So, the previous high for posts has been shattered in the month of August, and we still got one more day left to inflate the state some more. All we needed was a little shot in the arm courtesy of an NFL pre-season. Not much happening over the weekend since neither the NFL nor NCAA have anything to offer us just yet, aside from some 4th quarter baseball which is interesting only if you're into the whole every game counts thing (yawn).
But while you're indoors hiding from the fury of Tropicana Storm Danny, please consider the following question:
We covered the bottom 12 teams (13 if you include the odds-on-favorite- to-win-Super Bowl-XLIII-Buffalo Bills) thus far. Of these teams, who has the best chance of being a sleeper, either finishing above .500 (unexpectedly) and/or making the playoffs?
Comment, if you would.
And, here's what you got coming next week!
- A Defense of Rick Pitino through the prism of Roman Catholic High Christology
- An in-depth interview with Michael Vick: Does he believe that all dogs do go to heaven?
- Athletic programs at faith-based universities; is God truly on their side?
Oh who the fuck are we really kidding here?
- 10 to 12 more NFL Previews? You got it.
Make it a good one e'rbody
Of the teams you covered, I don't believe it's a long shot to go with the Seattle Seahawks. In a division with San Fran, the Rams and the Cards, Seattle has a shot every year. Last year Hasslebeck's injury held the hawks back like Gordon Bombay's shootout mistakes. He's healthy this year, and even though they still don't have a single decent running back...they do have Houshamazud, Dieon Branch, and their team leader in receptions, John Carlson. Mora gets it done this year, Hasslebeck bounces back, and 1st round draft pick Arron Curry, makes an instant impact on defense freeing up Loaf a' tofu.
ReplyDeleteHawks go somehwere between 9-7 and 11-5, beat the Cards once, and sniff the playoffs.....I didn't spell check.
Deuce and Ache-Man... Sucking the Seacock at both ends.
ReplyDeleteAnd Branch sucks.
Child, please. Ache knows the trufe:
ReplyDelete.500 ball is good enough to get it done in the NFC's shitbox.
