Week Six
Last Week: 0-3-0 (oh poo)
Season: 6-7-2
Let’s not talk about last week. Let’s pretend it didn’t happen. I feel like the girl you see walking away from the C Float in St. Paul’s Harbor at 10am on a Saturday morning. The only highlight was I bet the news director a beer Dallas would come back and win with six minutes left in the game and Big D down to Buffalo 16-24. He should have bet me double or nothing that Romo wouldn't fumble the snap on the game winning field goal attempt. Now that I think about it, does he even hold anymore? If you think kickers get little respect, what about holders? Laces out, baby, laces out. Well I’m leaving for Seattle soon and have a case of the short timers so I’ll be snappy with Nix Pix Week Six.
Tennessee @ Tampa Bay -3
I’m going with the Titans cuz I’m a strong believer in Italian QBs.
Nick’s Pick: TITANS
New Orleans +6 ½ @ Seattle
I’m going to be at this Sunday night affair so loom for me in the southern end zone between the posts on the extra point views. I’m the sexy one in white. The last time the Ain’ts visited Qwest Filed I witnessed a guy rooted against Seattle on the other end of my row get into a fight and ejected. If you are surprised New Orleans fans are that rowdy then you should know the guy was decked out in Raider gear. Yes, an Oakland fan went to a Seahawks-Saints game, got into a fight, and was kicked out. I think my starting the Raiders Suck chant in the entire section had something to do with it. I hope.
Nick’s Pick: SEAHAWKS (yes, I realize I picked them last week and they got shut out for the first time in five years so shut up)
New England -5 ½ @ Dallas
I have to admit this should be the Sunday night game or really the Monday night game. Sadly I’ll probably miss it because I’ll be tailgating out of THE FAN VAN (see above) all afternoon. I think the emotional high of getting lucky Monday night will give way to the next game letdown and SuperDave will be dancing in the streets with Doug Letch and the thousands of other Boston fans in Kodiak. It wasn’t like this when I was a kid. I only knew one Patriots fan in elementary school and his name was Timmy Timmons. Timmy bet somebody that if Dallas beat New England he’d switch loyalties from his team to the Cowboys. Dallas won. He switched. I never understood this bet. I never will.
