It's funny... Starfield rhymes with Garfield... Now some Week 2 Picks

Week 2 reminds me of a story. When the MC Hammer song "2 Legit 2 Quit" came out I thought the lyrics were "2 the jit, 2 the jit 2 quit," believing that "the jit" was a place where MC Hammer was going to go and quit. Now, during this height of popularity we were given a school assignment that was something like "design a pro-reading flyer." Never one to miss out on a fad, I decided to make my flyer "2 the jit, 2 the jit 2 READ" ah see now the jit is a place one goes to curl up with a good book. Great flyer, Tha Captain!

Now, some of my less-stupid classmates pointed out that those are not the lyrics. So, not wanting to seem any more of a fool that I already did, I changed it to "2 legit, 2 legit 2 read" which is absolutely not what you want on a pro-reading flyer. Ah well. Keep at it, Cap'n.

I have no comment on any of these games, apparently.

Woke Forest -10

Ball State +42

Texas A&M -4.5

Old Mist -7.5

Kent State +37.5

Alabama -7

Mizzou -20.5

Arizona +10.5  

Auburn -6.5

{v}

{v}280.00 on Alabama -280 to win {v}100.00

think how this is going to work when Texas, Oklahoma, Florida State, Clemson, Virginia Tech, and Liberty are also in the SEC

Vanderbilt at Wake Forest (-10): Vandy: not great

Ball State at Georgia (-42): Absolutely sickening

Texas A&M at Miami (+4.5): I'm excited about this one because whoever loses is going to feel very bad about themselves.

Old Mist at Tulane (+7.5): I think Lane is taking them seriously, but Tulane is a good football team.

Kent State at Arkansas (-37.5): ok

Texas at Alabama (-7): The funniest outcome would be for Texas to win this game and the rest of September to start 5-0 and get to #3 in the country, then get blasted by Oklahoma and end up losing five of their last seven games.

Middle Tennessee State at Missouri (-20.5): Missouri seems roughly thirty points worse than Alabama, this makes sense. 

Arizona at Mississippi State (-10.5): Mississippi State is constantly playing games that make me say, "Oh, huh. Ok."

Auburn at Cal (+6.5): Verrrrrrry concerned about this one, kids. Feels like a 41-38 kind of game, and not the good way.

{v}{v}{v}THENICEBOOKIE{v}{v}{v}

Stranger Things. Let's start that this week. Week 1 is officially Stranger Things Week. Also every other week will be that. It's just how we do things 'round here.

oh this got out of hand

Florida +6.5  The native american johnny depp looking ass quarterback guy from utah is not playing. The line is like 4.5 now but both of those are more-than-a-field-goal-less-than-a-td. My point is that I'm very hungry.

Kentucky -25.5  Ball State is just a nickname. Their official name is Testicle State. Folks,

Virginia +27.5  Bronco "Bronck" Mendenhall is turning things around in Charlottesville. Okay, would everyone like to hear a largely pointless story? Don't care; story starting! So in fifth (5th) grade, the students at Thompson Elementary were treated to a trip to our nation's capital: Charlottesville, Va. Just kidding, I know the real capital is Richmond but we went to C-Vegas too. One of the big draws for that par-tick-ular hamlet is the birthplace of founding father (or as I call them the (democracy designing daddies (aka tha triple Ds)) Thomas Haley Jefferson: Monticello (pronounced in an offensively exaggerated Italian accent a-la Inglorious Basterds). Anyways, it's just a big stupid house where a bunch of slaves died but the real treat is that you can see a hill to the southwest. At the top of the hill stands some kind of building. See map below. Apparently the thing at the top of the hill (I know it's a 2D picture but the switchback road clearly suggests some sort of elevation change) is called "Montalto." Now, dear readers, as a naive and impressionable fifth (5th) grader I was told that "graduate students from UVA" lived there. Preposterous, I thought, as I watched a car traverse the winding path to the top. It seemed crazy at the time and it's something that haunts me to this day. The internet tells me that there is a wedding venue up there now and, hell, there may have been in 1993. I imagine the tour guide at Monticello mostly gets questions about where the slaves died and how many slaves died and how did the slaves die rather than "who lives at the top of that distant hill." Anyways, I learned a lot about democracy and how tour guides assume graduate students like living on mountains like dragons and trolls.


Auburn -34.5  Year 3 of the Harsin era or the "Renn-Harsin-ce" (Like Renaissance) as I and most of the people I talk to call it, gets off to a flying start. Minutemen? Yeah one minute is about how long it will take the patented "Har-fense" (Auburn's offense) scores some "Bryans" (points).

New Mexico +38.5  Jimbo probably wants to come out and show everyone how good his "24 points or bust" offense is.

South Carolina +2.5  Ol Head Ball Coach click clack

Alabama -40  Bryce Young is the best QB in cfb. Change my mind.

Florida St. +2.5  *badly mangles the seminole war chant* hiya humma hiya humma heap big football game

{v}

{v}500.00 on Alabama -50000 to win {v}1.00


The last real week one

Next year, the superconference era truly begins. And it's going to suck!

---

Florida (+6.5) at Utah: Utah's quarterback is out. This will probably be wrong!

Ball State at Kentucky (-25.5): Don't know. Don't care! 

Virginia at Tennessee (-27.5): I guess? Seems like Virginia should be a lot better at football than they are. 

UMass at Auburn (-34.5): lmao

New Mexico at TAMU (-38.5): picking a lot of favorites

North Carolina at South Carolina (+2.5): BBB--Beamer ball, baby

Middle Tennessee State at Alabama (-40): I am tired of doing the pick them now

LSU (-2.5,) vs. Florida State: This is a fun one

Gimme {v}500 on Auburn -10000, to win {v}5.

week 0 picks

The season is about to begin (meaning the season for harvesting cotton in the cotton field where I now work). I'm excited to begin the picking process (meaning picking cotton in the cotton field where I now work). I am also really looking forward to bowl season (meaning boll season, when it's time to harvest the cotton in the cotton field where I now work). 

Unrelated, a football pick:

  • Hawai'i at Vanderbilt (-17.5) (T:55.5): Hawaii is a dreadful football team even if I do like Timmy Chang coming back


*creed voice* i've created i've created i've created i've created i've created my own prisuuhn

*stranger things voice* i've created i've created i've created i've created i've created my own prisuuhn 

no

ah well what with the wildfires and all you really can only see this going one way. i will figure out what way that is in a little bit.

Vanderbilt -17.5

my analysis of this is that each player on each team deserves a new car. but all the same car. a fleet of shitty corrolas to herald the arrival of the commodores and rainbow warriors.

*creed voice* stranger things

this was AI. this is where we're going.
