Upset of the Week: I would have gone with the Steelers over the Ravens, but Pittsburgh is a 3 point favorite at home. So, I will rely upon the Patriots to upset the Jaguars in Jacksonville. 8-4 in this category.

Mortal Lock of the Week: I'll go with my beloved Colts over the Texans. The Colts are still clinging to the #2 seed in the AFC and they surely won't let a game slip away to Houston. 9-4 in this category.

Colts Update: I'm breathing a little easier this week after the Colts' convincing win over the Bengals on Monday Night Football. It was a fun game to watch as Manning and Harrison coneected for 3 TD's, yet again showing why they are the all-time greatest QB/WR tandem in league history.--5 Colts made the Pro-Bowl, all from the offensive side of the ball: QB Peyton Manning, WR Marvin Harrison, WR Reggie Wayne, LT Tarik Glenn, and C Jeff Saturday. Kudos to them. Now if we could just have some defensive Pro-Bowlers...

Tigers Update: Starting pitcher Jeremy Bonderman has been locked up through the year 2010. He signed a 4-year $38 million contract.--April 2nd can't get here fast enough.

That's it from my end. I won't be blogging again until after Christmas. So to all fellow TV.commers out there, have a safe and merry Christmas!
