2-1 this weekend on the underdog picks. Thanks, Mike Leach.

6-3 yesterday after the Bucks finally decided to cover. Then #18 from Akron, forever known as Stone-hands Jackson, dropped a dime on a seam route.
The Ga tech game blew the under by 3 points on a last minute turnover. Less than 7 points away from being 8-1 and a pretty epic Saturday.

Sitting at 24-10-1 overall, by my count. Still have a lot of action going on today.

Went in on

WSH v BUF - Under
CIN v PIT - Road dog. That's back to back weeks Cincy. You OWE me after what happened last sunday.
Chargers v KC - Over
Raiders v MIA - Raiders cover at -3
DAL v PHI - 'Boys cover at -3
Rams v TB - Over
NYJ v DEN - Under
ARZ v JAX - Cardinals cover at -7
MIN v SEA - Over
GB v SF - Road dog. Hoping Rodgers keeps up the big mo and the San Fran running game comes to a halt with all the injuries. Niners offense didn't look good last week at all.
CLE v CHI - Under
ATL v NYG - Over
Balt v DET - Over


9 of 13 would be HOT. Biggies being the CIN and GB road dog wins.

Lando had the race won when a rain squall blew in on the third to the last lap and he spun off the track.

That 500 would have salvaged my entire season. My weekly nut and season end bets would all be with house money, and I'd have pocketed around 150. Instead, I lost another 50 this weekend, so I'm 121 in the hole after week 3.

Knowing absolutely nothing about that particular enterprise, you have my sympathies buddy. Better days are ahead.

Man, I'd have preferred to have had him retire with a mechanical problem in the first 10 laps than to have it ripped away at the last moment. Even Lewis Hamilton said after the race that there was no way he was overtaking Lando without the rain squall--the Mercedes team looked at the radar and rolled the dice and had him come in for wet tires a couple of laps earlier while McLaren bet that the rain would hold off for another ten minutes, and that ended up being the difference.

What you're saying is that Dick Goddard would have made all the difference in the world here...?

My walk away points for the weekly nut are either down 500 or up 1000, so after Week 4, I'm still well within that range to keep playing the rest of the season. I just need a big score to get above water. Lando is going to get his first victory this year, but I don't know if I'll see 25:1 again. Other than that, I'm going to keep plugging combo bets on Ohio State (they're bound to cover one sooner or later) and 3-team parlays.

I think I have a healthy handle on things. It's not like I'm playing with the level of money where they're going to force me to go play minor league baseball for a couple of years.

I'm looking at Nevada Reno over the potatards, Saban to stick his fist up Joey Freshwater's ass, and I'll do my usual "take my money, please" bets on Ohio State (they have to cover eventually, right?). I'm not sure whether to touch the Cheese-tsun game. And I'll bet on the two McLaren drivers again.

Pissed I didn't hit the WV v OK game harder. Saw that coming.

A little heads up would have been nice. I just presume that Big 12 = no defense. The over sounded pretty straight forward to me.


A couple early games I'm looking at this week and will watch tape on to see how I feel.

Virginia > Duh U
Maryland > Iowa

And could Kansas State be the darling and pull it off for me again this year VS Okie at home?

Up and down on Saturday. That INT return that MSU got tackled on inside the 20 was a heartbreaker.

5-3 but parlay had all 3 losers in it! What a strange day.

Sunday was ok ended up lucky. some reason got a bug up my arse to bet the NL Central ML on a small parlay early and gave me a Sunday boost.
