What a long week to belong to the Redskin Nation. That was an embarrassing loss that can only be erased with a win this week against Philthy. Besides the home team let- down, Denver and St. Louis continue to impress, while it’s the same ole same ole for the Vikes, Pack, Lions, Browns and Titans. … Read more

Thank you, Seahawks for making the Skins nation’s weekend complete. Talk about pressure on a deadline and not much time to research. The Hognosticator is on his way out the door with a wife in labor to deliver his first child, a son sure to bleed burgundy and gold. So forgive the short picks and … Read more

Now that’s more like it! If only Roethlisberger had started. I should have picked the Denver ground game over the New England passing attack in Denver. Week 7 promises to be a much tougher week, the Colts being the only ‘lock’, followed by, dare I say (forgive me Coach Gibbs) the Skins? Pittsburgh at Cincinnati … Read more

It makes picking winners a crapshoot. Norv, once again, tried to ruin the day, but thanks to the Raiders … Read more

Week three was pretty predictable with the exception of the Dolphins getting a big win at home against the Panthers. On to week number four’s selections… Houston at Cincinnati Carson Palmer and Chad Johnson are the real deal. The Bengal defense is scary good, picking off Orton five times last week. The Texans will wish … Read more

The more predictable results of week 2 allowed the Hognosticator to get his record back above .500. This weekend ended with a couple of Brunell’s arrows striking directly through the hearts of Cowboy fans everywhere, and the superb defensive play from the Redskins have made the entire season—regardless of outcomes—worthwhile. Week 3 may be a … Read more

Week one was full of surprises and upsets, and they took their toll on week one’s Hognostications! The 49ers take first place, followed by the Saints and Miami. New England at Carolina The Panthers will try and rebound from a tough loss to the Saints, but they will fall short. The loss of DT Kris … Read more
