Hmmm, My Picks Were a Little Off
I didn't have a particularly good weekend on the "Picks" front. So, let's see here, I picked the Seahawks over the Redskins. That was good. I said they would win by 10 and they did. Other than that I would say I got thrown for a few huge losses. The Patriots made too many errors including 5 turnovers, which is highly uncharacteristic. Tom Brady was off the mark on too many throws that could have changed the game. This was definitely his worst playoff appearance, and one of his worst games ever. So much for continuing the dynasty this year. Oh well.
The Steelers really took it to the Colts. I am always afraid of the Steelers. I grew up in Cleveland and am a huge Browns fan. The Steelers were never any good when I was growing up, but in the seventies they really changed. Now I never lose the sense that they are a lurking giant, not to be counted out until they are actually eliminated, stone cold dead. They proved it again. They are one tough SOB team. Congrats to them. I do feel sorry for the Colts. They are a great team, who had some bad luck at the end of the year. Plus they have been so close the past few years. I would like to see them break through. A friend of mine is a big Colts' fan. He has been suffering for years, though not as long as I have. I will probably see him this evening with tears still in his eyes.
Finally, the Panthers and Bears....The Panthers are hot. They really stepped up their play in December. They are playing some inspired football, no question. They thrashed the Giants last week and look great yesterday.. I think next week's game with the Seahawks is going to be a real slugfest. It will definitely be fun.
One out of four isn't too good. My fortune telling career doesn't look promising. But next week will be MUCH better.
