And so we’ve come to the end of our first season doing the TMQ Watch, with the final TMQ of this season: the annual bad predictions review.
No, we said the bad predictions review. After the jump…

TMQ watch: December 7, 2010.
Tuesday, December 7th, 2010What’s in store for us in this week’s exciting TMQ column? Let’s take the shiny wrapping paper off and see, shall we? (As a side note, at least TMQ doesn’t have a giant bow on the top. Speaking of which, has Lexus stopped doing the “December to Remember” commercials? I haven’t seen one this year. Kia, yes; Lexus, no. Wonder what that says about the economy. But I digress.)

Tuesday, November 2nd, 2010Somebody asked me last week, “Why do you do this?”
“This” meaning the TMQ Watch, not the Safety Dance:
It isn’t an unfair question. As I explained in the very first TMQ Watch,
Sometimes, Easterbrook does good work; he spent much of last season discussing the NFL’s response to head trauma among pro athletes, and I felt he was right on target. Sometimes, he uses his column to argue for things like increased Federal vehicle mileage requirements, and I think someone needs to respond to those arguments. Sometimes, he uses his column to go off on various SF TV shows for their lack of plausibility. And sometimes, Easterbrook just goes completely off the damn rails.
I realize that may not be the best possible explanation, but look at it this way: I haven’t found anyone else who’s doing responses to TMQ, and the comments section on ESPN.com almost certainly inspired an XKCD comic. Somebody has to do it; why not me? My regular readers who don’t care about sports, or Easterbrook’s sometimes eccentric beliefs, can skip over these entries. For my irregular readers, I recommend Ex-Lax; Dr. Pepper and, believe it or not, Cherry Coke Zero are also helpful.
Shall we begin?
