ALRIGHT, down the home stretch we come.
What should be a good week for me, after going 10-6 while distancing myself from some, and gaining rapidly on others, has sadly become a bitter reality check for me.
My eight-year-old son Santxol (pronounced Sancho) appeared on “The Press Box” on KISS96FM last Sunday during our NFL picks segment, and using whatever device these ‘millennials’ use to unlock information, he sat down like a veteran broadcaster (Kirk Smith had nothing on him), slid coolly to the mic and proceeded to recite ‘pigskin prognostication’ gold.
Using family ties, school friends, favourite colours and foods as references, he went a robust 11-4 out of 15 picks.
The Thursday night game had already been played, but seeing how he loves cheese on everything I’m sure he would have taken the Packers in that one, so let’s give him the benefit of the doubt. Let’s say he went 12-4.
Maybe that whole ‘Pick like Sannie’ theory has its flaws after all?
Anyway it’s Father v Son again this week. Can ‘Naughty 2.0’ do it again or was it a fluke? We shall soon find out.
