The Tits and Fins Blowin' in the Wind

From my current locale (an astonishingly clear and cool Breckenridge), the thoughts of a category 4 hurricane blowing the spleefs outta Kingston's collective mug sounds pretty absurd. So to put the thoughts of a destroyed Grenada and yet another massive blowjob headed Florida's way in the proper unfeeling, self-interested American framing, let's talk football.

Today's weather-resheduled game: Titans by 3

Jug - Titans
Colin - Dolphins
Bob - Titans
Eric - Titans

Since I'm headed to an 8 hour Indian wedding celebration tonite (I can't wait for the ritual sodomizing of the horse), I'm not sure if I'll be getting everyone's picks posted here until after games begin on Sunday. Sorry for the delays in our first week. But Sheridan's odds for the remainder of the weekend as I saw them are (Home teams in CAPS):

PITTSBURGH by 4 Oakland
WASHINGTON by 1½ Tampa Bay
Baltimore by 3 CLEVELAND
BUFFALO by 3 Jacksonville
N.Y. JETS by 4½ Cincinnati
CHICAGO by 3 Detroit
ST LOUIS by 10½ Arizona
Seattle by 2½ NEW ORLEANS
HOUSTON by 4½ San Diego
PHILADELPHIA by 9 N.Y. Giants
MINNESOTA by 4½ Dallas
Atlanta by 3½ SAN FRANCISCO
DENVER by 3 Kansas City
CAROLINA by 3 Green Bay

Enjoy your respective burg's 9/11 saccarine-fueled crapola. Our dead countrymen would have wanted it that way, or so the Bushies would have us believe.

SATURDAY HURRI-GAME!

As Bob noted, it appears there will be a Saturday re-schedule for Dolphins-Titans. Pussies. There was a time when a hurricane would only be considered a chance to better test a squad's running game. Regardless, use Sheridan's Friday line (as with all other games for the weekend) and get your picks in before the Saturday start.

Astutely noted -

Thursday game and Pre-season Picks

Thursday's kickoff game line despite the noticed discrepancy by Bob in the USATrashday: Pats by 3.5

Colin - Patriots
Jug - Colts
Bob - Patriots
Eric - Patriots

The following are the best guesses we seem able to offer for the Pre-Season Pot. Heaven help us.

Colin
pats 28
philly 21
indy as my alternate

Jug
Minnesota Vikings 35
Indianapolis Colts 31
Alternate- Baltimore Ravens

Bob
Broncos 26
Seahawks 19
Kansas City is my alternate

Eric
Colts 30
Seahags 20
Alternate - Minnesota Vikings (against every fiber of my being...)

And so it begins, dear friends. I'll do my best to update the blog this weekend, but I leave for Colorado tomorrow morning so I might lag a bit. I'll access my email from the hotel and plug in the picks here ASAP. Rock on, have a great season, I've got DirecTV's Season Ticket at my place in San Fran if you're looking for a weekend getaway complete with too much football viewing, and the best to all your collective families.

Bow Down All Ye Dogs - this is the Best Pool in the World

OK - Sorry for the cheesy Tenacious D reference ("The Best Song in The World"). But this isn't an overstatement. This will be the Best Pool in the World. And all other Pools will bow down to us in hopes of sucking on the teet that we provide to those so far beneath us.

On second thought, ignore all the grandiose shite. The name will stick. The silly overstatements will not. Or so I hope.
