Happy Thanksgiving.... oh yeah POTFH

First off Happy Thanksgiving!!  Hope everyone has a great and safe day tomorrow.   It's never been a holiday favorite for me, but I get the idea behind it.   Also means Christmas is right around the corner which is my favorite holiday! 

So, I have some explaining to do and I don't think this will surprise many of you but I am very private person and my business is just that my business.  Anyway, since a few of you know anyway no harm here in telling I was in the hospital here recently, stayed Wed-Fri of last week, and I am not going further into details, but I am doing OK.  The only thing that pissed me off was I went in for a follow up infusion today and was told it would be an hour and a half and 4 hours later I was still sitting like this.  

 I was REALLY late to work!   I appreciate all your concern those that caught on, I didn't exactly hide it but I never came right out and said anything via twitter. 



Since this is a holiday weekend, I decided to get the picks up now and fly solo due to it being a holiday.  Don't worry if(and that is a BIG if) Purdue can somehow win Sat we will be bowl eligible and I will do another bowl pick em.  This Saturday we play our arch rival Indiana, and let me just say I HATE THEM, no wait I REALLY REALLY HATE THEM!   Their fanbase is ridiculous and arrogant, and the Indy media thinks they are our home team and barely cover us.  Anyway, in year's past especially under Tiller this was a slam dunk win, and although IU is bad this is no slam dunk.  They can actually move the ball on offense but their D sucksass.  So, it might be a shootout at ross ade, and I swear to God if Hope is brought back even if he wins this and a bowl game I might not renew my season tickets.   Onto the picks  Boise State is off
