Tom's Mascot Melee - Week 17
12.29.04 (5:31 am)   [edit]
WEEK 17 (Last Week: 8-8 - Season Total: 127-116)

Bengals at Eagles - Another bird devoured by a wild beast. If I do this again next year, I might go with the rock band instead. PICK: BENGALS

Browns at Texans - The brown dog will be just a chew toy to the bull. PICK: TEXANS

Lions at Titans - No hope for the king of the jungle here. PICK: TITANS

Packers at Bears - It's gonna be too easy for the ferocious bear to hack up the packing worker. PICK: BEARS

Dolphins at Ravens - The dolphin will easily bite the raven out of the sky. PICK: DOLPHINS

Vikings at Redskins - The viking will prove to be tougher and more well-armed than the Native American. PICK: VIKINGS

Saints at Panthers - It'll be a tough fight, but St. Albert will eventually slay the panther. PICK: SAINTS

Jets at Rams - Two curly horns won't be enough protection from an aircraft missile. PICK: JETS

Steelers at Bills - The steel worker's hammer will easily clobber the buffalo. PICK: STEELERS

49ers at Patriots - All the gold in the world won't save the miner. PICK: PATRIOTS

Falcons at Seahawks - Here's a nice and even battle between two predatory birds. I'll give the edge to the home bird. PICK: SEAHAWKS

Buccaneers at Cardinals - All the pirate has to do is use his sword like a flyswatter. PICK: BUCCANEERS

Colts at Broncos - HORSE FIGHT! And I predict the young colt will get lucky and hind-kick the lights out of the seasoned Bronco. PICK: COLTS

Jaguars at Raiders - The crude pirate should be nasty enough to stand up to the wild cat. PICK: RAIDERS

Chiefs at Chargers - It'll be another hit-and-run for the Dodge muscle car. PICK: CHARGERS

Cowboys at Giants - This time, the Giant's flattening the Cowboy before he starts anything. PICK: GIANTS
 
Tom's Mascot Melee - Week 16
12.23.04 (5:29 am)   [edit]
WEEK 16 (Last Week: Another 7-9 - Season Total: 119-108)

Packers at Vikings - A gross mismatch in weaponry. PICK: VIKINGS

Raiders at Chiefs - Wild pirates vs. experienced tribal bosses. I give the edge to Geronimo & Co. PICK: CHIEFS.

Broncos at Titans - A wild horse defeating a Titan? Neigh! (OK, I got nothing.) PICK: TITANS

Falcons at Saints - Another bird to get skewered by St. Albert's sword. PICK: SAINTS

Ravens at Steelers - Yet another bird vs. human matchup. It must be a very lopsided week. PICK: STEELERS

Panthers at Buccaneers - I think the panther will get the swashbuckler before he can get to his sword. PICK: PANTHERS

Bears at Lions - Fortunately, there's no "Tigers" team in the NFL, so you're spared the obvious Wizard of Oz reference. Oh yeah, the matchup... it's an even pairing (for once), but I'm giving it to the king of the jungle. PICK: LIONS

Texans at Jaguars - Can the bull stand up to the jaguar this time? I say, not really. PICK: JAGUARS

Giants at Bengals - One foot turns the tiger into an orange-and-black roadkill mess. PICK: GIANTS

Chargers at Colts - The young buck won't know what hit him. PICK: CHARGERS

Bills at 49ers - I'm sure the gold miners had to deal with a lot of buffalo back in the mid-1800s, so I'll say he'll put his experience to good use here. PICK: 49ERS

Patriots at Jets - Again, a gross mismatch in weaponry (and flying ability). PICK: JETS

Cardinals at Seahawks - The hawk's eating red meat tonight. PICK: SEAHAWKS

Redskins at Cowboys - Tonto's gettin' roped. PICK: COWBOYS

Browns at Dolphins - This brown dog can swim... so he'll be able to bring down the dolphin somehow. PICK: BROWNS

Eagles at Rams - Another bird trampling for the mighty ram. PICK: RAMS
 
Tom's Mascot Melee - Week 15
12.15.04 (3:25 am)   [edit]
WEEK 15 (Last Week: 7-9 - Season Total: 112-99)

Steelers at Giants - The steel worker's traveling to the land of the giants, and there's not anything big enough to take with him that could do some serious damage. PICK: GIANTS

Redskins at 49ers - The gold miner can swing a mean pickax, but that's not enough protection from an arrow. PICK: REDSKINS

Panthers at Falcons - Though the falcon can be quite fierce, against a ferocious panther it's still a mismatch. PICK: PANTHERS

Bills at Bengals - This matchup's a bit more fair at least... a buffalo vs. a tiger. Edge goes to the one with the claws. PICK: BENGALS

Cowboys at Eagles - In real life, the Cowboys don't stand a chance. But in this premise, how in the hell is an eagle gonna bring down one of these rednecks? PICK: COWBOYS

Texans at Bears - You'd think it was the stock market... and fortunately, right now it's on the side of the bulls. PICK: TEXANS

Jaguars at Packers - I think the packing workers will get lucky with the staple gun again. PICK: PACKERS

Vikings at Lions - Before the viking can get his weapons out, the lion's gonna get medieval on his ass. PICK: LIONS

Chargers at Browns - Another dog to end up as Dodge Charger roadkill. PICK: CHARGERS

Seahawks at Jets - It's too easy for a fighter jet to shoot down a bird like this. PICK: JETS

Saints at Buccaneers - An epic swordfight between St. Albert and a swashbuckling pirate. And this time the noble knight's walking the plank. PICK: BUCCANEERS

Rams at Cardinals - Not exactly an exciting matchup. The ram will find a way to knock the bird out of the sky. PICK: RAMS

Broncos at Chiefs - The Native American tribe leader can tame any horse, even a full-grown wild horse like the bronco. PICK: CHIEFS

Titans at Raiders - A pirate's cannonball may be just a bullet to a titan, but a well-placed cannonball can still bring him down. PICK: RAIDERS

Ravens at Colts - The Colt may be a young horse, but he's still got energy to burn, and he'll wear the Raven out before trampling it. PICK: COLTS

Patriots at Dolphins - There's a reason a soldier from 1776 uses a bayonet: if he can't shoot the dolphin, he can still stab it. PICK: PATRIOTS
 
Tom's Mascot Melee - Week 14
12.09.04 (6:00 am)   [edit]
WEEK 14 (Last Week: 11-5 - Season Total: 105-90)

Bears at Jaguars - Well-balanced battles are hard to come by in these types of matchups. A scuffle between a bear and a jaguar will be a long and brutal fight... and I think the cat will come out on top. PICK: JAGUARS

Bengals at Patriots - The Yank's got a bullet with the tiger's name on it. PICK: PATRIOTS

Browns at Bills - The buffalo may have brute force, but the dog has more bite (as well as more dexterity). PICK: BROWNS

Lions at Packers - The packing worker's getting ripped apart like a Christmas present. PICK: LIONS

Colts at Texans - The big black bull will prove to be too much for the young horse. PICK: TEXANS

Saints at Cowboys - A knight with a sword is really no match for a cowboy with a shotgun. PICK: COWBOYS

Giants at Ravens - Quoth the Raven, "That guy's just too damn big." PICK: GIANTS

Raiders at Falcons - The falcon may be a fierce bird, but he'll be cut down in no time by the fierce pirate. PICK: RAIDERS

Dolphins at Broncos - Horses have no problem galloping through water, so that dolphin's getting trampled. PICK: BRONCOS

Jets at Steelers - A bunch of well-targeted wrenches and steel beams will bring down the jet. PICK: STEELERS

49ers at Cardinals - Easy target practice for the gold miner. PICK: 49ERS

Rams at Panthers - The panther dominates the ram in ferocity. PICK: PANTHERS

Buccaneers at Chargers - Even a skilled sword can't stop a Dodge Charger at top speed. PICK: CHARGERS

Eagles at Redskins - The eagle's flying into hostile territory... he'll get hit with an arrow in no time. PICK: REDSKINS

Seahawks at Vikings - The viking's got many tools on hand to knock birds out of the sky. (I feel I must apologize for all this man-on-fowl violence. Rest assured that no actual animals were harmed in the making of these picks.) PICK: VIKINGS

Chiefs at Titans - The Chief's getting flattened before he can say "Ugh". PICK: TITANS
 
Tom's Mascot Melee - Week 13
12.01.04 (9:43 am)   [edit]
Well, forget I said anything last time around... I just came off my BEST week ever this year, with TWELVE games picked correctly! Now let's see if I can't keep this winning margin going... only five more weeks to go!

WEEK 13 (Last Week: 12-4 - Season Total: 94-85)

Cardinals at Lions - The king of the jungle vs. a little red bird. Talk about a mismatch. PICK: LIONS

Falcons at Buccaneers - Another hapless bird for a pirate's sword to slash through. PICK: BUCCANEERS

Bills at Dolphins - Somehow the buffalo will find a way to trample the elusive dolphin. PICK: BILLS

Panthers at Saints - It'll be a tough battle, but St. Albert will outlast the cat. PICK: SAINTS

Bengals at Ravens - Another hapless bird for a tiger's claws to slash through. PICK: BENGALS

Texans at Jets - One fighter jet missile will turn the bull into grilled steak. PICK: JETS

Vikings at Bears - The mighty viking fears no bear. PICK: VIKINGS

Patriots at Browns - The Yankee's gonna play "fetch the bullet" with the dog. PICK: PATRIOTS

49ers at Rams - Rams are no stranger to the gold miner... one shotgun blast will bring the animal down. PICK: 49ERS

Titans at Colts - A young horse is but a cockroach to the Titan. PICK: TITANS

Broncos at Chargers - It's a 200-horsepower engine vs. one horse. No contest. PICK: CHARGERS

Chiefs at Raiders - Now here's an epic battle... a pirate gang against a warring tribe. I believe the Native Americans will come out on top. PICK: CHIEFS

Packers at Eagles - The eagle's getting slaughtered, stuffed, sealed & shrinkwrapped. PICK: PACKERS

Giants at Redskins - In a stunning upset rivaling David & Goliath, the red man's arrows will slash the giant's throat, bringing the big guy down. PICK: REDSKINS

Steelers at Jaguars - Jaguar, meet sledgehammer. PICK: STEELERS

Cowboys at Seahawks - Another hapless bird for a cowboy's shotgun bullets to blast through. PICK: COWBOYS
