And I also give you my week 8 picks! A Bona fide lock to make you rich.

Peep my picks. Place your bets. Make $.

Tennessee vs. Indianapolis +8.5

Tennessee looked so weak last week. A nice dose of the Manningless Colts is the cure to any losing streak.

The Pick:Tennessee

New Orleans vs. @St. Louis +13.5

If only David Freese could quarterback the Rams . . .

The Pick:New Orleans

@New York Giants vs. Miami +10

The leader in the clubhouse for the Suck for Luck movement: The Miami Dolphins. No wins this year. As they rumble into the meadowlands Vegas spots them 10 points. But the New York Football (i hate when people call them this) Giants are coming off a bye. A late TD will put Miami to bed.

The Pick: NYG

@Carolina vs. Minnesota +3.5
I Love Cam, but i think the surrounding talent on Minnesota is too, well, talented. This one is close but Minnesota covers.

The Pick: Minnesota

@Baltimore vs. Arizona +13

Way to many big lines this week and after B'more's miserable monday night performance I have a difficult time putting my faith in the Ravens.

The Pick: Arizona

@Houston vs. Jacksonville +9.5

Jacksonville has a sneaky good D. Houston's D is weak. The Jags lose but cover.

The Pick: Jacksonville

@Buffalo vs. Washington +6

Buffalo will take this one by at least a touchdown.

The Pick: Toronto Bills (LOL)

Detroit vs. @Denver +3

TEBOW! yeah right.

The Pick: Detroit

New England vs. @Pittsburgh +3

Brady owns Pittsburgh.

The Pick: New England

@San Francisco vs. Cleveland +8.5

A stingy San Fran D propels the 9ers to a V.

The Pick: San Francisco

Cincinnati vs. @Seattle +3

I have little insight on this affair. . .12th man picks up the W for the hawks.

The Pick: Seattle

@Philadelphia vs. Dallas +3.5

Dallas is the most complete team in the NFC east and it will show in this one.

The Pick: Dallas

San Diego vs. @Kansas City +3.5

San Diego is too talented to lose this one.

The Pick San Deigo

Thank Me Later.

This American Life: The Right to Remain Silent

Halloween weekend is upon us and there is no doubt in my mind that you will hear about someone being in a situation that involves the 5-0. Yeah that's right we are talking about the Police. When the final pumpkin has been smashed and you wake up to November, MY GOD THE YEAR IS ZIPPING BY!, you will have at least one connection to a police involvement.

*To the older generations: Just ask one of your grandchildren or kids form the neighborhood, this is no longer your Dad's Halloween. This generation likes to get down.

I am still a college student here in Boston, MA and mark my word, escalated police enforcement this weekend is a mortal lock, just like my NFL picks, you can take that to the bank.

So if you do get involved in some late night mischief and find yourself in a sticky situation remember your rights. I found a fun little podcast about two guys who fought against the law, and unlike The Clash they won. These two unique, engaging stories dive into the corruption at the police station and unlawful behavior by officers.

Don't Lose The Fight With The Law This Halloween Weekend

This podcast is This American Life hosted by Ira Glass, has been running this radio show since 1995, and since has made it podcast compatible. Be sure to check out his other episodes, which are all stop what your doing and listen quality. You know the drill subscribe, download, and pop the headphones in.

Play hard, but be safe this halloween.

The B.S. Report: Week 7 NFL Picks

Football Fans. Sports Fans. Gather Round. . . Well I mean at least open up your itunes and subscribe to the BS report. Bill Simmons, the host, walks you through the latest in all of sports by bringing on a bevy of guests who open up on this show unlike anywhere else. Simply put there is no where else where you can feel as if the CEO of Ticketmaster, NBA General Managers and athletes are whispering sweet nothings into your ear. Heck even David Stern the Commissioner of the NBA and now part-time plantation owner (That ones on you Bryant Gumbel) has been on the show. WHERE ELSE ARE YOU GONNA FIND THAT?!?! You download and the man just drenches you with unique sports knowledge. get wet.

- In this week's podcast Simmons and Cousin Sal, a frequent guest, break down what they think the Vegas Lines will be for the upcoming Weekend of NFL. They make one of these every week of the NFL season. I couldn't help but make my own picks, maybe I will do one of these each week to get a nice flow going. Here are my picks, forget the brokers, screw wall st., getting a job is too tough, thus follow me to millions.

@ Cleveland vs Seattle +3

Seahawks have won two of three. Lost a tight one to ATL, Beat the Giants on the road. Coming off a bye week. They are getting three points. And playing the browns . . . bing, bang, boom.

THE PICK: Seattle

@ Detroit vs. Atlanta +3.5

Tough one. Detroit is coming off their 1st loss. ATL has been confusing all year. I expect a rebound for MEGAtron and co.

THE PICK: Detroit

@ Tennessee vs. Houston +3

Who though these two teams would be battling for the AFC South crown? . . .

THE PICK: Tennessee

@ Miami vs. Denver +3

Two thoughts. Miami has no wins. Tim Tebow is the man.

THE PICK: Denver
San Diego vs. @ New York Jets +2

The Jets need this one bad. Really Bad. Does Sexy Rexy Pull through? HELL NO. Daygo by a field goal.

THE PICK: San Diego

Chicago vs. @ Tampa Bay +1

Tampa loses by 45 one week. Then beats the Saints the following week. Toss up as the game is in London.

THE PICK: Chicago

@ Carolina vs. Washington +2.5

Is the Cam Newton train running out of steam? The skins are staring John Beck. Yikes. Somehow Washington has managed to win a handful of games this year, but with Beck at QB i am just unsure.

THE PICK: Cam Newton.. err..Carolina

@ Oakland vs. Kansas City +3.5

THE PICK: Oakland (Greg's Guarantee)

Pittsburgh vs. @ Arizona +3.5

Pittsburgh has gotta have some heart here, only a 3.5 favorite against the lowly cards.

THE PICK: Pittsburgh

@ Dallas vs. St. Louis +13

I dislike these double digit lines. Dallas is good but Romo loves the drama. Dallas wins. But close.

THE PICK: St. Louis

Green Bay vs. @ Minnesota +8

THE PICK: Green Bay

@ New Orleans vs. Indianapolis +14

Yikes. Does INDY win a game this year?

THE PICK: New Orleans

Baltimore vs. @ Jacksonville +7.5
Not even going to be close.

THE PICK: Baltimore

I have got some fun stuff for yall to plug into. Download. Listen. Enjoy. Podtastic.

New Apple Products.

The Future of Energy

60 Minutes: Shocker. No idea 60 minutes had a podcast. Granted this is just a full audio set from their show it doesn't matter. Pure journalism. Engaging stories. This week the main issue revolves around our ten year presence in Afghanistan.

60 Minutes: 10/16

Yeah I know, I know. I went a bit educational this week. But this stuff is important. Listen. Learn. And formulate opinions. The more you know the smarter you are.

Stay tuned for my week 7 NFL picks.

Occupy What?!?

#OccupyWallSt

What does that even mean? I have seen what is going on in downtown Boston. Large rallies, tons of signs and angry, angry people. But what is it that they really want? Like I am 100% sure . . .er. . . 99% (I hear that is their favorite number) sure that no one can explain exactly what these protestors want. You can't just take out corporations, which supply just about everything we own. Right?

Well it turns out they want more than just the cleansing of Wall St. and the corporations. They want a voice. America was built on a democracy of the people. The citizens are supposed to be the ones making the decisions for the best of the country and right now it seems as if this so called 1% have not only a majority of our countries money, but a louder voice than the 99% and that is just not fair. Yes, some people work harder than others and deserve a larger paycheck. But that doesn't entitle them to make our countries important decisions and sway lobbyists simply because of their job title. At least that is what I think. But I have no more power than you. Read the paper. Talk to people, and most importantly formulate your own opinion on the matter. Because your ideas just as important as mine.

However, I recommend you start off by listening to one of my Columbus Day podcasts, courtesy of NPR.

NFL Week 6 Preview & Vegas Perspective

Get it on!

Adam Carolla is my man crush. Seriously the dude even puts me to bed. For real, I listen to him every night before I doze off, so why aren't you?

Oh you don't listen to podcasts? Grow up.

Lose you podcast virginity to Adam Carolla. Now!

Seriously though, there is no better place to start your podcast downloading spree.

Carolla wows me every time with his hour long show, in which he rants about everything in his life. From his inept parents to the abysmal service on airplanes and the lack of a universal shower head no stone is ever unturned.

Carolla teams up with the lovely Allison Rosen and nerdy Bald Bryan.

The pod squad, which holds the Guinness World Record for most podcasts downloaded ever captivates you with their personal anecdotes and interesting takes on absurd pop culture stories and headline news.

While it seems just like another newscast/talk show it's not. Each complaint, bashing, rant or whatever you like to call them supports his mantra to be reasonable, act within your means and take a stand for what you believe is right. In the words of the Ace Man: GET IT ON!

Oh and I almost forgot he created Mangria. My favorite drink.
