I say "we" as if I were an actual part of the process, but I will be about as helpful as a doorstop.
I'll keep you posted as events unfold. They might have wi-fi ...

Selected Week 2 Picks:
Bills (0-1) at Steelers (1-0)
The Line: Pittsburgh by 10.
My Prediction: Pittsburgh 38 - Buffalo 10

Honestly, why do we even bother letting guys like this continue to waste our precious oxygen and expel a dangerous greenhouse gas?
