The NFL, MLB and NCAA According To Allen McGee

Allen McGee — Wed, 21 Sep 2011 17:42:15 +0000

While the Cowboys are getting players in and out of the hospital and the major conferences in NCAA football are shaking and shuddering (more on that in a minute).

YOUR Texas Rangers are close to wrapping up another division title and heading to the playoffs. Derek Holland dominated Oakland for his 15th win last night. The magic number for Texas has been reduced to 4. I never woulda thunk it -- but the Texas Rangers will win the West because of starting pitching. Holland, Ogando and CJ Wilson have been GREAT -- they wrap up the season with a three game series at 2nd place Anaheim. It looks like those games won't matter one bit. Playoff tix are already on sale, BTW. More Allen McGee'ism after the jump.

Allen McGee's Football Weekend Recap – 9/19

Allen McGee — Mon, 19 Sep 2011 19:58:31 +0000

I only bombed on one pick -- Bears at New Orleans. I missed the spread on the Cowboys game but hey -- a win is a win. As for the Cowboys -- the Romo haters are quiet today.

Kitna actually was better than I expected. I can't stress enough how hard it is to come off the bench like that but his 2 INTs were bad (one in the end zone, the other on about the Dallas 40yard line)-- that's probably a 10 point swing. More post game re-cap after the jump.
