Big game for the Fire tonight. Playoffs on the line. Predictions, please.

I predict I’ll try to care, and yet once again I won’t.

Geez, Mrs. O’Leary’s cow has scored more goals in the last three weeks.

Hamlett and crew survive … and take the cup.

No predictions. I don’t do that.

“Someone” will cut the power at approximately 8:21. Don’t tell anyone I told you.

What would be your strategy as a soccer goalkeeper?

Jet pack.

Above all else: Keep ball out.

Chew Big Red. That’s what Jon Busch does.

Keep the ball out of the net, whatever it takes.

Delete all the other players. That’s what I do on FIFA 10.

Cristobal Huet is to the Blackhawks as …

… Joe Biden is to Barack Obama, hopefully.

… your sister is to Sigma Chi Delta.

… Dr. House is to his patients. (A tad “off” yet highly skilled.)

… Jay Cutler is to the Bears.

… Jon Busch is to the Fire. You might call him a Firewall.

How surprised are you that Kyle Orton and the Broncos are 6-0?

I’m making a Macaulay Culkin face right now.

Not as surprising as Martin Landau and the Vikings going 6-0.

Very. I thought the neckbeard was his problem, but he’s winning with it!

I’m not really. I am sure he really wanted to prove he was a better quarterback than what he showed here.

Totally. All known computer simulations had him throwing for 16 yards and 49 picks this year. A little off.

How can the L.A. Angels come all the way back to beat the N.Y. Yankees?

Get the umps off the Yankees payroll and on theirs.

Danny Glover’s apparition needs to appear as an angel, preferably in the outfield.

Duh. Don’t lose.

They can’t — no chance.

Resistance is futile. You humans will all learn that one day — soon.
