Initial Smoke

Fall is here!

The Fall is arguably the greatest season for American sports. College & Pro Football are fresh, basketball nears, and baseball is coming down to the wire. For the Pope, this means that ND Football is in full swing (well, kinda), the Cardinals are pushing for the MLB Playoffs, the Titans just got started with a big win, and the Grizzlies start training camp in a few weeks. My goal is to post my thoughts and picks, but to keep things funny and in perspective. Please email me and post comments with your thoughts.

As reported at JCSPN.com, Notre Dame football is off to a helluva start. There is so much to say that I'm just going to wait for Sunday and my post game comments after the Michigan game. We are 0-2 and heading to Ann Arbor to face another 0-2 team - my only prediction is that one team will be 1-2 and the other will be 0-3 by Saturday evening. The Irish get 7.5pts on the line, but I'm not about to proclaim that game a "Holy Wager" (Check back Thursday afternoons for each week's "Holy Wagers", my betting picks of the week from college and pros).

Kudos to whoever created JCSPN.com - thats hilarious. At least that ND Hater website is entertaining. Remember to check back for the Pope's regular slate of weekly blog entries:
  • Divine Diatribes (Post-game thoughts, on Sundays/Mondays)
  • Heretic & Saint of the Week (Best & Worst Sports Figures of the week, on Tuesdays)
  • Holy Wagers of the Week (Best Sports Betting Picks of College & Pro, on Thursdays)

And (hopefully) plenty of posts in between. Thanks for stopping by!
