Week 17 picks and My goal for 2012

Last Week: 9-7

Season: 109-115-8

Washington @ Philadelphia (-8 ½): Rumor has it ‘Skins coach Shanahanighans finally has decided to look at college QBs….amazing, after all this time of dealing with career backups. Think the Eagles want to end the season on a high note after sucking so bad in the beginning? Philadelphia

Tampa Bay @ Atlanta (-11): Raheem Morris goes out with a thud on the road. Atlanta

San Francisco (-10 ½) @ St. Louis: I don’t like the line, but I like anything the Rams are doing less. Just a lack of talent. San Francisco.

Chicago @ Minnesota (-1 ½): Chicago has booked their golf trips. Vikings DE Jared Allen is looking for a sack title. Minnesota

Detroit (-3) @ Green Bay: The Lions will play their starters, the Pack will for a half. Detroit

Dallas @ NY Giants (-3): Dallas in a pressure game? Ha. NY Giants

Carolina @ New Orleans (-8 ½): Closer than you would think. Carolina

Tennessee (-2) @ Houston: I loathe the Titans. Houston

Baltimore (-1 ½) @ Cincinnati: The Bengals will be playing in front of a full house. Cincinnati

Pittsburgh (-6) @ Cleveland: Unfortunately for the Steelers, no way the Browns lay down. Pittsburgh

Indianapolis @ Jacksonville (-3 ½): No clue why anyone thinks that the Colts will win this game-their starting QBs wife just had triplets. If you need something to watch, look for Jags RB Maurice Jones-Drew and his push to win the rushing title. Jacksonville

NY Jets @ Miami (-3): I’m a huge Dolphins fan this week. Time to shut up for good, fat boy. Miami

Buffalo @ New England (-10): I must be missing something, my beloved Pats can’t cover the pass. Buffalo

San Diego @ Oakland (-3): I don’t trust this game or the next one. San Diego

Kansas City @ Denver (-3): Come on Orton, win and flip this town off on the way out for the way they dogged you. Think I’m lying? Since Tebow has started at QB, 9 less pass attempts per game. And the Broncos defense has shown up. Way to be professional, play for one QB and not for another. KC

Seattle @ Arizona (-3): Great, the two teams where the weirdness happens. Running games travel. So does a defense. Seattle

With that, those are my regular season picks for this season.

My new year’s resolution? Accountability. One word. Means so many things to me. Own all my shit, the good and the bad. I realize I have expectations of people, but they are with the best of intentions. They will be rewarded in this lifetime for being good people. Doing right by their fellow man, and holding themselves and those around them accountable to being a decent human being. Not a tough task. I hope.

My first phone call to the comedy club for open mic night comes on Monday. It will take 6-8 of them to get on stage. Life is weird, but I’ve learned that the phrase ‘Nothing ventured, nothing gained’ is the truth to the nth degree. Now let’s get to work. Do what you love, you get paid in spades.
