Week 6- Stepped on a pop-top

With Jimmy Buffet owning the naming rights for Dolphin Stadium, the marketing department has taken the extra, completely over the top, step of playing his song “Fins” every time the home team scores. This got me thinking, “Why should the Dolphins monopolize the musical genius that is Jimmy Buffet.”

So in order to spread the gift of his artistry around, here are some suggestions of Buffet songs that other NFL teams can usurp and the perfect times they should blast them.

Volcano
Whenever Mike Singletary enters the locker at halftime when the 49ers are losing

A Pirate Looks at 40
When Brett Favre announces his retirement, again

Cheeseburger in Paradise
When JaMarcus Russell enters the field

The weather is here, I wish you were beautiful
When the Tampa Bay Buccaneers kick off

Why don’t we get drunk and screw
When Ben Roethlisberger scores…(in anyway)

Changes in Latitude, Changes in Attitudes
For Terrell Owens whenever another ball goes through his hands

Come Monday
Played at Vegas sports books for bettors looking to recoup all their Sunday loses on the Monday Night game.

Margaritaville
For all the Lions, Chiefs, Rams, Raiders, Bucs, Bills and Browns fans. It’s the place they need to go to endure their team.

With his soothing tunes playing in the background and under the influence of an undisclosed number of “Boat Drinks,” I have made my picks for Week 6.

My picks are in bold.

Chiefs +6.5 at Redskins
Texans +5 at Bengals
Browns at Steelers -14
Ravens at Vikings -3
Rams at Jaguars -10
Giants +3
at Saints
Panthers -3.5 at Bucs
Lions at Packers -13.5
Eagles -14 at Raiders
Cardinals at Seahawks -2.5
Bills at Jets -10
Titans at Patriots -9.5
Bears at Falcons -3
Broncos +4 at Chargers


Last Week: 10-4
Season: 40-36
