Following Pete’s lead, I figure there’s no better time than Week 1 to do NFL picks. (Besides, there could be pride and bragging rights involved, but only if I win.) I’ll get to the rest later, but for tonight’s game, I’m going to go with Indy over New England. I know its in New England, but the Patriots haven’t been notoriously fast starters of late, and the Colts have some piss and vinegar in their blood (which ironically, is NOT on the NFL’s banned substances list) from last years AFC title game, and will take lose this one 27-24. (EDIT: Whew! What a genius I am!)

Besides, if I’m gonna live in this town, I might as well start drinking the blue Kool-Aid now.
