was on espn's site checking the lines on this weekends football games and found something amusing. This week, the game matchups were being compared to the most colossally awful movies of all time and low and behold there were 2 mst'd movies
Dallas at Washington (+1½)
"Manos: The Hands of Fate" (1966): Family makes a wrong turn and ends up in a Satanic hotel run by a crippled concierge. -- Yes, in this phenomenally awful piece of cinematic fare, the terrifying monster Torgo is just a guy with swollen knees. Just the sight of Torgo made folks uncomfortable and threw them off their game, which is why even if Clinton Portis can't play, just by standing on the sidelines he might creep out the Cowboys enough so that the Redskins can win.
Minnesota at Tampa Bay (-3½)
"Hobgoblins" (1988): A young security guard must chase down aliens with hypnotic powers. -- The Tampa Bay defense must chase down Adrian Peterson, who also has an uncanny knack of making defenders miss what is right in front of their eyes. The only thing is, the Vikings might have to chase down a refurbished Cadillac this week, and tackling him may hurt a lot.
