These 2016 NFL Season Picks are paranoid and frightened of foreigners such as Pittsburgh Steelers fans. They dress funny and have weird beliefs.<\/p>\n

Maybe the Eighth Amendment people can do something about this. Right now I am busy using the Fifth Amendment, or maybe it\u2019s a fifth of scotch.<\/p>\n

Russia, if you are listening – Can you find a way to make the Cleveland Browns great again?<\/p>\n

You may recall that last year, before the winner yelled, \u201cGet him out of here,\u201d I had declared my candidacy for the Republican nomination for Prognosticator of the United States of America.<\/p>\n

I thought I had a great strategy. I was going to out-crazy Donald Trump by picking the Cleveland Browns to win the Super Bowl.<\/p>\n

And while the Browns finished with one of the worst records in the NFL, I didn\u2019t have a chance once Trump insulted John McCain, the Pope, committed treason while looking at the camera, wondered aloud why he can\u2019t use nuclear weapons, tossed a baby out of a rally, and talked about the options of Second Amendment people.<\/p>\n

Even when I when I danced naked with kazoo-playing parrot standing on my head, CNN barely noticed. So I picked the Browns to win the Stanley Cup. Again, crickets.<\/p>\n

While I cheered for an orange-helmeted team, the orange haired demagogue won. He did have one good point about the Browns. They really have been losers.<\/p>\n

So I did what a losing candidate does – I grew a beard and went on vacation to Mexico. Hillary Clinton did this in 2008. But I digress.<\/p>\n

The point is that I lost all my passport when I was in Tijuana. It\u2019s a long story involving myself, Johnny Manziel, peyote, and an orange-haired mystic who told me, \u201cHave a taco bowl and don\u2019t rape anyone.\u201d<\/p>\n

I did what I was told because I was in a country, Mexico, with only one NFL game scheduled for the entire year. Obviously, I wanted to come to America for a better life. So I climbed the wall.<\/p>\n

\u2014<\/p>\n

This is a new year. and a new formula here at Whatzgonnahappen.<\/p>\n

After evaluating the rewards of writing this, it turns out that this is a political column with an interest in football\u00a0and an insane belief that the Cleveland Browns are connected to all things in the universe, and they will win every game.<\/p>\n

I recently discovered that only four people read this, and those are the voices in my head.<\/p>\n

So this year, the season picks are projected records. That is all.<\/p>\n

As for each week – only projected scores.<\/p>\n

Sorry, but I am busy making America great again. As you should be.<\/p>\n

\u2014<\/p>\n

As I was saying, I had to climb over a wall to get here.<\/p>\n

It was a beautiful wall, tremendous wall, believe me.<\/p>\n

And as soon as I got over the wall, I knew exactly whatzgonnahappen.<\/p>\n
