Well, I was almost completely wrong last week. In my defense, though, my picks are often based on what I hope will happen rather than what I suspect really will happen. I’ve liked the Rams since I was a kid (when they won AND when they really sucked) and who knew they would throw (well– not throw– or something) away a game this important? And the boring Patriots win again (of course). But the real heartbreaker was Green Bay, giving it all away. I agree with going for it all on 4th down in the first half, but then punting away when one first down wins it ALL?

Anyway, here are my picks: Indianapolis beats the boring Patriots 27-24 and sissy-girl Brady’s eyeblack runs with his tears like a cheap lap dancer; Carolina continues their miracle run by beating the slow, fat BEagles 20-10– I mean, we have two teams that shouldn’t be there in the first place, one in a good way, one in a bad way (and McNabb has to move to a new city to avoid the riots while filming his Chunky Soup commercials).
