Ernesto the Prediction Iguana went a dismal 3-3 last week, 1-2 in teasers, dropping the season totals to a mediocre 7-8 in teasers, 20-10 overall. Who knew the Steelers would turn into a football team after those miserable losses to Cleveland, Baltimore, and Tampa? Thanks Packers for not covering, (for the first time this year with us anyway). And the normally...
We’ll have our recap of last night’s COMETS-barons Game 7 up later tonight. In the meantime, never let it be said that we don’t engage in self-effacing humor here:) Send in your captions too. Winner gets their’s published. AND KEEP IT CLEAN PEOPLE:) The best so far… 10. I had one drink with Jay and look what happened. 9. Who’s that...
by Jay Flemma, Special to Facewash Magazine UTICA, NY – There’s an old saying in football: if you have two quarterbacks, you have none. (See “Redskins, Washington” for Exhibit A). There’s a different saying in hockey: if you have two goalies, you win, and the plucky, feisty Utica Comets proved that adage true again. Continuing their...
COMETS DOUSE FLAMES, STREAK TO VICTORY IN HOME OPENER By Jay Flemma – Special to Facewash Magazine UTICA, NY – Riding a second consecutive shutout by goalie Jacob Markstrom and two 3rd period goals by Nicklas Jensen and Brandan DeFazio, the Utica Comets smothered the Adirondack Flames 3-0 in their home opener at a buoyant and rowdy Utica Memorial...
So until we get my new hockey writing website up and running, (not long now, I promise!), my new live coverage hockey column, FACEWASH! will appear here. Get psyched hockey fans – all the hard-hitting bone-jarring, sharp-shoooting action is coming at ya…Jay style! We’ll put you right on the ice, so close you can hear the scrape of the skates on the...
Ernesto must have been asleep at the switch when he made last week’s picks, because our normally world-class prediction iguana went dismal 1-2 in teasers and a bland 3-3 overall. Hey Ernesto! Quit courting Ashley there and get back to winning! We’re a mundane 6-6 in teasers on the season 17-7 overall. Here’s the plays that are sure to get us well...
Ernesto and I went 5-1 last week, (2-1 in teasers), bringing the season totals to 14-4 over all, 5-4 in teasers. Our only loss was the LIONS-vikings game…who knew those teams had defenses? We also kept winning by going with the Niners and playing against the Jets. We look to continue those trends this week. GREEN LIGHT! panthers +13 at PACKERS seahawks -1/2 at...
So we (that’s Ernesto the Prediction Iguana and I) went 4-2 overall last week, but just 1-2 in teasers, (stupid Lions lost to the hapless Bills…at home! Weak effort!) Anyway that brings the young season totals to 9-3 overall, 3-3 in teasers, but it’s early days yet. Here’s this weeks picks. Watch out! This week the numbers were dangerously...

Welcome back to your one-stop shop for the best NFL picks in the biz. We here at AWITP bat a gargantuan better than SIXTY PERCENT winning clip here, both overall and in teasers. Here’s how it works: 1. We do teasers here, so you get to move the line six points either way in your favor, but you have to hit both picks. “But that’s harder” you...
I love the first three weeks of the season – you get to say “I told you so” a lot:) Dear Jay: Why do you start your Jay’s Plays NFL Picks as late as Week 5? I want to bet now. Signed, T.C. in the ‘Cuse Good to see you T.C. Here’s why we wait till Week Four or Week 5: BUffalo over Chicago, Miami over New England, Cinci won in...
While we await the Captain’s Picks for the Ryder Cup Tuesday morning, a lot has happened in the sports world! Are you ready for some football?! With the arrival of the season comes the return of the best sports prognostication on the Internet, (in the last four years:)) Ive been running at well over 59%, sometimes as high as five points more! This year...
Is this the worst World Cup in decades? Possibly. FIFA, scandalized by match fixing allegations, opens the tournament with more of the same. Home team Brazil gets a phantom penalty; Croatia gets bounced as a result. Then one of the tournament’s premier players, Luis Suarez of Uruguay mistakes an Georgio Chelliini for a pepperoni pizza. Uruguay advances after...
So the South Regional gets one “play-in game” while the Midwest has three?? Some of the seeds are 16s while the others are 12s and 11s? You go to games in Orlando, but you’re seeing teams playing in the West and Midwest regionals? If there’s no home field advantage, why does Syracuse ALWAYS seem to be playing in Buffalo or Albany? Or Duke/UNC...
Congratulations to the Seattle Seahawks, punch line no more. That was a rout – the worst drubbing in 21 years. (Dallas throttling Buffalo 55-10 for those of you scoring at home…) We had the Broncos and the over, hitting only one of two and losing the teaser. That makes the season totals 32-20-1 in teasers, 80-25-1 overall. And so it’s back to golf...
