Gazing into Week 5

Since my baseball picks have been horrendous ( it shows that you should never pick with your heart rather than your brain)....lets us gaze into the future...Not giving up on the Cubbies however, Yanks have AROD thinking of a becoming a Pimp in another city already, duh!!! Just look at his performance again.

That being said, with Hal Mumme "leaking" out that hot shot qb Chase Holbrook, who threw for over 500 yds last year against an undefeated BSU team, will not start ( smells of propaganda)...the score should not change all that much 49-10 for the Broncs, in a rout by halftime. The speculation surrounding the lack of Holbrook for this game makes sense for NMSU, since they will get trounced either way, might as well have Holbrook rest up and look forward to returning against perennial pattycake, LA Tech. Enjoy the domination and the game is available for those with the ESPN network. Cripe's picks in Black

As for the unexpected baseball fiasco known as the Cubs...do not count them out. While game 1 left some with the harsh feeling of a good kick in the nuts, game two was ugly. Top 5 hitters better get it done, or they will be looking at 100 yrs of futility since they last won ( 1908, lil known fact, they actually won in 1907 as well).

As for the Tribe taking the Yanks to the woodshed, poor Alex Rodriguez, he will feel the brunt of criticism only to get a new 25-30 million per year contract next year on the west coast ( unless Mark Cuban buys the Cubs). Pity him, but on the holiest of days, at least for this week, Pronk looks to serve some justice on the Yanks fans who think they have a shot still.

I was wrong with the Rockies, having the energy to still get it done. Now can Jamie Moyer muster the strength to extend the series one more game @ the Rockpile.

As for the Sox, Manny being Manny is getting old, and while a friend mentioned that Manny playing left field looks like a Rastafarian circus clown, he straight mashed that ball, that K-Rod served up. The invincibility of K-Rod is shredded and former Mr. Clutch, Schilling throws bb's tomorrow down in SOCAL......Good luck Halos, you have no chance, especially with a one eyed Garret Anderson and Vlad being dinged.

Keep your pimp hand strong at all times an enjoy this great sports weekend ( since third on the burner is all of the decent nfl games on tomorrow).
