Key kids...
Holy Crap! KC 0-2 out of the gate, as I predicted.
And Buffalod didn't need 61/2 to beat the spread against the Raiders.
There are two games where I made some easy money.
It made up for a poor set of morning games, but my afternoon picks were dead on balls accurate.
Many thanks to the Chargers for scoring a bunch of points and still losing to the Jets.
Dallas screwed me with a measly 17.
I need Philly to score about 55 points tonight for me to compete in the 3-team point parlee.
I never thought I'd say this, but go Eagles.
Wes, Wes, Wes - when will you realize I have the Chiefs pegged? I won't pick them against a halfway decent team until they can stop the run. I said the same thing about my Jets, and they can stop the run now. That's why they're 2-0.
Gotham Green - woo-hoo!

NFL picks, week 2 & crazy photos
Hey kids,
The Turzman here with my NFL picks for week 2.
But first, I have to share these photos that I found at eBaumsworld.com with you...
http://www.ebaumsworld.com/whylatework.html
This is crazy.
So here are my football picks and as usual, first team listed is my pick to win, straight up; no point spread factored in. But the asterisk (*) next to a pick means I think the game will be close and the spread should be considered. Home team is in CAPS...Here goes.
Carolina over KANSAS CITY *
Denver over JACKSONVILLE
TENNESSEE over Indianapolis *
NEW ORLEANS over San Francisco
Washington over NEW YORK GIANTS
OAKLAND over Buffalo *
New England over ARIZONA *
CINCINNATI over Miami
GREEN BAY over Chicago
Houston over DETROIT *
BALTIMORE over Pittsburgh *
St. Louis over ATLANTA *
Seattle over TAMPA BAY
DALLAS over Cleveland *
New York Jets over SAN DIEGO*
Monday night:
PHILADELPHIA over Minnesota *
Tie breaker combined score: 64
Any thoughts?- Call my PhanFone at 909 - 881 - 3654 or shoot me an e-mail:

Good luck handicappers, and don't take any shit from anybody.

Live Great White in captivity!!
Hey kids...
The Turzman here with some very exciting news. The Monterey Bay Aquarium up in NoCal has a live, four foot long female great white shark on display and seems to be doing well.
Link to Monterey Bay Aquarium website 411 on the shark:
http://www.montereybayaquarium.org/news/Default.asp?bhcp=1
The aquarium also has live webcams in the shark tank, viewable between 7 am and 7 pm.
At other times, they show pre-recorded footage from the shark tank--awesome!!!
http://www.montereybayaquarium.org/efc/efc_smm/smm_cam.asp?bhcp=1
To see some videos of the great white in its new home, goto
http://www.montereybayaquarium.org/cr/whiteshark.asp
It will be intersting to see how long this young girl can survive. Previously, the longest stint a great white has managed in a fish tank is 16 days.
In other news, tonight I watched the Coyote Women's volleyball team sweep the Antelopes of Grand Canyon University, 3-nil.
I talked to head coach Kim Cherniss before the match and she informed me that Jessica Nelthorpe would not suit up tonight due to a strained hamstring that was aggravated last night against UC San Diego. (Press release on CSUSB vs. UCSD:
http://athletics.csusb.edu/media0405/40915volleyball.htm ).
I'd like to offer my humblest apologies to Ms. Nelthorpe for being cross in an earlier post, saying she "had nothing" against the Tritons. She hurt herself and played through the pain. Her diligence is a tribute to the CSUSB v-ball program and is a reflection of the work ethic installed into these warriors by coach Cherniss and assistant coach Danny Scott. The good news is Coach Cherniss expects this game to be the only one Nelthorpe will miss, get well soon, number seven!
I've always wondered what it tasted like--eating crow, I feel surprisingly relieved!
Come back here later this week for my NFL week 2 picks. I want some challenges, people!
If I'm successful againt my friends and listeners, I'll try my luck at the local Indian Casino and Bingo Parlor.
I'll also have updates on Coyote soccer & cross-country later this week.
Bye kids, and don't take any shit from anybody!

Lady "Yotes fall to UC San Diego
Hey kids,
The Turzman here with an update on Coyote Volleyball.
Last night in a game that should've been broadcast over Coyote Radio but wasn't (see yesterday's post--rant section), the ladies dropped a heartbreaker to the UC San Diego Tritons (ranked #2 in the nation), 3-1.
It seemed the 'yotes were flat, Jessica Nelthorpe had nothing (turns out she was playing on a bum leg), Amy Long was hitting the ball all over the arena except in-bounds, and the defense is still a little shakey.
Brie Harris, the 'yote's big gun was held at bay. Her kill attempts were up there, but her percentage was low, the Tritons did their homework and were ready for her.
Kathleen Price (who goes by "Kat" now, for whatever reason) was the only consistent factor for the yotes in the middle, being the most efficient attacker with a .515 kill percentage. But with only 19 kills over the four games, just wasn't enough.
On a personal note, I fell in love with Triton MB Kendra Canape (#10) over the course of the evening. She's beautiful and a firecracker on the court. What I wouldn't give to take her to dinner, dancing and a movie.
Oh well, I'll get over it. I always do.
Check this site before this weekend to catch my picks for NFL week 2. Week 1 I was 9-7 straight up but only 8-8 against the spread. Nobody does good week 1 though, 8 wins would have earned 2nd or 3rd place in your basic office pool. I predict at least 10 wins this weekend.
Send me your picks and we can gamble (just keep it hush-hush).
mike@turzman.com
or call me at 909-881-3654.
If there's anybody reading this that knows UC San Diego Triton MB Kendra Canape, tell her she's got a fan in The Turzman.
That's all for now, I'm gonna go find a nice quiet corner and cry for a while.
