Late MNF picks…
Forgive us for the tardy picking:
B: Jets
R: Jets
The Dog: Dolphins
Little M: Jets 20, Dolphins 16
Ditka: Dolphins
And we’re only 5 minutes in….Not bad.
We speak Sanchez!
So he wants to go to South America or Mexico City to learn his mother tongue (hmmm, tongue). But whatevs, he may not speak Spanish, yet, but we speak Sanchez. Go Jets! J-E-T-S! JETS! JETS! JETS!
It’s Monday Night! Come on over to Twitter to join us pitying Chadwick, and loving Mark Sanchez.
This is just a taste of the awesome insight you can expect to find via @NFLBoyfriend.
Come get more!
FIMB MNF Game Pick Genius Tally
Because we were that devastated by the Jets loss (Ravens, too) that we couldn’t post before now:
Little M: 4
ESPN Expert: 4 (we went with Hoge this week)
FIMB R.: 3
FIMB B.: 1
Dog: 0
When you find yourself down 21-0 on the road—
And then we stopped reading. That’s quite enough from you, Phillip Rivers.
Week 4: One month in!!
RAVENS! RAVENS! RAVENS! And I look forward to this man serving the Patriots a slice of humble pie. Foxboro is not an easy place to win, but I definitely have my eye on this burgeoning Baltimore dynasty. And I am crushing on Harbaugh. He’s kind of hot, no?
Also picking the Giants, the Jets over the Saints (and this is by far the most fraught in terms of nerves - the Rookie wunderkind vs. the NFL’s best quarterback), and finally, waving my internal terrible towel for the Steelers at home tonight!
Tomorrow night, I look forward to the Packers slapping Favre around, Please let that be the case. —B.
I’ll be in Foxboro on Sunday as a color commentator for the SportsUSA Radio Network and I can’t wait to see the best team in football play in person. And I’m not talking about the Patriots.
— SI’s Ross Tucker. Whom we now love. Also? We wish we were going to be in Foxboro as color commentators. We have a lot of color to share when it comes to the Pats. Go, Ray Lewis!

I nominate Stylez G. White for best NFL name change of ‘08
Greg White doesn’t have the high profile of Bengals receiver Chad Ocho Cinco, formerly known as Chad Johnson. But I do think he’s pulled off the best name change of this NFL season.
Buccaneers opponents will no longer be blocking Greg White. They will be blocking Stylez G. White. He made it official in court today.
And for what reason? Because he liked the character Stiles from “Teen Wolf”. From The Bucs Report:
White said he picked his new name from a character in the 1985 movie “Teen Wolf,’’ starring Michael J. Fox.
“That was his best friend’s name,’’ White said. “I always liked that name. It’s not that I don’t like Greg White.’’
In the movie, Fox’s friend is named Rupert “Stiles’’ Stilinski. White changed the spelling and adopted the name as his own.
That’s fantastic. Normally I’d question the self-esteem of a guy who changes his name to that of a sidekick in a movie, but I’ll make an exception if it’s Stiles. He’s an ’80s icon. Not as much as the Teen Wolf himself, but you can’t really name yourself Teen Wolf, can you?
If he could find a way to be introduced at home games, and ride into the stadium on top of a van, he would be my hero.
