Torrey the Prediction Cat lost his first opportunity to surpass Ernesto the Prediction Iguana in lifetime overall prediction percentage on this website. Torrey’s 1-3 record overall and 0-2 tally in teasers dropped him to 5-5 overall this playoff season, and 2-3 in teasers. The UNDERS in the Saturday games killed everybody, but the late flips on Sunday helped...
It was a 3-3 week for Ernesto the Prediction Iguana, as he got snake-bitten twice in one game when the Ravens laid an egg against the hapless Redskins. Also, what the hell, Cincinnati? That was dismal the wa they laid down against the Cowboys. On that note, Hey Dallas: Tony Who? Anyway, here’s this week’s picks. Cash ’em in. Home team in CAPS. All...
Never mind Payton Manning’s comeback story, how about Ernesto the Prediction Iguana? After a perfect 4-0 week last week, (he told you: the Patriots and the UNDER, the Panthers and the OVER), out intrepid animal king prognosticator is a blistering 11-1 in the playoffs, 5-1 in teasers. What a turnaround after a flaccid start to the season. Treading water just...
It was a perfect 4-0 weekend (2-0 in teasers) for Ernesto the Prediction Iguana,bringing the playoff totals to 7-1, 3-1 in teasers. We’ll write more about it this week, but the curtain will likely come down on Peyton Manning’s long and stellar career next week after the Patriots go into Mile High and rout the Broncos. Meanwhile two teams that are far from...
Ernesto the Prediction Iguana continued his hot hand into the playoffs, going 3-1, (1-1 in teasers). He hit with the Bengals (although they didn’t), the Packers (nobody else did:) and the OVER in the REDSKINS-packers game. His one loss was the VIKINGS-seahawks, which was well under. This week the big guns host home games, not crappy division winners with...
Another 5-1 week for Ernesto the Prediction Iguana (and a 2-1 teaser week) leave the totals going into the last week of the regular season at 64-20-2, (23-18-2 in teasers). Quite the comeback for Ernesto, who started the season almost as poorly as the Kansas City Chiefs, but righted the ship for a late-season ascension. Week 17 is always one of the most difficult...
Ernesto the Prediction Iguana continued his late season rally this weekend with a solid 5-1 showing, bringing the season totals to a solid 51-19-2 record. He hit with the Packers, Jets, Cardinals, and Giants last week, as well as an over/under call. The lone blemish was Brock Osweiler’s first loss as QB for Denver against the Raiders. This week we continue...
Barstow the Prediction Cat went a blistering 7-1 last week, making his 3-week total in relief of Ernesto the Prediction Iguana a terrific 16-3-1. The season total here at GNN is a solid 38-12-1. Ernesto returns after his three week benching. My bet is the time off did him some good: He usually starts slowly every year, then heats up come crunch time, putting up...
It was a perfect 6-0 for Barstow the cat, who filled in admirably for Ernesto the Prediction Iguana last week in making the magazine’s NFL Picks. Our first undefeated week here at GNN puts the season tally at a more-than-respectable 28-9 over all. This week, we’re gonna ride the hot hand and let Barstow have another go. He earned it, along with some sweet...
