Thursday Stain & Lucky 13

The annoyance of Thursday football is like a lump of undigested turkey giblets in the cold dregs of a gravy boat. Not only can no one watch it (oh, sorry to those member of the liberal elite who have the NFL network), but it also musses up our IDYFT NFL Pick'em.
I'll be making an effort to get this done earlier in the week, perhaps as way of apology for everyone having to watch Detroit get creamed and Dallas wax a patsy for the 300th Thanksgiving in a row.

Who decided that Detroit and Dallas deserve this tradition? Assholes, that's who.

Should you not get your picks in by Thursday's Jets-Bills fudgefest, have no fear, go ahead and pick the rest of the week ... but don't cheat, for I am always watching you. Good luck!

How come I didn't think of that?

Well, I'm sticking with the Washington Generals for the rest of this season.
