Week 15 Picks

Quick news and notes from this week in the NFL:

NFL CRIMETIME!
Convicted:
Michael Vick, 23 months for the most obvious reasons as you may have heard by now. He probably won't be playing football in prison or be the backup QB for Burt Reynolds against the guards. (Every media outlet you can think of)

Cited:
Denver Broncos punter/kicker Todd Sauerbrun for intoxication and punching a cab driver. He was held overnight in a cell for detox and played Thursday against Houston. Whether or not without the hangover, either. (Denver Post)

The Birds Gets Flipped: Former Atlanta Falcons Head Coach Bobby Petrino has quit the team with 3 weeks left in the season and has signed with Arkansas for the head coach position at that school. He wrote a letter to all players instead of meeting with them in person, which has drawn the ire of teammates and the general sports media. At least Cam Cam's going to last an entire season. (Sports by Brooks)

The 42 year plan: 42 years ago Joe Namath left Alabama 15 credits shy of a degree to become a Super Bowl winning QB and kissing Suzy Kolber on ESPN. Fast forward to today and he will graduate with a BA from 'Bama. Depending on the job market Namath, much like most recent college graduates, will have a tough time getting his first job out of college.

CIDNKILF: Comedian I Do Not Know I'd Like to F***: 46 year old Comedian Lisa Lampenelli claims to have had sexual relations with a member of the Chicago Bears in Philadelphia in October. As much as I'd like to continue about this story, I can't think of anything funny for it.

Deadspin just crapped themselves: Bears QB/Alcoholic/Neckbeard Kyle Orton will be starting at QB this Monday against the Vikings. Sexy Rexy and Griese Lightning will have to wait as the Deadspin HOF member, known primarily for his candid drunken photography, will lead the team to a sure loss and a spot on The List this week.

Week 15 Picks

Gary Says:


Baltimore at Miami - Baltimore, but given the Ravens incompetency lately, this could be Miami's first win and another streak messed up on the season.

NY Jets at New England - SpyGate 2, which is going to be about as good as Spy Kids 2. New England by 300 points.

Jacksonville at Pittsburgh - Pittsburgh by 10.

Reedy's Fantasy Football team is in the championships this weekend, thus he's picked games with his team starters.

Reedy Says:

Green Bay at St. Louis -
Rams RB Stephen Jackson starting
Philadelphia at Dallas - Cowboys QB Tony Romo starting
Atlanta at Tampa Bay - The Post-Bobby Petrino Era starts this week
