these guys suck

here are the records for the so-called ESPN football experts. Now this is straight up, not even against the spread. This is pretty pathetic if you ask me, btw, they all picked KC tonight.

Theismann 7-5
Salisbury 12-1
Hoge 10-3
Jaworski 10-3
Schlereth 9-4
Allen 8-5
Mortensen 6-7
Golic 9-4

Through Week 3
Theismann 21-21
Salisbury 30-14
Hoge 28-16
Jaworski 25-19
Schlereth 24-20

Salisbury 30-14

granted they get paid for this stuff, and as a whole television analysts aren't better than anyone else. But I would hazard to guess if every mj'er here picked every game straight up from week one through today that less than 5% would have this good a record. And I certainly wouldn't be one of them.

BDB, yes he is 30-14, which is after a 12-1 week, which meant he was 18 -13, which is pretty good, but some of the guys are barely 50%.

I would disagree with picking in the long run. I have been in pickem pools for a number of years (probably 10-12) and I think only 2 times have I been under 50%.

I would just think for the inside knowledge that these guys supposidly have, you would think their % would be higher

As TV analysts go, check out Solomon Wilcots on NFL Network (cable/Dish/Directv). He's on a show called Playbook...doesn't make picks per se...he gives you the Xs and Os...calls out the winners every week...

This week he was talking up NE, Cin, Cle, and TB. Went 3-1. Good stuff!

I know it is early, but in our work pool 48 out of 51 people are above 54% (with 27 hitting above 62%). Now, most of the people have no clue about games or capping.... many are just in it because everyone does it. Maybe knowing too much can actually hurt.
