Chucky Buckles’ Week 6 Football Picks

The Chuck Wagon, also known as Chucky Buckles’ season of picking football winners, is back on solid ground. Two weeks ago, after a terrible 7-5 week, questions abounded as to whether or not Chucky had what it took to maintain a solid 83% (or B-) average. Then last week he charged from the gate and finished 11-1, his best week this year! But Week 6 looms and the times, as they say, ‘they are a changin’. GRASS LAKE @ MANCHESTER: Chucky toyed with picking Manchester to spring the upset here, mostly because the Flying Dutchmen nickname is really cool. Then he learned that an old, old wooden ship has never been spotted in the Manchester area, so confusion set in. Also, Grass Lake has outscored everyone not named Michigan Center 161-14 this year. That sort of wrapped it up. PICK: GRASS LAKE  JONESVILLE @ HOMER: Homer has outscored the opposition 179-13 (36-3 average) in the FIRST HALF this year!

But try as I might, he wouldn’t budge. “We just want to keep it very simple and focused,” Galloway said. “Our goal is to be 1-0 each week- climbing just that one mountain. We have a pretty tough schedule and Coach Slater wants us only to concentrate on the next week’s opponent and the whole team has bought into that.” Galloway, a senior wide receiver and defensive back for the Mounties and a three sport athlete in football, basketball and baseball, did provide a little more insight. “You know, all of our goals are still intact despite these losses,” he said. “It would be awesome to make the state playoffs and the whole school and community would be excited to see it. This team would love for our legacy to be the first team to make it.” The Mounties started the year 2-0 with impressive opening victories over Hillsdale and Lansing Waverly before…
