This is what it all comes down to. One game to settle it all. Am I a football picking loser or do I half way know what I’m talking about? The answer is clear but humor me for a few minutes.. I’m 8-2 straight up but only 6-4 against the spread in the NFL playoffs. My two straight up losses were both courtesy of the New York Giants. I picked the G-Men to cover but lose to Dallas and Green Bay.. Keep that in mind.

The play in the video happened against the Rams. If it had happened against Buffalo, the pass would’ve been intercepted.. 5 times.. I like how the Boys scrapped the punt in favor of the interception on Monday night. It resulted in points for Buffalo a few times, but overall pretty damn effective. Yes I’m hatin on Tony Romo and Dallas. You won the game. Big deal. First and foremost, I’m an Eagles fan so I have to hate Dallas. Secondly, I picked them to cover the 10 point spread in a classic trap game, so I’m pissed at them for me being an idiot. Third..

Third. Cowboys fans. Jeezus Christ. Shut up already. For all of my Eagle supporting life, I’ve had to hear it from the Dallas faithful. The Cowboys, Redskins, and Giants have all won Super Bowls. In the last 25 years, those 3 teams have gone to 9 Super Bowls, winning 7 of them. The Eagles have been to 1. The Birds are the NFC East championship ugly stepchild, and the Big D diehards don’t mind letting you know it…

And so, when Nick Folk’s 2nd last second 53 yard field goal sailed through the uprights, (Buffalo used a teh ghey, right before the kick, timeout to nullify the first kick. This tactic needs to yanked. Thanks Shanahan.) I stared at my cellphone. I knew the call or text was coming any minute… It took a little longer than I thought, but my buddy Newy Scruggs sent me a text message.

NS: How bout dem Cowboys!

HG: (typing dejectedly) I was expectin’ this text a while ago.

NS: I was in the locker room. America’s Team baby.

HG: F*** ‘em

This led to a phone conversation about bullshit victories, teams fighting to the end, Kanye West and the team plane. When I asked Scruggs what he thought about next week’s game against New England he said he couldn’t even think about Sunday yet. He was still enjoying Monday night… God I hope the Patriots beat the Cowboys by 50.

I went 11-2-2 last week.. Remember that I don’t prognosticate for or against the Philadelphia Eagles, so that’s why I’m a game short. I hope (for your sake) that I stay hot, but what goes up, must come down. If you don’t like riding with road teams, this post might not be for you. Read the full story

If gambling was abolished, do you know who would suffer the most? The NFL and the NBA referees. Regardless of the NFL’s official stance on wagering, the reason the league is so popular is because of the violence, gambling, and video games. But I’m not here to call the NFL a bunch of hypocrites, I’m here to salute the gridiron gladiators. I am entertained and hopefully my picks do likewise.

I’m superstitious, so I never pick for or against my favorite team, the Philadelphia Eagles. The home team is in bold type. Read the full story
