ARE YOU PREPARED FOR A BIT OF FOOTBALL?

Ever get that feeling like something's missing in your life. Well, there is, or, to be more accurate there was. Yeah, there was no Bitterness is a Fish You Can Catch last week! That's why your lives felt so empty last week. Not to worry, though, after a brief hiatus, "Bitterness" is back and stupider than ever! Well, maybe not. That's a pretty big task, but I will do my best.

Saints (-3) at Panthers: Okay, sure the Saints have lost their last seven road games, and they've only covered once in those losses, but ya know what? Streaks are meant to be broken. I guess. I mean eventually they all end, right? Well, Justin Beiber's streak of being loathed by me may never end,

but I think you get my general point. And if the streak is gonna end, what better time than now? Coming off a Sunday night trouncing of the high octane (love that phrase) Green Bay Packers and heading to face Carolina who has lost their last two games after a thrilling tie in Cincinnati, the time seems right...right?

Carolina doesn't scare me, per se, but I feel like they always have a big game in them...somewhere, deep down in places you don't talk about at parties.


If you get Cam Newton of like three years ago, I'd sway towards the Panthers, but that is not what we've had in 2014. That Cam could appear at any time, but without that you are looking at a Panthers offense that is so mundane it makes Neils Bohr look like the life of the party!

Worst. Metaphor. Ever.


Look, for all of the intents and purposes at our disposal, the Saints are a better team. Does that mean they'll definitely win? Well, no, not necessarily, but I like the odds of it happening and, I am right with this more than I am wrong, albeit by a slim margin. Saints 27-17
