:10–As is my style, I will make my stone cold predictions before the game. And your knowing that I am a former “Life Boy Scout” can be assured that you can trust my honesty and integrity. (Unless of course there’s money involved…then all bets are off!)
:09–That being said… and as I’ve been known to say…you can take this to the bank. For as much as I would like Lamar Jackson to get to a Super Bowl…maybe not win it—sorry! The rumor of Kansas City’s demise has been greatly exaggerated. Coach Andy Reid and Patrick Mahomes will bring the Kansas City heat and win, 27-14.
:08–Now, of course, you take exception with that and primarily because you/we expect Baltimore D-Fence to rain down on the Chiefs. But in today’s NFL, offense sells tickets and with the dreaded yellow defensive interference flags, it’s no longer true that defense wins games.
:07–Wrapping up a long but great day of football will be a goodie. The San Fran 49ers will take all the steam out of the Detroit Lions engine. I could be wrong, but my guess will be even Motown’s greatest hits won’t save the Lions. This is going to hurt, but the truth always does. The 49ers rout the Lions, 31-21.
:06–If that projection works out, then you’re looking at a 49ers vs. Chiefs Super Bowl. Sprinkle in your Taylor Swift pop-ups and Usher on skates at the half and I’d say you’ve got a good one. Prediction then…the Chiefs win again in repeat motion! Yep! Take all that to the bank, do it, just do it!
(Editor’s note: Bill Neal correctly predicted the two championship games. Kansas City won over Baltimore, 17-10, and San Francisco defeated Detroit, 34-31.)
:05–Speaking of Taylor Swift. Will you never was and wannabes sitting at home pickin’ your nose and sipping on your brew, PLEASE – GET – A – LIFE! You know damn well if your brother was dating a superstar, you would be all in. You’re watching 120 minutes of football and you see Taylor Swift maybe three minutes total, c’mon man!
:04--I would give you a Penguins report, but as you know, I don’t have a clue about the game. But I’ll tell you this. They better step up their game and fast. Sid “the Kid” Crosby ain’t getting no younger. (I don’t know much, but I know that!)
:03–Your Pitt Panther men’s basketball team… asked if I would be talking about the women’s team —sorry, but I told ya the truth hurts… is hanging tough in ACC competition. The upset at Duke, 80-76, was monumental to be sure. And it was important that they maintained their focus and beat a lowly Georgia Tech team, 72- 64. It goes without saying the trifecta against Miami would have been sweet, and was in their hands with a late game comeback, but they fell short, 72-68. Hold tight, the best of Pitt basketball is yet to come…c’mon man, I said men’s!
:02–Of course I’ve got a lot to say about the situation with the Aliquippa football team and you’ll hear all about it in a future column, trust me!
:01–YOUR PITTSBURGH PIRATES PITCHERS AND CATCHERS REPORT TO CAMP FEBRUARY 15TH…YOU’RE WELCOME!
:00–GAME OVER!
