2013 NFL Predictions

Last year I nailed the Super Bowl Champion, missed on the NFC participant. 2nd time in the last 7 years I at least got the champion right (picked the Colts over the Bears in 2006), hitting .285 isn't bad, would be a nice MLB career average. This year’s picks I'm going a little out there different, and Pete Prisco of CBS Sports proved to me I'm not totally crazy.

AFC East – New England Patriots
AFC North – Cincinnati Bengals
AFC South – Houston Texans
AFC West – Denver Broncos
AFC WC – Baltimore Ravens
AFC WC – Miami Dolphins

NFC East – New York Giants
NFC North – Green Bay Packers
NFC South – Atlanta Falcons
NFC West – Seattle Seahawks
NFC WC – New Orleans Saints
NFC WC – San Francisco 49ers

AFC Championship
Cincinnati over Denver

NFC Championship
Atlanta over Seattle


SUPER BOWL
Atlanta over Cincinnati




CBS Experts picks.

2013 Big Ten Predictions

It's game week!  Prediction time!



IF Ohio State goes 12-0 I think Braxton Miller is your Heisman Winner.

I think that Indiana and Iowa both could have 2 more wins….and 2 mor losses than I have predicted.

I think Ohio State could get knocked off somewhere in the Big Ten season, but not at home, I think it would be a road game they slip up on.  To go 24-0, 25-0 at OSU for Urban would be an amazing feat.

I could see any of Nebraska, Michigan State, Northwestern or Michigan winning the Legends.


2013 Summer Movie Awards

School starts tomorrow, which is a sign summer is over.  This is the 5th annual summer movie awards that I've done.  Some people and movies are moving into some prestigious territory, looking at 2 time winners and movie franchises taking home more hardware too! 

This summer also movies are coming out and hitting DVD quicker then usual so some movies may have been seen on DVD.  

Movies seen this summer:
GI Joe Retaliation, The Croods, Iron Man 3, Epic, Star Trek: Into Darkness, Man of Steel, Fast and Furious 6, The Heat, 42, The Wolverine, Red 2, Olympus Has Fallen, Mud, Planes
  



Best Movie – Star Trek : Into Darkness

Best Dude – Harrison Ford : Branch Rickey : 42

Best Dudette –  Melissa McCarthy : Mullins : The Heat 

Best Scene – Spock and Kirk while Kirk lays in the Enterprises reactor : Star Trek: Into Darkness

Best Fight –  Mike Bannig going John McClane through the White House for about the last hour of Olympus Has Fallen

Biggest Dud –  Iron Man 3 – There are little parts where I would have changed things differently.  I didn’t like the changing how they used the Mandarin, Ben Kingsley would have made a great villian himself.  He is supposed to be someone that is like the Joker to Tony, and it started out that way.  I also didn’t like all the suits, it reminded me of Tranformers 2 with all the extra Decepticons that you didn’t know who were getting blown up.  It’s cool to see all the tech Tony has in making the all the suits BUT nothing beats the old red and gold suit. This had a different flair from the previous 2 Jon Favereu directed flicks.

Anticipated Sequel – Star Trek 3

Summer movie not seen that I want too – Now You See Me & Despicable Me 2
