RANDOM DAVE THOUGHTS
Dave Carney 9/29/2020 1. Kansas City Chiefs (up from 4)It’s hard to know where to start with the Chiefs. Last week after a “disappointing” road victory over the Los Angeles Chargers, the Chiefs had slipped to Number 4 in my rankings. The Super Bowl champs looked OK through the first two weeks of the season, […]

Dave Carney 9/28/2020 Well, the Milwaukee Brewers have made their franchise record 3rd consecutive playoff appearance, but lets face it, a 29-31 team in the POST SEASON isn’t exactly what you’d expect to see. But hey, it’s 2020 and that means EVERYTHING is up for grabs. Well, almost everything except pitchers being able to hit, […]

Dave Carney 9/22/2020 1.Baltimore RavensAll the Ravens had to do to keep themselves at Number 1 in my rankings was to win against Houston this Sunday.

How about the continued development of last year’s MVP Lamar Jackson (20-25, 275 yards 3TD’s 0 Ints)? Looking for weapons on the outside…well they’re covered there with “Hollywood” Brown (5 […]

Dave Carney 9/11/2020 When I started talking about my crazy, stupid, always partly wrong “football matrix”, listener Tom said it sounded more confusing than the Matrix movie itself. He was correct.

Uh-oh, I think I’ve seen this movie before. Hope, optimism, faded, with the twist of an ankle and a ‘simple twist of fate.’ On Sunday, Giannis Antetokounmpo sprained his ankle in Game 4 against the Miami Heat. In 11 minutes, he scored 19 points on 8 of 10 shooting. Eleven minutes of a game, in […]

Dave Carney 9/8/2020 In Michael Jordan’s REAL final season (with the Wizards) he served up some truly fine performances. For those who weren’t around, or can’t recall just how good a near 40 year old Mike was, YouTube that stuff son! It wasn’t his performance on the actual court that stole the show in MJ’s […]
