Medical City Outpatient Room – 7:35 A.M. – Dallas, Texas:Terrell Owens is getting the bill for this broken hand.
T.O. looked like the Baby Drop of old last night—dropping first downs and fumbling TDs in the end zone.
And can we please kill the whole “popcorn” bit?
Question to the NFL Network: Why do you allow Bryant Gumbel to continue calling games?
He's ruining your product.
To say Gumbel is the worst commentator I’ve ever had the displeasure of hearing is a compliment. He can’t even get the names of the teams right.
No wonder Time Warner won’t pick you guys up.
Think Brett Farve wants to EVER come back to Dallas?
Of course it goes without saying that the following picks AGAINST THE SPREAD are for RECREATIONAL USE ONLY. Only Britney Spears, Paris Hilton, Lindsay Lohan, Kiefer Sutherland, Mike Leach, Bill Belichick, Bill Simmons, Roger Goodell, and Travis Henry's nine kids and nine mommas would be drunk enough to question the Esteemed Liver's picks.
Last Week Against the Spread: 10-6
2007 Record Against the Spread: 78-88-10
Sunday, December 2
Houston (+3 1⁄2) at Tennessee
It would seem that the Amazing Vince has hit a rough spot. Guess he can’t do it all alone.
The Titans are coming back to Earth after a good start. That’s okay—I still have my 2005 National Championship memories (and the DVD) to keep me warm over the holidays.
Houston has taken a step forward, but needs a healthy season from their offensive starters before they can be serious playoff contenders.
Pick: Tennessee
Jacksonville (+7) at Indianapolis
At least there’s one good game this weekend.
The Colts come off a much-needed 10-day rest, and should be getting back most of their wounded.
The Jags, meanwhile, have weathered their own storm of injuries, and are one game behind Indy in the AFC South.
Jacksonville has traditionally come up short in games like this under Jack Del Rio, so the pressure is on to prove they belong amongst the AFC Elite.
Pick: Jacksonville
San Diego at Kansas City (+5)
San Diego had a big win last week, but the Bolts are 1-4 on the road this year.
While Kansas City isn’t a team to be feared, Arrowhead in December is still a tough place for ANY team to win.
Pick: Kansas City
Atlanta at St. Louis (OFF)
I think my Bloody Mary needs refreshing.
Pick: St. Louis
N.Y. Jets at Miami (PK)
I SAID, I think my Bloody Mary needs refreshing.
I’d rather go hunting with Bob Knight and Dick Cheney than watch this game. First person to three wins this dog.
Pick: Miami

Let's see, lock of the week already passed (over in the greenbay/dallas game)
More Locks:
Over in the cleveland/az game
Over (if it doesn't rain or snow) in the Giants/Bears game.
Under in the Jets/Miami game. The final: 0-0 after overtime. The Dolphins creep back towards respectability with a tought fought tie.

God has nothing to do with it anonymous coward. By the way...there are these people called EDITORS that go over these pieces after they've been submitted. Mediocre seems to be a word you're familiar with. Write a piece for the web site, post it, then we'll see who's mediocre.

These picks are to COVER not straight up. I like Indy to win because they re at home but I think Jax plays well enough to cover. It s an inexact science.

This week was a tough week for calling spreads. Didn't matter what kind of "expert" was calling the answers...

Couldn't agree more...the whole season has been whacked out...I haven't seen but a handful of bookmakers that CLAIM to be barely over .500 against the spread...I think all this parity, free agency and salary crap has finally caught up to the game...what scares me is that Goodell wants to EXPAND into Europe....that would make the league unbearable to watch....I know I'll be accused of being an elitist since I am a well documented Cowboys fan BUT wasn't this league better overall from top to bottom before the salary cap hit?
I don't understand why baseball doesn't have to have one but football does...again I know it's easy to say when you're a fan of one of the teams that traditionally is one of the best, spends money and a true love em or hate em team but until this season I couldn't have imagined that there would be Sundays (when the Cowboys weren't playing) where I would barely watch an hour's worth of games...usually I'd be glued all day and most of the night...now three fourths of the teams are run of the mill to downright boring....scary
