NO!  I refuse!

Well, OK.  Me predicts:

         SAINTS (currently 3-2)
LOS ANGELES RAMS     	W     
at Phoenix Cardinals    W 
TAMPA BAY BUCCANNEERS  	W 
at New England Patriots	W
at San Francisco 49ers	W (oh please, oh please....)
WASHINGTON REDSKINS 	L 
MIAMI DOLPHINS     	W 
ATLANTA FALCONS   	L 
at Los Angeles Rams  	L 
BUFFALO BILLS      	W 
at New York Jets  	W 

End up 11-5.  I have to differ *big time* on David's Miami/Buff-Saints
games.  The Saints chances of winning these games are very high based on
Saints vs. AFC success.  OK, I know its history, but NO (even Hebert)
plays its most flawless games against the AFC's best.  On the other
hand, Atlanta's speed will give us fits.

         FORTY-WHINERS (currently 4-1)
at New England Patriots W
ATLANTA FALCONS        	L (The Red Gun)
at Phoenix Cardinals    W
at Atlanta Falcons     	W
NEW ORLEANS SAINTS  	L (oh please, oh puleeeez...)
at Los Angeles Rams 	W 
PHILADELPHIA EAGLES	L 
MIAMI DOLPHINS    	W 
at Minnesota Vikings 	W 
TAMPA BAY BUCCANNEERS	W
DETROIT LIONS        	W 

End up 12-4.  I can't see the Niners losing any road games this year.
Although they seem to be destined to playing at the level of their
competition (my apologies to the J-E-T-S) and, thus, might slip up in 
Phoenix, Minnesota, or at home with the improved Bucs.  So 11-5 ain't
entirely ludicrous.  That would leave the Saints at 3-3 in the West and
the Whiners at 4-2, by my count.  ......Nevermind.  I'm starting to
think my prediction bites.....


saints will wi-- (oops, caps-lock) SAINTS WILL WIN THE DIVISION!!!
	AND GO 14-2 AND WIN THE SUPERBOWL AND THE SCORE MONDAY WILL
	BE 	SAINTS  42  !!!!!!!!!!!
		POKES    3  !!!!!!!!!!!
er, i mean...
		SAINTS  42  !!!!!!!!!!!
		RAIDERS  3 (wildcard)  !!!!!!!!!!!

*****I'M NOT DONE YET*****

In closing, I'd like to say, "Hey Glooooria!?!" (using my best Edith
Bunker imitation) ----

If the Eagles and Niners were to play tomorrow, I'd bet the farm
on Randall & Co.  Why?

   A.	The Eagles DEE is far and away the *best* this year.  If you thought 
	they were good last year (which, kneauxing you, you didn't), check 
	out this year's STATS.  You'll find the Eagles have given up 700 
	yards less than the Saints and almost 1000 yards less than the Whiners, 
	albeit they've played one less game.  THESE stats are hard to ignore.
   B.	Randall vs. the Whiner secondary.
   C.	Barnett vs. the Whiner secondary.
   D.	Williams vs. the Whiner secondary.
   E.	Eventually, Walker vs. the Whiner secondary.
   F.	You're a gimp.

Oh, and don't worry.  NOBODY, especially yer niner buddies, TAKES 
YOU SERIOUSLY.

Peace. (not)
