I saw some of you grumbling about doing badly in our NFL picks this week, so I thought I'd trot out my 6-7 record to make you feel better. By dipping below .500 for the week, my alternate plan takes shape: Maybe it's time to make my picks, and then just reverse them. I need to do something... achieving the same outcome as a coin-flip would is not getting it done.
