RIP Steve Irwin aka crock hunter
I am sad to hear that a personal hero of mine who time in and time again went further off the deep end the in could ever imagine(restling with aligators) has passed away. He served selflessly to the people of Austrilla. With no regard for his personal safty he time in and time again did not hesitate to jump into crock infested waters to tie up an aligator. Or puting a deadly piosonis snake that if bit him would kill before he hit the ground into a trance. He served on the frount lines of our battle with nature. He showed us that we truely are the kings of the jungle. He died in the way he lived his life wrestling with some god knows what animal. It is probaly the way he would have wanted it. We will never forget the dignity that he brought to his job. Or is bravery in tie up some dangours beast. Or the courage conviction and joy that he brought to his job. I think all of us remeber the first time we saw him. When we woundered who is this guy and more importantly why does he have his head in that aligators mouth. His death is a loss. Steve Irwin your candle has burnt out long before your legend ever will.

Vegas has made another mistake by picking KC of Cinci
Sportsbook.com has a three point spreed in favor of KC in this game. Both of these defenses suck and both of there Os are great. This game will be a shoot out and the Bengals definitly have the bigger guns.
Big Ten is going to Win 2 Big Games This Week
The spreeds have not come out yet for next weeks college games but there are two games that I am calling now.
1. Penn State over Notre Dame
Notre Dame is the media darlying who is always overrated. They looked less then their number 2 rank against unranked Georgia Tech. Last year they did not realy beat any top tear teams. Their defense will have trouble against Penn States offense. And I think Penn States defense will be able to keep Brady Quinn and company under control enough to probaly win the game and at least cover the spreed which will be way to high.
2. Ohio State over Texas
Texas has a untested quaterback and even though he did well against North Texas is not ready for a big time team like OSU. OSU is back and wanting revenge this season and ready to take it. The spreed has not come out you but i predict since the game is in Texas that they will favor Texas by about Three points.

Louiville is in a World of Hurt
Louiville had an impressive win last night but unfurntinitly for me they lost their star running back Bush. Sportsbook.com had them with the best odds to win the Big East and I agree and put money down on them. Furtunitly though they have not since ajusted their odds. Their is a huge oppurtunity now to pick West Virigina as the Big 12 champs.

Miami only favored by 3
Miami is going to crush Flordia State tomorrow. FSU is a has been and will take at least three years until they are a top tear team again. My prediction Miami by 21+ points.
FOR GIVE ME PAYTON FOR I HAVE SINNED
I have done a bad thing. I have bet against the colts on sportsbook.com. They have them listed as 3.5 point favorits. It is not going to happen. With Edgeron James they are hopless this year, I predict the Colts take the last wild card spot. I know I am going to hell for doing this but i got to pick the Giants in this one. I love the Colts but it is going to be a tuff year for them. With out a running game defenses will be able to bring some hard blitzs and Payton might even get hurt.
