Wildcard Weekend: The Toss Up
Admit it Saints fans; every time you hear talk of the playoffs and “wildcard weekend”, your initial inclination is to shout “Who gives a good $hit, my team ain’t in it!” But for the next few moments, do your best to retreat from your haze of bitterness and ponder upon the reality that any postseason football action is better than no football at all. And besides, at least the Saints are now eligible for a top 10 draft pick. (Wow, this “cup half full” b.s. really seems to work!)
This weekend, the Chicks will be forced to start adopting teams to support in the post season. And just like cute little girls from Africa are so “in right now” when it comes to Hollywood adoptions, the Chicks hope to find just the right team to slip into our fashionable baby sling as well as we slink away from the paparazzi on our way from rehab. But how can you choose among the steaming crap of dog poo that somehow snuck their way in on the NFC side and those boring-as-sin jack-holes that managed to clinch in the AFC? We say pick the team you don’t hate or just flip a coin.
Redskins vs Seahawks
We flipped a coin on this one as they both reek with mediocrity.
Chick Pick: Redskins by 10
Jaguars vs Steelers
If you haven’t figured out that we hate the Steelers, then you don’t really know us at all, do you?
Chick Pick: Jaguars by 3
Titans vs Chargers
Break out the coin: We don’t give a crap.
Chick Pick: Chargers by 14
Giants vs Buccaneers
Ooh, what do you do when you almost hate the teams equally? You go with the division rival whose mere exisitence makes you want to vomit.
Chick Pick: Giants by 4

fren-enemies? Yes, but good ones. It’s all in good sportsmanship
I’ll have to agree with most of your picks, because I don’t care about most of the teams either. I will most definitely be rooting for the Giants over the Bucs, as that is the only game I can really get into this weekend.
Overall, I am pulling for the Packers 1) because I love Brett, and 2) I hate the AFC teams.
I like the Pack too, but mainly because I REALLY REALLY hate Dallas. And it’s not really Dallas’ fault that I hate them. Truthfully, I like the players on their current roster. But when I think of all the ass-kickings they handed the Saints over the years in the Aikman era, I can’t help but want them dead.
@ diva: I’m a good sport…when my team wins!!!
The Seahawks “reek with mediocrity”? Tough crowd…
