The Weekly Grind - 10.28
No questions from readers this week *deep sigh* but I will share my thoughts about certain things because I know most of you are interested. First and foremost, let me say that the Masterlock presents "EA's Lock of the Week" portion of last week's column was tremendously unpopular with some of my gambling friends, most of whom bet heavy on the Bills due to the fact that I was sure the Raiders would cover (-3) which they did by an astounding 18 points. So maybe my 25 year string of bad luck has ended. So this week, the "Lock" goes to the winless Texans (-2) who I believe should get their first win this year behind a ridiculously solid performance by Dom Davis. Take it to the bank! Booyah! Additional cliche'd phrase!
Secondly, the IM debate rages on in some circles of the country and I have no particular comment about it. Though I will say, while it is an effective communicating tool for those friends and/or co workers who live far away, the instant message is grossly overused and is contributing to the downfall of society. I realize people don't want to waste their precious cell phone minutes but lets please get back into the habit of talking to each other on the phone. Is that too much to ask?
Speaking of cell phones, is there anything more annoying than someone talking on their cell phone while ordering food in line ( or on line for you downstate NYers)?
The Bears play the Lions this weekend and bragging rights will once again be at stake between EA and Sky. Quick recap of the first game this season back in week 2. The Bears 38, Lions 6. Detroit really only had one play this whole game, a 51 yd toss to Roy Williams. They humerously had the extra point blocked and got deuched the rest of the game. Expect similar deuching in a Chicago victory 21-7.
To cap off this less than adequate post, I'm giving you my fantasy studs and duds this weekend.
Studs
1 - The aforementioned Domanick Davis
2 - Aaron Brooks of the L.A Saints
3 - Thomas Jones...Houshmandzadeh. hahaha but seriously T.J Houshmandzadeh is my answer
Duds
1- No big suprise here, Jamal Lewis/Kevin Jones will tie for shittiest first round fantasy picks ever.
2 - Magahee - What you talking about Willis? Call me crazy but expect New England to shut him down and win this game possibly by a score of 87-2
3 - Tomlinson - the guy is washed up...what did he have 7 yards last week? trade him while his value is high fantasy owners.
Thats all I got, I blame my unfunniness on the cold weather and the looming darkness that winter brings. Happy Halloween everyone! Take care.

Bro. Hilarious email. The booyah! cliche! line was priceless.
I'll send you a question for next week. I gotta brainstorm
I also laughed out loud at the "additional cliched phrase" part. I'm not even kidding.
Shout out to my peeps in the Big Apple!!
fuck you and your precious bears.
they are a garbage team in a garbage division.
chicago is only good at two things;
1. wind
2. baseball
suck it.
