RIP Ron Santo.
I’m glad we didn’t get the ‘22 World Cup. The last thing I need on my 35th birthday is a “trendy” (read: crappy) soccer ball as a present.
Everybody Loves Bron
Oh, wait, no they don’t. An entire city (metropolitan population 2,250,781 according to Wikipedia) is furious at the world’s most talented basketball player. The first- or second- most significant basketball player of this century (depending on what you think of Kobe) is loathed to a point previously unknown in sports history.
Imagine if, after losing the 1986 World Series, Cy...

18-13 picking NFL games the last two weeks. Do I get a street named after me yet?
RIP Leslie Nielsen. Now that you’re dead, don’t ever let me catch you in America.
How'd I Do? (Version TWO)
So, a quick recap: Last week I went 9-6 in picking NFL games, and with a great Thanksgiving day, I am already at 3-0 heading into the meat of the Week 12 NFL schedule.

SNSS Tonight
I’ll be hosting the Saturday Night Sports Special tonight on 98.3 WOW FM from 10pm-midnight!
I normally only host every other week, but the other bi-weekly host Trent Condon had a last-second family emergency so I am filling in this evening. Our thoughts and prayers go out to Trent’s family, and hopefully everything with his family works out well.

Yes!
Nailed all three of my NFL picks (winners-wise) today. So now I’m 12-6 on the season, which I hear is good. :)
All 3 NFL games have teams w/ mirror records: DET (2-8) vs. NE (8-2); NYJ (8-2) vs. CIN (8-2); and NO (7-3) vs. DAL (3-7). 1st time ever?
I’m leading the nationwide Lucky 7 at UPicksCenteral.com! 2nd in the Midwest in overall score.
Jay Pharoah!

- Obama (seriously, he NEEDS to be Obama on SNL. I have the over-under on episodes before he is the new Obama at 6)
- Jay...

Brett Favre is my Four Loco
I’ve grown fond of calling Brett Favre “Four Loco.” Look at the similarities:
- Both are very fun and exciting.
- Both are exhilerating and full of energy.
- I’ve seen pictures of people holding both.
- Just when you think it’s the most fun, both can potentially kill you using the same methods and characteristics that cause them to be fun and exciting in the...
How'd I Do?
So, at the end of last night’s show, I predicted scores for ALL 15 of the NFL games this weekend. With all but one of those games now finalized, I’ll be posting my predicted scores along with the REAL scores to let you know how accurate (or toooooootally off-base) I was.
Bills vs. Bengals
My prediction: Bengals 28, Bills 21
Actual score: Bills 49, Bengals 31
Lions vs. Cowboys
