NFL Pick ‘Em: Week #17

Carl from Miami + Miller Genuine

Carl: The Final Countdown is about to begin, people! Well, the Final Countdown to the playoffs.  Which is its own Final Countdown.  As usual, picks will be made by The Big Man, Miller Genuine, the Madden Simulator over at espn.com and some espn.com writer.

NFL Pick ‘Em: Week #16 Wrap-up

Carl from Miami

It’s going to be a lean Christmas at the old bachelor pad.  But, don’t worry sports fans–I’ve got some sure-fire locks this week!  I’ll be spending New Year’s in Cancun, baby!

1) Miller Genuine: 2-2 last week; 31-25 overall

2) Carl from Miami: 2-2 last week; 27-29 overall

2) Simmon: 1-3 last week; 27-29 overall

NFL Pick ‘Em: Week #16

Carl from Miami + Miller Genuine

Colts (favored by 7) at Jags

Carl: Jags. It’s underdog week!

Miller: Did not pick – however, this game was a push, so we will pick an additional game this week.

I guess it’s pleated pants from now on…

RC100 from LA

I was surprised to see Mike Tyson’s new physique.  However, I guess it’s not that surprising, considering he bit Holyfield’s ear a full 11 years ago.

NFL Week #15: Pick ‘Em Wrap-Up

Will from D.C.

A great night for us Cowboys fans, a bad night for the bettors here at TBW.  The Madden Simulator was the only one of our panel to post a winning record.  Fat–er, Big–Carl went 1-3, as did Simmons.  Miller laid an egg and is currently questioning everything he believes in.

NFL Week #15: Pick ‘Em

Carl from Miami + Miller Genuine

Carl: Whoa! The Big Man is on a little streak here–I went 3-1 last week. Miller intelligently agreed with my picks, so he also won last week. The Madden Simulator missed ‘em all, and Simmons went 1-3. This brings our standings to: 1) Miller Genuine: 29-19; 2) Simmons: 25-23; 3) Carl the Magnificent: 24-24; 4) Madden Simulator: 22-26. That weakling Miller will probably match my picks the rest of the way, just to avoid me catching him down the home stretch. Big Carl is coming on strong!

Miller + Carl = Scared, Complaining Girls

Furious Falcoholic

I may be a sensative fellow, however, I recently got word that my comrades have, well, fucked me.  That’s right, I’ve been betrayed (as Dale Gribble would say, they “betrayed me like a betrayer”).  What has brought that on you may ask (“you” being the one reader of this post)?  Carl and Miller have not only turned their backs against the Falcons, but also, they hope that my beloved dirty birds LOOSE.  And I thought they were sympathetic to me and my love for the Falcons.

NFL Pick ‘Em: Week #14

Carl from Miami + Miller Genuine

Chiefs at Broncos (favored by 10)

Carl: Chiefs.  I specifically put this pick in, just because I know Miller hates picking their games.

Miller:  My golden rule of football gambling this year — all divisional matchups in the AFC West are a complete toss up.  Always take the underdog.  Chiefs.

As the NFL season pulls to the home stretch here is how our bettors are doing:

NFL Crime Blotter/Michael Vick Report

Will from D.C.

We’re hoping to make the NFL crime/Vick report a regular feature.  Although the NFL is not in the habit of letting us down, the bar has been set high as of late.
