NFL Celebrity Final Four Picks!


During the NFL offseason, we’ll be asking various luminaries of the league establishment to join us in making picks for other prominent sporting events. It’s a day late, but here are the Final Four picks from of your favorite NFL players, coaches, broadcasters, and columnists. Their title picks are in bold.

Norv Turner:
Kansas
UNC
Ohio St.
Florida
NOTE: Turner’s bracket picked all 63 games to chalk.

Bill Simmons:
Texas A&M
Georgetown
Florida
Kansas
NOTE: Should these picks end up being erroneous, I already have an excerpt from Simmons’ next column about it: “When I look back, OF COURSE I should have taken UNC to win it all. In fact, I was ready to pick them. But, as usual, I outsmarted myself. Don’t you just hate when you’re too smart like I always am? Let me reanalyze the entire field in retrospect so that I look like even more of an arrogant prick.”

Najeh Davenport:

"Bacon Paste"

Well played, sir.

Anonymous said...

i'm calling shenanigans.

everyone knows the playmaker has "strippers" and "freebase" in his final four bracket

Boy Howdy said...

"i could do this all day"

Please do, these were fantastic.

Although I think that Peter King might have picked the barista working the early shift at the Starbucks in the St. Louis airport as his sleeper pick to go a few rounds deep into the tournament. Apparently the quintuple venti margarine mocha was superb.
