- NCAAF Roundup/Picks: Bama over LSU.... I have no faith in LSU's offense at all... Bama has a better coach, a better QB, and a better run game... done and done.. Ohio State over Penn State... This one took me a minute, but this is the time of year that OSU usually turns it on...and I love their defense vs. the fairly vanilla PSU attack... 2 upset picks: Nebraska over Oklahoma, and Oregon State over Cal... just saying
- NFL Big game picks: Bears over Cards.... I just don't trust Warner on the road after last week's stinker... Bengals over Ravens.... People keep sleeping on Cincy, that D is legit and Benson is an elite runner... Chargers over Giants... I think it gets worse for NYG before it gets better...bad matchup vs. a dynamic offense, I'd play Sproles alot if I was Norv...but of course he's Norv... Eagles over Cowboys.... Donovan goes nuts here...and Miles Austin comes back to earth... and finally, Steelers over Broncos.... I've been on the Bronco bandwagon..but I don't think this is a good matchup for Orton at all
Other stuff....
- The Hawks laid an egg in the worst way in Charlotte on Friday... a 20 point loss is unacceptable in itself...but allowing 103 points to the league's worst offense (including 5 guys in double figures led by freaking Raja Bell with 24) is incomprehensible...
- New Orleans isn't good..... and I feel bad for CP3....he had 21 points, 18(!!) dimes, and 7 boards....and they lost by double-figures at home to an average Toronto team....oh, and Byron Scott will be fired by Christmas if George Shinn is alive
- Very impressed by Phoenix lately... putting up 110 in Boston just cemented that even further....that's insanity... and J-Rich looks like an all-star in that system (34 and 10 vs. the Celts)
- Manny took the $20 million option from LAD.... shocking.... I've never heard of anyone just openly turning down $20 million options...this is news?
- The Red Sox traded with their perpetual trading partner the Marlins and fleeced them of Jeremy Hermida...a local guy (ATLien) who has power and is a good athlete....just something to keep an eye on as JD Drew gets injured....repeatedly
- Denver signed Ty Law today... basically ensuring that they have the best CB tandem in the league....oh wait, this isn't 2004? Whoops...
