We’ve reached the finale Sunday of the 2018 NFL regular season, and well, I’m just sitting here stewing in disappointment.
Coming into the season, I had one goal for my picks: to finish at or above the .500 mark. I’ve never been good at predictions — I’m pretty much a walking jinx — and so I would’ve been more than satisfied by correctly picking 50 percent of this year’s games, and then I would try to slightly improve on that in 2019.
Through 14 weeks, I was cruising right along. I was at 101-100-7, doing just well enough to keep pace with my goal.
