If you are looking for a last minute costume idea today, my football picks might be a good idea. They have been very scary lately. I did have a winning week at the collegiate level this past week though. However, I had a bad day in the NFL. Maybe this will be the week I put two days [...]

Another nationally televised game for the Missouri Tigers brought very familiar results.
The Tigers never even had a chance in Saturday’s homecoming game against Texas. It was embarrassing at times. Colt McCoy made it look like he was playing catch with his buddies in his backyard. It was that easy. To be fair, the Longhorns are [...]

A huge bombshell sounds like it has been dropped on the city of St. Louis. Also, two expected results happened for fans in the area as well. The heroes are filled with great comebacks. The zeros are filled with poor decisions. Unlike one of the candidates involved, we are going to talk about the past…the past three [...]

I have been outstanding with my NFL picks so far this year. However, I have been pretty terrible with my college football picks. I just cannot get anything going with the college game. This week, that all will change. I think a perfect 3-0 week is coming. As for the NFL, I feel extremely confident [...]

Missouri isn’t used to winning the big game.
After last Saturday, they still aren’t.
Two years ago, the Tigers couldn’t handle Oklahoma. Last year, big games against Oklahoma State, Texas, Kansas, and Oklahoma plagued them. Now, the Tigers can chalk up two more big games they let slip through their fingers—a loss at home against Nebraska and [...]

As most listeners know, I am a huge fan of both Dave Checketts and John Davidson. I firmly believe they have the franchise pointed in the right direction. I also believe that up until now Andy Murray has done a very solid job as head coach of the team. However, up to this point this [...]

Is it all but certain now that Matt Holliday will not play again for the Cardinals? Shouldn’t the Rams still figure out a way to draft Jimmy Clausen even though last minute Notre Dame’s last minute drive did not produce a victory over USC? Would it not have made more sense for Steve Spagnolo to go for [...]

A nice week last week with a 4-2 mark. I actually had a winning week at the college level. That has been a rarity. Hopefully, I can have a repeat performance this week.

1. Lock of the Week: Texas -3.5 vs. Oklahoma…Colt McCoy will assert himself as the frontrunner for the Heisman Trophy with a [...]

Through three quarters against the Nebraska Cornhuskers, the Missouri Tigers looked like a team that would not only compete in the Big 12 North, but also like a team that could give Texas a run for the Big 12 championship. How quickly things change.
Leading 12-0 in the fourth quarter, the Tigers defense was smothering the [...]
