Week 1 picks

Well, the NFL season is finally upon us, and as I write, I am for the first time in a decade not very excited about the Bucs V.2009. For the past decade we had experience at the helm, Tony Dungy or Jon Gruden and the playoffs were always within sight, we even managed to sneak a Super Bowl win in there too. This years campaign though will be another story. A brutal schedule which sees the Bucs play all 4 teams in the NFC East within the first 6 weeks, a "home" game in London against the Patriots, a clueless head coach, fired offensive coordinator a week ago, and the possibility of blackouts for the first time since Ray Jay was built. It's possible that the Detroit Lions will win more games than the Bucs this year. Sad Bucs fans, very sad.

Enough of the downer, here's this weeks picks-
Pittsburgh over Tennessee tonight
Atlanta over the Miami Mullets
Baltimore over Kansas City
Philadelphia Felons over Carolina kitty cats
Cincy over Denver
Minnesota over Cleveland
Houston over the J-E-T-S jets jets jets
Indy over Jacksonville
New Orleans over Detroit (large I mean atleast 20 points)
Dallas over Tampa Bay
Arizona over Nancy Pelosi's hometown 49ers ( I hope the 49ers go winless)
NY G-Men over the Washington Crackheads
Seattle over St Louis
Chicago over Green Bay
New England over Buffalo
San Diego over Oakland

This is the most wonderful time of the year. Good luck to fans of all teams and to those of you I'm playing in fantasy football, God speed 'cause I'm gonna kick ass this year.
