Alright gang, we shrugged off a slow start in Week 1 to finish with a respectable 10-6 mark. The good news is that Week 1 is the most difficult series of games to predict all season, and we weathered that storm with a cool .625 winning percentage (Vegas also notched a .625, if you're keeping track).
I'm happy to go stride-for-stride with the bookies, but I think we can do better. In hopes of generating even greater success, I'm presenting my Week 2 picks in the form of that most noble poetry: the haiku.
Picks after the jump.
