Let’s get right to this week’s picks. Favored team first, the spread in parentheses, and who I’m picking in bold. Me against Hobbson, loser gets filled with shame (and also donates $20 to the Lance Armstrong Foundation).
School is now in session. Let the embarrassment begin.
* * *
At Detroit (-3.5) Cleveland — Detroit.
At Jacksonville (-8.5) Buffalo — Jacksonville. [Wrong. -RH]
Pittsburgh (-10) At Kansas City — Pittsburgh.
Indianapolis (-1) At Baltimore — Indianapolis.
At NY Giants (-7) Atlanta — NY Giants. [Pfffffft. Very wrong. Take the Falcons. -RH]
At Green Bay (-6.5) San Francisco — San Fransisco. [Wrong again. -RH]
At Minnesota (-10.5) Seattle — Minnesota.
At Dallas (-11) Washington — Dallas.
New Orleans (-11.5) At Tampa Bay — New Orleans.
Arizona (-9.5) At St. Louis — Arizona.
At New England (-10.5) NY Jets — New England.
Cincinnati (-9.5) At Oakland — Cincinnati.
Philadelphia (-3) At Chicago — Chicago. [Nope. Eagles in a rout. This is the week Jay Cutler goes all Richie Tenenbaum when he takes off his cleats & sits Indian style on the 8 yard line, weeping softly. -RH]
San Diego (-4) At Denver — San Diego.
At Houston (-4.5) Tennessee — Tennessee. [Even George Phillips thinks this is wrong. Because it IS! Take the Texans. -RH]

How is this related to racing of any automotive conveyance?

Oh, it most assuredly is NOT! Therein lies the mystique.

I ttally agree with the Monday night pick. The Titans are on a r-r-r-roll. The only game left on their schedule that they will lose is to the (ahem) Colts. Can’t see them pulling that one out.
As for this being racing related…these are picks by Lindy on an IndyCar racing site. That’s about as Indy racing-related that you can get just before Thanksgiving. Go Vols!

You’re new to these parts, yes? Welcome, friend.

$20 whole dollars? Roy, you should really save some of your salary for the Christmas fund. What are Roy Jr and RayJ gonna do for Christmas? And Mrs. Hobbson is going to be pissed if you don’t get her the new Jimmie Johnson Happy Meal set from McD’s. It’s a collectible!
BTW, Washington to cover.

U-S-A!!! U-S-A!!!

OK Roy, what about tomorrow? Will Detroit return to Thanksgiving Day prominence? Will the evil gleam from the eye of the “President of the General Partner” be enough to propel the Raiders to “Just Win, Baby”?
