Football Picks Sept 28-29

I didn't get around to this in time this week so I'm only gonna be able to pick NFL games.


NFL Week 4:

Sunday:
Green Bay at Tampa Bay
Atlanta at Carolina
Buffalo at St. Louis

Sunday Night:
Philadelphia at Chicago

Monday:
Baltimore at Pittsburgh


(*UPDATE*)
After the day games I'm 0-3. Absolutely abysmal! Even if the Eagles and Steelers both win, I'll still finish the week with a losing record for the first time this season. Maybe if I'd gotten to this in time to pick a few college games things would be different... then again, 4 of the Top 10 teams lost this week so there's no guarantee.

(*UPDATE*)
Pittsburg won so I'm not completely off this week, but I've got a lot of ground to make up next week.

Clinical Assassin Cover



This is a copy of the cover I came up with for Clinical Assassin. It took me forever to do because my skills aren't even close to J.C.'s level. Feel free to let me know what you think.

Football Picks Sept 20-22 Finals

I did terrible this week finishing at 7-6. The one bright spot is that I calle the NC State win over ECU. Hopefully I'll do better next week... lets leave it at that.

'Untelevised' #133



The power went out yesterday while I was working on this and by the time it came back on it was after 1:00am. The only thing I had left to do was scan & letter it so I skipped the bubbles (box) 

It's up now and everything is fine!

Football Picks Sept 11-15 Finals

Well after going 6-0 in my college picks, the NFL picks completely ruined my record. 3 of those games were won or lost by less than a touchdown though, so it could've easily been a completely different picture.


My final score for the week is 7-4 which brings me to 12-7 on the year.

Football Picks Sept 11-15 (Update 2)

I was a perfect 6 for 6 in my college picks this week. It almost seems like I made the obvious picks in obvious lopsided contests when you look at the final scores of the UNC - Rutgers game, OSU - USC game and the Mich - ND game but if anybody says they predicted a blowout in either of those games they're probably lying. 


On the other hand, the other 3 games I picked were won by just one score, and two of those were by just a field goal.

This puts me at 11-3 on the year but I'm gonna wait for the NFL picks before I update the "scoreboard" in the right sidebar. More than likely I'm gonna miss a few of those (but hopefully not!) because U just know a little more about NCAA than I do about the NFL. And let's be honest... the NCAA is by far more predictable than the NFL. I Mean how often do you have to pick a game like OSU vs USC?

Football Picks Sept 11-15 (Update 1)

UNC beat the shit out of Rutgers so I've got one right pick already. Looking back this was an easier pick than should've been allowed, but I'm not gonna take it away now :)

My CafePress Shop

Clinical Assassin


I've opened a "shop" at CafePress to sell some stuff based on my webcomics. There are a few t-shirts with the 'Untelevised' logo up for sale now. You can go there by clicking the logo above.

I'll hopefully get some 'Clinical Assassin' stuff up soon and I'm thinking about making some political t-shirts, not sure what I wanna do about that yet.

If anybody has any suggestions or requests let me know.

Football Picks Sept 11-15

This week is a little longer because I'm picking the Thursday Night NCAA game. I'm also picking a lot more games this week than last because there's just more to pick from. Last week in the NCAA there were a lot of easy games where all the good teams scheduled soft matchups for the first few games of the season, where this week we get to see a few more interesting games.


NCAA Week 3:

Thursday:
North Carolina at Rutgers

Friday:
#13 Kansas at #19 South Florida

Saturday:
#2 Georgia at South Carolina
Michigan at Notre Dame
#10 Wisconsin at #21 Fresno State
#5 Ohio State at #1 USC


NFL Week 2:

Sunday:
New Orleans at Washington
Atlanta at Tampa Bay
New England at NY Jets
San Diego at Denver

Monday:
Philadelphia at Dallas


I'm a little reluctant to pick the Jets over the Patriots but I think the Jets, and also the Falcons, are my "upset" picks. You could easily say picking Philly over the Cowboys is an upset pick from all the predictions that the Cowboys are going to the Super Bowl this year but after Philly's performance last week I've gotta say I think they're back to the calibur team they were when they went to 3 straight NCF Championships.

I know that's contradictory to my own NFC pick (I chose the Cowboys to win the conference) but I was really impressed with last week's game.

Football Picks Sept 6-8 Final Score

I'm not happy with my results. 5-3 isn't bad but it's not great either. The damn Colts loss was a fluke but the Vikings/Packers game was another story.

I still don't think Arron Rodgers is gonna be any good this season but he did have a good game last night.

I said in the original post for this week's picks that I might have been giving the Raiders too much credit with the score I gave them... that's an understatement. They were flat out awful! And Eddie Royal (From Virginia Tech) had a great debut game for the Broncos!

I think as the season goes on I'll have a clearer picture of what's going on and my scores each week will be a little better.

New Layout For My Webcomics

I've made some changes to the layout of my webcomics. Mostly to Untelevised and also a few changes to Clinical Assassin

I'm still looking into making a few more "adjustments" later but I like it for now.

Clinical Assassin Update

I've just about finished inking the cover for Clinical Assassin. Hopefully by tomorrow I'll have it scanned and will be able to start woking on the colors.


I wish I were faster but I'm just not there yet.

Football Picks Sept 6-8 (Update 1)

So far I'm 4-1. Not that I'm bragging... it's just I'm bragging.


The only game I've gotten wrong so far was the Georgia Tech - Boston College game, which is ironically the game with the closest final score to any of the scores I predicted (and also backwards)

Football Picks Sept 6-8

I'm gonna start doing weekly picks for some of my favorite college and NFL football games each week. I wanted to do this last week but didn't get around to it, but I'll admit that I would've picked both Virginia Tech and Clemson to win... and they both lost.

First off:
SEC - Georgia
Big 12 - Oklahoma
Big East - West Virginia
Big 10 - Ohio State
PAC 10 - USC

National Champions - USC

I'm a little reluctant to pick USC over Georgia.

NCAA Week 2:
Western Carolina 14 - Florida State 38
Miami 17 - Florida 24
Georgia Tech 14 - Boston College 17

NFL:

Super Bowl Champions - Indianapolis Colts

NFL Week 1:
Tampa Bay 10 - New Orleans 23
Jacksonville 17 - Tennessee 25
Chicago 7 - Indianapolis 28

(Monday Night Games)
Minnesota 27 - Green Bay 10
Denver 21 - Oakland 16

Not too many exciting games in college football this week... the Miami/Florida game looks like the most exciting. Just for the record - I'm rooting for Miami in that one... I just don't think they can do it.

I tried to pick the NFL games I thought would be the best games, but again, there aren't many. The plus side here is that both Monday Night games should be interesting. I may be giving Oakland way more credit than they deserve, we'll have to wait and see.

In More Important News...

I was working on the cover for the 'Clinical Assassin' print version (28 pgs) this morning when I accidentally spilt water on it... (insert sad face here)

It wasn't a lot and the pencils aren't ruined so I may be able to fix it once I get it inked and scanned onto my computer.

Sarah Palin Can Talk Smack...

...but can she be Vice President? 


I'm anxious to see what the national reaction to Palin's convention speech will be. Most of the experts I've read or heard say "wait a week or two." The Gallop Daily Tracking Poll is usually (and ironically) a day or so behind so we can't look at that yet.

I was reading a lot of comments on several news sites after the speech and it looked like about a 65-35 split with more people having a negative opinion of Palin. I'm not that surprised by that considering she didn't really tell us where she stands on anything as much as she insulted and mocked the Democratic Ticket.

It's odd the GOP would go so far out of their way to slam the "East Coast Liberal Media" when that same media gave Palin such glowing reviews including the phrase "a star is born" being uttered in almost perfect unison immediately after the speech ended.
