On the course!
This guy posts his pro picks over at a site that has nothing to do with sports. He started doing it with week one, and actually had a good week. Since then, he has been absolute shit!


I was going to post his crap last week, but didn't. Here's the poop:

Week 8:


Cincinnati..........................(-9.0) Hey, the opposition is Green Bay... LOSS

Carolina............................(-7.5) The way Mike Tice conducted himself during the post game conference last Sunday, one would have thought that the Vikings won the superbowl. You just beat Green Bay Mike.- WIN

Cleveland.........................(+1.5) Yikes - LOSS

Kansas City.......................(+6.0) A field goal should decide this game. LOSS

Tampa Bay.......................(-10.5) Who is Ken Dorsey ??? LOSS


1-4


--------------------------------------

Week 7


Arizona.........................(-4.5) Arizona is at home. WIN

Indianapolis..................(-15.5) Will Houston score in this game.? WIN

Washington..................(-13.5) When it comes to parity, the 49er's do not qualify... WIN

Buffalo.........................(+3.0) Oakland hasn't scored more than 20 points in a single game. I can't see their defense holding Buffalo to less tha 17 points. LOSS

Green Bay/Minnesota......OVER (46.5) Minnesota made Chicago look like an offensive powerhouse last week. A coin flip will be required to determine the winner of this game... LOSS


Hey.....a winning week! 3-2

4-6 overall



----------------------------------------------

Week 6


Chicago....................(-3.0) WIN

Cincinnati.................(-3.0) The Bengals proved that they are for real after nearly beating the Jags... WIN

Cleveland.................(+6.0) For some reason this team does not get any respect.LOSS

Miami.......................(+4.5) These 2 teams always play close games. LOSS

Atlanta/New Orleans..OVER (43.5) WIN


3-2!! Dude's on fire!

Overall stands at 7-8


---------------------------------------------------

Week 5:


Chicago......................(+3.0) This game will put an insomniac to sleep. I will give it to the better defense. LOSS

Green Bay..................(-3.0) Green Bay will win their first game of the season. Believe it or not. WIN

St. Louis.....................(-3.0) Both teams here are coached by a couple of clowns. I will give it to the home bozo. LOSS

Indianapolis................(-16.0) I think this is where Indie breaks out. By the way, this game does not require a coin flip. WIN

Cincinnati...................(+3.0) Cincinnati taking points.? This is a gift.PUSH

Indianapolis/San Fransisco........OVER (47.5)LOSS


2-3

overall slides to 9-11


---------------------------------------


Week 4:


Jacksonville.........................(-4.0) This is a Monday night factor coupled with a semi crappy Denver team. LOSS

Cincinnati............................(-9.5) Houston has done nothing thus far to warrant a consideration. LOSS

Tampa Bay..........................(-6.5) LOSS

Washington..........................(-2.0)WIN

New York Jets.......................(+7.0) This game should be decided by a field goal. Flip a coin if you are looking for a straight up winner. LOSS

Arizona................................(-2.5) Should Arizona go (0-4) with a home loss to the lowly 9er's..??? - I wouldn't want to be their head coach.. WIN

New York Jets/Baltimore............OVER (31.5) I always take the OVER on < 35 totals. LOSS

2-5.....tough slide there.

Overall slips to 11-16


------------------------------------------

Week 3:


Philadelphia...............................(-7.5) Oakland is trying. Bringing Randy Moss to the team was a big mistake. LOSS

Cincinnati..................................(-3.0) WIN

New Orleans..............................(+3.5) Why is Minnesota favored here.? LOSS

Indianapolis...............................(-13.5) This one does not warrant an explanation. Enough said... LOSS

Cleveland/Indianapolis.................OVER (46.5) - LOSS

NY Giants...................................(+5.5) San Diego should never be favoured by these many points. LOSS

Kansas City................................(+3.0) Wrong team favoured here. LOSS


I usually stay away from parlays but, I can't resist this one.

2 team parlay.... LOSS

Indianapolis..........................(-13.5)
Cleveland/Indianapolis..........OVER (46.5)


OUCH! 1-7 aint making you no friends!


12-23 overall



------------------------------------------


Week 2:


Jacksonville.................................(+9.0) WIN

Cincinnati....................................(-3.0) WIN

Seattle........................................(-1.0)WIN

Arizona........................................(-1.0) LOSS

New York Jets...............................(-6.0) WIN

Kansas City..................................(-1.0) WIN

Atlanta/Seattle..............................OVER (40.5) LOSS


HUBBA HUBBA! 5-2

overall at 17-25



-------------------------------------


Week 1:


Chicago..................(+5.5) WIN

Cincinnati...............(-3.5) WIN

Houston.................(+5.5) LOSS

Carolina.................(-7.0) LOSS

Tennessee/Pittsburgh..........OVER (40.5) WIN


3-2

overall 20-27






Well, there you have it. The guy is a basic square, but he doesn't ever "go on a roll". He does tend to have weeks where he gets beat up, though. I figure that he will have his 3-4....3-5.....4-3 weeks for the most part, but he will grace us with a week or two of only one or two wins!

Here's thsi weeks bounty:



Cleveland........................(-3.0)

Kansas City.....................(-4.5) For some unknown reason, the Raiders are getting too much respect after beating a stiff like Tennessee. -

NY Giants.......................(-11.0) The 49er's are on an emotianal high, after beating Tampa... -

New Orleans...................(+3.0) Laying points with Chicago.?...

Carolina.........................(-1.5) Bunch of stiffs them Tampa Bay Bucs.. John Gruden is got to be the most over-rated coach in the NFL...

New York Giants/San Francisco......OVER (42.5)

The irony seems to be that when he doesn't have his comments next to his play, it seems to do better! The more he "writes" about a game, the more often he loses it!

Using that theory, he should win with Cleveland and the total on the Giants game.

Using his "past verbage" against him.......the teams most likely to lose today should be his KC and N.O plays.

Gruden may be a good coach but he is a very poor personnel guy. I can only think of three good personnel moves he's made since coming to Tampa.
