If there's one thing that I've learned throughout the years, it's that you have to do exactly the opposite of what Peter King says. This especially applies when the man attempts to pick winners in the NFL.
Back when I was writing over at BlownCoverage, I called this "the Peter King curse". You basically take a bad-ass curse and you multiply it with the amount of times that Adrian Peterson fumbles. In the end, it morphs into an even bigger disaster.
The most recent example of the Peter King curse was his Chicago Bears Super Bowl pick. (Diabetes has nothing on this shit huh, Jay????) However, it looks like Charlie the Tuna has really outdone himself this time.
The screenshot above comes courtesy of The Big Lead. It's the result of the Media Accuracy Rankings, a system where members of the media are ranked based on the accuracy of their pre-season predictions. Before this season started, 72 members of the media made their predictions and not surprisingly, Peter King came in dead fucking last.
Yes sir, the man that makes stupid amounts of money by writing about football failed miserably yet again. And while I know that pre-season predictions are basically a crap shoot, it just amuses me to see so much consistent failure from the leading writer in the business.
Another brilliant performance Pete. Keep raking in all that money. You deserve it....
