(The Plaxico Burress Story.)

 The New York Football Giants went 11-1 today in a convincing win against the Washington Redskins. The Giants won the division showdown without star receiver Plaxico Burress as he was home recovering from a self-inflicted gunshot wound to the thigh.

It’s been a weird year, especially for sports. The Boston Celtics finally picked themselves up from the bootstraps to win a championship. Neither the Red Sox nor the Yankees amounted to anything more than a bunch of overpaid whiners. They are even tearing down Yankee Stadium.

It's halfway through the season and I am finally starting my predictions. I am open to some challenges if anyone is interested.

Oakland @ Baltimore - Baltimore  (Joe Flacco throws for 2 TD's and rushes for 1 more.)

early in the season, many experts are predicting this game could be a Super Bowl preview.  The New York Giants (5-1, 1-0)) will invade Heinz field on Sunday looking to hand the Pittsburgh Steelers (5-1, 3-0), not only its second loss of the season, but its second loss to an NFC East team.

The NFL is completely lop-sided this year.  The NFC East is undoubtedly the best division in football, with 3 (maybe 4) potential Super Bowl contenders.  Fortunately for the rest of the league, most of the teams regardless of their record at this point could potentially earn a playoff berth by winning their division.  If the playoffs were to end today you would have NY Giants, Chicago, Carolina, Arizona, Washington, and Dallas in the NFC, and Buffalo, Pittsburgh, Tennessee, Denver, New England and one from (NY Jets, Miami, Baltimore, and Indianapolis).  Can the NFC East continue to dominate the NFL?  Can New England keep winning with Matt Cassel?  Who walks out of Indy 3-2?  Lots to look forward to this weekend in the NFL.

With the MLB playoffs set to begin, there is a subtle difference in the air compared to start of any other postseason. In the NHL, fans can potentially look forward to a great Canadians/Bruins series that is not only exciting, but has a historical kick to it. Likewise basketball fans always have the chance to see if the Suns can finally get past the Spurs and football fans love seeing the rivalry of the Eagles Vs the City of Philadelphia when the Eagles so much as get tackled for a loss.

I have never claimed to be an expert when it comes to predicting outcomes of football games, although last year I nearly predicted the exact final score of the Super Bowl while hitting on seven of my nine prop bets. (My prediction was 26-17, the final was 29-17.) For whatever reason I had a very good feel for that game. This year's Super Bowl, however, remains a mystery to me. Part of the reason I am having trouble getting a good feel for this game is that I am a bitter Jets fan and I can't stand either team. I'm finding it difficult to put my personal feelings aside and look at the game objectively. I think right now I am as close to objectivity as I am going to get, and with that being said, here is my official Super Bowl XLII prediction.
