It was just another night for Gus Johnson this past Saturday as he called “The most incredible victory in the history of Mixed Martial Arts.” Seth Petruzelli took down Kimbo Slice as soon as the fight started which left Gus Johnson frantically pacing around the octagon in a frenzy.
“Rocky…Rocky is here!!!!!!!!!!!!”

While watching the Miami Dolphins humiliate the San Diego Chargers yesterday, I had a stunning revelation. Fins quarterback Chad Pennington looks exactly like Michael Cera of “Superbad” and “Arrested Development” fame. Even though Pennington has a good 12 years on Cera, they both look like they’re about 14 years old.
It was fitting I make this connection on a day when Pennington continued his own Infinite Playlist of owning the San Diego Chargers. With the win, Pennington is now 4-0 in his career against the Bolts, throwing 6 touchdowns and 0 interceptions.

Standings
Ryan: 34-24-1
Sonny: 29-29-1
Rich: 28-30-1
Kevin: 28-30-1
Ryan: Colts -3 over Texans. I think a bye week is just what the doctor ordered for Indianapolis. The Colts need to establish a running game in this one. Lucky for them, the Texans are giving up about 160 yards a game on the ground. Look for Joseph Addai to finally get going here.
Rich: Colts -3 over Texans.
Sonny: Colts -3 over Texans.
Kevin: Colts -3 over Texans.
Ry: Ravens +3 over Titans. In a game where points will be at an absolute premium, I’m going to take the points. To me, it comes down to turnovers here. Will the Ravens even give Joe Flacco a chance to make a mistake. I know the Titans will let Kerry Collins air it out more, which sets up nicely for the nasty Ravens’ defense playing at home.
Ri: Titans -3 over Ravens.
S: Titans -3 over Ravens.
K: Titans -3 over Ravens.
Ry: Chargers -7 over Dolphins. The Chargers need to stop spotting their opponents 10+ points while on the road. Norv Turner’s team avoided disaster last week, coming back from a 15 point deficit against the Raiders. Now they face a motivated Miami team that’s had two weeks to prepare. The Chargers are back to .500 and don’t want to fall back under that mark, I think we see a real motivated performance here.
S: Dolphins +7 over Chargers.
Ri: Chargers -7 over Dolphins.
