This marks year three for the Horseshoe. The 'shoe has a new look and a new attitude. The changes can be
summed up in two words: football haiku. The two were made for
each other. Both use speed, grace, and force. Both capture
moments from the ridiculous to the sublime. Most importantly,
both are just plain fun. So, this year, instead of lengthy
analysis, each week you will find 5-10 haiku, each dealing with
some aspect of the upcoming game. Silly? Well, yes. But hopefully the new Horseshoe will give fans a different perspective on
each game.
I welcome your submissions. They are loads of fun to
write. I am using the 5-7-5 form, meaning the haiku should
consist of three lines, the first line being five syllables
long, the second being seven syllables, and the third five.

In addition to the haiku, every week, I'll pick winners for
the full slate of NFL games. I finished last season picking 72%
of the winners. Jim Conway, my Dad, is
returning this year to try and put me back in my place. See
