I know Mark Brunell is the guy who beat the Cowboys, but this is not a day for Mark Brunell, who will get eaten alive by Osi Umenyiora and Michael Strahan if he goes back to pass 27 times. This is a day for Clinton Portis, who has averaged 21 rushes a game this year and needs to run it 29 times in this game to keep the ball away from Tiki Barber as much as possible.
Washington 21, New York Giants 20

This prediction of his made me laugh:

Detroit (4-10) at New Orleans (3-11)
I just want to say one thing to the gamblers of America, all 163 million of you: If you put one lousy yen on this game, you are out of your cotton-pickin' mind.
New Orleans 3, Detroit 2

Is Peter King picking us to jinx us now?

Just like the theory in the other thread about Theisman.

The only thing funnier would've been if he had the Saints scoring a negative number, lol.

i owuldn't be surprised if the score actually happen to turn out that way

I was thinking the same thing. Saturday will likely go down to the wire, the way I thought the Dallas game would. I could certainly go for a clutch kick from Mr. Hall.

Why Peter King, Why? How dare he jump on our bandwagon now. I hate you Peter King!

King is a Hack. As is Sally Jenkins. I won't read King until Art Monk gets properly inducted into the HOF.

[The Skinsinator]

I don't think King is so anti-Redskin as others (Pasta, Jenkins, etc.) We may believe him to be moreso because of his consistent and most inaccurate stance of not putting Art Monk in the HOF. That in itself is most anti-Redskin and ludicrous but for the most part his work isn't too bad.

Jesus, who is any good then?

I think your underestimating us Redskin fans hatred for anyone that not only doesn't believe Art Monk deserves to be in the HOF, but also boycotts voting for him EVERY YEAR and actually lobbying against him.

[bigcmr]

Boycott, boycott, boycott, Peter King is a fat slob. So it does not matter what ever he says. As far as im concerned he is a joke.

dogood, i love kelly johnson, but in that pic she looks a lil man-ish...

Oh, he does FAR more than simply boycott voting for Monk. King actively stumps AGAINST Monk going into the HOF year in and year out. He is one of, if not THE singlemost reason Art Monk has not been enshrined in Canton. Yet, somehow, King can vote for and advocate the likes of Marcus Allen and his whopping THREE 1000 yard rushing seasons getting into the HOF. And why? Because it was not Monk's personality to talk to the media -- like King.

Peter King should burn in hell.

I guess I am. Monk not being in the HOF is an absolute joke, BTW.

Kelly Johnson is on the RIGHT dummy.:D

Jesus, who is any good then?

Anyone who argues that a man who retired as the #1 WR in receptions, and #3 in yards while helping 3 teams win superbowls and a 4th appear in one is not HOF worthy because "stats aren't the end all be all" and then goes on to use stats like # of TD's and # of Pro-Bowls to make his argument, and mis-uses his vote and his platform to make an annual campaign of this nature cannot be taken seriously as football reporter.

SI doesn't have a writer worth reading, and I won't.

That is exactly how I feel. King not only votes against Monk, but he actively lobbies against him to the other voters.
