Wow, too much Civil War football going on for the Oracle to even care that the battle for NY and the rights to the bottom of Lake Eerie were on the line as the Nils and the Jets did their best to play worse than the other team. But, no prediction was necessary as the entire world should have known that the Nils would fall to the Jets, playing a miserable game and being nearly shut out in the second half while the Jets sputtered to victory on one engine three field goals. Good enough to beat the Nils, but as the Oregon State Beavers found out last night, not enough to beat the Oregon Ducks.
But I digress again....
The frozen turkey is spinning, and it's starting to thaw as the garage is not quite cold enough these days, and here are the Oracle's predictions for this week's run to the Moldy Carpet:
Bootineers 14
Pansies 24
(Pansies stink, but the Boots' socks stink more)
Lambs 13
Cubs (Bears) 10
(Yes, that's right, the Lambs win as the Bears are worse right now)
Lions 17
Bengals 24
Broncos 24
Cheaps 3
Raydurz 10
Steelers 30
Saints 42
Deadskins 12
Patriots 21
Floppers 17
(Floppers might actually win this one, they are so unstable!)
Chargers 48
Brownies 0
Gentleman, trash your talk and make your predictions!

I gotta go with ya on the Brownie score. It might be a historic game! Brownie fans on beer support!!
ReplyDeleteLambs are gonna win, eggchair!
I picked the Pansies, but you may be right on the Boots. Of course, it's in your best interest for them to win...so there!
Floppers will probably win, but I am still picking them to flop on the deck again like a piked salmon. Where's the lemons? This one's smoked and ready....
Eggchair, aren't you being just a tad conservative on that Charger- Brownie game? Floppers over the Pats?? Pats are reeling? Huge letdown? Ricky Williams taking the Pats O-line out on Saturday night?
ReplyDeleteBong-hits 'til dawn? I think Saints let down, and only get 28.
Not that it's on the radar, but I almost nailed the Jets-Nils game. 43 Jet rushes (I said 45). 10 Nils First Downs (I said 7). I'm getting good at this. It's almost like it's easier to size a team up when you focus on what they are terrible at, and assume they are going to come through in that department. Something like 15 completed passes between the two teams. 14 punts. Cellar ball ALL THE WAY.
