Judd Jugmonger's NFL Playoff Picks - Sunday, January 24, 2010



Howdy Folks & Kin,

Since lot a y'all have been a pesterin' me about them NFL playoffs and who's a gonna win and who I think is a gonna do what not, I thought I might throw my two-bits and wooden nickels into the ring, especially as I ain't made them "Judd Jugmonger's NFL Picks" fer a spell... and I tell ya'll good folks why in just a bit.

But first, regardin' this week's playoff games. Ok, I tell you what, if all a y'all really need my opinion here, then you must be ridin' the short bus to n' fro. It don't take no rocket scientist to tell what a rotten salami smells like, or that them Indianapolis Colts and New Orleans Saints are a gonna win the Pabst Blue Ribbon this week. And them Minnesota Vikings and New York Jets, well I guess at the end the day, they're a gonna be shakin' their heads harder than a hound dog with both ticks and fleas!

Now first up, over in Indianapolis, Peyton Manning is a gonna face pretty boy Mark Sanchez... well not atually, but you know what I mean, I think you do. Now, I tell you what, I was surprised as all git out that them Jets wound up where they is today ... and I guess y'all have to give them coaches and players a hand .... and this week they'll a need a helpin' hand to git up off a their butts and off a the field!

Now why do I think them Jets is a gonna git the "butt turf" this week? Well, let's see now, it'a cause them Colts have a gotta make up fer that thar week 16 loss to them Jets, what destroyed their quest fer the "perfect seaon", - a glorious distinction that only my Miami Dolphins still can claim. They're ain't on claim jumoers this year. Uh, anyway, so even though them Colts let their starters take a nap that week - their's a gonna be some payback this week.

By the same jitney token, over in New Orleans, Burt Favre might just need a walkin' stick and help his and his Vikings off a the field. Turth is they given' us all a great ride this season to make up fer all that fetootin' "is he retired, or is he aint" fodder. But, I just don't think ole Burt's a got anymore drops a Geritol in his jug, to keep him and his team from bein' knocked off the grid-iron and onto the shuffle board courts, - like what they used to gots in Miami Beach back in it's day. I may be wrong, but I think Drew "call him the breeze" Brees is just a gonna pick apart that thar Minnesota defense.... assuming them Vikings' rush don't git to him first! I just don't think ole' Burt is a gonna be able to keep up. It's a gonna be a great game, though. Heck, even that thar Colts / Jets match up will be fun to watch.

Now, uh, Mark Sanchez, here a tip - if a you want to avoid eatin' some dirt this week ... you best just keep a handin' that ball off. Who knows, you may even come out smellin' like a rose... or a tulip. Probably not, though.

So folks, go with them Colts. ... and don't ferget, go with them Saints, too. Why heck, I even spun my little pigskin, and it sure did point to what it was I was just sayin.

All right that's thar's my picks fer this week's playoff. Now, as fer me and where I been, well, I've been a real busy doin' some tourin' and bein' in and out of the studio. The "Jugmongers Bluegrass Band" is almost through with our "Live At the Hootenanny" record we is doin'. That's a kept me from makin' my podcast and doin' this here blog.
Also, well to be honest, it's taken me this long to recover from them' Miami Dolphin's a not gittin' into the playoffs and all. Shucks, they wasn't exactly playin' playoff caliber anyways - but, well, even when you know your beer's gone flat, you still hope there might be some fizz left in that thar bottle anyway.

The other good news, is that in a few weeks I'll be doin' some podcasts again - but this one's a gonna be about music! I'll also give y'all some prognostications and picks on some other sports, too ... so those a y'all what have made some big money from my picks, what I gave you this year .... well, you'll have something to listen to, too! Stay tuned! It's a gonna be a good one.

Lastly, but not leastly, I've been puttin' together some playlists a unsigned artists what I like over on myspace. If y'all want to hear some great music and support them artists, look fer my playlist what is: "Judd Jugmonger's Favorites This Week". It's at: http://www.myspace.com/jugmongers
