The San Diego Union-Tribune reports that Drew Brees might play somewhere besides San Diego in 2006. Expect the New-Drew-to-Dallas speculation to swirl. However, why would we want him when we already have a better Drew.  

The Greek dedicates this weeks picks to Ev. Walsh (see photo above). Once again I would like to thank you on behalf everyone for looking after the pool again this year - even if you did make up a person so you could win the pool yourself. Once again it was a great year and you did a great job - Thanks.

Denver over San Diego. Marty Schottenheimer is probably a nice guy, but why do his teams always blow it?
Giants over Raiders because Colin Shepard knows more about football than Rolo.
Arizona over Indy. Colts are in a mess with two straight losses and Dungy family problems. Will lose this week and also their playoff showdown with the Pats.
Baltimore over Cleveland. The Browns defense is as dependable as a single father with a drinking problem.
Buffalo over The Jets because The Jets suck!!!
Carolina over Atlanta. OK, name one of Atlanta's starting receivers. I'll give you a few minutes. Take your time and think. And no, Peerless Price isn't one of them.
Kansas City over Cincinnati. K.C. has not lost a game at home in Dec. since 1987. They are like a car without a stick shift - automatic.
Steelers over Lions. Millen has no friends left in Detroit anymore. When he goes out in the city now he is lonelier than a hooker at a Star Trek convention.
Miami over New England. Miami has won 5 in a row and if they pull a win off this week their heads may just about get as big as Evs.
Saints over Bucs. How can Tampa look so good one week, and so bad the next? I'm sure that's a question Britney Spears has heard before.
Seattle over Green Bay. Seattle has won 11 games in a row. Just call them butter because they are on a roll.
Houston over San Fran. Game of the day as both teams will be doing their best to lose. I like to call it the Bush Bowl.
Jacksonville over Tennessee. Jacksonville are the best kept secret in the NFL. Don't tell anybody but they have clinched a playoff berth.
Minnesota over Chicago. The Bears have no Offense and the only way they are going to The Super Bowl this year is if they buy tickets to the game.
Washington over Philly. What do you call 42 guys sitting around a big screen watching The Super Bowl - The Philadelphia Eagles.
Dallas over St. Louis. Duhhhhhh!!! No brainer.

Dustin Boyd made an international hockey debut to remember as Canada opened defence of its gold medal at the world junior hockey championship with a 5-1 win over Finland on Monday. 

MERRY CHRISTMAS !!!! 

Orange Julius Jones dives in for a touch down as Dallas dominated Carolina in play today. The win keeps Dallas' playoff hopes alive as three teams are up for the last two spots in the NFC with one week to go. Go Cowboys!!!!!!

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!!!! 

The Greek's picks for week 16 are dedicated to Tony Dungy and his family this week:

Atlanta over Tampa. Rolo asked me the other day what a Buccaneer was so I told him it was to much to pay for corn. He said oh yeah I knew that.
Bengals over Bills because Buffalo will be using their Doughnut Defense again this week - the one with the hole in the middle.
Dallas over Carolina. Duhhhhhh!!! No brainer.
Detroit and New Orleans - The Greek refuses to pick either one of these teams to win. Tie! I'd rather be forced to spend Christmas alone while watching re-runs of the show Empty Nest all day than be forced to watch this lackluster offering.
Jacksonville over Houston. Saying Houston isn't tanking it in order to get the No. 1 pick in next year's draft is like saying you watched the Victoria's Secret fashion show for gift ideas.
Washington over Giants. I don't know who's more overrated right now, Howard Stern or Eli Manning.
Pittsburgh over Cleveland. I ran across a Browns fan the other day in the middle of the desert. He was tired and thirsty. I asked him if he wanted any of my water. He said no, all he wanted was for me to show the Browns more respect. Then he fell over and I continued on my way.
Chiefs over Chargers because Hazel Mae knows more about football than Montague.
Rams over San Fran. Remember when these two teams used to be good??? 49ers will blow it in hopes of getting Reggie Bush next year - Reggie may opt to play his senior year after all.
Miami over Tennessee. The Titans were so beat up last week that they went to the chiropractor and everyone knows that 98% of chiropractors give the rest a bad name.
Arizona at Philly. See Detroit and New Orleans pick.
Seattle over Indy. Seriously, Tony Dungy's 18 year old son died today - The Greeks Thoughts are with him and his family.
Denver over Oakland because Mary Tyler Moore knows more about football than Rolo.
Chicago over Green Bay. The Packers have as much chance of winning as Ev Walsh does of finding one of those cheese heads smaller than his actual head.
Minnesota over Baltimore. If you ask me, this whole Vikings "Sex Boat-Gate" thing has been Blown way overboard.
New England over the Jerks because The Jerks suck!!!!!!

Chargers down Colts to end bid for perfect season.
Congrats. to Eddy Spagetti the only Chargers fan in the world.
Cowboys suck. Between them and the Bruins my winter sports watching has been very frustrating.
Maybe I should go for the Colts and Senators.

Jimmy The Greeks picks for week 15:

Tampa over New England because Brady, New England's only good player will be out with a knee injury.
Giants over K.C. because in the last 2 weeks Giants beat Dallas, Dallas beat K.C., so......
Denver over Buffalo because football is a game of inches and that is how Buffalo moves the ball.
Arizona over Houston because last week Houston's coach was marching on the field alongside the band. A majorette threw her baton in the air and then dropped it. A fan yelled, "Hey, I see you coach the band, too."
Carolina over New Orleans. Saints players have a lot on the ball- unfortunately, it's never their hands.
Miami over The Jets. J-E-T-S stands for Just End The Season. And they suck.
St. Louis over Philly. Eagles call it their nickel defense, because that's what it's worth.
Pittsburgh over Minnesota. The Bus will conquer The Love Boat.
Indy over San Diego because the only way the Chargers can gain yardage is to run their game films backward.
Seattle over Tennessee. A friend of mine offered me $100.00 to name a player on Tennessee's defense - I sure could have used the money.
Jacksonville over San. Fran. because Jacksonville's linemen are so huge that it takes just four of them to make a dozen.
Bengals over Lions. Lion's loss this week can be summed up in two words: Jeff Garcia.
Oakland over Cleveland because The Brown's offensive line is so good that even their own backs can't get through it.
Dallas over Washington. Dallas will use their favorite play all day this game - the one where one of their players pitches the ball back to the official after he has scored a touchdown.
Atlanta over Chicago. In this game Bear's quarterback Kyle Orton will start praying, and we will hear a distant voice say, "Please don't include me in this."
Baltimore over Green Bay. Green Bay is for real this year!!! Yeah, and Pam Anderson was unjustly snubbed from this year's Emmy's.

Nichols earns Olympic berth in Halifax. Mark and his team will be representing Canada, Newfoundland and Labrador City at the winter Olympics in a couple of months. Congratulations!!!! and Good Luck!!!! 

Terry Glenn makes a catch for a TD as Dallas dominated K.C. in action yesterday. The Cowboys won the game 31-28. 

The Greeks picks for week 14:

Pittsburgh over Chicago because the last time The Bears beat The Steelers was 1986 and JJ still had a perm.
Cincinnati over Cleveland. The Browns have not won a game in December since Tommy Walsh had a buzz cut.
Tennessee over Houston. Anyone who thinks Houston has a chance probably thinks that Carl Dimitroff is a real person.
Indy over Jacksonville. Jacksonville has as much of a chance of winning as Todd Reccord does of growing back his mullet.
New England over Buffalo. If you think Buffalo will win then you must also believe that Rob Penney will not lip sinc and play air guitar at his Christmas party.
Oakland over The Jets because Rolo knows more about football than JJ. - It is true!!
Minnesota over St. Louis. St. Louis has not won a game since the last time anybody seen John Byrne out at a club.
Carolina over Tampa. Tampa has as much a chance of winning this game as Dunphy does of winning the pool.
Giants over Philly. The Eagles will not beat N.Y. until Fred sticks to his all salad diet.
Seattle over San. Fran. Because the last time San. Fran. was any good Ev. Had a small head.
Washington over Arizona. The last time Arizoa beat Washington was Sept. 7. 1988 - The same time Tony Walsh bought his last round for anyone.
Denver over Baltimore. Denver will score as many points as years Ed spent in University - with that many points they would even be able to beat Indy.
Dallas over K.C. - Duhhhh!!! No brainer.
Miami over Chargers. Myers and Tricco both agree on this as they do most things and with the two of them never wrong The Dolphins will win.
Green Bay over Detroit. Terry says Green Bay will win - careful with this pick as he also said The Leafs will win the cup.
Atlanta over New Orleans. The Saints have as much chance of winning as Doc does of ever being cool.

Team Nichols in first place at the Olympic trials with a 8-1 record. Mark is from Labrador City and played on my soccer team a few years back. Best of luck to Team Nichols in reaching their Olympic dream!!!

The Greek's Picks for week 13:

- Carolina over Atlanta. Micheal Vick is just another Slash; can do it all but really accomplishes nothing.
- Miami over Buffalo. Both teams need a quarterback and when 2 shitty teams play take the home team.
- Steelers over Bengals because Cincinnati has not won in Pittsburgh since Oct. 9, 1989.
- Dallas over Giants. Cowboys won the first meeting this year and since then New York has done nothing to get better. Dallas, on the other hand, has added Barber to their running game which greatly improves them.
- Green Bay over Chicago. The Bears can not win 8 games in a row with no offence Can they???
- Baltimore over Houston. The Colts are 11-0 so why go against them?
- Jacksonville over Cleveland. Since The Drew Carey Show nothing good has come out of Cleveland.
- Minnesota over Detroit because The Lions just got rid of their greatest asset; Mariucci.
- Tampa over New Orleans because even at home it is an away game for The Saints and they have to be road weary by now - and they suck.
- Indy over Tennessee because Kirk said to pick his favorite team. Funny it only seems like last year that he was a New England fan.
- Arizona over San. Fran. Because Cluney is a 49ers fan so they must suck because he knows nothing about football.
- Washington over St. Louis because Washington has not lost 4 games in a row since last year.
- Denver over K.C. because they beat Dallas last week - this makes them the class of the league- even more so than Kirk's Colts.
- New England over The Jets because The Jets suck.
- Chargers over Oakland because Ed guarantees that Norv Turner will be Mariucci-ed after this game.
- Seattle over Philly because Dallas beat Philly twice and Seattle beat Dallas, so.......
