IF IT'S THURSDAY, IT MUST BE FOOTBALL . . .

YEP . . . sure as Brett's retirement party and Brady's hairdresser there's a Thursday night matchup comin' round again ... Means the season is gettin' serious. Doesn't take a turkey gobblin' to know that a lot of strange teams you never saw comin' are in the hunt.


Well, Hustlin' Harry hunted me up to make sure I got his hunnerd% prophecy up and posted the mosted and I tell ya - the man is better in a broadcast booth than Cosell ever Mondayed.

Here's the first matchup this week ~ 

CHICAGO SPLASHIN' IN

  FROM THAT WINDY CITY TO

MIAMI'S PHIN'ISH LINE

And here's ol'Har ... leanin' and whistlin' at the goal posts, smooth as the Silver Bullet beer foam all over his big mug ... tellin' us ~ ... WAIT ... He's gonna run this one in to the booth for a review ... He's that excited and wants no challenges  ~

HUSTLIN' HARRY'S HUNNERD % PROPHECY:  The Dolphins are ailing in the QB department. Word is they'll be starting 3rd string Tyler Thigpen. Didn't Brandon Marshall audition for the job last week? Chicago did a good job limiting Adrian Petersen and Cutler is avoiding sacks and interceptions. I'm still sticking with the Fish though, hoping that containing both Ricky Williams and Ronnie Brown leaves Marshall open to combine with T.T. for some TDs.  DOLPHINS X

Heck ... I just gotta go "OH" = "Opposite Harry" ...

  

Goin' razzamatazz ... DUH BEARS X

See ya back here for the weekend rally and what else we can tell is tempting outta Sugar Sack's kitchen -- bein' mine and Har's idea to lower her concentration level if she's whoopin' up a big Sunday Come Watch Football Feast.

Hey ... These are the Absolutely Best NFL Picks ~ we'll stoop to everything.

Strategy is strategy on the line and in the red zone and when the whistle blows.

That's how it goes.
