2008 FREE NFL PICKS WEEK 3
 The Spawn of Jiggy
Before I begin, let me give gigantic, lesbian props to AC for filling in for me whilst I was laboring away in labor and delivery. AC gave you the truth, the love and the magic that he brings every week and for that, we are all very thankful.
This week was a week filled with power and wonder for me.
The bards and poets from days gone by have always extolled first times. They sing of first loves, they pen sonnets about first kisses, they (and rightfully so) conjure and reconjure the loss of virginity.
I understand and feel every one of their words, the pull of their meter, the pang of their rhymes. For last week was one such week for me.
The first 4-0 week of the season. It is always such a blessing from nature and heaven. When the football bounces just right for you (or you were smart enough to bet with Jiggy and the ball bounced for him) you become surrounded with existential euphoria.
 Because of the winnings, that metaphorical euphoria is quickly replaced by actual euphoria. (What with the purchase of earthly pleasures with one’s loot.) I like to start off with a very expensive steak dinner, rare and bloody. I always believe that a Northern California wine is the vin juste for such occasions. European wines are for pussies – and not the kind we like, but rather the kind that we dislike. These meals are followed by less epicurean delights and more satyresque ones. Think two redheads and blonde kicker.
The problem is winning is like a drug. The first 4-0 week of the season feels orgiastic. Then the rest of the season we chase the sunset trying to recreate that one feeling. It is hard. Sure, we will have many more weeks like this. We’ll bet more and make more. We’ll enjoy more deeply – but remember readers. There is nothing like the first time.
So I hope you all celebrated heartily. And to the readers that sent in photos of their ‘celebratory friends,’ thank you. If they weren’t so homely, we would have posted them.
Now, let’s get back to work.
JIGGY'S FREE NFL PICKS
The Land of Cleaves (Cle) @ The Land of Ray Ray (Bal) – The Dogs +2.5
Cleveland has played two tough games, Dallas (maybe the class of the NFC – heck, maybe the class of the NFL) and Pittsburgh (always a tough customer). They lost both, but they played tough in both. On the other hand you have the team squeaked by Cincy – one of the dreariest teams in the league. Cleveland plays better D than the Ravens now and their offense is going to get back on track. I know, I know I can hear all of you saying, Jiggy, what about the potent Baltimore offense? For those questioners, I have 37 words for you, ‘Joe Flacco.’ Look for the Browns to get it done against the flailing Ravens.
Carolina on my Mind (car) @ The Land of Zimmerman (Minny) – Minny -3.5
I know that AP is feeling under the weather and may not play, I know that the offensive powerhouse that is Tarvaris Jackson has been sat in favor of the journeyman, Gus Frerotte and I know that Carolina is 2-0 and riding the tuna train to tuna town. But I just don’t think that you can travel halfway across the country to Motown (joke intended) and expect to beat the Vikes. Carolina, call Cinderella, she wants her slippers back. Take the Vikes.
Herman Edwards (KC) @ Hotlanta (atl) – The Dirty South -6
I have hated on Herm Edwards for years and finally he has a team with the talent that matches his skill. I had to endure the Chefs v. Raiders game whilst stuck in the hospital last weekend and let me tell you, I felt like I was delivering a 73 lb screaming black baby through my anus – with no epidural. It was that painful. I am convinced that the Cal bears could beat the Raiders and I am beginning to think that the Harvard Saracens could beat the Chefs. Wow was that an awful game. But I am sure the KC coaches also hated watching it – and they have decided to fix the problem. And their solution is… wait for it… Tyler Thigpen. Sure, he was a household name in college, playing for the Coastal Carolina Homos. This is a trainwreck and a half (no offense to the people who were actually in the trainwreck – but after watching the Chefs play, I wish I had been in a trainwreck). I will take wookie QB, Matt Ryan and Michael ‘the burner’ Turner and give the points.
Katrina (NO) @ The Mile High City (Den) – Denver -5.5
Like that old beer commercial, we cannot ask why. The Aints aren’t that bad – in fact they’ve shown some flashes. But the Broncos are impressive this season. And it is always hard coming to play in the thin air. Take the Broncs and give the points.
Many of my fans ask me where I wager. I have a gambling problem so I bet on everything from the ponies to how long (in inches) my excrement is. But I have been a proud customer to superbook.com for some time. They have good lines, great promotions, many betting options and most importantly, I get my money from them on time. They have signed a deal with Wagercom.com. So if you are looking for an online book, try them out. They are Jiggy tested and Jiggy approved.
