Week 16 Picks Against the Spread
It is week 16 in the NFL. We have gotten to the point where there are no more Thursday night games; only Saturday games in addition to the standard Sunday and Monday night slate. Only two weeks left in the regular season—crazy how quick this season has gone.

Random Testing?... Or Relentless Pressing
If you didn’t already know, the NFL conducts drug tests to ensure that their players are sticking to the guidelines in their contract. The NFL Player Contract prohibits any players from using drugs that will enhance or modify their performance. To keep everything just, these tests are done at random and can be applied to any given player. However, these tests don’t seem too just to Eric Reid, Carolina Panthers Defensive Safety. Reid has been selected for random drug testing for the seventh time in the past eleven weeks.

The Amazing Journey of Alabama Quarterback Jalen Hurts
Jalen Hurts has been one of the most talked about backup quarterbacks in college football this season. With a resume like his, it makes perfect sense. He is a former champion on arguably the best team in college football and he ends up being beat out in training camp by the young upstart QB that replaced him in the championship game last year. Luckily for Alabama, the young man from Houston Texas was far from finished in writing his legacy for the Crimson Tide.

Week 15 Picks Against the Spread
So it's week 15 in the NFL season. We now have Saturday afternoon and evening games. I can't believe we are already here; time is flying by way too fast and needs to chill out a bit. Seriously. It is now full on winter, it's cold outside, Hannukah has come and gone, I am pale as a ghost and am miserable. Anyway, back to NFL happenings.

Week 14 NFL Picks Against the Spread
We are already in Week 14 of the NFL season. My fantasy team has been eliminated from the playoffs thanks to Le'veon Bell and his nonsense, so good riddance fantasy football (until I get suckered into doing it again next year even if I absolutely hate it). Can't believe the regular season is three quarters of the way finished. Time needs to chill the fuck out a bit.

Fantasy Football Tips and How to Play
Fantasy football is played by millions of people across Canada and the US. It adds more excitement and decision making as you get to make your own team. At least 2 people have to be in the league to play, but you should get as much as possible to make it more fun and nerve racking. It really either makes your day or ruins it since it is very luck based game.

Down, but Not Out
Aaron Rodgers said it best in a post game interview in 2014, "R-E-L-A-X." The Steelers and their fans need to take that message and apply it. The Steelers did suffer a brutal loss to the Denver Broncos Sunday. Does that make the Steelers a fluke? The answer is no. Let's break down what happened and see what this loss might mean for the Steelers and the rest of the league down the rode.

Week 13 NFL Picks Against the Spread
Week 13 in the NFL, it's wild that we are already at this point in the season with only a month left of regular season games. I am on record of being an NFL hater, but even I have to admit, this season has been a ton of fun. Lot of great stories, so before getting to the picks, here is a quick snapshot of why this season has been so much fun (even if as a Giants fan, the Giants season has not been that fun except for Saquon Barkely being awesome):

Week 12 Picks Against the Spread
The streak is over. After going over .500 for about a month with my picks, last week was the first sub .500 week in a while. I would like to thank the Atlanta Falcons for screwing me once again. I went against my own rule of never backing the Falcons and it came back to bite me, because of course it did.

Andrew Luck for Comeback Player of the Year?. Top Story - November 2018.
Many experts and fans didn't know coming into the 2018 season how Colts QB Andrew Luck would fare this season. After missing the entire 2017 season due to shoulder surgery in his throwing shoulder, there were a lot of murmurs wondering if he will be the same QB again. Luck reassured fans and experts that he will come back better than he was, and his actions are reflecting that statement. Luck has once again threw the Colts into playoff contention, and it's safe to say that he should win the comeback player of the year award.

NFL Week 11 Picks Against the Spread
Week 11 NFL. Can't believe we are already here; the season is flying by. And you know what? Time needs to slow down and chill the fuck out for a bit. Seriously time, how about you relax? It seems like a two weeks ago it was still somewhat warm outside in New York. Now it is fucking freezing, and I am not handling this well. I shouldn't have to wear a winter coat in mid-November—brutal. I need to get somewhere warm and get myself a tan ASAP.
