FOOTBALL PICKS: THIS WEEKEND

Work didn't settle down.

Listen. I know you all hate picks blogs. I am not going to be like that. Please stand by while I try to straighten everything else out.

You'll notice if you look to the right of this page that my FanHouse work has also suffered. So this place isn't the only one.
