Glazer: Scribe Lets Loose Weekend Football Picks

overreactions-wk1-20141Ah, the Kansas City Chiefs

They’re a very bad team in a sea of bad teams.

However, the Chiefs will win a few games due to other” lock down teams” sucking, like this week’s New England Patriots. Because happily hue Patriots are just as bad as KC – its a toss up.

The Chiefs could win this one, but I think they lose a close game.

Patriots QB Tom Brady is starting to look old, sadly.

mizzou_crop_northWell, our “star” team Missouri blew any chance of having a really exciting season by losing to lowly Indiana.

Thanks, Tigers.

They’ll still go bowling but not at the level everyone had hoped.

K-State has a nice team, but nothing to brag about.

KU still stinks, of course.

And that’s the news, folks.

Have a fun weekend watching football and looking forward to a baseball playoff in KC, that would be nice.

    again his phony math is exposed…preferring to make up his own rules in
    picking teams instead of following the real rules….with his phony teases
    he keeps telling the public he’s 70% but he’s maybe at 35-40% and never higher.
    This must stop. we are watching your picks andbased on casino rules
    you will be proven wrong again.
    Folks …this guy is like Houdini. He picks teams then uses his own “special
    grading” system to make it seem he’s better the Rothstein.
    but that’s wrong.
    he forgets the casinos give the point spread move and in return the
    bettor must win both games. He probably goes to Delmar and tries
    to collect when his 3 horses come in 1-2-9….or he says to the teller
    “pay me for my picks coming in first and second.
    Glaze…we’re counting..and your numbers are worse than my
    grandma could pick …and she’s dead.
    So you bamboozled these readers and the general public into thinking
    you were really good at picking teams.
    one week forget the tease…lets see how really good you are…because
    the handicappers refer to you in vegas as a “real sucker”:…
    hope restaurant is doing well…haven’t had a chance to come by but
    will be by to taste the dr. pepper ribs. My friend from tuperlo wants to
    know when you add MOUNTAIN DEW RIBS TO THE MENU…and bring
    in the grand ole opry comics for a week.
    good luck with the business. Thank god you didn’t become a pro gambler…
    will be by to get some bread and water like the rest of the mooches from
    joco.
    have a great weekend….ets see if you can dig yourself out of the hole
    you’re in…this is the fourth week…four more to make your money…
    then the books figure out the numbers and teams…
    better hit it this week cause time is running out.
    your friend

    “Ah”

    – prelude to a Chiefs game… http://www.shockwave-sound.com/sound-effects/fart-sounds/Long%20fart%20WAV.wav

    “the Kansas City Chiefs…”

    – [ cymbal crash! ] Killing fandom silently/yearly, since 1970…

    “The Chiefs could win this one, but I think they lose a close game.”

    – what has passed for professional football in KC since the days rotary phones with pulse dial, computers the size Imelda Marcos shoe closet and hundred-thousand $ ‘team’ payrolls in lieu million plu$ individual players same today. Old habits being hard to break, breaking wind if not collecting wins…

    PREDICTION

    ~ Reality lifts its leg and rears its ugly fundament again ~ NE 27 @KC 13

    • Lance the Intern says:

      Fail.

    • Kerouac says:

      A blind squirrel found an acorn in KC last night & in the process 1-15 became 2-14. Ugly record theirs a given, the other ugliest thing on Monday Night was: officials their striped ineptitude/home cooking, and, the garish accoutrements worn by a wardrobe-challenged outfit, KC, vying. The pick here: worst uni’s in the history of football coming in second to even worse officiating. Nod the old John Housman ‘Smith Barney’ commercial, the Chiefs didn’t do things the old fashioned way (earn it), they were’ given it’.

      As for the game, Swiss Chiefs avoiding yet another loss wasn’t the story, rather was the Patriots Tom Brady being caught by age. Time waits for no QB or team (nod the Chiefs nigh on half a century flailing.) The evidence of Tom’s demise was clear when the young NE QB Garoppolo (who should replace Brady sooner than later) methodically mutilated KC when he came in. A sooner entrance his and 2-14 would still be 1-15, Chiefs.

      Game highlights: only two plays either team worthy of superlative descript – both courtesy the Patriots. A beautiful long TD pass Brady to LaFell, and an even better one caught by Gronkowski, who single-handedly (bodily) carried about half KC’s defense with him into the end zone. Not only the best TE on the field he, but the best player in last night’s game.

      Next week, reality once again informs the Chiefs they have no leg to stand on:

      @SF45
      KC 10

      Keep reading Kerouac… He knows you will.

      • Jim a.k.a. BWH says:

        Any amount of money, K-Man, that the Chiefs don’t go 2-14. Any. Amount. Money, meet mouth.

        Interesting you “justify” the game score by hanging the age-tag on Brady. Pretty sure the 41 points got hung on the Patriots #2 rated defense. Did I miss Tom Terrific playing linebacker.

        Let’s review your previous picks:
        Denver 51
        Chiefs 13

        Miami 27
        Chiefs 13

        Patriots 27
        Chiefs 13

        Quite the skilled prognosticator. Best stick to your backwards prose and third person references because your affinity for accurately predicting the outcome of sporting events is………ummmm……..limited.

        • Kerouac says:

          Like the Swallows Capistrano, Pavlov’s dog and gluttons for punishment otherwise, return they ‘gain and again… color Kerouac ‘not surprised’.
          ~

          “Any amount of money, K-Man”

          – such angst their desperation try convince unimpressed that flotsam and jetsam (Chiefs, by any other) is sterling silver. Only in Kansas City, an town football favor forgot nigh on half a century ago, Cubs fandom by any other.

          Here, team & their gullible hyperventilate what for them must suffice as Superbowl: stage marked Monday Night Football (ditto a Thursday, or a Sunday, same – close as they’ll ever get, ‘abandon hope all ye who enter here’ the price of a ticket to disappointment, Arrowhead, national audience as Kerouac remains unconvinced, otherwise.

          “Did I miss Tom Terrific playing linebacker.”

          – Tom (the formerly) Terrific but now philanthropist threw int’s to an grateful D like bouquets the adoring, moving pocket with all the aplomb late-career Unitas same, SD. Brady is shot, – he the reason alone NE did not prevail – Garoppolo affirming via his mastery the Chiefs. KC was very fortunate indeed he entered late, for, he entered as a rookie and finished as Lou Gehrig replacing Wally Pipp. A new star was born, for which KC will serve as reference point when the ‘where it all began’ look back a great career Garoppolo appends.

          Let’s review your previous picks:
          Denver 51
          Chiefs 13

          – two talent-bereft QBs MIA & NE once again have local yokels convinced (just as they were 9 – 0 2013 vs a slew backup level QBs same) “we are right back in this thing.”

          The Titans – yup, those ones – demolish KC, the Broncos dominate from start to finish/Chiefs never in the game, and “yeah buts”, “if onlys” and ‘we prefer to smoke the close but no cigar brand’ here in Kansas City proliferate once more; like lambs to the slaughter.

          KC Chiefs ~ born 1963, died 1970 ~ R.I.P.

          • Natalie says:

            K-man, baby, why so jaded?
            Have the boys all grown up
            And their beauty faded?

          • Kerouac says:

            Such is the lot a Kansas City fan… since Chiefs incarnation ’63 & Athletics afore that, Kerouac.

            Was a time, days yore, reality unacknowledged, disappointment mere acquaintance rather than uninvited guest commandeers your heart (nod loser Chiefs/Royals), cultivated hope annually.
            Until one day realize, in answer question posed by Peggy Lee, “is that all there is”?

            1970

            1985

            That’s all there is, all may ever be. For evidence, see Cubs (1908) & Bengals/Falcons (NEVER)

            If Al Einstein is to be believed, insanity is a Chief / Royal. Live, learn and die no more, a thousand deaths and days same since. In lieu said, rest the sporting world passes you by, Championship (or multiples even, Raiders/Broncos) instead ‘if we make it to post season’, expansion teams as well Marlins/Diamondback baseball have left Kansas City in the proverbial dust.

            You are a Chiefs/Royals fan, your lament, losers: ‘if only’, ‘yeah but’ and ‘coulda, shoulda, woulda’, salve (a .99 cent value marked up to $5.99)
            ~

            No longer among the uninitiated, this venue as others rife an proliferate rose-colored optimism and chimerical spew, a voice dialecticism ‘must’ reign… Kerouac. As spake ‘The Prisoner’, “I am not a number – I am a free (to critique) man!”

            ‘Wait till next year’ Kansas City, ad nauseam.

  3. JB says:

    Yet nobody cares now if all these teams lose because the Royals clinched a wild card spot and ended a playoff drought of 29 years.

  4. Nelly says:

    CG be a man and post your terrible record this year.

  5. harley says:

    I thinks mr. glaze better give up football picks and start playing Chinese checkers.
    He’s sinking.
    Hearne…bring in your daughters…give them a dart board and darts and they’ll
    be better at picking winners than glaze and his “all knowing” b.s.
    glaze…please stay away from mu games
    your teases are a huge joke!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and I proved it.

  6. CG says:

    Well WOOOHH NELLY. It is a bad start no question. 7-13 now with one push…I think all the handicappers are having a rough time now. College and pro have few dominant teams and those who win often don’t cover even the teases, like Wisconsin yesterday, a win but no cover…its tough out there…due to the harsh enforcement of rules and maybe more parody. Look at Florida State our number one team, issues. No excuse…lets see if things level out. Hey its picking for betting. My worst start in four years, but I have to think all the guys who do what I do are slumping now. Still poor start.

    • Lance the Intern says:

      Glazer – I believe the word you’re looking for is “parity”…. Good call on Charlie Weis, who was fired this weekend.

  7. germy the geek says:

    impressive job this week

  8. CG says:

    8-14. It’s a crazy year out there. Picking teams like Atlanta to win over a wounded average Vikes team with a rookie qb…well that seemed likely. But upset. Texas A & M was a big favorite as well as Wisconsin. When you tease you have to pick all four winners like in my pro picks. I had three of four but one loser takes you down. Happens. Still 8-14 horrid start for me. We will keep on going next week and see if we can figure out any consistent teams that can win. The pros now have but 2 undefeated teams in just four weeks. Wow. Eagles fell.

    I think the Colts are coming on as a true AFC champion contender with Bengals and Broncos. NFC is a mess. Everyone has issues and losses. Seahawks still look best, Eagles need to shore up their D, Cowboys looking good for once and the rest is up in the air. Oh yeah Arizona is still 3-0. IF you believe in them with a backup quarterback, hey in this league, this year, who can tell.

    • KCMonarch says:

      Vegas won’t allow teases on every game. Many of the games you have picked would never be allowed in a tease.

      The moral to this story sports fans is that the average schmo is going to lose twice as many bets as he wins even when he makes up his own betting lines. And anyone who tells you they hit 70% is either delusional, lying, or both.

      • harley says:

        its the fuzzy math…I’ve talked about itt before…and it
        is phony.
        Monarch…how do they pick the games for teases?
        didn’t know that information.
        thanks.

  9. Guy Who Says What Others Think says:

    Mizzou’s loss to IU was brutal, but with the win this week at SC, everything is still on the table for them. The SEC East is up for grabs now that SC has been eliminated for all intents and purposes. Beat Georgia at home on Oct. 11 and things start to get real interesting.

    KU fires Weis…well no sh*t. Anyone with any football sense at all knew that was a disaster hire from the jump. How Zenger still has a job is beyond me. KU basketball is a well oiled machine running on it’s own. His job is to fix KU football. To this point, he’s been an abject failure.

  10. Nelly says:

    CG I will admit to some schadenfreude here. Very entertaining watching a hopeless gambler try and dig out of a hole. Not going to happen. Your contention that this is the year it finally got tough to pick winners is ludicrous. Vegas was built bc of guys like you.
