College Football Picks

Alright kids, i stand at 9-10 on the season. Not exactly a glowing recommendation of my sports genius-ness. This is the week though, i'm feeling it...

Wisconsin +7 over Penn St.
Stupid line. Then again, i thought most of last week's lines were stupid too...

Northwestern -7 over Minnesota
Minnesota is terrible, Northwestern is at home. I haven't seen either team play the entire year. This could be a reach pick...

Miami -3 over Georgia Tech
Miami rolls at home, and sucks on the road. This game's at home.

Virginia Tech -14 over Duke
This line should be higher...

Texas -17 over Iowa State
Iowa St. is terrible this year. I mean bad. I'm not sure I trust this Texas team on the road, but against Iowa State they should score 17 just by accident...

Alabama -6.5 over Mississippi
Ole Miss won't hang with Saban and his Tide.

Oregon -19 over Washington State
Revenge game at home for Oregon, who lost to the Cougars last year.

LSU -10 over Kentucky
The letdown potential is there for LSU, but i think their defense will carry them early in the game. LSU should take over late and win going away.

Michigan St. -3.5 over Indiana
Michigan St. actually looks to have a decent year and not collapse down the stretch for once. Indiana is 5-1. They're not a 6-1 team. They're just not.

Upset Special: Iowa +4 over Illinois
This game has letdown/trap potential written all over it for Illinois. Coming off a big win against Wisconsin last week, travelling to an Iowa team that is having a bad year. But Iowa owns Illinois. I like Iowa's chances this week...

Holy cow, i picked 10 games. Go big or go home i guess...

Disgrace

That's about as damning a photo as I've seen. He doesn't exactly look like he's just sliding hard into second base. It looks like he's trying to take him out. Either way, that was an absolute embarrassment what the fans did in reaction. We take heat all week for not selling the game out, finally sell it out, and then get a bunch of jackasses throwing bottles onto the field. You know what Phoenix? Remember when i said you need to get out and support your team? Scratch that. If you're gonna act like a bunch of drunken retards stay home. Just stay home. I was there, and yeah, i was booing, but i wasn't about to throw anything on the field. What a joke...

Back later today with more thoughts on the actual game...

Game 1 NLCS

Alright kids, i'm off to the Dbacks-Rockies game. I have my camera with me this time, and will get and post some pictures tonight. Thanks to the Dbacks fans for stepping up, there are only a few hundred standing room only tickets left for tonight's game, which i'm sure will be eaten up before game time. Go Dbacks!

ps- Sorry about all the swearing last night, i was just really irked at Kruk. That guy is a hack...

One more

Oh, and by the way, Peter Gammons, who is without a doubt the most respected beat writer in Major League Baseball, picked the Dbacks to win in 7.

For the record, i don't think it will take that long, but i still like the pick.

In fact, might as well make this my LCS predictions column. Dbacks in 6, and Red Sox in 5. There it is.

That's It

You got me started. I can't FUCKING STAND listening to John Kruk. He is a fucking moron. Tonight on Baseball Tonight, as he (predictably) picked the Rockies to beat the Dbacks, this is the verbal diarrhea that came out of his month while talking about why the Dbacks would struggle: 'Chris Young strikes out too much.' Hey Kruky, CY may strikeout at times, but HE HIT THE TWO BIGGEST HOME RUNS OF THE NLCS AGAINST THE CUBS. Go fuck yourself.

One of the very few baseball reporters left on ESPN that i still respect, Tim Kurkjian, picked the Dbacks. For what's it worth...

Fuck It

That's right, I said fuck it. The Dbacks are winning Game 1. It's not a prediction, it's a guaran-fucking-tee. The assholes on Baseball Tonight (don't even get me started on John Kruk. He can go fuck himself) are sucking the Rockie's cock. You know what? THEY'RE LOSING GAME 1. Hate to break it to you. Maybe you forgot that Brandon Webb won the Cy Young last year...

Seriously, what the fuck are these assholes problems? Have they not watched the Dbacks at all? They are paid to watch games and pay attention, so PAY FUCKING ATTENTION. The Dbacks are winning Game 1. And the series. You heard it here first. Just keep doubting us assholes, see where it gets you.

FUCK.

NLCS

Poll on ESPN tonight: Who will win the World Series?

After 90,000+ voted, the Dbacks chance stood at a whopping 5.9%.

Oh, and for the record, after 8 of 10 ESPN 'experts' picked the Cubs to beat the Dbacks in the NLDS, now 9 of 10 ESPN 'experts' are picking the Rockies to beat the Dbacks in the NLCS.

Fantastic. Oh, and also by the way, the Rockies have won 18 of 19. Their only loss? The Dbacks, against Brandon Webb. So, umm, wait, who are the Rockies playing against Thursday, and who's on the mound for that team? Oh, that would be the Dbacks, and Brandon Webb is pitching for them. Weird...
