Tuesday Rundown


Just a quick reaction tonight as I'm a bit crunched for time...

Dick Jauron needs to be fired for that one. Why call a pass play on 3rd down with a rookie QB when you can just run the ball, eat clock, and take a FG. Ends up getting picked off and all hell breaks loose. Completely unacceptable to have the opposing QB have six giveaways and lose. What kind of possible explanation can Jauron give to Ralph Wilson (looking like Tales From the Crypt repeatedly last night - take a seat old man) and Marv Levy (not far behind him) that could convince them he's competent enough to be a head coach? If that's me, the man doesn't stand a chance.

Wonderful to see the Yankees go down in fine fashion. Let the media frenzy begin. I say blow up the entire regime. Tell Torre to step down on his own or he'll be let go. Can Cashman before he can screw up another off-season by letting A-Rod escape without even putting up a contract offer when he opts out (not if), let Mariano and Posada walk, sign one lower priced veteran pitcher so that Phil, Joba, Ian all don't need to start in the rotation next season, and then make some well-informed signings and tweaks instead of just chucking money every which way. No coincidence in my mind that the Yanks haven't won a title in the 7 years since going over $100 million in payroll.

I ended up 6 of 14 against the spread. This is why I stopped sports gambling and went strictly with poker when I wanna put the money on the line.

As far as Bro's/Hoe's I hit some good and some bad, as to be expected. Let's hope you listened to me on MJD, Alexander, Frerotte, Watson, Steve Smith, Jacobs, Dunn/Norwood, Leinart, Plax/Shockey, DET's rush game, Ronnie B, and Graham. On the other hand, I had some serious brain farts with Leonard, Harrington, Crumpler, Vincent Jackson, Winslow, Brees/Colston, Holmes, and Pittman.

Gotta take the good with the bad I guess but I'm looking for an improvement from myself for next week (50% just isn't going to cut it in this business).

MJD had almost a 100 yards and a TD, Plax had a TD, Jacobs ran for a 100 yards a TD and got one TD called back....So I'd say you had some brain farts on those too.... Don't forget Dallas Clark who had 50 yards and a TD, pretty good for a tight end.

NOTE: Those are all of the players I said would do well last week after you posted them "hoes". What's next, you gonna tell us to bench LT this week against Oakland?

Maybe I'm just bitter because you won fantasy baseball and $1500....FUCK YOU!

Oh and if you and Scott are coming up here for Halloween again, I found your Vietnam Vet -- camo loving, hippie hating, communist bashing costume in my closet yesterday.....

I definitely had MJD, Plax, and Jacobs on my BRO's list, but thanks for pointing out my good picks. Guess my audience has some trouble reading...

I'll give you credit for the Dallas Clark pick though.
