The Weekly Blabbermouth- NFL Picks Print E-mail

That point has finally been reached, football season just started, now it feels like it’s almost over. Well, there is one good thing about the NFL’s mid-point – it usually falls right around the time that NASCAR’s annoyingly long season is finally winding to a close. What a wonderful sport when the most uninteresting man involved in it can take the championship for four straight years. I think NASCAR may be taking this consistency thing a bit too far. Left turn, left turn, left turn, Jimmie Johnson wins another cup! On to next season! Left turn, left turn, left turn…..

Oh, yeah, back to football. 

Overall record to this point, 76-37

Ever thought we would see a season in the NFL when playoff teams were decided by week seven? Well, this may be the one. While I will stop short of saying that no drama remains and no opportunities will present themselves in the next few weeks, I will commit to this – we know the good teams, they’re really good, we know the bad teams, they’re really bad. At this point, most teams are either playing for divisions and seeding or because they have to.

Overall record to this point, 68-32

Food Ministry dishes out direct solution to Hunger in the High Country, America

by MEGAN NORTHCOTE

For some reason, canned food drives always seem to happen only around the holidays.

Maybe it’s because the holiday season has traditionally been thought of as a time of giving.

Or perhaps it’s because people begin thinking of their own families’ big turkey dinners and wish for those less fortunate to be able to experience the same magical grandeur of the holidays.

However, According to the UN Food and Agriculture Organization, the number of people starving in the world has exceeded 1 billion.  At this rate, the number starving will exceed 9 billion by the year 2050.

Beer sludge for the open-minded traveler 

by KELSEY OHLEGER

I think it is safe to presume that college students love beer.

They love drinking it: in plastic red cups, out of holes on the side of the can and through homemade funnels.

They love playing with it: beer pong tournaments, endless card games and chugging contests.

They love promoting it: neon signs hung in cluttered apartments, logos on worn-out t-shirts and embroidered on sweat-stained ball caps.

I have recently learned of a way to take this passion a step further by eating it.
