Beating Bill Simmons 2009: Super Bowl

Saturday, February 6, 2010 22:40

I'll keep this short and sweet. I didn't do nearly as well as I have in the past with my postseason picks. Hell, there's a chance I'll finish below .500 for the first time in my three years of picks. But for the second year in a row, I'll beat ...

Beating Bill Simmons 2009: Conference Championships

I'm far from happy with my .500 record in the playoffs this year. But I realized last week I can chalk that up to the Ravens and the Cardinals. In the Wild Card round, I undervalued both teams. In the Divisional playoffs, I overvalued both teams. Since...

I went 2-2 with my picks last weekend. Pretty pathetic.But then I looked at ESPN's eight so-called experts. Only one of them did better than I did. Monday Night Football's Ron Jaworski went 0-4 in his wild card picks.And so did Simmons.BOO-YAH!Here are...

It's the final week of the 2009 NFL season and I am three games behind Bill Simmons. This is a hard week to pick because it's hard to tell which teams will be resting their starters. So here goes my best shot (home teams in CAPS, Bill's picks in red):B...

Beating Bill Simmons 2009: Week Sixteen

Thursday, December 24, 2009 22:24

Ok. I didn't gain any ground on Simmons last week, but I didn't lose any ground, either. We picked five games differently last week, but we both went 2-2-1 in those games, so it was a wash. So I am still only three games behind Bill, only now with just...
