EDMONTON - Edmonton Oiler Gilbert Brule and his girlfriend picked up an unusual hitchhiker in West Vancouver on Tuesday ? U2 frontman Bono.

Brule and girlfriend Kelsey Nichols were driving to a park to walk Bella, their German shepherd, on Tuesday afternoon near the West Vancouver Yacht club when they spotted a couple of hitchhikers on the side of the road.

Brule, watching out the window, was sure one of them was Bono.

A Response To Will Pat Riley Take Over Tomorrow??

Ok.. I disagree that everyone deserves the blame even though that is the general perception. An idiot coach that wins is NOT better then a Brilliant coach that loses (For the Record I don't think Spo is "Brilliant", but at least very good) ... But on Monday Morning after a tough loss (or 4 of them) "Everyone" is to blame...

Coach deserves the least as he is just drawing up a game plan. Game plan maybe rock solid, but if the players fail in execution, how can that be everyones fault?

The implication is that the players need the...

[B]GB @ Phi -1,-2,-3 O/U 46.5[/B]

The odd line with about an hour to do reflects the fact that Whatever side you're on.. You're getting the line you want... Pinny Is as low as -1, and BoDog -3 ... more on this later..

The Pack are in this game despite losing 3 of 4 after they were 7-3... Forcing them to win their last 2 to get into the playoffs... All in all the Pack have just ONE really good game/half played in their last 4, and that's literally the 2H vs the Giants... It's not exactly inspiring confidence in...

Drew Brees never plays bad outdoors...


4) [B]Weather in Seattle[/B]... It's Rainy... Relatively Cold... And so far the expected Weather forecast is - SURPRISE - Cloudy, rainy, and a high of about 40... Last year NO played Both games up until the Bowl at home in the dome...

In fact, the LAST time NO played in a significant game that being Outdoors had any effect... Dec 11, 2008.. A night game in Chicago that started in 28 degrees (F), 60% Humidity - They lost 27-24 .. Brees was 24-43 for 232 yards - 2TD's and 2 INTs...

Before that... Dec...

The game was in the FN BOOKS... what part of that is hard to understand... forget the pace.. the missed layups, and everything... IT WAS BOOK!

That's what makes these beats harder to swallow for those trying to make us, on the wrong side "feel better"... However you cap a game, whatever the "right" side is... when you are on the WINNING end of a game that is about to go BOOK... and some act... particularly a ridiculous move by...

Thanks J -

I figure that is always the worry when the playoffs start... Field Position type of games that teams who just weeks ago were opening up the playbook, decide that they are going to just stick to a basic strategy to start, feel out the opposition, exchange a few field goals to start... and the OVER is f'd...

But look at last year... Same scenario with the Jets in Indy... (But Colts D was better)... Game starts out with 0 in Q1... 30! in Q2 on route to a 30-17 Over...

Also look at recent Jet Early starts...

pretty clear most cloud their judgement because of the past in this place... I like the bet... I'm not blaming anyone if I lose... It's not a steam play.. It has clear value... If NO wins by 30.. good for them.... I just think it will be tougher than most people think... 4 inches of Snow in Vancouver, which likely means snow this week in Seattle... at worst cold and humid... I've also pointed out NO has lost their last THREE games in below average weather, ALL with BREES having big numbers, but BIG PICKS.... one against a 7-9 Bears...
