Fab 4 picks
OK, who loves to hunt entertainment more than us? Be it a Masters pool or Madness bracket or the ever loving flow of college football picks around these parts, we all love to be entertained, right?
(If we had to do a quick Rushmore of the most ‘talented’ entertainers ever, who you got? We think of the many talents of a guy like Sinatra, the elite moves and range of Elvis and/or Michael Jackson, and the amazing versatility and elite humor of a young Eddie Murphy. We can’t forget Carrot Top and Gallagher too. This will be tough.)
Twentieth Century FoxEddie Murphy portrays the captain of a crew of tiny, human-looking aliens that arrives on Earth in the perfect disguise – a spaceship shaped like the spitting image of the captain.
Any way, where were we? Oh yes, entertainment. Our NFL picks are the model of mediocrity. We are 4-4 after two weeks, which means with the added surcharges for non-entertaining picks and buying the half, we are in slight hole. Not like the senator’s daughter in “Silence of the Lambs.” More like the chubby gopher stuck in the hole in “Caddyshack.”
Of course, after a college season at 60 percent – a number that we were quite proud of against the spread – our entertainment prowess took a kick to the shins when the Magic 8 Ball went 4-0 last week. Alas.
