Bad Presentaton

I hate meetings!  Especially meetings that consist of bad presenters and/or presentations.  I just sat through a 4 hour pupil activity validation meeting in which 6 speakers read a power point to me one after another.  If you are going to use power point to speak in front of a group of people, don't insult your audience by reading to them.  Put the main points up there, and then at least act like you are an authority on the subject by explaining it to them in your own terms.  Nothing says boredom quite like a 4 hour power point being read to you by awful speakers. 

Ok, good to get that out.  Now for the complete opposite of boredom, it's time for the week 9 picks.  After sitting through such a bad presentation this morning, 'bad presentation' is the theme of the week.  I'm picking against teams in which the product they put on the field is like watching a 4 hour power point.  

Duke @ Virginia (-7)
I like Cavman much more than a Blue Devil.  

Mich. St @ Minnesota (+4)
Watching Minnesota play Ohio State wasn't much better than the power point.  I love the Spartans here.   

Penn St @ Northwestern (+17)
Joe Pa's troops look like they are clicking, and the Wildcats are just bad.  

Ga. Tech @ Vandy (-12)
Sticking with my hot shooter... press the bet please.  Tech rolls.

Season:  21-13-0

Until next time,
