Let me take a second to offer thanks... Amen.
Okay, okay-- Saturday finds the Wed Byrds going Putty Tat hunting in Carolina. Their defense will hold Cam just enough in check to win a trip to Seahagville next week--
The Old Browns visit the Old Stoolers and what hits then fan up there will not be pretty. I flipped a coin here and after four straight tails, heads finally came up. The Black Byrds from Crab City pull out a win--
Sunday finds Good/Bad Andy facing Manning Heavy. Gotta go with the old man, Broncos prevail--
My Boys offensive line will keep Ndamneddonkeykong Suh from cutting off Tony's head with a dull knife, so... there will be joy in Jerryworld!
Now, all y'all get your picks in... 'cause I'm only buying one more round!
But Barn-- It's-- It's-- It's Aaron... and it's porn!
Get your picks in right away, big... or I'm putting in my bullet!
Suh was a naughty boy, he won’t be allowed to play this week.
Suh appealed and got reinstated :-(
“Sunday finds Good/Bad Andy facing Manning Heavy. Gotta go with the old man, Broncos prevail—”
Uh, I do not think that the Broncos are playing this weekend. ;-)
Gadzooks, spel-- I'm a drunk... so you have to take that into consideration.
So, let's make that Old Man Luck that gets a win for his Colts--
question.

#1 plays the weakest survivor

Got reinstated, just has to pay a $70,000 fine.
Cardinals, Colts, Steelers, Cowboys.
But it’s only the Cowboys that matter.

I know you, big... you just want another Ice Bowl... next week!
Well, big-- Just be wary of getting... exactly what you wish--
Gadzooks, Iron-- You sure got that... right!
Sorry, I wrote that after I just got back from work and hadn’t heard.
Of course, the NFL should’ve gotten rid of this clown long ago, he’s got a long history of jerk conduct, but just like the Ray Rice thing, the NFL keeps procrastinating until something serious inevitably happens - then all the hard questions come out after it’s too late.
Let’s hope the Cowboys keep this idiot safely quarantined.

Playoffs - Wild-Card Weekend
SAT, JAN 3
Arizona at Carolina 4:20 PM Bank of America Stadium Two strong defenses. One just-above-average offense (on the Carolina side that is...). Just don't see how the Cardinals can muster enough points for a W. Yes, the Panthers kinda backed in, but they have won four in a row, and looked pretty damn strong in obliterating the Falcons last Sunday. Panthers have become, after seventeen weeks, the team most projected them to be in the preseason. Cam and Company win this one. Panthers.
Baltimore at Pittsburgh 8:15 PM NBC Heinz Field My Ravens certainly look like a sixth seed, and are only 'in' because they mustered a seventeen-point fourth-quarter against the self-destructing Browns, whom I think were stilll hungover from Johnny Football's Friday night bash, and a Chargers loss. Nevertheless, they're 'in' and actually match up well with the Steelers (one could say it was a fantastic effort and year for the Ravens to make the playoffs given all the off-the-field scandal). And Le'Veon Bell is hurt. However.... the Ravens pass D is weak, weak, weak, and Ben R is having a career year and if given time, will pick the Ravens' secondary apart. I hate to say it, but Steelers win.
SUN, JAN 4
Cincinnati at Indianapolis 1:05 PM CBS Lucas Oil Stadium No way Luck loses to Dalton in this Andy Bowl. Luck to T Y Hilton will be called a lot and Cincy's postseason losing streak will be extended. Colts.
Detroit at Dallas 4:40 PM FOX AT&T Stadium Bendy, it might be better for your 'Boys if they were playing this game at Detroit. However they're at home. Somethings to love about the Lions - Matthew Stafford and Calvin Johnson. But on defense they are simply a dirty team and Suh has gotten himself reinstated for the game.... hard to root for them.. The Pack ran on them last week, so I don't see them stopping Murray ... and who could not love what Romo has done this season? 'Boys win!
So, Suh me
The Number 1 seed, by conference, gets the lowest surviving seed, next week, at home. For instance, if the Ravens win, they’ll play at New England next week.
But no Kurt Warner and no Jake Delhomme this year!
Hate to say this I think your Cowpokes over BIG kitty cats
