It's that time again, Week 16 NFL picks!


Hot Bitch of the Day:
Taylor Swift
I'm not to familiar with her music, but Taylor Swift has topped the Billboard 200 once again for the 2nd straight week. If she's keeping losers like Kanye and Lil' Wayne out of the top spot, she's a winner in my book! And as you can see, she's hot too. It all adds up to one thing. Taylor Swift, Hot Bitch of the Day!



Album of the Week:
Ghostface Killah - Gho$tDeini the Great


Ghostface released a greatest hits album of sorts this week featuring tracks from his 3 albums under Def Jam, including 2 new songs. What makes this the album of the week? One of the 2 new tracks is titled "Ghostface Christmas". I couldn't find a link to the song, but I do have this to give you an idea.



NFL Weekly Picks: Week 16


It's that time again for Rick and I to make our Weekly NFL picks. As always our picks are based on the point spread of each game. Unfortunately, Stan will not be making picks this week. Here are the results from last week's picks:

Rick: 12-4
Conor: 11-5
Stan: 6-10

We will probably get Stan's picks sometime tomorrow and post his results next week. But for now the blog must go on! Here are the Week 16 picks.....


Indianapolis -6.5 @ Jacksonville


Rick: Indy
Conor: Jacksonville

Apparently Jacksonville hasn't packed it in, despite Fred Taylor's comments last week. Indy failed to cover against Detroit...and they really don't beat anybody by more than 6. They were one Sage Rosenfels Apocalypse away from a lost season. Why should I trust them here with nothing to play for? - Conor

Baltimore @ Dallas -4.5

Rick: Dallas
Conor: Dallas

Flacco on the Road. It sounds like an Old Western movie. Unfortunately this is football. Sorry young Joe Flacco, I can't take you here. - Conor

Pittsburgh @ Tennessee -1.5

Rick: Pitt
Conor: Tenn

There's word that Tennessee is conceding home field advantage in order to get healthy for the playoffs. Who says Pittsburgh won't do the same thing? I still like Tenn at home.

Miami -5 @ Kansas City

Rick: Miami
Conor: KC

At this point it seems that Herm Edwards is openly trying to lose his job. Only it's everybody else around him getting the boot. How he's still there I'll never know. With that said, KC has been formidable at home. I like them to just cover here. - Conor


Arizona @ New England -9

Rick: New England
Conor: New England

Kind of a shady line if you ask me. New England really isn't that good. The Cardinals are locked in at the 4 seed though and really have nothing to play for. They could mail it in. - Conor

Cincinnatti @ Cleveland -3

Rick: Cincinnatti
Conor: Cincinnatti

Fitzpatrick vs. Dorsey. That sounds like a litigation case or an epic chess match. And then when you realize those are the names of two starting quarterbacks on Sunday.... Ladies and Gentlemen, you have your worst game of the week. - Conor


Philadelphia -4 @ Washington

Rick: Philadelphia
Conor: Philadelphia

It's still unclear whether Andy Reid is coaching or trying to figure out what he's going to eat for dinner that night. Is that a clipboard he's holding or a takeout menu? Whatever it is, it's working. - Conor


San Francisco -5.5 @ St. Louis

Rick: San Francisco
Conor: San Francisco

San Francisco has randomly been playing smash mouth ball lately. They can really give and take a pounding. Yes, I mean the football team. (That's the last time. I love San Francisco, really.) - Conor


Atlanta @ Minnesota -3

Rick: Atlanta
Conor: Minnesota

You know you have a suspect quarterback situation when the QB controversy is trying to figure out who will do the least amount of damage when blowing your season. Tavaris Jackson threw for 4 TDs and nobody even cared. I still really like Adrian Peterson here though. - Conor


New Orleans -6.5 @ Detroit

Rick: New Orleans
Conor: New Orleans

This seems like another game Detroit could cover. That is until the 1st quarter happens and they're down 21-0. Sorry Detroit, you're not winning this one either. - Conor


Carolina @ NY Giants -3

Rick: Giants
Conor: Carolina

I still think the Giants were exposed against Philly and Carolina sure would love to grab home field in the NFC (8-0 at home). - Conor


NY Jets -5 @ Seattle

Rick: Seattle
Conor: Seattle

What a garbage win last week after JP Losman served the game winning TD on a silver platter. I really think this could be it for the Jets. This is one of those classic games they blow. - Conor


Houston -7 @ Oakland

Rick: Houston
Conor: Houston

Has there ever been one play that completely changed the direction of a season for two teams? The Colts were pretty much left for dead until Sage Rosenfels came to the rescue. The Texans are a good team, it's a shame what happened to their season. - Conor


Buffalo @ Denver -5.5

Rick: Denver
Conor: Buffalo

I don't even know what to say about either of these teams. Denver seems totally capable of choking their season away these last two weeks. Fortunately for them, Norv Turner is their only real threat. - Conor


San Diego @ Tampa Bay -3.5

Rick: Tampa Bay
Conor: San Diego

Oh, how the mighty have fallen as we watched Phillips Rivers dance around after beating the lowly Chiefs by 1 last Sunday. This San Diego team needs to go away right now. - Conor


Green Bay @ Chicago -4

Rick: Chicago
Conor: Chicago

Green Bay won the title for most underachieving team this season with their loss at Jacksonville last week. How much longer till we start the Monday Night Football curse? Is it me or has there only been like 2 legitimate matchups worth watching on Monday Night this year? I don't think it's me. Be smart and take Chicago. - Conor
