November 8, 2015, Queens, NY Last week, hip-hop icon Kool Moe Dee returned to the throne with a blistering 11-3 record unseating Boston’s Own, John Payant (J-Pay), who won four straight weeks. Newcomers Vincent Davis and Jerald Hoover went 10-4 and 9-5 respectively. Mike Hill of Fox Sports went 8-6, and PureSportsNY reporter, BronxBorn went 7-7.
This week our six experts agree on three of the thirteen games. But where they disagree, they disagree. J-Pay disagrees with each of his fellow experts on four games, and he boldly stated that, “I’m coming to reclaim the crown.” Vincent Davis felt he got burnt in the Giants game last week and that he should have been tied with Moe Dee for first. He has a chip on his shoulder and the attitude to boot. Jerald Levon Hoover is quite confident in his picks, and BronxBorn is looking for redemption.
Coming in for Mike Hill is none other than football writer extraordinaire, Bad Barry Holmes. Known for his “Take No Prisoners Picks” he’s definitely the wildcard of the bunch. He disagrees with Moe Dee on eight games, J-Pay on five, Vincent Davis on seven, Hoover on five, and BronxBorn on seven. Bad Barry is looking at first place or last.
This brings us to Kool Moe Dee. He has a target on his back—a big one. His margin for error is very slim if he wants to remain on the throne. He disagrees with Vincent Davis and Bronx Born on only one game. That means he’ll either beat one or both of them or he’ll lose to one or both of them. No ties. Moe Dee’s arch rival, J-Pay, disagree on five contests, and Moe Dee and Hoover disagree on three.
It’s going down, and so are some of our experts. See their picks below.
