Week 10 certainties

The king (*me) is back. I was one point from being 4-0 last week. I should have known better than to take a 4 point line. I don't know if you guys are the same, but I have certain numbers that I like and don't like. For instance, I love laying and hate getting 6 and a hook or 2 and a hook, and I love getting but hate laying numbers like 4 and 8. I am still debating with myself whether that is retarded or not. It's me so it probably is. Just go with the odds there.

Mike and I talked about this a little, but I am embarrassed as a Skins fan about how FedEx was overrun by Steelers fans on Monday night. I fucking hate Steelers fans so much, and those subhuman fucks should not be allowed to go into our house like that. What the fuck is wrong with this city? RFK used to be notorious for having a huge home field advantage. Where the fuck did that go? My gut tells me that this has a lot to do with how this team has been run from a business perspective, and I therefore blame Dan Snyder. And this brings up a side issue. It is such a pain in the ass to go to Skins games. I love watching Skins games live more than most other things in the whole world, but I hate the experience (getting to and from the stadium, parking, price gouging even for a sporting event, etc.). I hope Snyder changes that if/when he builds the new stadium.

I am not going to go off on the Skins game. I think it is pretty simple, the offense needs a lot of work. There are certain aspects that are really good, mostly the running game. But after starting two straight drives within the Steelers 40, you have to get at least one TD there. And everyone is responsible for that. Another thing, I heard Greg Blache say it best to Carlos Rogers. You are having a great year, but if you want to make it to Hawaii, you have to come up with those plays that he dropped. For fuck sake! Ball handling! Even I am getting tired of hearing myself say that. But the biggest thing is the offense. This is probably a playoff team, but we aren't going anywhere in December or January if we can't convert. The next game against Dallas is going to be huge. I want to see them (team and fans) get the motherfucking beat down. Fuck the Cowboys.

Time for more free money.

Tennessee (-3) at Chicago
This game is the simplest on the board this week. Rex Grossman will not be the QB to beat the Titans D for the first time. If you think he is, then let me know and I will have Tommy go back there and hit you in the head with a tack hammer because you are a fucking retard.

Kansas City (+15 1/2) at San Diego
The Chiefs have been playing tough the past two weeks against two good teams. And the Chargers are not that great. They have a losing record, a shitty D, and their offense is one dimensional. What's with the slap-in-the-face line?

Detroit (+6 1/2) vs. Jacksonville
Didn't I just say that I hate taking this number? But I won last week betting against the Jags covering on the road, and I feel good about doing that again. Their offense is garbage. Don't look it up, but can you name one Jags receiver? I think their number one is white. That should tell you everything you need to know about their passing attack. You won't hear me say this often, but bet on the Lions.

Miami (-8) vs. Seattle
The Seahawks are an unmitigated disaster. Miami has the hot hand. And they have basically the longest trip possible for an NFL team to play a game. Lay the wood and take the Dolphins.

Last week
3-1

For the year
24-11
