Since this prediction, the Twinkies have gone 7-22 :-)

Just wanted to thank Matt, until his post, I think I had the worst prediction in CA history!
Thanks for taking the crown, buddy! :-)
Wear it proudly, as I did before you! :-)

I'll wait until the Twins are mathmatically eliminated to send my addy, Matt. :-) :-)

So, after first pitch this afternoon?

D'oh!

Bold prediction:

Lions make the playoffs.

Yes I'm drinking the Kool-Aid and the cornbread is in the oven.

You're obviously drinking something, Mike. :-)

I think if Stafford stays healthy they will be in the mix. I know that's a big IF.

At this rate he's turning into ole' Cracker shoulder Chad Heinne.... they both have cannons, if they don't get hit!

:-):-)Already have it, Tom.:-)

Could be the end of next week, Matt! :-) :-)

It was a bad sign when they immediately lost 6 in a row after we made the bet. Wasn't expecting to win this one, just hoping to. Like Jim Carrey said in Dumb and Dumber..."so you're sayin' there's a chance!"

Tigers are looking better everyday. Fister is on fire.

A bet is a bet. Starting to like 357's bold prediction a lot better than my own.

Happy that my Tigers took over the Central, Matt. Less happy that your Twins took such a dump.

I thought this thread said "Bald" prediction time. Anyway, to tie it into baseball, I started losing my hair right at the time my Brewers were in the 1982 World Series. Now, their magic number is 2, which is nice to see, but I have no confidence that they'll go far in the playoffs. My second favorite team would be the Twins. I think I'll dig out my old homer hankies for good luck.

Lions are 3-0. Heck Stafford got sacked 5 times, 3 by Jared Allen and popped right back up. Lions didn't look so hot in the first half being down 20-0, but they came back to win 26-23 in OT.

BTW, is there anyone in the NFL that can cover Calvin Johnson? :-) He only has 6 TD receptions in the first 3 games. :-)
[Reply]

Chris Cook actually did a solid job covering Calvin. Last 40 yard catch was against cedric griffin. Being down 20-0 against the Vikes is having them right where you want them this year. Tony Dungy had the quote of the day IMO, if the game is 30 min long, I have the Vikings winning the super bowl. Ha. Hopefully the kittens can take it to the pack this year. Rather see them win than the ****:n cheeseheads.

Stafford should change his last name to "If he stays healthy" because it always follows Matt Stafford.
[Reply]

Cook did alright. I think he interrupted 2 passes targeted toward Calvin. That said, I know at least one of the TD receptions Cook was on him. The last catch it wouldn't have mattered who was on him, save Shaq or Yao Ming.

CJ is 6'5" with 4.30 speed, 44" vertical, and amazing hands. He's truly a physical freak. What else is nice is that he's not one of the WR prima donnas. He's actually rather quiet; doesn't talk much at all.

Strangely Vick doesn't seem to get that label, but he's hurt all the time.
