What We Learned NFL Week 8

We barely Hue ya. I wanted to believe Hue Jackson was a good coach. He went 8-8 with the Raiders back when senile old Al Davis was in his last years. He fired Dennis Allen prematurely, and brought back Art Shell into such a hopeless situation that it only soiled the...

What We Learned SEC Week 9

We missed the worst Mayhem. With the Big Ol’ Hairy Dawgs win in the Cocktail Bowl, we avoided the absolute worst chaos in the SEC East. Right now it’s the Dawgs and Briers at the top of the standings with the Lizards one game behind. The Dawgs & Briers square off...

SEC Picks Week 9 – Who Ya Got?

With chaos in full control of most of college football, the familiarity of life in the SEC is comforting. Not all of that is good, but at least we know what we’re dealing with. ‘Bama is a mile better than everyone else. Everybody still hates Florida. Auburn isn’t as...

What’s this? NFL teams making trades? This happens so rarely that it’s downright shocking to see 2 big names traded in one year, let alone one week. Amari Cooper, “Snacks” Harrison, and Eli Apple were traded this week. More trades could be coming down before Tuesday’s...

What We Learned NFL Week 7

Winning matters. Let me add some context to my Power Rankings. The #1 criterion is win/loss record. You can talk all you want about Philly being a better team than Carolina, but in the last 2 minutes of the game, Carolina made all the big plays and Philly did not, and...

What We Learned SEC Week 8

Upset Apple Cart – After a week where 4 top 10 teams got beat, we had a week where some more upsets threw everything into chaos. So much for Ohio State being invincible. After LSU lost to Florida, we thought they were done, and now they can’t lose. Teams in the Little...

SEC Picks Week 8 – Who Ya Got?

College football season goes too fast. They really need to go to 14 games. The bye week needs to be abolished. These are kids; they don’t need as much rest as 35-year-old grizzled vets. I think there’s a better chance of all that once the ACC, SEC, Big 10 and Pac 12...
