Brian Berger’s NFL Locks for Week 6
Oct 16th
Sorry for no pictures. Solomon is out of town and I don’t have the patience right now to figure this out.
Fucking Favre. Not only does he dominate the offseason with his waffling but if he does ANYTHING other than throw a pick 6 at the end of that game I cover and go 2-2 for the week (10-8-2 for the year). But no, not the Gunslinger Kid who is just having fun out there, who missed a wide open Percy Harvin a few plays before which would have probably gotten them into field goal position. He sucks. Onto this weeks picks.
SF -6 vs Oakland. Classic sucker bet in my opinion. SF is winless, their coach/qb incompetent and arguing, the Raiders just ended their 13 game losing streak against the Chargers but yet SF is favored. Doesn’t make any sense. Vegas is begging you to take Oakland and the points, I’ll do the the opposite
KC +4.5 vs Houston. There is something about the Chiefs. They fly around on defense, have some good young players on the offensive side (Cassell not included because he blows) and played the Colts close on the road. Plus as always, once the Texans start to get a little bit of notoriety they fold immediately.
Pittsburgh -13.5 vs Cleveland. Return of Big Ben+one of the best defenses in football+rookie qb making his first start against said defense=blowout.
Chicago -6.5 vs Seattle. Seattle is an awful awful road team. They covered on the road once last year and that was against St. Louis who won one game. Their last cover on the road against a team not named St. Louis was all the way back in Week 10 2008! against Miami

If You Have Zero Game, This is Why You Should Settle for Your College Girlfriend
Oct 8th
Guest Post by By Elizabeth Narins

If you’ve ever considered cutting ties from your current college fling — STOP. For real.
Post-graduation, you never know what you’re gonna get… but take our word for it: It’s likely to be a tough crowd. The competition is fierce since girls will think twice about hooking up with an entry-level dude. And kiss your sex life goodbye if you’re expecting to get laid after wining and dining a girl ONCE. At the very least, you’ve gotta grapple for a second date (yes, we mean date). What is that? You think getting a second date will be easy? Good fuckin’ luck. Exhibit A: One guy goes all-out with this ballsy plea for a second date… and the girl forwards it verbatim to a nine-chick panel for a joint consensus on whether to “yey” or “nay” him. Here’s his message and the panel’s response with the girl’s consensus to follow. (Don’t say we didn’t warn you about the tough crowd):

Introduction/Cigar Guy, Revealed
Oct 7th
Welcome to a weekly, as yet untitled column that hopes to bring a critical perspective to PerezSolomon. In this space you will find the occasional rant, the occasional diatribe, and frequent vulgarity-laden drivel regarding cultural happenings both in the U.S. and abroad. I am an American currently living in Norway, so please indulge me if I sprinkle so
me tidbits about Norwegian society into this space. And now onto the drivel…
I’m sure you are all familiar with Cigar Man or Cigar Guy, the turbaned, cigar totting, finely mustachioed man in the shot of Tiger Woods at the Ryder Cup. Given the sudden onslaught of internet super-stardom, one would imagine that all efforts would be made to track down Cigar Guy and subsequently release all of his personal details onto an information-starved public. No such details have emerged, however. A brief internet search revealed a startling, yet surprisingly logical theory. Yes, Cigar Guy is a clever viral-marketing ploy, but who is the culprit?
A visit to Sacha Baron Cohen’s Wikipedia seemingly provides no clues to resolving the matter. But things would have appeared quite different if you had visited the page at 6:00 PM ET, you would have seen quite a bit more information under the the section entitled “Future Projects“:
“In August 2010, Empire magazine leaked an interview with Sacha Baron Cohen about an upcoming film by accidentally posting the interview 2 months early.[22] Sacha described his new role as a “muslim pansexual transvestite sports professional” named Afzal. It was later decided he would be a professional golfer, after previously having wanted his role to be an upcoming Premier League football star, it was decided by Cohen’s lawyers that this was potentially too dangerous due to backlash from fans. Cohen also noted that it would be necessary to use facial prosthetics due to him now being so recognisable worldwide and aimed to make his character “of middle eastern descent and slightly chubby; basically not your archetypal sports star.” Cohen discussed how his new character is aimed to bring about dialogue about the closeted nature of homosexuality in the sports industry and reveal some of the shocking views held by some within it. No release date or title for the film has yet been announced.”
This paragraph was later removed by the content drones at Wikipedia for lack of source material. Apparently, the interview that the blurb refers to has been removed. Curious. Neglecting for a moment that the web address format does not match any of Empire‘s other interviews and that the Wikipedia entry could just be baseless speculation (OR yet another phase of the viral marketing – a “plan fiendishly clever in its intricacies”) is the possibility that Cigar Guy Sacha Baron Cohen that surprising? Consider the evidence.
Here is a close-up of the first picture of Cigar Guy, the one that has been photoshopped time and again.
Seems alright. But who could have imagined there would be a side-angle shot of still even more detail.
Ahh the Groucho Marxian mustache; if that doesn’t shout showmanship, I don’t know what else does. Considering these photos in light of the Wikipedia excerpt, it is all too clear. Bobby Valentine would be proud, Sacha.
