Last week, I beat my buddies in our head to head pool. But I only tied Rachelle. I beat the boys but could only manage a tie against a girl. Last week was a bad week for injuries. I picked the Steelers and then it turned out afterwards that Roethlisberger was not playing. Had I known Big Ben would be out, I could have picked BAL and had 3 losses to Rachelle's 4. Ego injury.
Speaking of injuries, Mike Huckabee suffered a serious, possibly "season ending" injury this week when Maurice Clemmons, who had his sentence commuted by Huckabee, killed 4 cops in Washington State.
I decided, after much dithering of course, that I needed a "surge" in my football picks. So I consulted a friend of mine who's an expert on sports and checked all the team injury reports and stats. As commander in chief of my football picks, let me be clear: Rachelle Friberg - the girl who keeps trying to beat me - is still in San Diego and still on Twitter.
So I want the American people to understand that we have a clear and focused goal: to disrupt, dismantle, and defeat Rachelle Friberg in our football pool, and to prevent her return to the winner's spot in the future. That is the goal that must be achieved. That is a cause that could not be more just. And to the rest of those who oppose my picks, my message is the same: we will defeat you.
This week, I picked a lot of road teams. There are a lot of home underdogs this week as well, which makes the road picks look much better. I'm usually leery about picking too many road teams. But I look at it like this. If you took Sarah Palin on the road, you won this week. 1 million books sold within 2 weeks. Not bad.
AND NOW THE WINNING PICKS:
