It's that time again, folks. After months of anticipation, the NFL season kicked off tonight. I still don't know what happened, because I was recording the game on my DVR while Babcock and I recorded episode 13 on our computers.
In tonight's episode, we take on the lines for week 1 and make our picks against the spread. We disagree on about half of this weekend's picks. Babcock kept track, and he'll send those over to me tomorrow and I'll update this post so you can keep track.
After tackling the spread, we move on to some listener e-mail. How productive can Chad Ocho Cinco be? Why did Eli take so much heat for his predictable answers to some pretty loaded questions? In addition, we take on some pretty deep questions about our personal lives.
Please continue sending your questions to CNEpodcast@gmail.com .
Starting next week, we'll be recording every Wednesday night.
Enjoy week 1 everyone.
