That’s more like it – Ernesto the Prediction Iguana went 5-1 last week, and 2-1 in teasers. That brings the season totals to 15-9 overall, 5-7 in exact teasers. He’s headed off for his annual November vacation next week, so the cats all get a chance to show their prognosticating prowess, but before Ernesto and his girl take off to some iguana...
It was another 3-3 week for Ernesto the Prediction Iguana. He hit with the Patriots, Falcons, and Bills, but the Steelers stank up the joint in Miami, while Dallas shellacked the Packers. That brings the young season totals to 6-6, but Ernesto looks to rebound this week. As always, we do teasers here. Home team in CAPS, all lines from www.vegasinsider.com GREEN LIGHT...
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...
That’s not Godzilla in that picture, it’s Ernesto the Prediction Iguana at the cashier’s window collecting his winnings. A gargantuan 8-0 week (4-0 in teasers) puts the season totals at a blistering 59-19-2 (21-17-2 in teasers). Since coming back from being benched early in the year, the Animal Kingdom’s Top Sports Prognosticator has been...
It appears we have the makings of a quarterback controversy when it comes to our football picks this season. A lackluster 4-4 week by our intrepid Ernesto the Prediction Iguana makes the season totals 42-16-1. That stat is misleading, however, as Barstow the Cat’s three-week appearance subbing in accounted for 16 of those wins, balanced against just three...
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...
See that picture? That’s what the Buccaneers and the Raiders did to Ernesto’s house this weekend. When’s the last time those two sad sacks beat playoff caliber teams in the same week? At a paltry 3-3, that’s Ernesto’s worst week in four years! It drops the season totals to a mezza-mezza 22-9. He’s benched for the next three weeks...
A 4-2 showing on a particularly tough slate of games last week for Ernesto the Prediction Iguana puts him at 9-4 to start the season. Pretty good, but we’re aiming to get better still. While – of course – we correctly picked the Cheatriots, their defense refused to let in a oh-by-the-way touchdown at the end to hit on the over. The Browns win over...
