Sportsmeat

As you all know, the greatest sport in the world is upon us. This is where your esteemed prognosticators deliver our nfl picks. Last year, we had a 54% success rate at picking division champs, a 50% success rate in picking playoff teams, a 50% success rate in picking Super Bowl participants, and an astounding 67% success rate in picking the Super Bowl champion. BT was best at picking division winners, hitting 5 of 8. Buddha led the pack with 7 of 12 playoff teams. All three 'Meaters picked the Colts to the Super Bowl, with BT and Buddha picking them to win. And finally, BT nailed the MVP choice with LT. So we kinda know what we're talking about. Without more, here are the 2007 picks:
