Finally the NFL
playoffs are here and the Wild Card round gives us 4 pretty
decent games to watch. Cincinnati at
Houston and Detroit at New Orleans on Saturday while the Sunday
games are the Falcons at Giants and Steelers at Broncos. The
winners will go on the road next week to play the top 2 seeds that
have a bye, so in the AFC the Patriots and Ravens with the NFC's
Packers and 49ers will have a distinct advantage for the best NFL
weekend of the year - the Divisional round. As always tickets
and packages remain available for all of the playoffs and Super Bowl. Predictions
- Bengals, Saints, Falcons, Steelers all win.

Sports on the Tube this
Weekend
NFL
Playoffs (Sat & Sun NBC/Fox/Cbs)
Cotton
Bowl Kansas St vs Arkansas (Friday 8PM Fox ) - This is a great
matchup in the legendary bowl game that now takes place in Jerry
World (New Cowboys Stadium). Should be a great game featuring two
teams that were in the top 10 most of the year. Prediction: K St
27, Arkansas 31.
PGA Tournament
of Champions (Golf Channel 5:30PM) - The first golf tournament
of the season!! Despite not having Tiger or Lefty, plenty of good
names will be competing for the first trophy of the year. Plus, you
got to love sitting on the couch watching golf taking place in
luscious Hawaii - spring is just 3 months away, but more
importantly so is the
Masters.
NHL Washington Capitals vs San José
Sharks (Sat 10PM) - 4 wins in a row and after a lengthy 4 day
break the red hot Caps visit the factory of sadness called San Jose
HP Pavilion where they haven't won in forever. That ends on
Saturday, Caps win 4-2.
NBA Lakers vs
Clippers (Sat 1030PM NBA TV) - the battle of LA as Kobe and his
Lakers try top put "the new hip kids" Clippers back in their place
as the second best NBA team in the city.
Have a great weekend, unless you are a penguins fan
