Each of the top three
finishers ran to the form
of their final preps
I'll Have Another
ran a nearly perfect race
to win from nineteen
Bodemeister went
way too fast and still held off
all but the top one
Dullahan closed well
proving the Blue Grass win was
more than the surface
Union Rags, who once
seemed unbeatable, never
factored, found trouble

NFL, Week 3
Upstart Bills team, they
may just be for real--but New
England will still win
The Panthers over
Jacksonville in one for fans
and problem gamblers
Houston, too close to
New Orleans? Not, at least. as
regards the scoreboard
Cleveland in a romp
over Miami at home--
that felt good to write
Tennessee over
Denver, Chris Johnson hasn't
even gotten off yet
If Michael Vick is
healthy, not even New York's
got the ways and means
Detroit is not that
good, nor the Vikings that bad;
take Minnesota, yah?
San Franciscobeats
Cincinnati--as a city,
as a football team
There is a there in
Oakland, just not a good club;
Jets start 3-0
Kansas City is
so bad, even the Chargers
should have no problem
It shouldn't matter
which Baltimore team shows up--
The Rams are garbage
They say rivalry
games are different; I say
Green Bay slays the Bears
Arizona beats
Seattle, Pete Caroll eats
crow all season long
Tampa Bay fights for
respect, may win that yet lose
the Atlanta game
Colts' season appears
lost already--hey, Pittsburgh,
don't get excited
Washington has been
an early surprise; Dallas
puts an end to that
may just be for real--but New
England will still win
The Panthers over
Jacksonville in one for fans
and problem gamblers

New Orleans? Not, at least. as

Haiku, NFL playoffs week 2
The Seahawks, worst team
ever in NFL playoffs--
bar these Bears, that is
Only one team can lose
in Pittsburgh, alas; go with
the home team in here
Green Bay has shown great
valor all year, nonetheless
Falcons in a romp
Some like New England
some don't, but everyone
hates the New York Jets
ever in NFL playoffs--
bar these Bears, that is
Only one team can lose
in Pittsburgh, alas; go with
the home team in here
Green Bay has shown great
valor all year, nonetheless
Falcons in a romp
Some like New England
some don't, but everyone
hates the New York Jets

We at Paranormal Wagering summon him once a week via spirit medium for his sage advice on upcoming stakes races; the following is our best translation.
After centuries

been found--Zenyatta!

I Ching Picks the Winners: Will Cleveland Browns beat Pittsburgh Steelers this week
The present is embodied in Hexagram 24 - Fu (Turning Point): There will be a free course and progress. He finds no one to distress him in his exits and entrances. Friends come to him, and no error is committed. He will return and repeat his proper course. In seven days comes his return. There will be advantage in whatever direction movement is made. | |
The second line, divided, shows the admirable return of its subject. There will be good fortune. | |
The fourth line, divided, shows its subject moving right in the centre among those represented by the other divided lines, and yet returning alone to his proper path. | |
The fifth line, divided, shows the noble return of its subject. There will be no ground for repentance. | |
The situation is shifting, and Yang (the active masculine force) is becoming much more powerful. | |
The future is embodied in Hexagram 58 - Tui (Joy): There will be progress and attainment, but it will be advantageous to be firm and correct. | |
The things most apparent, those above and in front, are embodied by the upper trigram K'un (Earth), which is transforming into Tui (Lake). As part of this process, docility and receptivity are giving way to joy, pleasure, and attraction. | |
The things least apparent, those below and behind, are embodied by the lower trigram Chen (Thunder), which is transforming into Tui (Lake). As part of this process, movement, initiative, and action are giving way to joy, pleasure, and attraction. |
BOTTOM LINE--STEELERS BY 10.
