1. Mid October 09 - Nuggets to win the NC - - Loss (2nd Round)
2. Mid October 09 - Texas to win the NC - - Loss (2nd round)
3. Mid March 10 - Phillies to win the WS - Pending
4. Early June 10 - Brazil to win the WC - Lose
5. Mid August 10 - Alabama to win the BCS Championship - Pending
Two weeks from the start...here were some earlier leans...
Colts +875 - They seem to be the book favorite. They'll be good as usual, but every year they have injuries on the defensive side. Will Bob Sanders play? Will Freeney play like he did years ago? Too many questions for me on the defense
Cowboys +1000 - Great team, but as long as Wade Phillips is there coach, no.
Chargers +1150 - This team is too up and down for me. They always start slow which is always a bad sign. Who knows how they play without LT and Merriman coming off an injury plagued year
Ravens +1175 - Too many injuries already, Foxworth being out and Ed reed having more and more injuries every year now.
Packers +1175 - Not unless they improve there defense a great deal
Vikings +1350 - **** you Favre
Jets +1400 - Don't trust the offense
My Pick :
Patriots +1400
By damnit I hate them but you can never count them out. Brady is now gonna be 2 years off his injury. Can never discount his connection with Moss. Wes Welker looks good coming off a bad injury at the end of last year. Edelman has been really stepping it up. I think Aaron Hernandez will also help them out, he was a great player @ Florida. They've got a young defense, and they lost Thomas, but I think they will be serviceable this year. Go Pats :doh:
