew a 14 point lead and finished out of the money Sunday. On offense they appeared to have a game plan, but what the fuck were they thinking on defense? Did Lovie "jackass" Smith buy into all the media hype that the Bears defense was losing something? Seems like it since he took his head out of his ass long enough to develop a scheme whereby Chicago's pass defense would prevent the big play while constantly giving up the shorter plays. Sure, give a team 6 or 7 yards per play as long as you don't give up the 70 yard "bomb". Hey jackass, 10 yards is a first down. That means they get to start over again! Did you notice when the Colts got into the "red zone" they had a harder time moving the ball? When your linebackers couldn't drop back 30 yards they ended up right where they were supposed to be. Awww, fuck it. I could criticize the game planning all day, but when "Wrecks" Grossman can't control the ball who cares how you play defense. The Bears didn't cover and should have been embarrassed even worse then they were, but Tony Dungy appears to be a truly "class" guy and decided not to rub it in.
Wait until next year!

The biggest gambling event of the year is going off in a few hours and I've managed to avoid most of the hype. For the last two weeks the gambling community has been trying to move the money on to the Bears. Almost all the bits and pieces of information I've been getting have been subtle implications that the Colts may not be up to par for the Big Game. First it was Peyton Manning's thumb. Then they had a few possible injuries. Now, they're bitching about the weather. A subtle attempt to say maybe the Colts won't be as effective in an open air stadium then they would be in the comfort of a dome. Here's the weather update I just read:

Super Bowl Forecast: Wet, Windy
Feb 3, 2:57 PM (ET)

MIAMI (AP) -The Super Bowl may be wetter - and windier - than players and fans might like.

Brisk winds of 10 mph to 20 mph and a temperatures in the mid- to upper-60s are forecast for Sunday along with scattered showers throughout the day.

"It's going to make it feel cooler than it will actually turn out to be," Dan Dixon, a meteorologist for the National Weather Service, said Saturday.



Are they fucking kidding? Temperatures in the mid to upper 60's? Ten to 20 mph winds? I don't know where you live, but that sounds like a pretty good day for football to me. But will the wind effect the Colts passing game? Hmmmm. Maybe I should go with the Bears! Oh yeah, I already did. The line dropped half a point. It's now Indianapolis - 6 1/2. There will be no "pushes" on this Super Bowl! (Yeah, that's right, I used the copyrighted name of the "Big Game"! Come and get me NFL). That can only mean one thing. Lots of money on the Colts. The Bears cover and the books net a massive profit. Press your bet.
