After doing my first ever mock draft(s) back in 2014 and then trying again the following season I took last year off. I was recovering from surgery and just had too much occupying my mind. But we’re back baby!! I’m doing something a little different this time, a decision that is contrary to what typically… Read More 2017 NFL Mock Draft
I know I said I wasn’t going to watch The Super Bowl, but I did…kind of. The Owl called me about a half hour before kickoff and we talked until midway thru the 4th quarter. The game was on but my TV was muted. However, thanks to modern technology I was able to go back… Read More Winning & Musing…..A Post-Super Bowl Wrap-Up
The Super Bowl is this Sunday but your humble Potentate of Profundity won’t be watching. I think it might be the first time in 42+ years on the planet that I haven’t bought into the hype. The truth is that my interests have shifted a bit in the past couple of years and I find… Read More Winning & Musing…..Volume 1.15
Okay I just have to vent…again. This college football playoff thing is a complete joke. I never in a million years thought something could be worse than the BCS, but the current system has somehow managed to make the BCS look logical & fair. As an alumnus of Marshall University and a longtime fan of… Read More 2014 Pigskin Picks of Profundity…..Week 13

I am by no means an “expert” who pores over tape or scouting reports like a Mel Kiper Jr. or Mike Mayock. I’m not an “insider” with a plethora of contacts… Read More My First Ever NFL Mock Draft (2014)

I have been watching a lot of pre-season games A) because that’s just how I roll and B) because the NFL Network may… Read More 2013 NFL Preview & Prognostications
Today we bid a fond farewell to the football season and touch on a couple of other subjects. Congratulations…I suppose…to the Baltimore Ravens, who just won one of the more memorable Super Bowls in recent memory. It wasn’t the result I would have preferred for a variety of reasons, but atleast it was… Read More Winning & Musing…..Volume 4.13
Word on the street is that there is some sort of big football game taking place in New Orleans in a few days. Let’s talk about that. A quick trip back to last fall in the ol’ DeLorean reveals that my NFL prognostications were…as usual…hit & miss. The Good – I predicted… Read More Winning & Musing…..The Super Bowl Edition
Happy Holidays citizens of The Manoverse!! Alas, today I come not to praise our most wonderful time of the year, but to express a bit of frustration. Yesterday we celebrated that most American of holidays…Thanksgiving. We’ll look at the holiday itself a little closer this time next year because I am currently reading a… Read More Thanksgiving, Black Friday, & The Christmas Creep
