Football season is upon us and with it is the annual Glenn Clark Radio Picks league. We continue the tradition of being held accountable for our flawed opinions. A familiar group re-enters the arena, no newcomers and all 12 men from a season ago holdover into 2025: Glenn, Griffin, Paul Valle III, Kyle Ottenheimer, Jon Proctor, Ken Zalis, Ryan Chell, John Keller, Jeremy Conn, Joe Serpico and James Revere.
James is our reigning champion, walking away with a little bit of cash, but the real purpose of this exercise is to avoid losing and coming in dead last. This year’s punishment will entail a play on the ‘24-hour game’ in which the loser will have to spend 24 hours in the establishment of one of our PressBox partners, and chances to shave off time by completing various tasks or consuming certain foods. And for our friend Andrew Stetka–who so badly wants out of the league–understanding of the rules, the only way out is to win the league, or SPECTACULARLY avoid losing.
A refresher on how the game works, the gang will select the nine most compelling games of the week’s football slate and make their picks against the spread, three College Football games, six NFL games.
The Ravens are back so let’s dive into it along with the rest of the NFL Week 8 slate!
