Alright, I finally pulled out a win last week. I’m not feeling particularly creative or insightful this week. I just hope I run over Larson with a Mack truck on my way to .500.
I LOVE CARDS over Falcors: Even though in a real life Falcon beats Cardinal, the vaunted running attack of the make-believe Falcons got stuffed by the Saints last week. The Cards mediocre defense has at least as good a shot. Cards by a feather.
I LOVE BOYS over Titans: I almost want to pick the Titans on principle. I can’t stand hearing about it every time TO gets injured or takes a poop. Flash forward ten years and I fear that TO will be hawking autographs at trading card shows in the Kandiyohi County (MN) mall in Willmar. Boys by fewer pain pills.
I LOVE COLTS over J-E-T-S: While the Jets are improving, they’re just not in the same league as…oh they are? Well, they’re going to lose. Colts by a dirty subway car.
I LOVE FINS over Te’hans: It is damn satisfying, as a Vikings fan, to see Daunte Culpepper bring his fumble-fingers, handicap clap, and stupid arm jestures to another team. That said, David Carr doesn’t even have those things. Fins by Daunte’s ugly mug.
I LOVE PURPLE over Bison: I know what you’re thinking. “Homer!” This would be the case if the Bills could compete with Bethel’s football team. But they can’t. Hell, the wdyl community could put together a team that could compete with the Bills. Purple by a good, hearty Steve Johnson cry.
I LOVE PANTS over Righteous People: The Saints can’t keep it up. Something’s gotta go wrong for them. Pants by Murphy’s law.
I LOVE RAVES over Bolts: The best damn game of the week. I say Ravens only because they’re at home, and their defense looks like the Union soldiers on top of Little Round Top. Nothing’s getting through. Raves by Robert E. Lee’s hubris.
I LOVE CHEFS over Ninahs: Chefs by an Arrowhead.
I LOVE NOT EWES over Loins: Not Ewes by a Roy Williams guarantee.
I LOVE POOPIES over Raidahs: Because somebody has to win, and it ain’t gonna be the
Raidahs.
I LOVE JAGS over Skins: Because even Norman Einstein couldn’t figure out the Skins playbook.
I LOVE STRIPEYS over Patsies: Because Carson Palmer is as hot as magma.
I LOVE BURRS over S’hawks: Because Shaun Alexander isn’t playing, and the Burrs defense is.
I LOVE UGGLES over Puckers: Not even close. Uggles by witty Kornheiser banter.
