Due to the recent creation of this blog I will combine the picks and results column. It was not a good week for be, so if I begin to spew negativity, bare with me.

Here were the picks for this past week:

San Diego -7 vs. Oakland.
The kid and I both took the Chargers here. I would like to thank Philip Rivers, whom I also own in a touchdown heavy fantasy league for his stellar performance this week. In that same league I chose to keep Michael Bush on the bench, and drop Denarius Moore 2 weeks ago. I should have known by Thursday of this week that it was going to suck.

We both lost this one, Me 0 Kid 0


Pittsburgh -4 at Cinncinati
Again the kid and I were on the same page. The best way to not lose to a 2 year old is to pick exactly the same as him. No way the Steelers were losing 2 in a row. We both get a "W". Me 1 Kid 1



Denver +3 at Kansas City
The kid took KC here. As much as I would like to bet against Tebow in some of these games, I find myself somewhat afraid that I will be struck down by lightning if I do. Besides the Cheifs took me out in week 1 of an eliminator pool ran by a guy who gives everyone who makes it past week 6 a second chance if their team loses.

I'm not bitter about it at all.

Tebow goes 2-8 and another week I'm lightning free. Me 2 Kid 1



Jacksonville -3 at Indianapolis
The kid went the same way. Bill Simmons says a gambling opportunity like the Colts comes along ever so often, but when it does you have to jump it. Riding the suck for Luck bandwagon. Jags cover. Me 3 Kid 2



Buffalo +4.5 at Dallas
The kid took Dallas here. This is where I start my brilliant ride into the depths of hell. Not only did I take the Bills here, but I got them at +11 in my morning teaser. Then the Bills proceeded to remind me that they are really not that good. They choose not to play defense, and forget that Ivy League QBs went to the Ivy League for a reason. They weren't good enough to go to a FBS school.

I don't even think they have wagons to circle anymore in Buffalo. F*%$in Chris Berman.
Me 3 Kid 3



Houston -3.5 at Tampa Bay
Houston is playing way to well to not cover against a bad Bucs team, and they do. Unfortunately the kid took the Texans as well. Sneaky little bastard (No offense to his parents). Me 4 Kid 4



Carolina -3 vs. Tennessee
No way "Back Door Cam" doesn't cover against a bad Titans team right?

Wait, why am I rooting for a guy named "Back Door Cam"?

I lose this game on testicular principles alone. Haselbeck finds another way to screw someone from Washington over. Luckily the kid went the same way I did. Ha!  Me 4 Kid 4



Miami -4 vs. Washington
How bad are the Redskins? Seriously. What do you do if you are Mike Shannahan? This has to be one of the top 5 worst runs by a big name coach ever. At this point he has a worse record that Steve Spurrier and Jim Zorn.

That's right, Jim Zorn. When Jim Zorn is better than you, it's time to find a hole and lay it in. Miami covers, but the kid took the fins as well. Really? Me 5 Kid 5



Atlanta pk vs. New Orleans
Kid took the Falcons as well, weird.

4th and inches, on your own 29, in overtime when all New Orleans needs is a FG to win. What is the thought process here? If you make it, you can't kick a 87 yard FG to win. Does being on crutches lower your intelligence level to that of a high school freshman?

Is it coincidence that the day before I saw an equally dumb move on 4th down that cost Seattle Prep a state playoff game? You gotta love that coaches prepare endlessly for these games, then when a little pressure is put on them, their brains turn to jello.

This game is the beginning of a streak for me going 0 for 6 on picks. Impressive, huh?
 Me 5 Kid 5



Detroit +3 at Chicago
Bears score 3 defensive TDs against me in a TD only fantasy league and the kid took the bears. I don't want to talk about it.
Me 5 Kid 6





Cleveland -3 vs St. Louis
Kid took the Browns. How much does it suck to be a sports fan in Cleveland? You would think their hate for LeBron would fuel them to at least one good game. Rams cover. Fear the Madden curse.
Me 5 Kid 6



Baltimore -7.5 at Seattle
The only thing more improbably than the Seahawks beating a Ravens team that beat up the steelers twice, is that the kid would pick the Seahawks to do it.
Me 5 Kid 7





New York Giants +3.5 at San Francisco
I don't know what it is about Jim Harbaugh, but I don't like him, and I think it affects my picks. "Let's attack the day with enthusiasm unknown to mankind!!!!"

Who says that kind of stuff? People who beat me apparently. Kid took the 49ers.
Me 5 Kid  8




New York Jets +1 vs. New England 
I deserve this for picking against Belichick. Especially in a game where he is playing his archrival Jabba the Rex. Only good thing here is that the kid took the Jets as well.
Me 5 Kid 8




Green Bay -13.5 vs. Minnesota
Kid picked the Vikings. Who cares. I just lost by 2 games to 2 year old.
Me 6 Kid 8
