Week 7 Picks Against the Spread
It's Thursday night and I just got home from a date that I did not want to be on but I went because a friend of mine convinced me to go and I felt bad about being there because it was never going to result to anything long term. I don't like misleading people, like the NY Giants, specifically Eli Manning, mislead me this past off season that he still had something left in the tank and the Giants would be good this year. So much hate but at least NBA season started this week; a saving grace when your favorite football team sucks and the NFL makes you sad now.

Steelers Tame Bengals, Dominance in "the Jungle" Continues
Ben Roethlisberger continues their dominance over Cincinnati as Pittsburgh wins a thriller in Cincinnati 28-21. The Steelers win was not only heartbreaking for the Bengals and their fans, but it was a huge statement sent to the NFL.

Can the #19 Hawkeyes Make the Playoff?
In a conference that seems to be the Ohio State show every week, the Iowa Hawkeyes are not backing down without a fight. Iowa doesn't have the toughest schedule. They have faced a good Iowa State team and Wisconsin so far. They have to play a ranked Penn State and Northwestern who currently leads the Big Ten West standings. If Iowa can win-out, are they worthy enough to be in the playoff?

Week 5 Picks Against the Spread
So it's Thursday night. The NY Giants are playing and Eli Manning currently looks like shit (not a surprise) and I contemplate why I still watch this god forsaken sport. I talk about how much the NFL sucks all the time and yet I am still watching. I guess I have a sickness; whatever. At least Saquon Barkley is fun to watch but other than that, screw everything that is New York Giants related. Puke city. What's crazy is that last season, when Ben McAdoo benched Eli last year and everyone (myself included) maybe he was on to something. Whatever, I am done with the Giants this year. NBA season can not start fast enough for ya boy.

Fantasy Football Top 5s for All Positions
QBs 1. Kirk Cousins vs Arizona The Vikings are going against one of the five worst teams on both offense and defense, the Arizona Cardinals. Even though Cousins got hammered by the Bills a couple of weeks ago, this should be an easy win for Kirk and the Vikings.

Steel Kicking
Sunday’s 41-17 home win over the Atlanta Falcons was huge for the Pittsburgh Steelers. Tomlin and Roethlisberger passed Chuck Noll and Terry Bradshaw for most all-time wins as a Head Coach-QB Tandem in Steelers history. They also looked confident and relevant again.

NFL Week 5 Picks Against the Spread
NFL Week 5 As I write this (Sunday morning, October 7), the Giants are basically done after looking like crap at home against the Saints in week 4. Eli looked like crap again and it will probably be another long year for the NYG.

For the Love of the Game: Fantasy Football and Other Soul Crushing Reasons to Keep Watching the NFL
So it's already week 4 of the NFL season. Can't believe we are a month in already. My feelings on the NFL as a whole are very mixed; it's entertaining yet the level of play is poor, the coaching has been really bad across the league and the refs don't seem to know the rules anymore. With all that said, there have been some fantastic finishes and a monster upset (the Bills winning outright while being a 17 point underdog last week).
