Yeah, this is a post so Martha that it hurts. I hate Billy Mays. As a matter of fact, I’d like to use that garden tool he pushes on his face. That being said, OxyClean is the greatest stain fighter ever. I thought the world should know.
Car Seat Covers…For Miniature Babies
Posted by on December 4, 2008 Leave a Comment
I decided that baby coats and snow suits are more hassle than they are worth, so I decided that I would make the Snuggie Wrap from Amy Butler’s Little Stitches for Little Ones and instead of making it a swaddle wrap, I would make it a car seat blanket. It actually turned out awesome, except for the part where I made the wrong size and thus it won’t cover Miss Elise’s feet. Sigh…this only means there will be another car seat cover in the making.
I didn’t want to spend a lot on fabric in case this didn’t work out. I chose the softest flannel I could find in the nursery print section at Jo-Anns. In case you aren’t aware, most of the flannel at Jo-Ann’s doesn’t really qualify as soft, however this elephant print was really cute, and only like $2.50 a yard. I then picked a nice lavender fleece. I added a fusible fleece lining for extra warmth as suggested in the Little Stitches book. I intended to cut out the 3-6 month size, but ended up cutting my border strips to the 0-3 month size, which meant the entire thing had to be changed to the 0-3 month size. Yay for sewing at 4 a.m.
Overall this is a really simple project. I recommend following the directions when Amy says baste. In general, I don’t like to baste because I find it a waste of time and wasted thread, however in this case it really helps to hold everything together. Instead of the two buttonholes in the back for the Snuggie Wrap tie, I chose to make five 2 inch buttonholes for the straps of the car seat to fit through. They worked perfectly! Other than the shortness, I am VERY pleased with how this project turned out and can’t wait to make the larger one.
Ripping Things Apart…
Posted by on November 24, 2008 Leave a Comment
So sometimes you just have to start over. That Weekender Bag I cut out like 6 months ago is still sitting around in pieces and I’ve decided I’m just ripping apart those two pockets I put together and starting over. It’s that cording…that darn cording!! Then I saw THIS! bag. It’s incredibly cute and made without cording. Can you tell I hate the cording? You can only seam rip so many times before you want to start seam ripping your eye. So here’s to hoping this project goes faster when I’m less frustrated by cording…and hope that it looks as cute!
NFL Week 11: Guess Who’s Back?
Posted by on November 16, 2008 Leave a Comment
The Bengals and the Cowboys return from bye’s this week. The Bucs and the Redskins do too, but they’re less entertaining to mock. The Unicorn posted a win over the Patriots this week (?!) further proving this season is a crap shoot.
Denver Broncos vs. Atlanta Falcons
This goes against all common sense, but I’m choosing the Falcons. They are superb at home this season and the Broncos have to learn to play at a normal altitude. This doesn’t look promising for Jay Cutler.
Minnesota Vikings vs. Tampa Bay Buccaneers
B-O-R-I-N-G! I’m inclined to choose the Buccaneers because they are 6-3 and the Vikings can’t even be on top of the mediocre NFC North. Beating Detroit isn’t something to brag about.
Baltimore Ravens vs. New York Giants
11 weeks ago this game also sounded boring. The Ravens were coming off a season of bad QB decisions and it seemed their offense only took the field to fill up space, 3 and out anyone? The Ravens have decided that offense is no longer optional (and got rid of ole’ Brian..nice job). However, the Giants only loss this season has come out of the AFC North. I know, the Browns…horrible. However, you KNOW who I choose. GIANTS!
Oakland Raiders vs. Miami Dolphins
This match up would’ve been so awesome last year, you know, when Miami couldn’t beat themselves. Well, this season they are winning and proving grumpy old Parcels can stop a train wreck. Perhaps Oakland or Cincinnati should wave money in his face. Miami will win, Raiders fans will continue to stab each other.
New Orleans Saints vs. Kansas City Chiefs
The Chiefs can’t even get out of their own way long enough to make it to the end zone. Then they have a chance to tie a game and they choose to go for two..for the win! Dismal. Saints have it easy this week.
Detroit Lions vs. Carolina Panthers
Well, the Lions continue their quest for perfect failure this week, I imagine they’ll be successful. Carolina barely even needs to take the field.
Philadelphia Eagles vs. Cincinnati Bengals
Ugh, I hate that I have to choose Donovan McNabb to win. It burns in my throat. Fitzy is starting to figure out being an NFL quarterback, but with a week off I don’t think the Bengals will come out strong. Sigh.
Chicago Bears vs. Green Bay Packers
Well, Rexie blew it for the Bears last week..typical. Kyle expects to be back this week, but I expect the Bears to lose. I think the Packers might be getting tired of losing and might start fighting. Plus, they’re playing at home. Kyle doesn’t get to do the leap.
Houston Texans vs. Indianapolis Colts
The Texans don’t have a chance. They should just stay home and drink heavily this week…wait, that might be more appropriate for Detroit.
St. Louis Rams vs. San Francisco 49′ers
The 49′ers really dropped the ball against Arizona. I actually expect them to win this one, because I don’t think St. Louis can bring their A game..or B game…maybe a C game to the west coast.
Arizona Cardinals vs. Seattle Seahawks
Matty is back! I’m not sure this spells a win for the Seahawks but it certainly improves their chances. What the heck, I always bet against the Cardinals and Qwest is the loudest field ever, I’m not sure Kurt can turn his hearing aids up loud enough.
Tennessee Titans vs. Jacksonville Jaguars
The Jags lost to the Bengals, do I think they’ll beat Tennessee? Nope, but I do think it’ll be a game worth watching.
San Diego Chargers vs. Pittsburgh Steelers
While I don’t enjoy Mike Tomlin, I’m glad the NFL P. Diddy called that Fat Kid out for not practicing after the sloth pretty much threw the game away last week. I don’t think Phil Rivers is going to bring a win on the road though, sadly..I wish I did believe it though.
Dallas Cowboys vs. Washington Redskins
Two rested teams coming back, Tony will take the band-aid off that paper cut and we’ll see how he does. I think the Cowboys will win, because they don’t have a choice. T.O. is on the verge of another media breakdown and old Wade won’t be happy.
Cleveland Browns vs. Buffalo Bills
Who schedule THIS for Monday night? Glad I’ll be working. The Bills are totally going to blow the Browns away.
NFL Week 10: Good News, The Bengals Can’t Lose This Week!
Posted by on November 9, 2008 Leave a Comment
You know, because they don’t play. The same goes for the Cowboys. Antonio can finally have that paper cut heal for next week. I also apologize for not posting about the beginning of the Brady Quinn era or most importantly Derrick Anderson’s SHOCK! over being benched. You know, because if my job performance was that bad not only would people die, but I would probably be fired. Be lucky you’re still employed in this economy, Anderson…ingrate.
New Orleans Saints vs. Atlanta Falcons
This game meant nothing 10 weeks ago. It wasn’t even worth mentioning. However, now that the Falcons have proved they can win games and have put that Joey Herrington/Byron Leftwich mistake behind them, this game is mildly more exciting than brushing my dog. I’m actually picking New Orleans this week and by the way, I’m done predicting scores because I never even bother to look at the score and let’s face it, neither do you.
Tennessee Titans vs. Chicago Bears
Hmmm, let’s see…the Titans are undefeated AND Rexie gets the start. No brainer. After this loss I expect to hear Kyle Orton crying about how he could have played this week. Oh, and to the girl with the “Rexy still sexy” picture…gross. Go Titans!
Jacksonville Jaguars vs. Detroit Lions
The Jags must bounce back from their loss to the Bengals. Ouch…that hurt. Meanwhile Detroit is…..typical Detroit. Kitna is out…and that guy who replaced Kitna is out..and they brought in Daunte Culpepper to solve their problems. Yep, I look for Joey Herrington to make a return too. Jags all the way.
Baltimore Ravens vs. Houston Texans
Finally! You know I’ve been waiting all season for this game, darn that Hurricane Ike! Heh, that’s funny. Old Sage is back which means Joe Flacco Superstar will be getting the win this week. Ugh, Baltimore.
Seattle Seahawks vs. Miami Dolphins
With Seneca Wallis at the helm what could go wrong? Everything. Just like the Seahawks season, down the toilet. This game is about as exciting as an episode of OW! My Balls! Go Miami.
Green Bay Packers vs. Minnesota Vikings
Oooo, a division game! Yeah, I’m not real excited either. I kind of thought that the Vikings gave up when they put Gus Frerotte back in. However, the Vikings are at .500. I don’t foresee them being 5-4 after this game. Go Packers!
Buffalo Bills vs. New England Patriots
Patriots all the way. I’m so over the Bills, I’m glad the announcers seem to be getting over them too. Patriots!
St. Louis Rams vs. New York Jets
The Rams looked like they were making a turn around with those amazing two wins, but proving they were just a fluke their record is 2-6. The Jets are…5-3? Further proving this is some sort of football apocalypse. Magical Unicorn for the win!
Carolina Panthers vs. Oakland Raiders
Panthers win. The End. PS – John McCain is a Raiders Fan….HAHAHAHAHAHAHA! This may or may not be worse than Obama the Steelers fan.
Indianapolis Colts vs. Pittsburgh Steelers
Fat Kid is a game time decision. Which means he’s going to play, but Mike Tomlin is afraid of a freak motorcycle accident or gall bladder attack this afternoon. Meanwhile, the always awesome Peyton will be playing. Which only means one thing, Colts win.
Kansas City Chiefs vs. San Diego Chargers
The Chiefs can’t even get out of their own way! I mean, the Chargers lost to New Orleans in London but we can blame the excessive rain and time change. Chargers all the way.
New York Giants vs. Philadelphia Eagles
Well, here’s a no brainer. I’ve never been shy about my hatred towards Donovan McNabb and his whining. I’ve also not been shy about my love of Eli and his inability to talk. Giants!
San Francisco 49′ers vs. Arizona Cardinals
Do they put the 49′ers on MNF so that we can all laugh at them on the national stage? I mean, they are terrible every year and still get Monday night games? Lame. Kurt Warner..go old! Cardinals FTW!
The Election – My Analysis
Posted by on November 5, 2008 1 Comment
Fellow Americans, I have good news and I have bad news. The good news is McCain didn’t win, the bad news is Obama did. The depressing upside is that we won’t be at war with Russia…and Iran…and Iraq…and Afghanistan in 6 months. I’m puzzled by an America that cries for change and continues to vote in the same narrow minded, 2 party way. Meanwhile, who are the nearly 2500 Ohioans who voted for Socialist Brian Moore? You know, because socialism merely bridges the gap between communism and capitalism, which makes it a fantastic choice. That’s something I can raise my fist and chant for….ugh. Change is coming, but at what expense? Who likes taxes? Democrats like taxes! Oh, and government healthcare is a fantastic idea, look what a great job the government has done with our schools?
Perhaps the good news is that the king of the west side, Steve Chabot, won’t be returning to Washington. Perhaps now he’ll have time to go buy a new car.
NFL Week 9: This Season is Just Disturbing
Posted by on November 2, 2008 Leave a Comment
Why is it that last year after just 4 weeks all we heard about was how amazing the Patriots looked and this season, the Titans are undefeated and it’s as if no one even noticed?
New York Jets vs. Buffalo Bills
Ugh. That’s how I feel about both of these teams. Trent Edwards will be struggling to scramble because he has a sore ankle, Brett Favre will be struggling to scramble simply because he’s old. The Bills are doubtful to lose two division games in a row, which makes my heart hurt. Bills by 10.
Detroit Lions vs. Chicago Bears
The Lions are the only team that could possibly be worse than the Bengals, leading us to ask is Rudi Johnson the kiss of death? The Lions haven’t won a game yet this season and I don’t anticipate them winning one this week either. Even if Rex plays. Bears by 24.
Jacksonville Jaguars vs. Cincinnati Bengals
I’m starting to wonder what the purpose of bringing back Chris Henry A.K.A. “Alligator Arms” was. I mean, he doesn’t make any catches, and pretty much doesn’t even try unless he thinks he’s going to get a touchdown. Of course, the Bengals have like 19 receivers on the field at any given time and still choose to run the ball. Will they win this week? That’s a no. Jacksonville can send in their third string and still win by 10.
Baltimore Ravens vs. Cleveland Browns
I still can’t believe Troy Smith isn’t playing. However, against the Browns, Joe Flacco’s mom could probably play and look decent. The Ravens will take another game from the Browns this week, probably by 14.
Tampa Bay Buccaneers vs. Kansas City Chiefs
The Chiefs are terrible. I’m completely dumbfounded how they have won a game! They won’t win another one this week though. Buccaneers by 7.
Houston Texans vs. Minnesota Vikings
The Texans are on a huge winning streak, they’ve beat 3 terrible teams in a row!! Perhaps they’ll get to continue their streak and up their game by beating a slightly less than mediocre team this week in Minnesota! Texans by 7.
Arizona Cardinals vs. St. Louis Rams
Here’s two teams who gave no business winning games! Who would’ve thought both of these teams would have better records than the Seahawks in the NFC West? I’m going to pick the Cardinals this week because Kurt Warner hearts St. Louis, and they heart him. Cards by 14.
Green Bay Packers vs. Tennessee Titans
Again, the Titans are undefeated. The Packers are…defeated. There won’t be any cheesehead winnings this week. After beating the Colts last week, the Titans are probably unstoppable for a few weeks more at least. Kerry Collins is really taking this quarterbacking thing seriously! Titans by 7.
Miami Dolphins vs. Denver Broncos
I have no faith in the Dolphins, I don’t care who they beat on a fluke this season! The Broncos can be counted on at least 50% of the time, and I think the Dolphins will be too busy gasping for air at Mile High this week to win. Denver by 10.
Dallas Cowboys vs. New York Giants
That right finger still plagues the Cowboys. Antonio probably holds T.O. after the games and they cry together. No way do the Cowboys beat the Giants in New York with a back up QB. That and I only cheer for the Giants in the NFC East. Giants by 17.
Atlanta Falcons vs. Oakland Raiders
I don’t know what has gotten into the Falcons this season, but Matt Ryan is like the second coming of Michael Vick…minus that dog drama…and being the QB/leading rusher. What I’m really saying is, getting rid of Joey Herrington and Byron Leftwich is the greatest thing to happen to this franchise in a few years. The Raiders are still…the Raiders. Although they may have quit actually trying to lose, they’ll just lose trying this week. Falcons by 10.
Philadelphia Eagles vs. Seattle Seahawks
The Seahawks don’t have a chance. Old Matty is still out (and can’t walk on his heels, yay nerve injury!), Seneca Wallis isn’t even a real quarterback (Charlie Frye is, proving how terrible his is..they STILL won’t let him play). Brian Westbrook could just rest it this week and let someone else play, it won’t matter. Eagles by 17.
New England Patriots vs. Indianapolis Colts
This is another game that was a lot more exciting before both teams turned up only mediocre. Typically I’m ok with mediocre, except when it comes in the forms of two teams that should be 6-1 at least. Will Matt Cassel look like a super star? Will staph eat off Peyton’s leg before half time? When it all comes down to it, the Patriots are the more beat up team this week and given the home field advantage, I’m choosing the Colts by 7.
Pittsburgh Steelers vs. Washington Redskins
The Steelers are learning 101 ways to blow their season. I mean, if it wasn’t for the fact that the rest of the AFC North is terrible, they wouldn’t be 5-2. Being 5-2 is sort of like being the best of the crappy teams. Meanwhile, the NFC East started as a pretty tough division. Like I’d pick the Steelers if I didn’t have to…they blew it last week against the Giants and I assume they’ll blow it again this week too…Redskins by 10.
NFL Week 8: This Has Gone Too Far
Posted by on October 26, 2008 Leave a Comment
Ok Cincinnati, you’ve made your point, you’re terrible…you can win a game now. Even Oakland has won games. Perhaps Carson is just waiting for his turn to get staph. Seriously, are these boys washing their wounds with Ohio River water?!?!?!?!
Oakland Raiders vs. Baltimore Ravens
Speaking of Oakland, they really pulled a fast one on old Brett’s team by winning last week. They probably won’t be pulling a fast one on Joe Flacco this week. Not unless Ray Lewis tears his triceps tendon again. Ravens by 10. I’m going to miss Lane Kiffin……maybe he can coach the Bengals next year.
Arizona Cardinals vs. Carolina Panthers
If you had told me that in week 8 the Cardinals would be sitting at 4-2, the Bengals 0-7, I would’ve punched you in the face. However here we are, and the Panthers are also 5-2. Further proving how out of control things have gotten in the NFL. This week I anticipate seeing the Panthers move to 6-2, because regardless of their record, the NFC West is a terrible division and cannot be counted on to win games. Carolina by 17.
Tampa Bay Buccaneers vs. Dallas Cowboys
Another thing I wouldn’t have done 8 weeks ago is choose Tampa Bay over Dallas. However, that was before Antonio was out with an injury to his “right finger”…as opposed to the wrong one? And “right finger” makes it sound as if he has only one finger on his right hand, which would make him amazing. But he has all 5, intact, except for that paper cut..which makes him just your average cry baby. Tampa Bay by 14.
Washington Redskins vs. Detroit Lions
In this league there are few things you can count on, Detroit losing is one of them. Regardless of Kitna’s injured back, the Lions never had a chance in this game. The Redskins are on fire and will continue to prove that they are actually better than St. Louis, that loss was just a fluke. Redskins by 24.
Buffalo Bills vs. Miami Dolphins
I think that Ronnie Brown trick might have worn out it’s wow factor. I also think that regardless of how I feel about the Bills this season, they are still going to beat the Dolphins. The only hope Miami has is that JP Losman (second most sacked QB in the NFL…and he hasn’t even really played cried since early last season) gets to play. Bills by…..17.
St. Louis Rams vs. New England Patriots
Will crazy ole’ Bill try to run up the score again and risk the health of….his entire defense? Will Brady stop by and rub his staph knee all over Marc Bulger? At 2-4, the Rams are second in the NFC West, I told you it was a terrible division. This winning streak is an outrage. It’s also about to end. If the Brady-less Patriots can defeat the Broncos 41-7, and then turn around and lose to the Rams…..they should be banned from football until Pacman is allowed to play again…and then as punishment, they should be forced to put him on the team. Patriots by 21.
San Diego Chargers vs. New Orleans Saints
Way to send our best to represent, now Philly can just go cry in another country. Since the Chargers have decided that winning is optional this season, I think I’m going to pick the Saints. That and the Saints are closer to their own time zone than the Chargers are in this game..which is really my reason for picking them. Saints by 3.
Kansas City Chiefs vs. New York Jets
Larry Johnson is “disgusted” with himself. Well Larry. we’re disgusted too. We’re kinda disgusted at your whole team actually, but you in particular. Tyler Thigpen will be the starting QB for Kansas City, I know..we’ve never heard of him either. The old Unicorn will of course be on the field for the Jets..he’s kind of like that guy who keeps coming back to high school long after graduation isn’t he? This is a no brainer, Jets by 24.
Atlanta Falcons vs. Philadelphia Eagles
What has gotten into Atlanta? Winning games and stuff! Same old, same old for Philly, Brian Westbrook game time decision..he’s always a game time decision. Andy Reid needs some new tricks. Even at home, I don’t trust the Eagles to win this game. Yes, I just picked Atlanta..by 3..McNabb to cry later, not on camera like his BFF T.O.
Cleveland Browns vs. Jacksonville Jaguars
Kellen Winslow runs mouth, doesn’t get traded…just benched. Good call, Kellen. If I had to guess, I’d say that Derek Anderson is going to get used to the taste of turf this week. Perhaps he should call up that Fat Kid from Findlay and ask how to remove grass stains from his face. The Jaguars are going to walk over the Browns with no problem this week. Jaguars by 14.
Cincinnati Bengals vs. Houston Texans
The Texans are on a huge winning streak. You know, they’ve won 2 games..which is 2 more games than Cincinnat has won. With Carson still nursing his elbow, we’ll be forced to watch Fitzpatrick act as if it’s his first time on the field for the third straight week. The good news is Cedric Benson has been running the ball more than Chris Perry which has really reduced Cincinnati’s game costing fumbles in the fourth quarter. The Bengals are hoping to get a win this week…because it’s pretty much their only hope of getting one this season at this point. Bengals by 3..please..come on guys, put your big boy pants on and get it together.
New York Giants vs. Pittsburgh Steelers
The Giants physical defense will prove they are at least better than the Steelers horrid O-line. I anticipate seeing lots of defense from the Giants and a stumbling, confused Troy Polamalu dancing on the side lines. Seriously, he got knocked stupid last week, he’s going to go the way of Troy Aikman…and end up calling games and sounding stupid on Fox. Perhaps he should call Santonio Holmes and ask about self medicating. Heh heh. Giants by 10!
Seattle Seahawks vs. San Francisco 49′ers
I can’t believe I’m making this call, but the 49′ers are going to win. Without Matt Hasselbeck, the Seahawks are just another terrible team. Plus, their lime green shoelaces tend to annoy me. It’s all so sad, because I really like Mike Holmgren. 49′ers by 3…I mean, they’ll win but they’re still terrible.
Indianapolis Colts vs. Tennessee Titans
I will not be siding with Manning in this game. Sorry Peyton, but your team isn’t as hot as they should be this year and the Titans are still undefeated. Even Eli has lost a game (to the Brown’s…hurl). Even with Kerry Collins the Titans just keep on winning, who saw that coming? Titans by 10.
NFL Week 7: Bengals Continue Their Quest For First Round Draft Pick (Who Will Inevitably Suck)
Posted by on October 19, 2008 Leave a Comment
Yep, we’re back to normal in Cincinnati. We don’t know what to do if we’re not home to the worst team in the NFL.
Baltimore Ravens vs. Miami Dolphins
I don’t know what has gotten into Miami this season…who do they think they are, winning and stuff? It’s almost as ridiculous as Joe Flacco still playing. In my wildest dreams I would never dreamed I’d be doing this but I’m picking Miami…by 3..against the aging defense of the Ravens. That whole Ronnie Brown thing…you get the picture.
Pittsburgh Steelers vs. Cincinnati Bengals
You can read the title and see how I feel about this game. On my birthday no less…shameful Bengals. Will Carson ever get over this sissy-itis? I mean really dude, it’s way out of hand. When my joints hurt, I still have to go to work. There’s no “injured reserve” for nurses. Anyways, that fat kid from Findlay is going to come to town, there will be more Terrible Towels than Bengals jerseys in the stands and I’ll be at home cheering for the Giants. Steelers by 14….and that’s just at the half. The best thing that can happen here is a Fitzpatrick injury. I’m over him.
New Orleans Saints vs. Carolina Panthers
This game will probably be more exciting than the Bengals/Steelers match up. Sad, huh? Sure, the Saints won last week but really…the Raiders. Not being killed by a fan in silver and black is pretty much a win in and of itself. However facing Jake’s bionic elbow (Carson take note) is a different challenge. The Panthers have been oddly impressive this year, creepy I know. But, I think the Saints can take them. Saints by 3, Drew, please leave your Ray Lewis impressions off the field, I was embarrassed for you.
San Francisco 49′ers vs. New York Giants
Eli, you had better not let me down on my birthday. Getting stomped by the Browns…that was gross. The Browns who could only beat the Bengals were able to beat the Giants. My heart still aches. Meanwhile, the dismal 49′ers are coming to town reminding us how terrible football is on the west coast. Tom Coughlin probably sacrificed someone from the practice squad over last weeks loss to prove his point (and no doubt used the F word a lot…we can read those lips loud and clear, Tom). Giants by 17.
Minnesota Vikings vs. Chicago Bears
I have no reason for hating the Bears as much as I do, I admit it. That being said, I really wish I believed the Vikings had a chance. Even if Rex played, I don’t think the Vikings have a chance. Gus, you’re that bad. Sure, you beat the Lions, but most high school teams could beat the Lions. I picked the Steelers and the Bears…gross. Bears by 10.
Tennessee Titans vs. Kansas City Chiefs
Larry Johnson violates team rules, effectively blows away any chance the Chiefs had of being relatively competitive in this game. No, it’s not realistic to believe they might have won, but they would probably look prettier losing if Larry Johnson played. You see who my pick is…Titans by 7.
San Diego Chargers vs. Buffalo Bills
Finally, a team I believe can beat the Bills….but they’re coming from the West Coast. Trent Edwards is back, proving that JP Losman is still the worlds greatest bench warmer. Man, he’s still fun to pick on, even when he doesn’t play. I’m going to hope this prediction comes true…Phil, dry your tears. San Diego by 10.
Dallas Cowboys vs. St. Louis Rams
With Romo possibly out with a papercut, Adam Jones back to being Pacman, and the Cowboys franchise being hit hard with fines, Jerry Jones is probably locked in a closet drinking moonshine from his boots. Even with all this drama, the Rams still won’t win. You know why? Because they used up their one win of the season last week. Dallas by 14. By the way, Jerry Jones is only 66…..whoa. There’s a public service message in there somewhere…..it might start with wear sunscreen.
Detroit Lions vs. Houston Texans
The Texans will start a winning streak with this game. Kitna is out, which doesn’t really mean much in the grand scheme of things in Detroit…it just means someone even worse than he is will be manning the ship. The Texans even have a chance at a blow out! Meh, maybe not. Houston by 10.
Indianapolis Colts vs. Green Bay Packers
Peyton had extra knee surgery blah blah blah. Why is that the only news coming out of Indy? Meanwhile, Al Harris is out for the Packers. The Packers look nice this season, and the Colts had a rough start but I think they’re on the rebound..Colts by 14.
Cleveland Browns vs. Washington Redskins
Last week the Browns owned the Giants and the Redskins lost to the Rams. This week situation will return to normal and the Redskins will be back on top. There’s no way the Browns will win three in a row, it’s pretty much impossible. They should’ve just stayed home. Redskins by 24.
New York Jets vs. Oakland Raiders
The magical unicorn should hold onto his helmet (and his wallet) this week. I hope there’s a Lambaeu Leap into the Black Hole this week…although watching Favre get stabbed may or may not be the kind of entertainment I’m looking for. What I’m really saying is, the Raiders don’t have a chance. Jets by 7.
Seattle Seahawks vs. Tampa Bay Buccaneers
The Seahawks are also competing for worst team in the NFL I think. Seneca Wallis will be starting this week which can only mean one thing. There’s even LESS of a chance that Tampa Bay will lose. Buccaneers by 21.
Denver Broncos vs. New England Patriots
8 weeks ago this seemed like a much more exciting game. With Brady hurt and the inferior Matt Cassel playing, it’s become the kind of Monday Night Football game I could fall asleep to. New England will probably keep it close, but Jay Cutler will pull some sort of trickery at the end and the Broncos will win by like 1. It’s how they are always winning.
NFL Week 6: No Angst…No Predictions..It’s Lame
Posted by on October 12, 2008 Leave a Comment
Sick husbands, taking care of babies and working have all added up to no time this week. I do have time for this, I watched a clip on NFL.com, Anquan Boldin update which referred to Anquan as having a “fractured sinus”. If sinus is nothing more than empty space, explain HOW it gets fractured. Look clown, you fracture bones NOT sinuses. I should be getting paid for this.
