Last week's Haiku Picks went 10-4. Season to date is 61-70-3. Why do I keep betting on the Browns?
Jim Behrle tweets at @behrle for your possible amusement.
So what was the verdict on Debbie? I'd google her myself but I'm at work and don't need that on my browser history.
This is my favorite of these. And I say that as a Colts fan. (What? I <3 Dwight Freeney. And baby horses.)
season's halfway point
sad that football ever ends
sadder these will, too
Off to a good start!
crisp weekend weather
punch drunk on fall and both
Jets and Niners win
You picked the Vikings I see
interesting brain
that selects the losing team
@Ranee Zaporski@twitter I believe he's picking vs. the spread here, so it's a bet that the Vikes will cover, not that they'll win. Which they sure won't.
@Flaneur
Whoops! Glad that I misinterpreted this. I was starting to get worried about the writer. (Does Jim need better circulation in his apartment? Is he typing "all haiku and no play makes me a dull boy" over and over again at some old hotel in Colorado? ) But now I see that I just need to learn how to read.
@Ranee Zaporski@twitter Of course, we now know he was wrong even about that. They didn't come close to covering. Looked like a JV squad out there.
How did your Debbie who did Dallas googling go? I thought about it but I'm too shy.
How the people's fist
is going to lose to Marquez
is unclear to me.
