TheRealPicks Week 13: Burt Reynolds Edition

Welcome back kids!  Wow how about last week huh?!  I told you all I would do better by you moving forward and boy did we kick that off to the right start.  4-1 on favorites which should have been 5-0 barring the unfortunate injury to Duke Johnson and a 7-3 total record for the week.  If you were smart enough to take advantage of that, I congratulate you.  If not, you can’t say you didn’t know any better. Now on to this week’s spread, which unfortunately for you and I both, is quite frankly atrocious.  There are a lot of tough reads and games that don’t look to be very entertaining either. With that being said, I’ll be providing a slightly different line up for you, with the hopes that the strongest plays will carry us all through the week, and the “Honorable Mentions” list is just for confirmation if you already had an eye on one of those games.  As a consolation for this, I will be bringing back some bonus NFL action this week to tide you over until we get back to our regularly scheduled programming.  Read More

Glory Glory to Ernie Johnson

We all love the crew over at NBA on TNT. To me, there is no better crew of misfits than the Shaqtus, Big Ern, Chuck and the Jet. But last week’s UGA/Auburn game, and the obligatory bet between alumni Ernest and Chuck, UGA and Auburn respectively, has produced quite possibly one of the greatest moments in UGA football history (hyperbole of course).  Leave it to Big Ern to come up with such a fantastic wager as this. You know what…I don’t even need to spoil this anymore.  Just watch and enjoy.
