July 4th, Christmas Day, St Paddies and your Birthday all rolled into one. That’s how I feel on Week 1. Probably slept about 4 hours last night. Was up at 6 am just staring at the clock waiting for it to hit noon. Every week we’re going to pick a Favorite, a Dog, an Over and an Under. Mandatory 1 head to head pick. May the best man win.
Sidenote – If you’ve been following me on twitter you know that I am on FIRE so far this season…
Favorite
Big Cat – Seattle -2.5 vs Arizona – Little known fact. I’m a HUGE Pete Carroll fan. Why? Because the guy knows how to have FUN. Pranks, Shenanigans, Knee Slappers, you name it Pete does it. Does he actually know how to Coach? Not Really. But its like when Gordon Bombay made the Ducks remember how to have fun and they then smoked the Hawks. You always have to have FUN.
Neil - Detroit -9 vs. St. Louis – Detroit could rest their studs and roll out Scott Mitchell and Herman Moore today and this would still be easy money.
Dog
Big Cat - San Francisco +5 vs Green Bay - While Aaron Rodgers was getting creampied , signing the next Creed to his record label, and being an all around hilarious guy, Jim Harbaugh was sleeping under his desk, eating take out, and watching millions of hours of film. Jim Harbaugh Slamball all day er day.
Neil - Buffalo +3 at. NY Jets – I keep envisioning Mark Sanchez and Eva Longoria as Ben Braddock and Mrs. Robinson from The Graduate. But only in the first half of the movie. When Ben was a total pussy and before he grew some balls and tried to plow Elaine. I’m not laying 3 with two virgins at quarterback.
Over
Big Cat – Indianapolis vs Chicago Over 43 – Two things. 1) I think the Bears D is going to be worse than we realize and 2) Their offense is going to finish top 5 in O.
Neil – New England vs. Tennessee Over 48 – This will hit by the 3rd quarter.
Under
Big Cat – Minnesota vs Jacksonville Under 37.5 – Live from Jacksonville…
Neil – Indianapolis vs. Chicago Under 43 – I’ll rue the day I tried to be nice and let you go first this week. Jax vs. Minny O/U could be 13.5 and I’d go under. Anyway, on to the Bears. Disagree about the Bears D. Austin Collie’s gonna be playing basketball with the Chief and Nurse Ratched by halftime. (Update: So man Collie isn’t playing today. So, so mad)
I'd be fucking PISSED if I were bigcat and just got confused for whitesoxdave
