Prediction Time

Well last week both Auburn and FL played some good football as did FSU. This week FSU has a ACC road game, but should win and UF well I think we know who they are playing. I think Auburn is playing Colgate this week, but I am not to sure on that one. Anyway it was a good weekend of college football, this weekend should prove to be a little more interesting with some more Top 25 matchup's.

FSU @ UVA - Virginia looked pretty good in losing to USCsr 17-14, however there only two wins are against 1AA schools. I expect FSU to go out and handle business and get our first road victory under Jimbo Fisher. FSU 24-10....not a blowout, just a solid victory and our defense proves it is making extreme progress. FSU defense leads the nation with 19 sacks this year.....

UL Monroe @ AU - Ummm....Auburn wins handily and Newton gets some more Heisman buzz after another monster game 45-17

UF @ Bama - The game of the week folks this should be a good one. I honestly had a good feeling UF might pull this out, but with Demps possibly slowed a little it changes my opinion. If Demps is slowed UF might struggle to score some without him. I think this game is very close come 4Q and then Bama wears down UF's D with their two running backs. Bama 24-21...UF then will have the same record as FSU.....

PS This blog has about as much diversity as MHS did, over the last month 75% of the posts have come from me or J. Do we need to bus in some posts from other blogs to spice this up much like we bused kids in from Palmgetto??

College Football Weekend

Looks like we have some good games again this weekend, unlike last weekend. First just wanted to let you btown folks know I will be down watching the the FSU game with my dad and then I am going to hang around for the evening. FSU plays at 3:30 and I know Auburn and UF play later so I will see what you guys are up to. Let's get into some predictions:

FSU v Wake: FSU will win easily score prediction is 45-17. Wake has no defense and their offense is based off of rushing. It might be close at the end of 1Q, but I see no major problems here and FSU should have it's 2nd straight convincing win.

UF v UK: I expect this game to be much like the other UF games, but I think this is the best team you have faced all year offensively. I expect UF to win because it is at home and the defense is good. UF wins 24-21...close game prediction.

SC v AU: I hate to do this Alex, but I don't see Auburn pulling this one out after last weekend. I think this game is going to be awesome to watch just like Auburn's last game with Auburn coming up just a little short. 27-24.

Rory I owe you a Bday drink sir......

Happy Bday Rory

I want to wish a Happy Bday to my arch nemesis....The only reason I am doing this is because you are now that much closer to 30 and I know that does not make you happy. Have a good one buddy!

PS I plan on being in btown this Saturday I will hit you up.

Halloween Horror Nights

Hey everybody if you are in the mood for some fun and a good scare we will be going to Halloween Horror Nights this year. As of right now we have decided that we are going on Oct 22nd, which is a Friday. Ticket prices are $49.99 with a coke can/FL discount and we have booked a room at the Doubletree Orlando - Universal Studios, which according to Danny is really really close to the park, as in we should be able to walk. We picked Friday because it was decently cheaper then going on Saturday and figured we could just leave after work and get there right on time. Come on folks make it happen!

Obama Strikes Again

We run everything through our credit card. We use a rewards card and pay the balance off each month. This has worked out great for us for years. We've maintained the same account with Citi for this entire time (at first because they used to have a pretty good rewards program, now it's mainly that the system is in place and is working).

Well thanks to Obama's incessant need to protect me from the big bad business, congress passed the Credit Card Accountability Responsibility and Disclosure Act of 2009. In response to this, Citi decided to raise the interest rate on our card. That's fine in theory, like I said we don't carry a balance. Apparently, though, consumers have to "opt-in" to any rate increases otherwise the account is allowed to expire.

Citi notified us about our rate increase, as I would come to find out, by mail a while back. We most likely thought it was one of the myriad of credit card offers that we get and promptly shredded it thereby "opting-out" of our interest rate increase.

Ignorant of all this, I called Citi today to ask about our replacement cards since our current cards are expiring soon. I was greeted by a nice enough man with a thick Indian accent who was happy to help me with my inquiry. After a few minutes of being on hold he returned and explained the above to me. Not wanting to go through the hassle of setting up a new account, I asked if we could now "opt-in". He couldn't do that for us so I went up the management-chain. After a few more minutes on hold, I got an account manager who was able to get us squared away. Clearly, Citi was not willing to lose a long-time customer in good standing.

So the end result is that everything is fine in spite of Obama trying his best to protect me, a.k.a. inconvenience me. If I wouldn't have called today we would have been in for a major inconvenience come October. FML.

No predictions this year?

Come on Nick, let us know about those noles. Drew, let us know who colgate plays.

UF over UT 28-14

And Then There Were Three

You guys might not know this, but I consider myself a bit of a loner. I tend to think of myself, as a one man wolf pack. Though when I met Jenny I knew she was one of my own. And my wolf pack, it grew by one. So there was two of us in the wolf pack, I was alone first in the pack and then Jenny joined later. And twelve weeks ago when Jenny introduced me to it, I thought "wait a second could it be?" and now I know for sure I just added one more person to my wolf pack. Three of us wolves running around the desert together in Tucson, looking for diapers and formula. So tonight, I make a toast!

PS: Hold off on any mentions on Facebook for a week or so as Jen hasn't informed her work yet.
