The Hoser's NFL Pick 2009, Week Six: NFL picks that are still looking for a Dr. Zoidberg costume for Halloween.
How in the world are the Eagles (or every Raiders opponent) not at least in the Trifecta???

both the Olympic flame and the Chicago River burning at the same time.
It's the Cuyahoga River through Cleveland that burns.

The Chicago River has a long tradition of catching fire, which sort of makes it the anti-Cub waterway.
Upton Sinclair wrote about it in The Jungle.

Because the spread is two touchdowns, and it's too difficult to guess when coaches are going to pull their starters for the game. Yes, Oakland is awful, but even a 23-0 game at the half can be 30-17 at the end of the game when the Raiders are playing their first team against the opposition's third team.

Yes, we're still on New England's jock. No, we'll never learn.
So long as you don't pick them for your pick of the week anymore. You were very funny this week. You work well under pressure.
I hope you are right about the Bucs finally winning one!
