Fridays with Artie Lange
Artie Lange's Football Picks October 2nd. 2009, 12:45pm
Artie Lange is one of our favorite comedians. He’s hilarious on the Howard Stern show, and even if you don’t have Sirius, then you’re probably familiar with his work on Letterman, Conan, Beer League, or, perhaps most famously, the Joe Buck Show. We spoke to him a few weeks ago about an idea that would blend two of his great passions: Sports and picking games. So each Friday this season, he’ll pick three NFL locks.
Last week: 3-0
Season: 7-2
Giants -9 at Kansas City. Because the Giants are my favorite team.
Broncos +3 vs. Dallas. Because they are playing the Cowboys.
Lions +10 at Chicago. Because they suck and I am a gambler.
Artie will be at the Rochester Auditorium Theatre Oct. 23 and Beacon Theater in New York for the New York Comedy Festival Nov. 6th.
We’ll end this post with a line Norman Chad always applied to his picks column: These picks are for recreational purposes only and should not be used as the basis for any actual cash wager.

Did Artie have Rio de Janeiro over Chicago?

Shanoff is wordy by comparison.

October 2nd, 2009 at 1:06 PM

October 2nd, 2009 at 1:07 PM
good to know it wasn’t just this post that was stinking up the room.

October 2nd, 2009 at 1:12 PM
Shanoff is simply wild.

Can you link to the audio?
October 2nd, 2009 at 1:18 PM
someone forgot to give this the one-liner’s gray background.
October 2nd, 2009 at 1:29 PM
Is his record impressive? Or does he just pick easy games?
October 2nd, 2009 at 1:31 PM
Honestly, only reason I read this post is too:
1) See what fun ways people will bash this post
2) See if there is any tj that might take off
October 2nd, 2009 at 1:31 PM
Come on guys, it’s not like he can stop running these and look like a dick to Artie, and it’s not like he can really criticize Artie for not bringing his A-game (or b, or c). Just let it slide.

cgb – go to sirius website. click on the FREE TRIAL – you get 7 days free. all you have to do is give an email addy. you could easily just create a new fake email each week and get sirius free. im sure some people do that (wink wink nudge nudge)
ruck – 7-2 against the spread picking 3 games a week. not bad so far.
October 2nd, 2009 at 1:32 PM
ummm, isn’t this why you gamble? You try to pick locks like the Giants and Bengals this weekend.
October 2nd, 2009 at 2:01 PM
I am guessing you regret letting Artie unleash his “comedy” on your site… and by comedy I mean “Giants -9 at Kansas City. Because the Giants are my favorite team.” Now if that isn’t fucking hilarious I don’t know what is.
October 2nd, 2009 at 2:15 PM
This makes me laugh.
October 2nd, 2009 at 2:57 PM
Next week can we make tge Artie have zero comments??? Tge best way to complain is with silence

Again, Money, your avatar confuses me. It makes me think I posted drunk or something and can’t remember.

Artie plead guilty to DUI yesterday from a July 2009 incident:
I post this because TBL refuses to even though he always bombards us with Artie/Stern info. He now has a relationship with Artie and thus doesn’t post this negative link about him.
/This is what happens when a blog starts to get big.
October 2nd, 2009 at 7:00 PM
He doesn’t post it because who gives a shit if Artie lang pleaded guilty to a DUI 4 months ago
October 2nd, 2009 at 10:29 PM
Didn’t see your earlier comment. Maybe I’ll just start posting jibberish late night to throw you off.
