It’s that time of year, folks.
Are you ready for some football?!
(And yes, I can hear the collective groan of my “audience” all the way over here. Hey, I’m a boy. I like football. Feel free to go read that Dooce chick if you wanna)
Last week I had my fantasy football draft. Given [...]

It’s Match Game™ time here at JeremyAbramson.com!
While out at a bar one night, my friend Sam started this thing where he equated everyone’s “game” (in terms of picking up chicks) to basketball players. So along those lines, see if you can match the following scouting reports (courtesy of the Jeremy Abramson scouting [...]

I honestly don’t care at all about this game. But it’s the difference between a “winning” season and a losing one. The line, I believe, is -4.5 for the Steelers. Which seems a little high. Honestly, I think I’m rooting for the Seahawks, mostly because I don’t like Jerome Bettis, and I [...]

So both my teams lost this week. It wasn’t even close. This, of course, has the added drama of bringing my record even at .500, with one game left: The Superbowl. But here’s the problem: WHO THE FUCK CARES ABOUT THE SUPERBOWL!? It’s Seattle and Pittsburgh for christ’s sake!
Whatever. [...]

We’re taking a little break from JeremyAbramson.com™ Presents: The Real World, Ultimate Hump List, just in time for the conference championships. I went 2-2 this past week, picking both NFC games (including a road dog and a home favorite that needed to cover by almost 10 points!), but losing out on both AFC games. [...]

We’re back with picks this week, trying to edge toward profitability. Picking playoff games is a bit rough, since both teams are, presumably, good squads who have a chance to win. Instead of “fun facts” or “favorite momements” this week, we’re going with another alternative way of picking teams: The number of USC [...]

…but, you know, I told you so.
Here’s a quote from today’s (January 12th, 2006) “Daily Quickie” on ESPN.com, written by Dan Shanoff:
Here’s the thing about Bush: It’ll take an innovative coach to maximize his effectiveness. Stick him in the “Vicksand” of inside-the-box X’s and O’s, and Bush might as well be Dave Meggett.
Here’s what I [...]

(Editors note: I am not a USC hater. I actually go to USC. I’m a Trojan. I wasn’t rooting for them — or against them, for that matter — during the Rose Bowl. My “rooting” interest in college football ended when the Miami Hurricanes decided to stay in Miami for [...]

This is why we don’t gamble on football. After a promising Saturday (with the Pats and ‘Skins winning) I went 0-2 on Sunday, after Carson Palmer’s ACL did it’s little string cheese impression. With the Bengals and Giants getting crushed, my push for profitability took a mild hit, as I went 2-2 for [...]

My first post of 2006! Whoo hoo!
I know, I know. It’s been awhile. I’m sorry.
This isn’t going to turn into a sports-only blog – I promise – but there have been a lot of sports-related things going on. Actually, there have been a lot of other-related things going on as well, [...]
