Bet the Mortgage Now!!!

Rejoice! The kickoff to the 2012 NFL season is right around the corner – let's say that corner is Wednesday at 8 p.m. Eastern – so I've done what many nut ball pro football maniac fans do at this time of the year… I've made a bunch of picks that most likely will turn out dead wrong.

I'm not really impressed with my picks. They're so vanilla. So boring. I really wanted to pick the Bears to win Super Bowl XLVII, but I just don't see them beating out the Packers, whom I've picked to… ah, just read the picks below.

One more thing: you know the Patriots, whom for some reason have the easiest schedule in the league this year – for the second year in a row, if I remember correctly – will be in the playoff mixing bowl. (What?) Who's going to compete with New England in the AFC East? The Jets and their wild feline running game? Give me a break.

Oh, and you'll notice I have the Cowboys making the playoffs as a wild card. I'm not I sure I believe that to be true. That may just be 8-year-old me talking. Man this Roger Staubach jersey is really getting tight.

Here's to a cheerful new season!
