Minn/Tennessee - Two interesting teams with lots of strengths but with QB issues. I'd go with TN, who has the better back-up QB, but I feel like 'Sota is due for a big break. I'm thinking they win because their defense or special teams puts up some points.

Cardinals v Jets - Two gunslingers always makes for an exciting game. Will the Man-gina let Favre be Favre? He'll need to if he wants to score enough to stay in the game. Which means Favre blows the game and throws interceptions that turn into scores for AZ.

Battle of the Bays, Green v Tampa - I got the Greens. Tampa is supposed to be pretty good, but I can't name anyone on that team except for the coach.

Philly v Chicago - Philly should blow out Chicago, but that should be fun to watch anyway. McNabb is the man.

Dallas v Skins - Sorry, I can't take the Skins seriously, Dallas might have a let down, but they are the class of the league since Brady went down, and still win this game.

After watching Chambers and Jackson run all over the jets secondary, I think Warner could go for 400 today. That may not be enough to win, but it should be entertaining to watch. Too bad I get the Houston-Jacksonville game instead.

But the main sports related question on my mind is "Will Moose win 20?" This is a cool day. Most of the time, when chasing these records, there is an air on inevitability about them. Bonds, once he got within ten of Aaron, was going to hit 756. Guys are going to get 3,000 hits or 500 homeruns. Moose already holds the record for most wins in MLB history without ever winning 20. And if he doesn't beat the Sox today, it is tough to believe he will ever be able to pull it off. So this is likely to be his last bite at this apple. It is crazy to think that this one start will have a tangible impact on his HOF candidacy, but it probably does. (Although, putting up 19 wins this season does move him close enough to think that 300 is still a realistic possibility, which would end serious debate.)

Between that and the Twins trying to win the Central - nice week for the White Sox, needing to win two games in their last week and choking it up repeatedly - I will be watching more baseball than football today.

Also, the Niners have Isaac Frickin' Bruce, who I believe is a few weeks shy of his 59th birthday. The Reverend lives...

On a unrelated note - GO METS!!! (AND CUBS!!!)

Devastating Dallas Defeat, F.t Worth cries itself to sleep!

But it's not on 'til tomorrow, so just bite your lip and suffer through Browns-Bengals like the rest of us.

... right into the defenders hands, arg!

If the Jets actually blow this game against the Cardinals, they need to put out a suicide watch on the Verrazano.

Ha. Nicely done, sir. I myself am waiting for the Bears-Eagles game on primetime. I can't believe they gave my guys two night games already after the dismal record we posted last year, but it's great because this is the only I'll get to see them here in Boston. If Westbrook is out and McNabb isn't 100 percent we may able to steal this thing.

Here's hoping, anyways.

My new advice: best against Philly, who I picked to win easily.

I also pick McCain over Obama.

God, if you exist,(and I'm pretty sure you don't) please bless my Rams with a victory or two for the season.

Good night and good luck. Assholes.

Actually, that would have been a very different game if the last two minutes had gone somewhat differently. And that last Dallas drive was a thing of workmanlike beauty. Great drive.

And I especially loathe Tom Jackson. He's a fucking blowhard and the worst of the Tom Brady kool-aid drinkers. He went on and on last week about how the NFL was irrevocabl damaged due to Brady's injury, and about how difficult it would be for the league to adjust to "life after Tom Brady". Pathetic.

Merrill Hodge is also a douche.

GO BEARS!!!!

Jason Campbell is a comer. If he's on, the 'skins are dangerous.

YEEEE-HAWWW!!!!

The last 17 seconds could get interesting...

By the way, a great way to avoid the TV blowhards (at least in the DC area): Turn on Redskins Radio and click the mute button on the TV. The radio's usually a few seconds ahead, which makes for some odd timing, but you get Sonny and Sam instead of whatever dips the networks have called in.

Just avoid ESPN after losses, dude. That's all I can tell you. At least for a few days.
