January 18, 2016: The Whiff
The 15-1 Bears are about to begin their playoff season. It’s the Giants not the Niners who win the NFC wild card game. They roll into Soldier Field as 9 point underdogs. It’s a very good team. With Phil Simms … Continued
January 17, 2016: 11
The Blackhawks beat the Canadiens again on Sunday night to run their winning streak to 11 games. This ties the franchise record set only a few years ago in 2013; we all know how that season ended. This one is … Continued
January 16, 2016: Sitting Out
Sometimes it’s just best to sit one out. Last weekend, Vegas was all around us. I ended up 2-2 on my picks. I should have listened to my first instinct and taken KC against Houston. I overestimated the public money … Continued
