Week 2 CFB Expert Predictions

Week 1 was an unmitigated disaster for my college football picks. Most importantly for me, though, Arizona’s U-G-L-Y loss to BYU showed too many flaws for me to pick them for much more than a six win team in 2018. Optimistically I’m going to give them a shot in Houston this week but my head […]

The Cohen’s Corner 2018 NFL Predictions

My grandfather always used to say: “I may not always be right…but I’m never wrong.” In the case of my season-long (and weekly football picks), unfortunately that isn’t the case. Last year I picked the Patriots to run the table at 19-0…and then they lost Week 1 to the Chiefs. This year I’ll hold off […]

The best time of year is back…it’s FINALLY college football season…and once again I’m thrilled to have the expert panel of my buddies Jon Bell, Steve Malina as well as ABC15’s Shane Dale to make our weekly picks. For our guest picker each week, I’ll have a 1580 The Fanatic personality and this week, I’m pleased […]

Cohen’s Corner 2018-19 College Football ‘Expert’ Predictions

One of my favorite things to write on this blog is my weekly college football picks. Last year my buddies Jon Bell and Steve Malina made picks each week…but we’re pleased to add a fourth full-time picker, Shane Dale from ABC15, who knows a few things about college football and especially the UofA-ASU rivalry. Next […]

Four Downs, 7/27: A handful of Bold Predictions for the NFL in 2018

With training camps underway, here’s a four pack of NFL predictions that some of you may agree with and others…well…not so much: FIRST DOWN: The New England Patriots WILL NOT make another Super Bowl with Bill Belichick and/or Tom Brady. How to describe the Patriots’ offseason – I don’t know, does complete and utter disfunction […]

2018 Pac-12 Football Predictions: Washington runs away with the North but the South should be fun

Since Fall camp is right around the corner and with it the best time of the year approaching, it’s time to break down how I believe the Pac-12 conference will shape up in 2018. Below I’ll project each team’s record (overall and in-conference) and give a bold prediction (at least I hope so) for each […]

My NBA Mock Draft – The Top-16 Picks (with projected trades)

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again…the best part of the NBA season is the draft. The regular season, with the exception of the occasional notable game is BORING and PREDICTABLE. The playoffs were thoroughly BORING and predictable. Last year I wrote this in my draft column about the 2017-18 season: For now […]

Friday, June 15th Quick Hitters: Arizona Sports Teams Edition

I haven’t written a Quick Hitters column in month so time to bring it back this time with an Arizona sports-only theme! -First, let me commend the Diamondbacks for turning things around quickly after it seemed like their season was going in the absolute dumpster. It also helped that Paul Goldschmidt hit .620 last week. […]

Arizona Wildcats Football: Pre-Preseason Game-By-Game Predictions for 2018

I wrote a similar column to this one last year, when I first debuted the blog…and while I was WAY off (Arizona went 7-5, not 5-7), at least I got two things correct…that Rich Rodriguez wouldn’t be the Wildcats’ head football coach come 2018 and that “Arizona football will look a lot different in 2018.” […]

The Suns Got The 1st Pick…Now What?? My Early NBA Mock Draft Top-10

I’ve always believed that history is a good predictor of the future. In the case of the NBA Draft Lottery, in 2018, that went out the window. Apparently the “Curse of the Coin Flip” is no more. In 1969, the Bucks beat the Suns by a flip of the coin for the #1 overall pick. […]
