NFL picks: oven mitts required
WARNING: If your computer has a touch screen, you may burn yourself. The NFL picks (I'm not even sure we can refer to them as picks at this point, certainties maybe) were positively scorching last week.
Lingo posted a sizzling 10-3-1 mark, followed by yours truely at 9-4-1. Any time our trailer is above .500 - Overton at 7-6-1 - you know we're good.
Yes, I just guaranteed one of us will go 2-13-1 this week. Karma.

While DON'T THINK is reluctant to waste space acknowledging it (despite space being infinite on the internet), after firing shots across my bow, it should be noted that San Bernardino Sun colleague T.J. Berka 'Kept It Real' last week with another losing record while each of the "Clay Fowler All-Stars" lived up to their given name.
