I really hope he doesn't try to hang on another year. He may still have something left on his fastball, but most are just fat pitches and his gunslinger attitude doesn't work in today's game. He threw over 50 times last night, got picked twice on bad throws(One returned for a TD), and his decision making isn't what it used to be. Not to mention he has one guy to throw to that can catch in Driver, and he's usually double covered. The Packers may have 7 wins, but it hasn't been his doing. It's time to hang em up Brett, don't let the last memories of you be interceptions run back that cost your team the game.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5056633806095572281-756801000044225501?l=adamssportshaven.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Adamhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01221655304854262348noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5056633806095572281.post-64707183781859424852006-12-21T19:54:00.000-08:002006-12-21T21:03:38.956-08:00I love Christmas time. It means that the College Bowl Season is upon us! Here are my picks for the games through Christmas. I'll post the other games over the weekend. Merry Christmas!<br /><br />New Orleans Bowl 12/22<br /><b>Troy (+4 1/2) </b> over Rice<br />This should be a close game, Rice's option game will control the tempo but Troy will stay in the game due to a subpar Rice defense and a decent QB in <span class="bi"></span>Omar Haugabook.<br /><i>Rice 23 Troy 20</i><br /><br />Papajohns.com Bowl 12/23<br /><b>South Florida (-4 1/2)</b> over East Carolina<br />Matt Grothe's legs will give South Florida the edge in this one along with alot of experience from a big Big East win over West Virginia this year.<br /><i>South Florida 27 East Carolina 21</i><br /><br />New Mexico Bowl 12/23<br /><b>San Jose St (+3 1/2)</b> over New Mexico<br />Home field advantage won't help here, San Jose St is just the better team. With no real passing game New Mexico will have a tough time running against the San Jose St defense, who hung in with a tough Boise St team this year.<br /><i>San Jose St 23 New Mexico 17</i><br /><br />Armed Forces Bowl 12/23<br /><b>Utah (-1)</b> over Tulsa<br />Expect a shootout with the Utes pulling it out at the end.<br /><i>Utah 37 Tulsa 31</i><br /><br />Hawaii Bowl 12/24<br /><b>Hawaii (-7)</b> over Arizona St<br />Colt Brennan is a stud, and Hawaii doesn't let up when they're winning. Take the over also.<br /><i>Hawaii 52 Arizona St 27</i><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5056633806095572281-6470718378185942485?l=adamssportshaven.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Adamhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01221655304854262348noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5056633806095572281.post-57984757189540262232006-12-21T19:50:00.000-08:002006-12-21T19:54:04.257-08:00Week 16 has a lot of tough matchups with playoff implications.
