Are You Ready for Some Football...



We have been away for sometime now but are back just in time for Football Season! John had the great idea (somewhat copied from John Michael Vincent from 1260 am The Drive and Channel 13 Sports) to have Cooper predict the outcome of each NFL football game by pulling out a ping pong ball with each team written on them. So I went a step further, with my creativity, and drew the names and logos of each team on a ping pong ball. It was quite tedious but turned out awesome. So we are now on Week #2. Cooper loves the ping pong balls and from a preschool developmental employee it is working on his fine motor skills! So far here are the outcomes: (the teams in ALL CAPS are the ones he picks)


Week #1

COLTS vs Jaguars
PATRIOTS vs Bills
Raiders vs CHARGERS
PACKERS vs Bears
STEELERS vs Titans
FALCONS vs Dolphins
Broncos vs BENGALS
VIKINGS vs Browns
SAINTS vs Lions
COWBOYS vs Buccaneers
RAVENS vs Chiefs
EAGLES vs Panthers
GIANTS vs Redskins
TEXANS vs Jets
SEAHAWKS vs Rams
CARDINALS vs 49ers

Cooper did pretty well his first week. He went 13 wins and 3 losses. I wonder how this weeks picks will hold up? Here are his predictions:
