Every writer picked the Boyz to cover the spread and win the game out right except for one writer who picked the Bills to cover the spread and also picked the Bills to win the game outright!

Guess who that ninny was?

He will never learn will he...

Ding of course.... I mean to off picked them against the spread was a stretch but to pick them to win???

Tex

P.S. I know I can't insult other forum members but in extreme cases like this are we allowed to call Goose a ninny? If not I guess I apologize.... sort of... NAHHHH! LOL

Link?

Edit: LINK

Gosselin picked Buffalo against the line and for the win. Cowlishaw picked Buffalo against the line, but Dallas for the win. Everyone else picked us both against the line and for the win.

Dallas Morning News. Right below Gooses Column on page 4c. In a section called NFL Picks.

where Todd Archer, Albert Breer, Cowlinshaw, Goose, Sherrington, JJT, Joe Trahan and Calvin Watkins pick all the NFL games both against the spread and straight up to win every week.

I have no idea if its online. Feel free to go search.

Cheers

par for the course.

Last year he predicted us to lose to houston and tennesee.

I always find it hilarious the weeks we lose he comes on with norm and all he wants to talk about is the cowboys and what they cant do and how he thought they would game x...

when we win he talks about how the pats and colts and ravens are so great....

I blame norm hitzges, who I love, for that. He throws him softballs and never once has called him on his contstant negative attitude towards the team.

I personally dont care, but I do find it ironic with his radio interviews each week.

Funny thing is goose said we would win easily 3 days ago.


Maybe his employer should drug test him?


:laugh2:

That's what I thought. What a *******.

Is it really that important for his collegues to see him as a non-homer, realistic Dallas writer? For the love of everything holy... just tell us what you really think, like you did a few days ago.

:banghead:

Has Goose picked us to win a game yet?
He picked us to win against the Rams, but he picked the Rams against the line.

He's picked us to lose every other game. He's honestly picked us to be 1-4, yet we'll be 5-0. That's just sad.

Well, eventually his prediction will come true. If he continues to pick against us, my guess is he'll be more wrong than right.

That's what I think he's doing... knowing that most teams eventually have a let-down game... he's continuing to call the games against us so that he can say, "I told you so" when he finally gets one right. :rolleyes:

If the article has Goose's name in it but doesn't have NFL Draft included, i disregard. Outside the draft he's a know nothing.

That's cool. In our football pool my upset pick was Cleveland over NE.

Shame on me, I know....................but it's a $150.00 pick............should NE be banned from football saturday night, I may buy me something nice. :)

All you have to do is look down at the bottom of that chart, at those "experts" picks straight up, to realize none of them knows a whole lot about pro football... I'm at 40 correct picks, a .645 percentage (right at my normal average of about 65 per cent, year in and year out), which would tie me with Cowlishaw for the best record in that bunch... against the spread, I've picked 32 winners to date, which would again tie me for best record in that bunch, with Gosselin...

And these guys are gettin' paid big bucks to be "football experts"?? I see little reason to get bent out of shape over any of their picks, laughing at them would seem to be the way to go...

He's not near the draft guru that some of y'all make him out to be either... what he basically does is research everybody else's opinion, and try to figure out a consensus... for sure, he doesn't analyze players, indeed I'd bet he wouldn't even know where to start... I could name a half-dozen Cowboys fans on assorted boards (including myself, in all immodesty) who know more about the draft-eligible players each year than he does... all we lack is his contacts with teams around the league... give me that, and I guarantee you I could blow him out of the water...

And i'd be willing to bet i've been at it longer than you.
