Last year was my first title since 2012, and it's ironic I'm here in the wake of 49ers QB Colin Kaepernick's decision to not stand during the national anthem that has gotten him vilified by right wingers and praise from other people including veterans and other activist athletes like Kareem Abdul-Jabbar for being a prominent athlete taking a stand for the Black community.
Should be interesting to see what happens when they take on the Los Angeles Rams down the road from me in Santa Clara on Monday night.
Yep, I said the Los Angeles Rams. This not only their 80th season since their founding in 1936, they moved back to LA from St Louis in the offseason. This is their first regular season game as the LA Rams since they bounced for St Louis in 1995.But back to the fun part. It's the opening weekend of the 2016 NFL season and the prognostication contest between me and Mike Watts. Eli's unfortunately not competing this year. and both of us wish him a speedy recovery from the health issues that have him sidelined this year. He will have the opportunity to guest post his thoughts here about how the season's going and looking forward to doing so when that happens..
We hope and pray you make a speedy recovery and are back tangling with us for NFL prognostication supremacy in 2017.
Teams I'm selecting to win this week are in bold print, home team in CAPS.
