Alabama ov 44 tide even without Igram have too much on O not to put up some points Joe Pa still comes in with some play makers as well would lean toward BAMA on the side.
|
Agree that Tide will be able to put up pts, but not sure Lions Frosh QB will be able to keep up his end of the bargain. Figure it's going to take 14-17 pts from PSU to get this one over...not sure that's gonna happen.

Unfamiliar with the movie, other than to have seen it quoted or referenced, but was shocked that Louis CK wrote and directed it.
His new show on FX is hit or miss, but overall Louis CK pretty damn funny.

I'll throw a little NFL play out for the weekend.
6 pt tease:
Giants -1
Colts Over 40.5
Saints would be my side on Thursday. Vikings O-line is not where it needs to be.

Not sure why Carolina is taking money in that game.Lot's of 6.5's out there now.
I like the Giants in that one and in general to have a pretty good year if they can avoid key injuries.Veteran team didn't need to show much in the preseason just to stay relatively healthy.
SF -3
WASH +4
KC +4.5
Niners are just better in their offensive and defensive lines.That should be the difference there if Smith can take care of the ball.
Dallas offensive line could struggle against the Redskins defense.Looking for a lower scoring field position type game there.Small moneyline play on Washington also.
Opener in the New Arrowhead.Chiefs have some homerun hitters-Arenas in the return game,McCluster and Charles on offense.Charley Weis should do wonders for Matt Cassell.Bowe looks like he's ready to contribute.Think the home team can hang in this one.Small moneyline play on KC also.

LV Kings: I like all your Picks but concerned about the Broncos starting 3 OL that have zero starts in the NFL prior to this game. This fact will probably keep me off the Broncos and the game as I also don't have much faith in Jags...

Players are calling Roger Goodell --- “Roger the Dodger”
Could we really be headed for a lockout? It would seem impossible that either the owners or the players could be THAT stupid.
Cleveland Browns, linebacker Scott Fujita asked of Goodell:
“What do the owners want? What’s it going to take to get a deal done?”
“I can’t answer that,” Goodell replied.
“You’re the NFL commissioner,” Fujita shot back. “You’re here as the mouthpiece for the owners, and you can’t even tell us what they want? The CBA is up in March. Don’t you think you need to start giving us some answers?”
With the Colts some players admonished Goodell with swear words, to the point where star quarterback Peyton Manning was embarrassed by their behavior. Veteran center Jeff Saturday another executive committee member, cut the meeting short to keep the situation from escalating further.

THREE KEY paragraphs to the battle from the owner's perspective...
The owners, particularly a faction of aggressive, entrepreneurial Goodell confidants (Jerry Jones, Robert Kraft, Pat Bowlen, Jerry Richardson) who want a CBA that accounts for the high-risk investments they’ve made on new stadiums and other capital expenditures. For the most part, the owners are unified in their belief that they agreed to a lousy deal when the current CBA was extended in 2006, and that the players currently receive too great a share of their adjusted gross revenues.
Upshaw successfully got Tagliabue to sell a deal that gave the players 59.6 percent of total revenue and implemented a revenue-sharing plan in which the league’s 15 highest-earning franchises subsidized the 17 teams that earned the least. A little more than two years after agreeing to the extension by a 30-2 vote, the owners unanimously voted to opt out of the deal two years early.
Revenue sharing fails to address the reality that some teams (such as the Cincinnati Bengals and Arizona Cardinals) have favorable stadium deals that call for little or no expenditures from the organization while other owners, such as Jones, Denver’s Pat Bowlen or the Green Bay Packers, took out massive loans for new or renovated stadiums. Thus, someone such as the Panthers’ Richardson might be forced to write an eight-figure check that subsidizes a peer such as the Bengals’ Mike Brown(notes), who is actually making a far greater profit because of his relatively low overhead.

One other possibility
The UFL could provide players with a safe haven?
Absolutely. Some believe the United Football League, which debuted in ’09 and is about to begin its second season, was launched with a potential lockout in mind. As one NFL source speculates, “It was the equivalent of betting the Don’t Pass Line in craps – it was banking on a lockout, so it could be there to fill the void.” In theory, the upstart league could rapidly expand beyond its current vision of six teams for the 2011 season and provide jobs for many of the NFL’s high-profile players during a work stoppage.
