Yup - I got exactly what I needed last week - a perfect 5-0 week to counteract the wonderful results I got from the Red Sox (a sweep) and the Texans (A Schaub interception returned for a game winning TD). I'd be lying if I said that I wasn't surprised by the Red Sox meltdown, but the Texans game - that was a crushing defeat. When you're the only Texans fan in the Tri-State area (possibly even on the East Coast) - and yes, I do in fact own an authentic Demeco Ryans jersey - you take these things to heart. With the complete parity of the AFC this year outside of Denver, Indy and Cinci(?), a wild card spot for my Texans isn't entirely out of the question - though they could easily lose their next 7 straight and guarantee another sub .500 season.
On a random side note, I ran into Joey Simmons a.k.a. Rev. Run (of Run DMC fame) [and someone who looked an awful lot like his slightly more famous brother Russell] this afternoon at Subway on 56th Street of all places. I guess God is Love, as is a foot long meatball marinara sub.
Since it is already Wednesday, I'll make it an easy recap. I picked every game correctly. Navy (-11.5) destroyed Rice, UConn (+7.5) kept it close, Alabama (-4.5) showed that they are a BCS Championship contender, Kent State (+3) lost by one in heartbreaking fashion on Homecoming Weekend, and Michigan State (-4) covered against the Illini. Like Ashton Kutcher, I'm awesome!!
Week 6: 5-0
This season: 14-14-2
Anyhow - for those of you also keeping track, Jeff limped to 1-3-1 this week.
