WEEK 1 PICK ME UP
[Archive by weeks: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17, playoffs 1 2 3 4]
OK, so I missed out on picking the Colts-Patriots game last night.
But here's the first edition of the Pick Me Up. (Note: Tennessee-Miami has been moved to tomorrow afternoon because of Hurricane Ivan)
My picks in bold
SATURDAY, SEPT 11
Tennessee at Miami
CBS: Dan Dierdorf, Todd Blackledge, Armen Keteyian
(Dierdorf is doing play-by-play, since Dick Enberg is covering the U.S. Open)
SUNDAY, SEPT 12
EARLY GAMES
Seattle at New Orleans
FOX: Ron Pitts, Tim Ryan (UGH!)
Arizona at St. Louis
FOX: Dan Miller, JC Pearson
Baltimore at Cleveland
CBS: Kevin Harlan, Randy Cross
Cincinnati at New York Jets
CBS: Ian Eagle, Solomon Wilcots
Detroit at Chicago
FOX: Kenny Albert, Brian Baldinger
Jacksonville at Buffalo
CBS: Don Criqui, Steve Tasker
Oakland at Pittsburgh
CBS: Jim Nantz, Phil Simms, Bonnie Bernstein
San Diego at Houston
CBS: Gus Johnson, Brent Jones
(Houston is my Week 1 Survival Football pick)
Tampa Bay at Washington
FOX: Joe Buck, Troy Aikman, Cris Collinsworth, Pam Oliver
LATE GAMES
Atlanta at San Francisco
FOX: Curt Menefee, Tim Green
Dallas at Minnesota
FOX: Sam Rosen, Bill Maas
(The "No Hawk Ramble" Game of the Week)
New York Giants at Philadelphia
FOX: Dick Stockton, Daryl Johnston, Tony Siragusa
SUNDAY NIGHT FOOTBALL
Kansas City at Denver
ESPN: Pat Summerall, Joe Theismann, Paul Maguire, Suzy Kolber
(Mike Patrick won't be back on ESPN until October)
MONDAY, SEPT 13
MONDAY NIGHT FOOTBALL
Green Bay at Carolina
ABC: Al Michaels, John Madden, Michele Tafoya
--- --- --- --- ---
The games that will be shown in Arkansas on Sunday:
12 p.m. Oakland-Pittsburgh (CBS) and Tampa Bay-Washington (FOX)
3:15 p.m. Dallas-Minnesota (FOX)
7:30 p.m. Kansas City-Denver (ESPN)
And of course, Green Bay-Carolina on Monday.
The fact that FOX is sending Ron Pitts and Tim Ryan to the Seahawks-Saints game is an insult to 'Hawks fans. But as the season goes along, they won't dare make that mistake.
Oh, and I don't get to see the Florida State-Miami game until 8 p.m., because of an Arkansas football special (they're playing Texas tomorrow night). Son of a bitch.
