Tweeted Picks!

This post is coming at you twitter style! Meaning only 140 characters per pick, enjoy! I gave out two other picks through my facebook earlier, by picking Atlanta in the NFL and Louisville in college, both of which proved to be correct. So, that means that New Orleans is pretty much out of the playoff picture, and for the 46th consecutive season, a home team will not play in the Super Bowl. Then, in college, Louisville is going to the BCS, likely to the Orange or Sugar Bowls. And, looking back at last week in the world of football, Notre Dame is ending it's 24 year drought of making a trip to the title game, as it's last appearance gained their last national title, in 1988, and this year could bring a new champion, ending the SEC's reign. Don't laugh, Pat Forde of yahoo sports made a compelling argument for Notre Dame. Last week proved to be one of the worst weeks in the history of my blog, going 1-4 in college, and then I went 3-2 in the NFL, so 4-6 overall, which is a very bad sign. By the way, this tweeted picks thing, will not be a regular thing, next week should be back to previewing games the way you're accustomed to.
