Seth's 50 Centers

Chris “Big Game” Galoski joins me to break down/celebrate the Ohio State Rose Bowl victory.

We talk about the game, and preview next season, because, you know, it’s never too early to preview next season — yes, we both realize it’s nine months away!

First off, congrats to the Buckeyes for getting the monkey off their back! Rose Bowl champs, and in the immortal words of all those who came before, “They can’t take it away from” them…because really, who would try, except the NCAA?

NFL Picks

We had quite a bit of activity in the final week of the regular season and the improbable result is a three-way tie for the overall championship.

Big Game made a furious charge with a 14-2 week — he won the week and the extra point by nailing the overall score exactly at 37, while Adman and JMB also had 14 and picked 35, so close!

Big Game’s run puts him in a flat-footed tie — I guess that’s even more of a tie than just a “tie” — with Miles and Fulch for the overall pick-em championship.

Because the CPA didn’t budget enough funds for a three-person free lunch, the trio will fight to the death in a playoffs pick-em. I invite all participants to take part, but only these three can win the overall title — we’ll pick every game in the postseason and they’ll pick an overall score for the Super Bowl. I’ll even make sure they’re different numbers and we’ll see who comes out on top!

I’m secretly rooting for Fulch because I haven’t seen him since college, but that won’t change the fact that, to the best of my ability, I’ll add up the scores correctly.
