NFL Picks for Week 15

I go out until late and get up late and I forget to do the NFL Picks. I did pick the Broncos on Thursday, so I’m wrong there. I forgot to pick last night’s Cincinnati-SF game in which I would have chosen the Bengals so I’m spared a wrong pick there. Last week was 12-4 […]

When he first began, George was an angry fighter and took out his wrath on opponents. Just look […]
