How the mighty have fallen! I told all of you when we started picking these games that the Old Timer would probably not fare too well in this contest because there was no money involved. Boy oh boy was that the prediction of all time. The teacher is getting schooled by his students. The man who taught us everything we know about sports and betting is wallowing in the cellar. …

Mark Clayton, WR, Baltimorfte Ravens. A former first round pick of the Ravens, Clayton has shown flashes here and there throughout his career but has never been a consistent threat.

After two weeks in which he threw just one touchdown and four interceptions, Donovan McNabb came out on Thanksgiving Day and showed everyone that he wasn’t done yet. McNabb torched the Arizona secondary for 260 yards and four touchdowns making his fantasy owners comfortable putting him back into their lineups. However, no team has allowed more touchdown passes than Arizona (26), and if you look at the Eagles’ schedule for…

Even though this post is going up after 3pm, I can assure you all of these picks were made before the games started. Hell, the way we are picking maybe we should start picking at halftime of the game. The Old Timer threatened to let my 2 year old daughter pick for him next week if he keeps this pace up.

Cane: Week…
