Another Mushy Friday

I know that most folks really love to see it snow the way it has this morning. Big fluffy flakes and not sticking.

I have been told it started about 4.00am and has continued for a good three hours without much consequence other than a wet road.

This is the 13th week of the football season and have we had more than two Fridays that the sun shined all day without any perspiration?

We have had two games moved to Monday. Last week we played in the rain but for the most part it has rained every Friday this year and in most cases cleared off by afternoon.

The forecast today is clearing by lunch time with a high today of only 42. Sounds and feels like football weather to me.

There are only eight teams left playing in the eastern 3-A bracket and last week I picked all eight games. Not that hard when most of the games the winners were double digit favorites before they started.

Looking at this weeks games:

Eastern Alamance is making the trip east to Hertford County and the Bears are a five point favorite.

Southwest Edgecombe travels to Kinston where SWE is a five point favorite.

Washington already this year a ten point loser at home to West Craven is a 20 point dog at West Craven.

J F Webb is a 24 point underdog to the Gryphons.

The one pick that I don't understand is Dudley is only an 18 point favorite over NEW-6 third place Fike.

Thats what the computer people think is going to happen tonight and as the saying goes "That is why they play the games"

Air time on am1390 will be as close to 7.00pm as possible. Gates open at 6.00pm. Remember that there should be a hugh crowd tonight so it will take awhile to get everyone through security.

GO GRYPHONS!!!!!
