Spread specutation — Week 10 NFL

  ChabDog's last stand heading into Week 10's weekend games: Colts-Pats:  Colts should be able to withstand the little Mac attack and cover the 1.5, whereever it is being played. Niners-Jags:  Those guys are Jags, and they are pretty good.  Yeah, I'll take them...

ChabDog’s Not-so-quick Picks for Week Nine:

Dolphins-Chiefs -- I wouldn't give the Chiefs much more than 3, that's for sure. Chiefs are coming off a bad loss, and that might be the only reason I'm going with the Chiefs.  Chiefs cover the 2.5... probably not by much. Commies-Patriots -- The thought of the...

TNF Update — Nov. 2 (Steelers over Ti-tans

Lots of hometown hereos in today's spiritually uplifting win for the still standing Steelers. There were the running backs Warren and Harris, who together easily outgained the much balllyhooed Henry. There was Broad-erick Jones, the rookie who stepped in quite capably...

Frank Howard Tribute…

Somewhere in heaven, "Hondo" aka The Capital Punisher aka The Washington Monument, is looking down through his fogged up glasses, and smiling. His franchise is 1 game away. Possibly the most feared hitter in the AL from 1968-1971 or thereabouts, with serious power and...

ChabDog’s Survivor Pool Update:

    Was backed into a bit of a corner tonight, trying to come up with this week's suicide pool selection. Took a flier on Carr and the Saints.. Seemed very difficult to find a heavy favorite at home this week. Cleveland also looked good, at home against...

ChabDog’s Week 8 Recap —

Except for a few sustained, well-conceived and well-executed drives, it was no beauty pageant for Bagent. Bengals extract some super revenge for those painful Super Bowl defeats, and rekindle expectations that this team will complete the business it failed to finish...

ChabDog’s Monday Nitro Update:

-- Could this finally be a sustained turn in the right direction for Kirk Cousins, who was nasty good on a Monday Night. A fitting end to a completely nuts and destructive week. I feel about as beaten up as Luke fighting George Kennedy, and coming back with nothing....

ChabDog’s Friday Night Fantasy Frights:

-- The long hot deep-in-the heart of Texas Summer swoon came a bit late in the year, but it has come nonethless. Texas hands Houston control of the series, in what appears will not be a series won exclusively by the visitors. The plane, Boss! -- Phillies throw their...

Thursday Nitro — NFL and MLB updates:

--If there was one night to own Amazon Prime it would have been this night. A predictable dog fight, right down to the final series. Yes, I could see some Foster Brooks in Foster Moreau. Maybe it could've worked out differently if the Saints had run the ball more and...

Monday Nitro Update: Oct. 16, 2023

Dear Justin.... don't you know that in the end, this bear hug would always be there, for Micah. And passersbys on the streets of Ingewood heard the whispers, ....it took awhile but eventually Herbert would be wearing Ware. Dallas squeezes Brandon's baby blue Chargers...

ChabDog’s Week 6 NFL Recap

    Bearded Blunderer sowes his own doom with poor time management at the end of the 1st half, only to fall one yard short on the game's final play. Tyrod's squad is ultimately eclipsed by my Suicide Squad, and I couldn't be happier. Ti-tans play like they...
