Heavy Bolts Of Pb.

Look, if you type “Lead” some Sparky would read “Leed” and say to him or herself “heavy bolts of ‘Leed’…that doesn’t make sense.” Pat yourself on the back if you recognized the element.

Face facts, the Patriots and Colts are filling the league with heavy doses of dread.

They are the monsters this Hallow’s Eve. Everyone else fights for distinct privilege of losing to them in the NFL Playoffs.

Note to their respective fan bases; enjoy this, swagger, beat your chests. The likes of Staubach, Bradshaw and Montana never sent flowers and consolation to their opponents. Aikman and Elway cared precious little for the psyche of the other teams fans. Cleveland still weeps.

Did the ’85 Bears not literally dance on the Patriots?

Didn’t Elway snub the Colts in that famous ‘83ish draft?

Be humble but unafraid, remind the also-rans in the league that they are, well… also-rans.

Nice on the way-up is all fine and good for business, entertainment. But Football is “Sports, Business and Entertainment” so being nice doesn’t win games or sell merchandise being respected, smart, and tough on the playing field does.

And Pats and Colt fans; your respective teams are just that.

Checking the line
*MEFA Picks.
* Patriots -> Bill hath no love for Joe. Respect, sure but no love.
* Indy-> Unlikely the Panthers come within seven.
MEFA es muy bueno para las últimas dos semanas. Yo lo quiero.

Next week complete look at the numbers halfway; last week 8-8. Hooray beer.
Detroit-> The Nathans put the hurt on the Capones.

St Louis-> Off the snide against the Browns.

New Orleans-> In week two the Doctor said the Niners be HGHing by week eight.

NY Giants-> “Fish n’Chips guv’na”. “They’re mammals my good man”. Whatever. They’re done, that’s what they are. Though, Miami will be visited by a merry nanny and a happy chimney sweep at the hotel. So they got that going for them.

NY Jets-> Lose this Eric and the Doctor will continue to pick your team until your franchise winks out of existence.

Minnesota-> For absolutely no reason other then the Doctor drank out of …then wore a Viking helmet in college. It’s a good story, you see..er..nm.

Pittsburgh-> Not overlooking them this week. Thanks for last week. Nicely done.

San Diego-> If your friends, neighbors and family are being threaten by freakin WILDFIRES some thing tells me you’d want to hit some hard, really hard. No matter where you play.

Jacksonville-> Ka-Ching. Not I Ching or Ling Ling. But Ka-Ching.

Oakland-> Forget the win. Second half crappin’-the-bed hangover haunts the Titans.

Denver-> Broncos need to show the Rockies whose town this is.

Before autumn takes its full bite and the birds fly south let's look at this weeks picks.

Sorry(ahem) about last week.

“I’ll Gladly Pay You Tuesday For A Hamburger Today.”

Doctor Tomah was in weak condition. Oh 4-10 with the MEFAs’ panzering. Starving for a win, Monday Night Football and the Bills came through making an excruciatingly horrible week merely terrible. That slight bit of sustenance helped the Doc make it through, sans his bling shirt.

Have at it again, Doctor Tomah’stm Fresh Pickles.

* New England-> Bang, it’s done the Patriots are a MEFA pick. This New England Team is either great or their not. Time to find out.

* Cleveland-> Moral Victories? Romeo needs tangible results. His Offense will provide them.

Houston-> Know when to trust them, know when to flush them. This week believe in the Texans.

Kansas City-> Cincinnati’s coming off the bye week. Hey, so is Herm and the Chiefs, everyone’s rested.

Minnesota-> Hey, Minnesota is coming off the bye week. So are Lovie and the Bears…huh? Oh. Take the Vikes anyway. The joke works just once.

NY Jets-> The AFC East is just plain better than the NFC East. Newton’s Obscure Law “what sucks keeps sucking until acted upon by another suck force.”

St. Louis-> Baltimore beat San Fran 9-7. Next time have the shortstop bunt the runner over then pinch hit for the pitcher late in a game on the road. 9-7.

Tampa Bay-> The Titans strike The Doctor as a team that needs to learn how to win (and cover) on the road. Sh*t, they sure can’t do it a home.

Green Bay-> Screwed by the Pack. Screwed. So the Doctor is doing the rational thing picking them again.

San Diego-> Everyone loooves the Chargers now ”…oh, how they won big…” And the Doctor loves ‘em too. …This week.

Seattle-> The Seahawks get healthy. They are a touchdown better. (spooky voice) Remember Mike, a touchdown better…(end spooky voice).

Arizona-> Carolina’s season without Delhomme is adrift. Throw in battling 3-2’s; take the home team.

NY Giants-> Damn, Mad-Eye Moody drives the good Doctor crazy, but he has no reason to pick against him. Cue the “Falcons Woes Continue” headlines.
