Week 5 Slick Picks

Cambodian Slick had last week off, but it was no vacation. I had to travel back to Cambodia to settle a paternity suit. That is all I’m allowed to say according to my attorney.


NFL PICKS

This week’s NFL slate is highlighted by the battle of the Bay, 49ers vs. Raiders. That game promises to be so intense, that I refuse to pick it, for fear of offending anyone.

Giants 36, Redskins 21 (NYG -5)
Chargers 24, Steelers 17 (SD -3)
Ravens 16, Broncos 6 (Den -4)
Eagles 17, Cowboys 16 (Philly -2)


COLLEGE PICKS

A little revenge is in order for the Sooners this week, as the Red River Shootout takes place down in the Cotton Bowl. Texas snapped a 6-game losing streak to Oklahoma in last year’s game.

Penn State 34, Minnesota 23 (PSU -3)
LSU 21, Florida 17 (LSU -1.5)
Georgia 30, Tennessee 28 (Tenn -2.5)
California 41, Oregon 34 (Cal -4.5)
Oklahoma 20, Texas 16 (Tex -4)
Kent 34, Temple 8 (Kent -24)

Anyone who is a 24 point dog to f’n Kent, is a dog who needs to be shot.


IFL PICKS

I’m all over the favorites this week.

Biff Pocoroba Massacre over Dragons
Napalm Death over Part Time Pimps
Dead Beats over Mighty Meatballs
BC Bombers over Lizard Kings
Notorious RVG over Blue Dogs
Razen Kanes over Nine Fingers

GAME OF THE WEEK: Mud Dogs (4-0) vs. Hit Squad (4-0). It’s been a while since 2 IFL teams who were unbeaten faced off this late in the season. The last time was 1974 when Jebediah Snyder’s Testes Busters and Grandpa Ellis’ Better than Prune Juice faced off in Week 6, with both teams 5-0. The Juice pulled it off of course, thanks to none other than O.J. Simpson’s huge day. Just a little history lesson for ya. Anything beats talking about these two teams…who’d have thought Mike P and Holland would get out of the chute winning their first 4 games, let alone win 4 games all season? Prediction: Hit Squad by 34, then they lose their last 8 games.


Have a great weekend, go Birds, and always, ALWAYS wear a rubber.
