Week 1 Results

To me, weeks one and two are the hardest to pick because you never really know how a team will do the first game. Then in week two you don’t know how well they’ll adjust, or if week one was a fluke. Regardless, I’m still disappointed with my picks. I ended up 7-9 (.435) on the week.

My sure thing pick was wrong, of course. I should’ve made Green Bay over Detroit my sure thing. Oh wait, that would have been wrong too. My third choice was Cincinnati over Cleveland, where I finally would’ve been right!

My apologies to Willie Parker of Pittsburgh who stepped up to prove me wrong. Kurt Warner looked awful to prove me wrong. At least Jake Plummer played awful to prove me right. I used to be a huge Plummer fan, but he’s been in the league way too long to still play that bad. It means he’s not going to get any better either.

The Monday night game was crazy, but good! Even better was the fact that T.O. got no big plays! He got a good amount of yards, but didn’t seem in synch with McNabb. I wonder why that is? I’m only wondering why they threw to him 19 times.

Could the MNF halftime show be any lamer? I hope they’re not doing the Tim McGraw thing every week. I never thought I’d miss seeing the brothers Gramatica singing with Santana. Who thought Jimmy Kimmel was a good idea? If I wanted someone squinty and whiny I’d go find former VJ Kevin Seal.
