News from Oregon - Belotti’s wife is a drunken streettough!

Wednesday, October 31st, 2007

Christmas comes early if you’re a Husky fan this year. First USC is under fire after it was revealed that Reggie Bush allegedly received 291k while he was at USC. Now comes news that the Belotti family is a bunch of reckless drunks!

And yesterday was the anniversary of Tui’s miraculous 300-200 game against Stanford.  It’s hard to quantify how much better my college experience was because of Tui, but I would say 2432 times better than if, say, Steve Birnbaum was our quarterback.

Happy Hotdogalloweenandfriends!

Why I Love Local News

Tuesday, October 30th, 2007

A special video from our local news team at KOMO 4. KOMO should only include this clip in the Highlight Package they send to the Local Emmy Committee.

Sportscaster Mike Ferreri deserves props for repeatedly showing the moment of impact, however he clearly needs to update his jokes. I think he makes a hanging CHAD joke at the beginning and then a Dances With Wolves reference later. I’m surprised he didn’t throw in an Austin Powers line for good measure. I’m just saying that if you watch this video 20 times in a row you start to notice things like that. If you have better joke ideas for Mr. Ferreri, please write them in the comment section and/or send them to him here: mferreri@komotv.com.

Hec & Vic don’t know what the eff they talking about

Friday, October 26th, 2007

Right now, Hector & Victor, the two guys that do the fantasy football prognostications for ESPN.com, are predicting the Giants D/ST will score six points this weekend. Six. Whole. Points. Against Cleo Lemon and the winless and Ronnie Brown-less Miami Dolphins. When Usi Umenyiora will be playing for the first time in front of his Nigerian mother. Really. Six points.

Now, this runs counter to the general trend of H&V drastically overestimating fantasy values. To boot: All of my players, except Giants D and T.J. Housh, are expected to exceed their season averages by an average of 50%.

Why does ESPN do this? Clearly, it’s more fun to think your team has a chance every week - this makes fantasy football more fun. I can imagine fielding a team of has-beens like LSDubC would start to wear on someone (PS: I see you picked up Brown Star mainstay Randy McMichael. Well done; let’s see how that goes.)

However, I find the lack of accuracy/accountability in fantasy football predictions troubling.

The thing about being a fantasy football expert is…you need no qualifications whatsoever. All you have to do is be somewhat entertaining (like the Talented Mr. Roto) and you’re good to go. Man, I wish I had gotten into that game 10 years ago!

Oh yeah, and sorry I haven’t posted in a while. I had to return some videotapes.

Sincerely Yours,

Hotdog

Fideo Friday: Hotdog Special

Friday, October 26th, 2007

This one is for Hotdog, in hopes that he will come back to the blog that he so callously abandoned. If he doesn’t, I will begin gradually convert this site into a porn site. And if you know me, it’s not the kind of porn site you ever want to see (unless you are German or Japanese).

Locktober Week 9… Riding that train, High on cocaine

Friday, October 26th, 2007

And so Locktober comes to an end.  Going out Grateful….

Week 8 Revue

In a blatent backtrack from my position last week, I am counting the UW/UO game in last week’s totals, because I need to.  On the whole it wasn’t pretty.  2-2 overall, 1-3 against the spread.  I would probably do better if I didn’t spend so much time rolling in the rushes, down by the riverside….

Week 9 Picks

UCLA at WSU (UCLA minus 6)

Which Bruin team will show up?  The one that beat Cal last week or the one that gave Notre Dame it’s only win of the season.  Hard to say.  I guess I’ll just follow the words of wisdom from my man Jerry and go with a touch of grey (kind of suits them anyway) and pick WSU to upset UCLA 28-14.

Seahawks should sign Grady Jackson

Thursday, October 25th, 2007

I just wanted to put this out there before I read it somewhere else. At Manny’s on Tuesday getting ready to go watch Kevin Durant tweak his ankle, I saw a very intriguing note on ESPN’s ticker. “Falcons release NT Grady Jackson“. My immediate and unequivocal reaction: the Seahawks need to lock that guy up at once.

I’m going all LaRouche for Boston sports

Wednesday, October 24th, 2007

I’m going insane. Boston must be stopped. Red Sox. Patriots. Things look especially bright for the C’s even. The continued success of these teams and their constant fellating by Bristol has me fucking losing it.

They won’t stop winning.

New England based ESPN won’t stop shoving every angle of this in my face. Red Sox nation! Bill Simmons thinks he’s George Clooney!

Please dear God stop this!

Locktober week 8…. Office Edition Picks

Friday, October 19th, 2007

 Week 7 revue

We’ve found a rut.  3-2 overall and 3-2 against the spread.  This brings the yearly totals to 32-14 overall and 25-21 against the spread.  After reviewing all of my picks I have decided that I need to be better.  I need a little DWIGHT.

Dwight

Week 8 Picks 

Cal at UCLA (actually no line for this game, but I’m going to say Cal -10)

I can’t figure out why there isn’t a point spread for this game.  Cal suffered a stunning loss last week to Oregon State, who has now made a habit of ruining the PAC-10’s chances at winning a National Title.  Did it last year to USC, did it this year to Cal.  Imagine if Oregon State bothered to show up to 1/2 its games how good they’d be.  Oregon State is the Toby of this league.  The redheaded stepchild.  This week, Cal will be out for revenge against a UCLA team that is a tremendous waste of talent.  Cal wins 35-17.

OSU = TOBY
