The NFL season has reached wk 8 - just about half way through the season. There are quite a few surprises this season as the NY Jets and Jax Jags have emerged as solid contenders for the NFL title, while the NE patriots and Philly eagles continue their strong play from last year - currently standing unbeaten. Pittsburgh (in the AFC North) and Jacksonville (in the AFC South) are my outside picks to top their respective conferences.
Sportsline.com has many hosts who follow the game closely and make regular tips each week. I thought it would be great to put my tips up against those of the mushi for the rest of the season. Lets see if those many hours poring over stats tables, win/loss columns and scouring NFL websites for tidbits of information adds up to tipping brilliance!
So without further ado here goes for Wk 8:
(game, followed by Des tips then Jen tips; following the US style that includes the points spread)
Bal v Phi -7.5 Phi Phi
Ari V Buf -3 Ari Ari
NYG v Min -6.5 NYG Min
Cin v Ten -3 Cin Ten
Ind V KC +1 KC KC
Det v Dal -3 Det Det
Jax V Hou -1 Jax Jax
Atl v Den -7 Den Den
Car v Sea -8 Sea Sea
NE v Pit +3 NE NE
Oak v SD -6 SD Oak
SF v Chi -2 SF CHi
GB v Was +1.5 GB GB
Mia V NYJ -7 Mia Mia
Will keep u posted on the results!
And finally cheers to the Boston Red Sox who swept the St Louis Cardinals to win the World Series! They came back from an impossible position of 0-3 in the conference championship vs the NY Yankees - a feat that no team has ever done before in the 80 something year history of baseball!
The Yankees (with all the class and money) vs the proverbial underdogs in the Boston Red Sox (who hadn't won the world series since 1918 - and jinxed by the "Curse of the Bambino" - a supposed hex against the team since their failure to win the world series since trading away Babe Ruth) was always going to be a great series and it didn't disappoint.
The Sports Guy is a big fan of Red Sox - check his articles out here and here to get an idea of how much baseball means to these sports-crazy americans!
Don't u love sport! :)

Hey! My tipping isn’t just random you know – I spend many hours analysing the colours of the teams and what their mascots are, not to mention which team is better looking!!! :)
it's a bit frustrating when u make ur tips so willy nilly ... I think u might have spent err 3mins making ur tips!
And what’s the score now?? I think we are still on even steven’s grounds even though we are both pretty pathetic and only picked 4 games right!!! :)
Blogged domestics. Love it. Thought i'd break up the love in the air with a comment from someone outside the family. Not a fan of these sign-in-blogger-comments tho.
