picking 'em all right

i wish i had thought of making picks this week on the nfl. i can't say i would have done that well (i think i would have been 8-8). anyone, my favorite sports writer, the sports guy, ran a column on friday making picks. he does this every week of the season, and it's interesting to see how he does. this season he was talking about picking against someone, and proposed a few options. because of his wife's correct pick on thursday night, and the seemingly obvious logic with which she did it, he asked her to make weekly picks. she agree, but with the only caveat being that she gets to write one other paragraph about anything, that no one gets to edit. now that could be funny.

so, as monday night football winds down, here's how i see it:
sports guy: 6-10
sports gal: 10-6
me: 8-8

now, the only variable that i'm not dealing with is the points spread. so, based on my understanding of the point spread, his record may be 7-9.

Yes, but how well did Homer pick the winners? I know he got tonight's Raiders-Chargers game correct.

homer had 8 wins, 5 losses, and 3 non picks (toss up on rams, yes a california team won raiders/chargers, and indi beat nyg in the who cares match)

and thanks for that link. funny stuff. i hope they have it every week.
