"This is it.

(This is it!)

This is life, the one you get,

So go and have a ball!

This is it!

(This is it!)

Straight ahead, and rest assured,

You can't be sure at all!

So while you're here?  Enjoy the view!

Keep on doing what you do!

Just hold on tight, we'll muddle through

One day at a time!

So up on your feet!  (Up on your feet!)

Somewhere there's music playing!

Don't you worry none --

We'll just take life as it comes ...

One Day at a Time! 

(One Day at a Time!)

One Day at at Time!

(One Day at a Time!)

One Day at a Time!!!!!!!!!! ....."

(Note: I actually love the remake on Netflix.  I just despise the original, previously designated as the worst television show of all time by, well, me.)

* Dolphins (+7 1/2) 28, at Colts 20.

* at those people (+3) 31, Steelers 30.

* at Vikings (-3) 41, Packers 30.

the turkey day picks

Just to get on the record. 

Rest of Week 12 picks (and other regular column things) coming by early morning Sunday.

* at Lions (+3 1/2) 31, Bears 24.  Don't count the Lions out yet.  Next week (vs Rams) is their toughest game left.  Their last four after that: at "Super" Cardinals / vs Bills / vs Vikings / at Packers.  And we have seen them rally from 3-6 to a wild card berth before (1995). 

* at Cowboys 24, Redskins (+7 1/2) 21.  Way closer than you think it will be.

* at Saints 31, "Shane" Falcons (+13) 24.  This line is more drunk than my mom and I combined will be come kickoff.  And we started almost 90 minutes ago on the mimosas.  It is patently absurd and utterly ridiculous.  This is the "Shane" Falcons season.  They'll fight to the bitter, kitchen sink losing end.

To you and yours, all the best this turkey day.
