Tim’s Week 8 Picks:

Alright, I’m back on the Cowboys bandwagon again and back to being confident in my picks after a decent week 7. Coin tossing for my picks will have to wait at least another week. So will deep thought.
BALTIMORE (-3) over Denver
No real reason for the Ravens to be the favorite here. No real reason for [...]

Zuri’s Week 7 NFL picks

Ugh. Last week was just tough on the mojo. This week, we’re stepping our game up. A little late, but never debatable. Here are my Week 7 NFL picks:
Chargers (-6) over Chiefs
God the Chiefs suck. Matt Cassell can’t fix this. He can’t! There, I said it.
Colts (-15) over Rams
The worst team in the NFL is [...]

Tim’s Week 7 Picks:

Let me first say that this may very well be my last week using the “whatever, just pick somebody” strategy. It takes me a total of 30 seconds of light thinking to come up with these, and I’m starting to think that’s why I’m doing so poorly. If I’m not satisfied with my week 7 [...]

Michael Crabtree ain’t out the woods yet

When Michael Crabtree finally signed with San Francisco 49ers last week, there was a sigh of relief for owners all around (besides the Jets, I assume) because the sanctity of the slotted draft system and its capitulation that money be doled out according to draft number rather than actual value was once again preserved.
That’ll be [...]

Zuri’s Week 6 NFL picks

Last week’s Seattle blowout of Jacksonville has me rethinking the AFC South, including Tampa Bay. There’s a lot o volatility in that division, and general suckiness. Be weary of those picks, they screwed me up last week.
Kansas City (+6 1/2) over Washington
The Redskins and the Chiefs suck. But that doesn’t mean I don’t think it’ll [...]

Tim’s Week 6 Picks

Kansas City (+6 1/2) over WASHINGTON
The Chiefs nearly beat the Cowboys, so that’s saying something, isn’t it? Well, still, I don’t think the Redskins should be favored by 6 1/2 over anyone. That team sucks. Jim Zorn is a guaranteed fire by the offseason. And the players know it.
CINCINNATI (-5 1/2) over Houston
I have never [...]

Super Bowl picks: The end all, have all post

When we last left you with our Super Bowl predictions, Tim had opined that Baltimore Ravens had the ninth best chance to win the Super Bowl, following the Titans, Patriots, Saints, Cowboys, Steelers, Bears and Vikings.
All of our previous predictions can be found here.
As I noted in an earlier post today, I’ve been slacking. So [...]

Tim’s Week 5 Picks:

Minnesota (-10 1/2) over ST. LOUIS
I’m pretty sure the Rams haven’t scored 10 points yet this season, so I’m a little surprised this line isn’t a bit higher. An awful team playing their awful backup quarterback should be an easy team to bet against.
Dallas (-8 1/2) over KANSAS CITY
I’m not convinced my ‘Boys can cover [...]

Zuri’s week 5 NFL picks

I’ve got three guarantees this week. I’d like you to argue with me, willingly or not, if they’re not guarantees.
Surprise me. I dare you.
Vikings (-10 1/2) over Rams
This is one of the three gimmes of the week. The Rams suck big time, and I’m done thinking they can compete in the NFC West on the [...]

Wow, I’ve been slacking over here…

So it’s a good time to catch up.

We’ve had three features at Addisports.com that haven’t been coming out on their respective dates: My column (on Tuesdays), our daily Superbowl picks (which will run out when we’re done with all 32 teams), and our weekly picks for NFL games (Wednesdays).

A large part of that is my fault. Been busy, what can I say. The other part is I’ve been busy. What can I say.

So I’ve been surprised to look at the traffic here and see that we’ve skyrocketed in terms of fandom, all because of one picture. View that here and below.
