[2019 Season Theme]: Week 5 Bad Memories, Indeed

2019-10-05T21:25:00.002-07:00

Saw this in the paper on Friday and did an actual LOL.

Makes me wonder how many people will have big 28-3 signs at NRG tomorrow.

Hell, I wonder if there isn't a game that the Falcons play without someone bringing a sign like that. It's crazy hilarious that those 4 characters are now synonymous with failure in our culture.

[2019 Season Theme]: Week 5 AND IT'S NO GOOD! IT'S NO GOOD!

2019-10-05T20:35:00.000-07:00

Not only did the Rams lose, they lost to maybe my #3 team and the most beautiful QB of all time.

I noticed that when I watched the game, LA did well and when I didn't watch, they were typically stagnant at best. It was therefore my duty to not watch the Rams last drive, but I did tune in just in time for the reply of the FAILED Field Goal attempt.

All in all, it was a good night.

[2019 Season Theme]: Week 4 WHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA Rams

2019-09-29T16:59:00.001-07:00

Many times, I make things too difficult for myself to do. Blogging is one of them, with the need to tag and have an image and all the theme things. After the despicable BS of Week 2 that made me realize that I can hate a team more than I hate the Cowboys, it was all too much.

But this week, I saw those plucky little Tampa Bay Buccaneers - at team that, this year, is floating around with Miami at the bottom of the barrel - head over to LA and beat them, 54-40. It's quite lovely, truly it is.

[2019 Season Theme]: Week 1 Why is anyone surprised that Miami sucked?

2019-09-08T19:30:00.001-07:00

Anyone surprised that Miami played so badly today hasn't done any research at all.

Miami ranked 32 (aka dead last) in NFL, Bleacher Report, and CBS Sports Power Rankings
Their overall Offense was 32 and overall Defense was 30 from my source
Their Defense & Special Teams ranked 29 and their Kicker was at 30
In the rankings of different parts of the teams, only their Secondary, at 18, had a close to respectable rank. The average for the other 7 metrics 29, ranging from 27-30.
They got a B in the grades for draft picks but both of their Free Agency grades were F.

My calculation has them dead last and has them going 2-14 after most of the other games of Week 1 are entered.

Baltimore, on the other hand, is solidly in the middle of every ranking. New England basically has a Bye next week.

This was to be expected.

[2019 Season Theme]: Week 1 Updated Readings

2019-09-08T15:23:00.002-07:00

I had to reset my crystal ball to reflect updated information for 2019 and some things changed, mainly in the AFC.

Minnesota, New Orleans, Philly, the Rams, and Carolina still make it to the playoffs. Dallas skirts in this time instead of, I think, Detroit.

On the AFC side, the update tanked Jacksonville and significantly boosted Cleveland. New England and Kansas City lead the group, with Tennessee, Chargers, and Pittsburgh round out their top 6.

Green Bay still misses the playoffs and the update puts them below the Bears, but above the Lions. However, factoring in Week 1 will undoubtedly change that - the updated calculation predicted Chicago. The update did nothing for Denver.

[2019 Season Theme]: Week 1 PACKERS

2019-09-07T18:42:00.001-07:00

Just dropped in to share this regarding Thursday night:

A win is a win, especially in Chicago.

[2019 Season Theme]: Week 0 Predictions

2019-09-02T21:22:00.001-07:00

Looking into my crystal ball, I see good things for Minnesota (but with predictable playoff results) and Jacksonville but New England should still dominate the AFC. New Orleans should be able to seek their revenge with Philly and Carolina making themselves known again.

Once again, Green Bay will miss the playoffs but will do better than the Bears. Elway will not be able to give Flacco another Super Bowl ring this year (far from it) and Cleveland will not perform as hoped.

READY FOR SOME FOOTBALL: Week 17 Predictions

2018-12-27T17:23:00.003-08:00

Ahead of time, for once. Most predictions are easy this week. I'm reserving judgement for some games until I can do analysis on Saturday.

Sunday Early Games

	MIA	at	BUF	This is a tricky one because Miami sort of appears to be the better team. Neither has playoff hopes though and it's in Buffalo. I'm sticking with the benchmarks and picking the Bills.

	DET	at	GB	PACKERS!!!!!
				PACKERS!!!!!
	JAX	at	HOU	Houston's playoff place isn't set in stone and a win coupled with a Patriot loss would give them a first round bye. The benchmarks and I agree that they'll be playing to win.

	NYJ	at	NE	Everyone agrees that New England has this one.
	CAR	at	NO	New Orleans has everything wrapped up but they aren't giving anything away.

	DAL	at	NYG	Jerry Jones has asserted that no one is resting for this game, even though a loss wouldn't mean anything. I think they'd be stupid to put their starters at risk and the better benchmark has the Giants by 6. This will be a game day decision.

	ATL	at	TB	Tampa Bay does better at home than Atlanta does on the road but everyone else says Atlanta will win.

Sunday Late Games

	CLE	at	BAL	Everyone agrees on Baltimore
	OAK	at	KC	Everyone agrees on Kansas City
	CHI	at	MIN	Chicago has no real incentive to win with the NFC North Championship wrapped up but Minnesota is in a win-or-go-home situation. The Benchmarks are split, with the better having the Vikings. I need to do more analysis for a final decision.

	CIN	at	PIT	Everyone agrees on Pittsburgh
	PHI	at	WAS	Everyone agrees on Philly
	SF	at	LA	Everyone agrees on the Rams
	SD	at	DEN	Everyone agrees on the Chargers
	ARI	at	SEA	Everyone agrees on Seattle

The day's most interesting game on Sunday Night

	IND	at	TEN	Here it is, the game of the week, the win-or-go-home game. It's too bad Romo won't get to call it. The benchmarks say Indy and I'm inclined to agree, even against all my calculations (as they are now).

READY FOR SOME FOOTBALL: Week 16 Predictions, Suspicions

2018-12-24T16:26:00.000-08:00

I lost faith in the Packers, but then again, that wasn't very difficult this year. My two other upset predictions turned out to be true, as did a couple suspicions that I didn't make into predictions.

Saturday Games
	WAS	at	TEN	Everyone picked TEN and they won.
	BAL	at	SD	The benchmarks had the Chargers (still SD for me) but given the quality of the Ravens' new QB, I had to up their ranking for the week, giving them the edge. Turned out that I was right.

Sunday Early Games
	NYG	at	IND	Everyone picked IND and they won. I wasn't completely surprised that the Giants had the lead for most of the game, as this one also gave me a suspicion, but it wasn't enough for me to change my pick

	JAX	at	MIA	Here, I had a suspicion that Miami couldn't win but I went with the benchmarks and picked them anyway.

	ATL	at	CAR	The benchmarks were split, the NFL still foolishly hanging on to Carolina's ability to win games, but the rest of correctly picked Atlanta to win.

	CIN	at	CLE	Everyone picked CLE and they won
	TB	at	DAL	Everyone picked DAL and they won
	MIN	at	DET	Everyone picked MIN and they won
	BUF	at	NE	Everyone picked NE and they won
	GB	at	NYJ	I didn't have faith and I'm not too impressed with the overtime win over one of the worst teams in the league. This is the only one of my three "upset" predictions that wasn't true.

	HOU	at	PHI	The benchmarks were split, with the NFL correctly identifying Houston as the better team. However, with Foles as QB and a playoff berth at stake, I cast suspicion aside and went with the other benchmark to correctly pick Philly.

Sunday Late Games
	LA	at	ARI	Everyone picked LA and they won
	CHI	at	SF	Everyone picked CHI and they won
	PIT	at	NO	Everyone picked NO and they won

Sunday & Monday Night Games
	KC	at	SEA	Three words: Seattle at home. The benchmarks had Kansas City but I just couldn't go along time time. Fortunately, for me, I was right.

	DEN	at	OAK	Oakland beat Pittsburgh so I definitely had a suspicion they could beat Denver but I went with the benchmarks, picking Denver, and missed the upset.

READY FOR SOME FOOTBALL: Week 14 Something Was Done

2018-12-09T10:20:00.000-08:00

For the past few weeks, I'd been saying, about the Packers, "something has to be done". Maybe it was "something has to happen", whatever, the intent was the same. The Packers needed to do something to change things, I just wasn't sure they would do anything.

I enjoyed the interview that FOX NFL Sunday did in Wisconsin with real Wisconie Packer fans because practically everyone was of the same mind. It seems like the only people that are upset are the talking heads. The fans range from "it's two and a half seasons too late" to "I'm sorry he lost his job during the holidays, but..."

I think McCarthy should go to the Browns. It would be good for both of them.

READY FOR SOME FOOTBALL: Week 12 I'm still here

2018-11-25T16:18:00.000-08:00

There once was a time in my life when I was bored, when I had nothing to do, but that time is not now. I've managed to fill my days now with anything and everything, not the least of which being keeping up with my picks which have been good. Up until Week 7, things weren't looking great - I was keeping pace with the main benchmark but just barely. That's when I reevaluated my algorithm and brought it back to the original intent. This adjustment took my season accuracy from about 64% to 70% and my accuracy for Week 7 to 100%. It's gone down since then but always comfortably above the benchmark.

The dark lines track the actual accuracy rate each week and the pale lines represent the trend lines, showing that my calculation, while more erratic than the benchmark, is trending better. Week 12 results assume the following:

Miami wins, against the prediction of both me and the benchmark (they're tied right now)
Denver wins, again upsetting both predictions (Denver is ahead right now)
Minnesota wins, as predicted
Houston wins, as predicted by the benchmark by upsetting my prediction (it's a long story)

READY FOR SOME FOOTBALL: Week 12 I Love Drew Brees

2018-11-25T13:43:00.000-08:00

Yeah, I said it and I mean it. Drew Brees is the GOAT, running for first downs better than Brady would have in his rookie season, making completions that make A-a-ron jealous.

From: https://www.reddit.com/r/Saints/comments/9mkzll/browns_fan_herebreesus_is_jesus_congrats_saints/

There he is, Breesus, King of the Drews

Don't get me wrong, I'm still a Packers fan, but they're not likely to do very well this year anyway - I mean, maybe they might, there is always hope.... But whatever, it's the Saints' year and Brees is on fire! It's a real joy to watch.

READY FOR SOME FOOTBALL: Week 3 The Power of One

2018-09-26T20:28:00.000-07:00

Four teams, two destinies, one record. Will they meet again in the Championship rounds? Doubtful for a couple, but it's still pretty cool.

AFC North

Week 1
Tie

Week 2
Loss

Week 3
Win

Week 1

Week 2

Week 3

NFC North

In case you don't remember, each one's tie was against their division rival.

READY FOR SOME FOOTBALL: Week 2 Drive-by

2018-09-19T19:38:00.001-07:00

Just a drive by post to remind you that the Packers defense is trash - nearly as bad as the Vikings kicking game.

TRASH TRASH TRASH TRASH TRASH TRASH!

READY FOR SOME FOOTBALL: Week 1 and Season Update

2018-09-08T09:52:00.004-07:00

Well, I guess I should have known it was too good to be true - that I didn't have the manually update information for certain weeks in order to get an accurate result for my calculation, but at least Chicago doesn't win the Super Bowl anymore.

UPDATE 9/9/2018

Every year is a relearning experience with my spreadsheet to try to remember all of the little tricks I've hidden within the cells. After a massive simplification effort that removed a number of experimental calculations and then data entry for the early games of Week 1, I discovered that the Master sheet used an area where the schedule was hand-coded to create the main calculation. (sigh) So I automated it to update it for this year and had to re-update those certain weeks mentioned above. This gave me a new-but-also-old Super Bowl prediction.

Conference								Conference
N3	MIN							JAX	A3
			NFC		Super Bowl	AFC
		N3	MIN		MIN	PIT	A1
				Champions
N1	PHI							PIT	A1


					Super Bowl
		N1	PHI		JAX	JAX	A3
					^Alternate^

The alternate is included because there is a disagreement between the two columns that I thought used the same calculation. One variation is in an AFC divisional playoff and puts either New England or Jacksonville into the Conference Championship. Regardless, however, Pittsburgh goes to the Super Bowl. The other is in the NFC Championship. If we do get the Battle of Pennsylvania, Pittsburgh would win.

~~Instead, my boy Cam Newton and his Panthers get their dream.~~

~~Conference~~								~~Conference~~
N4	~~CAR~~							~~TEN~~	A5
			~~NFC~~		~~Super Bowl~~	~~AFC~~
		N4	~~CAR~~		~~CAR~~	~~TEN~~	A5
				~~Champions~~
N3	~~MIN~~							~~JAX~~	A3

Sorry, Cam, you know you're still my angel. Also, I like what you're doing with your hair.

READY FOR SOME FOOTBALL: Week 1 Memories

2018-09-06T20:19:00.001-07:00

Last year, I watched my (now ex-)boyfriend's (then) team defeat the New England Patriots while sitting on my bed in the dining area because my bedroom carpet and floor was being treated for mold on account of the water that seeped into that room from Harvey's conveyor belt of ocean water just before. This year, I'm back on my couch, like a human again, not surrounded by furniture in a Tetris arrangement.

My numbers have Philly, but my gut went with Atlanta. In the second half, with all of Atlanta's injuries and the first touchdown of the season, I can't change my pick, but Philly might win this.

READY FOR SOME FOOTBALL: Week 1 Watch out for Chicago oh gawd no

2018-09-06T20:08:00.000-07:00

There was a moment when I didn't have all the stats in when we had Bizzaro World Super Bowl and Chicago defeated the Jets.

...

Just, no. Sorry about hurting your brain there.

So I put in more stats and Super Bowl 53 was Minnesota defeating Pittsburgh, which is a lot more believable. But still, I saw some good things for Chicago. I had one more stat: The Week 1 NFL Power Rankings. Then Chicago signed Mack and moved up 8 spots to number 15. That gave them the edge to defeat Minnesota twice and earn the Division Championship. And even at the 3rd seed, they move through the brackets until...

Better dust off that ol' Super Bowl Shuffle

Just remember...

THE BEARS STILL SUCK!

(Go Pack Go)

Oh Yeah, Football: Superb Owl

2018-01-22T17:29:00.000-08:00

Early predictions of Jacksonville's wild success this year proved true but the freight train that is New England is back in the Super Bowl this year anyway. I've done a lot of analysis since my last post and my playoff predictions are 7 for 10 and the benchmarks are 5 and 6 for 10.

On one hand, New England is the easy favorite and a blow-out is possible. On the other, it looks like Philly thrives on being an underdog. With my calculation, it turns out that Philly is just barely an underdog, with 9.8 points to New England's 10. Basically, the teams have an equal score and we can consider New England the favorite as if they were the home team.

	PHI	NE
	Upset Rates	Accuracy Rates
Specific	88% (7 of 8)	100% (1 of 1)
Overall	60%	86%

New England simply has not faced many opponents at home that were evenly matched. There are 5 more games at home where they had 1 point over the underdog and they won all those games.

This may look like a shoe-in for New England, but there is a lot to be said in Philadelphia's upset rates. They blew out Minestrone with a 53% Upset Rate to Minnesota's 71% accuracy rate. We can only $%#&ing hope.

Oh Yeah, Football: Week Thirteen Epiphany

2017-12-05T19:15:00.000-08:00

This was the week I discovered how to work player injuries into my calculation and it made all the difference. This week, the calculation lined up exactly with the benchmark except for Minnesota and Atlanta. My calculation had Minnesota and the benchmark had Atlanta. Guess who won...

Oh Yeah, Football: Week Twelve Predictions

2017-11-22T22:15:00.003-08:00

With three games happening tomorrow, I wanted to be sure I made my picks, and now, I have assessed them and can post them.

I should probably get up, brush my teeth, then head to bed now, but my foot is being used as a bed for both of my kitties and I can't bear to wake them.

Sure, it feels great, but I also know that, once woken, it's going to turn into a Cincinnati visit to Jacksonville up in here.

Visitor	Home	Calc	Certainty and Comments
MIN	DET	MIN	Unsure. The stats look good for both.
SD	DAL	DAL	Weak. Only due to certain circumstances this year.
NYG	WAS	WAS	Strong. There is a possibility for an upset here.
BUF	KC	KC	Unsure. KC has a bad Specific Accuracy Rate here.
TEN	IND	TEN	Unsure. I think I may end up sticking with TEN
CLE	CIN	CIN	Very Strong. But I always suspect that this upset will happen.
TB	ATL	ATL	Strong. The teams are closer than one might think.
MIA	NE	NE	Very Strong. Very, very strong.
CHI	PHI	PHI	Very Strong. Oh, so so strong.
CAR	NYJ	CAR	Strong. The Jets have a surprising Specific Upset Rate here.
NO	LA	NO	Unsure. This should be a good game. I hedged here.
SEA	SF	SEA	Strong. Depends on the QB situation, in many ways.
JAX	ARI	JAX	Strong. My calculation loves Jacksonville, but I'm not that sure.
DEN	OAK	OAK	Unsure. I mean, they're both kinda sucking right now.
GB	PIT	PIT	Very Strong. ::loud, wailing sobs::
HOU	BAL	BAL	Strong. Maybe not Very Strong, but Strong.

Oh Yeah, Football: Week Eleven Pickity Picks

2017-11-15T21:21:00.002-08:00

Here's what my calculation says about Week 11 and what I think about it.

Visitor	Home	Pick	Certainty and Comments
TEN	PIT	PIT	Very Strong. Pittsburgh at home is good. The Overall and Specific rates point to this pick being accurate.
JAX	CLE	JAX	Very Strong. Very, very strong.
BAL	GB	BAL	Strong. ::sobbing::
ARI	HOU	HOU	Very Weak. Arizona is not on the up and up, but Houston is in freefall.
LA	MIN	LA	Unsure. Minnesota is at home, but both teams are very strong this year.
DET	CHI	DET	Unsure. Divisional rivals, Detroit usually wins, but I have a feeling. It could just be gas, but whatever.
WAS	NO	NO	Strong. It's possible that Washington could win, but New Orleans appears to be the NFC South team to beat.
KC	NYG	KC	Very Strong. Honesty, I always feel like it's better to go into the Bye week on a loss.
TB	MIA	MIA	Weak. Neither team is very good and one benchmark contradicts me.
BUF	SD	BUF	Weak. San Diego appears to be doing well, quite unlike Buffalo.
CIN	DEN	DEN	Strong. As bad as Denver is, I think Cincinnati is worse.
NE	OAK	NE	Very Strong. Once the favorite, Oakland is just inconsistent. New England, however, calls the shots.
PHI	DAL	DAL	Unsure. I'm skeptical about Philly's success.
ATL	SEA	SEA	Unsure. Jesus Christ, I don't know.

Okay, bed time.

Oh Yeah, Football: Week Ten Tears of Joy

2017-11-12T20:55:00.002-08:00

Monday morning, or just after noon, I forget, I get a chat message at work. It's my Personal Trainer, asking how my projections changed based on Dallas not losing to Kansas City. It was yes and no because Jacksonville was still projected to win the Super Bowl, but now they were going to defeat Dallas. Then there was news that Elliot's suspension was canceled for the whole season and I really didn't realize what I had unleashed a few weeks ago. He even accused me of being a Cowboys fan on Tuesday, which was totally uncalled for. At least one person told me that I should have smacked him for that. Personally, I think the only proper reaction to that is a straight-on projectile vomit to the face.

In any case, now we are here in Week Ten and my prediction for Thursday was correct, but somehow it created a truly horrifying result in the predictions.

At that point, even a loss to the Falcons didn't keep Dallas out of the Super Bowl, though it was of the simple, projected kind.

But then, the Football Gods spoke. Perhaps it was Reggie White that looked favorably upon our world, reinstated Zeke's suspension and bequeathed upon us a Green Bay Packer WIN WITHOUT AARON RODGERS?!?!?!?! OMG, PACKERS WIN!

GREEN BAY PACKERS WIN WITHOUT AARON RODGERS!

Honeycomb even managed to throw a touchdown pass! OMG OMG OMG I now want to cry again, but in a good way! Sure, we may only have one or two more wins on the season, but who cares? Certainly not me. We beat the Bears, we beat the Cowboys, everything's okay.

Okay, so wait, what? Where was I? Okay. So, other calculation predictions also came out accurately except the Jets beating Tampa Bay, but I figured that one would be wrong and it was time for the late games. I went back and forth between Dallas at Atlanta and Houston in LA and then Forensic Files when both were on commercial. It was at this point that my cable started being weird, so I tried to reset it, which did not work. I checked all of the cable connections, including out of the wall, into and out of the splicer, into and out of the cable box, and into the TV and they were good.

Then I reset it again, it didn't work, then I called the cable company. The outage in my area would be fixed by 8:45pm. So I went for a walk. I decided to hit up the gas station closest to me for a Topo Chico and noticed that, hey, the cable company was out there, actually working on the problem.

But I had to walk, walk walk walk. My friend kept me up to date on the game. Prescott kept getting sacked and the Falcons got touchdowns! YES!

It was at HCC that I learned the final result and saw the cable truck driving away, which I assumed meant that the problem was fixed. I headed back over to the block and got some dinner from Spicy Girl. Now here I am, watching the completely predictable result of New England at Denver. After plugging all the numbers in, Dallas loses in the ~~Wild Card round~~, ~~the Divisi-~~, okay, ~~Conference~~? Oh sweet Jesus no, the result is the same.

Even the Football Gods can't help us now.

Oh Yeah, Football: Week Nine Wrap Up

2017-11-05T20:00:00.000-08:00

On Wednesday, November 1, as I left my local haunt, I reminded the newest waiter and former runner, Evan, of the valuable lesson he learned about waiting tables that night, one that I happened to witness earlier.

Me: So, Evan, what did you learn today?
Evan (a Texans fan): I learned that if I make fun of Rodgers' injury, my quarterback gets hurt.

Tbh, that wasn't a bad lesson either. Not that I'm happy about Watson's injury. After so many years of chaos, to have a star under Center (even though he usually wasn't directly under Center) was so nice to see. But alas, Week 9 was back to the usual for the Texans.

Best part of the Texans game, by far.

On the other hand, Houston was a little distracted this week, especially on Friday. I maybe saw an inning or two of the World Series this year and I don't recognize a single Astros player, but who can resist a parade?

WORLD SERIES CHAMPIONS, BABY! #Astros #Houston #WorldSeries

Oh Yeah, Football: Week Eight Call It Caught Up

2017-10-29T21:56:00.002-07:00

After a fantastic Friday and sh*tty Saturday, I had a good Sunday, starting on a walk around 9:30am. Unlike yesterday, I went Pokewalking east, down Truxillo to La Branch. I circled up to Baldwin Park, Dolce Delights, then the Museum District before finally hitting up Natacheese and ordered the special, to go.

From text message updates from my friend E, it sounded like my calculated picks were doing quite well, with Atlanta winning, New England holding on, and Philly routing the 49ers. Finally, around 4pm and with over 14,500 steps, I got home and settled in to sit until bedtime.

"An important job today is trying to keep those balls dry."

My calculation has done more than quite well, with 100% accuracy today. One hundred percent, 11 for 11. I was wrong about Thursday night and there is one more game, so the worst I can do now is 85%. But this also means that my weird Super Bowl prediction remains in place. On one hand, I like that it doesn't just put the two first seeds in the big game. On the other hand, seriously?

Some of the teams end up with the same records, so the seeding is a little flexible, but it doesn't seem to matter. Jacksonville always defeats the Rams in SBLII. Always, always ALWAYS.

Oh Yeah, Football: Week Six Oh Gawd No

2017-10-16T08:59:00.000-07:00

Another weekend, another round of games. I was in the process of adopting a cat and a few other dramas so I canceled my Persian lesson and got through my three day weekend without any driving. I also did a lot of work on my new Calculation Analysis spreadsheet, which gives me the percent accuracy of my calculation per team, based on the point advantage of the picked team. More on that later.

I was chilling at home, watching one of the early games, when I heard it. Aaron was hurt and was carted off the field. He could be out for the season.

NOOOOOOOOOOO!

It was a collarbone too, and shades of Tony Romo* and RG3 came flashing to my eyes. I swear I saw it in Rodgers' face on that cart too. Could it be the start of the end of the era? Two decades is a long time to always be a playoff caliber team (save a couple of off years). Are we due for 2, 3, 5, or 10 years in the shit house, or could Brett Hefferwisen be our next best thing?

I'll be honest, this was the first Brett that came to my mind.

On the other hand, this could be the shot in the arm the Packers need. I think back to mid-season last year, when I realized that they needed to win out the rest of the season to even have a chance at the playoffs. When this was appropriate. I hoped that would make them regroup, get a few different free agents, and stop relying on the Hail Mary as a game strategy. But then they did win out and learned nothing.

Well, now Aaron is gone, so they have to learn something, right?

In any case, this week also produced some great memes. Please excuse me and pay no mind to the loud wailing sobs.

Here's to the All-Star IR Team :'(

Oh, yeah, and regarding the Cowboys last week and my trolling, I still have no regrets.

*When he was a QB, not God's gift to football announcing.
