“Wait ’till you see my OH!”

September 29th, 2005 · No Comments

You may have noticed some slight changes here at jeremyabramson.com™. For one, we can now do polls, which an impressive EIGHT of you out there decided to participate in. (Okay, so it’s seven, since of of the votes is from me, but whatever. We’ll call it eight). So I’m sure after [...]

September 28th, 2005 · No Comments

We’re actually going to cover this topic in a little more detail, but for now, I ask you:
Bigger sign of the apocalypse:
1. This?
or.
2. This?
Or, if you like, I present you with the first poll here at JeremyAbramson.com™! Let the world rejoice!

Rebound

September 27th, 2005 · No Comments

So I guess that’s why they call it “gambling”. After a horrible 0-4 Week 2, I rebounded nicely this week, going 4-0. Both dogs that I picked ended up winning outright, which was a little surprising. And it turned out the porous Carolina secondary couldn’t contain the Miami passing attack. Just [...]

The Dean of Dumb

September 22nd, 2005 · No Comments

Okay, so what’s up with The O.C.? I mean, I admit, I got on board a little late here (I didn’t see a single episode until around 2/3s of the way through season 2) but still, this is getting a little out of hand. We all dug season 1, because it seemed fresh, [...]

A Bountiful Harvest

September 21st, 2005 · No Comments

Not to get all Ice Cube on everyone, but today was a good day. An no, the fact that none of my assault rifles were discharged had nothing to do with it. I ventured to USC in order to pick up this…

Any Given Sunday

September 20th, 2005 · No Comments

So this is why we don’t bet on football. (View Jeremy and Jeffy’s Week 2 picks here)

A team I picked to win outright got waxed by 29 points and didn’t even score until the fourth quarter.
The Seahawks, one point favorites, of course, covered by a field goal. I picked the Falcons [...]

The Cola Wars, Redux

September 18th, 2005 · 1 Comment

Originally, I was going to post imploring you, the intrepid reader, to determine the origins of “Jinx, you owe me a Coke”. Because despite all appearances to the contrary, there are, on occasion, things that come up that even I can’t be bothered to do. And as lame and pathetic as my [...]

Week 2 NFL Picks

September 17th, 2005 · 3 Comments

So, I like football. I think we’ve established that. I also like gimmicks. My friend Jeff, as fate would have it, isn’t really that in to football. I’m not really sure how he feels about gimmicks, but he agreed to take a stab at picking 4 NFL games a week with [...]
