CHARLESTON AIR FORCE BASE, S.C. –
John "Hitman" Hearn asks Team Charleston, "Who's Your Daddy?" while standing alone at the top for the second consecutive week.
John's 11-2 mark was equaled by Kenneth "Shockmeister" Shockley, Louis "Little General's" Class and Beth "Sea" Trout. Not only did the "Hitman" predict a Monday Night Football win for Philly, he nailed the exact score. It was nice for the "Super Swami" to watch this repeat, vested with the knowledge that some of my genius is finally starting to rub off on the contestants.
This week saw the "St. Louie Clams" lose their 17th game in a row. You knew that coaching job was in trouble when the marching band formed a noose at half-time. The Colts, Broncos and Saints remain undefeated. The Swami's five-star pick of the week saw his beloved Steelers pin the first "L" on a tough "Vikes" squad.
They say football is a game of inches and that's exactly how the Redskins moved the ball. The only way they can gain yardage is to run their game films backward. I thought one of the linemen had a tattoo on his leg, but it turned out to be a government meat inspection stamp.
This week's "dunce cap cellar dweller" award goes to the usually reliable Oscar "O-Train" Thompson. Thompson's train departed the station way before his predictions.
Now, without further delay I bring you my week nine, stone-cold, steel pipe-lock, fearless, sell the timeshare, five-star Daytime Emmy Award winning guaranteed predictions.
