Told you so…
Vick. Awesomeness. Just proving that strong wills overcome tough circumstances. And for the record, I called it.
It’s a new week.
Cowboys, Colts, Vikings, Eagles, Chargers, Jets, Bengals… What do all these teams have in common? They are all either play-off teams from last year, or play-off hopefuls for 2010. Correct? Anything else? Yup, you got it, they all lost their Week 1 games. And what about these? Redskins, Chiefs, Bucs, Bears…. They all won, and … Continue reading

If I were a betting man…
