I do not generally bet on football. Reason being I just feel like I am being suckered in. I can see no reason why the Cardinals are not far bigger favorites over the Bills. I thought that the 4 point spread was a typo. So I see the Wiz has picked the Bills...... Since the picks are already in.... can you clue me in to your thinking? The Bills sucked the first 2 weeks. Their best wide receiver is out. Their second best corner is out. They fired their offensive coordinator. Their defense made Fitzpatrick look like a Brady/Manning combo... Arizona won by a blowout last week.

SOOPOO beat me too it. I was just about to post there is a LOT of love for the Cardinals. (15 picks, when you include Confidence Picks as 2 picks.)

Also a lot of love for the Raiders. (11 picks)

ZERO love for the Packers this weekend, giving that full 7 against the Lions. Note the Packers had lots of love just a week ago, with 15 picks.

There is also lots of love for the Broncos and the Bengals to go over. 6 picks. That's a lot of picks for an over/under selection.


Enjoy the games.

I hear you Soopoo and my Confidence Pick is a testament to my commitment...of course with Wiz going the other direction, I am likely on the wrong side of this one ;-)!

Wiz did pick all underdogs, so maybe his pick here is just following that strategy...

Soi this is a formula "auto-pick" ?

Is the election affecting team performance
Jets not doing to well
Most players are black and think Trump is anti black and a racist
Coach Rex Ryan is a huge Trump supporter
If he leads, will all the players follow?

Here is an interesting article I just found regarding the locker room and politics

http://thelab.bleacherreport.com/donald-trump-is-tearing-the-nfl-apart/?utm_source=cnn.com&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=editorial

"They had known each other for four years. Their wives talked on occasion. Their kids sometimes played together. They sat next to each other in team meetings and went to dinner several times per month. They often joked that politics were off-limits because of their disparate viewpoints. Then, after their first offseason team workout in May, the lineman revealed he would be voting for Trump—and everything changed.
The linebacker, a Clinton supporter, began finding excuses for not going to dinner. The families stopped talking. When the lineman confronted his now former friend, he recalls receiving a blunt response: I can’t be friends with anyone who would vote for Donald Trump. I’m sorry."
When somebody doesn't believe me, I could care less. Some get totally bent out of shape when not believed. Weird. I believe very little on all forums

Rex Ryan is the coach of the Bills, not Jets. Where are the lines for this week? Is Mission Mishing?

I do want to get it on record that I accidentally opened one set of Picks before sending my own because the PM Subject didn't initially indicate to me that was what was in the PM. In any event, I did not really see any of those Picks, I just saw that there were Picks.

My decent record this week bumped me out of the 50.0 % slot, which 12 weeks from now would get paid.

Looking at the results to date, I wonder if the eventual winner will be one of the current top 5 ranging from 65.2 to 72.0 percent winning records?

I've never been so happy to go 0-5, as I did this past weekend.

I told myself that if I couldn't go 6-0, or 5-1, then it would probably be best to lose all of the games... which is almost what happened! (I had one push.)

Another two or three bad weeks like this and I will be the heavy favorite for the You Suck award. :)


To answer your question, I most likely would want some pretty good odds if I were to bet against one of those current top 5 players not being the eventual winner.

I actually thought about which side to take on the games I picked and then reversed them all. I went 4-1-1. I think I'll continue this winning strategy because clearly it is working better than actually believing I know anything about betting ATS in NFL games.

I think I would do better picking NHL games....but likely that is a similar fantasy ;-)!!

In Week 1, Confidence Picks were a very respectable 9-4.

Since Week 2, Confidence Picks are 32-54.

Kudos to 10DollarBri. An excellent record to date. I am curious how he avoided the traps we all fell into the past few weeks.

Did anybody make money on this week's teasers?

I wouldn't call it a crazy week, but definitely a slightly unusual week when two +9 dogs both failed to cover after the Line had moved in favor of the dogs. If I recall, both the 49ers and the Bengals were only getting 7.5 as of late Saturday night, which is mainly why I picked the way I did.

Of course, some of that 49ers line move could have been misplaced faith in Kaepernick, who I really wouldn't have personally had that much faith in to begin with. I didn't really think about it that way, though, I was pretty strictly playing line move on those two picks.

I'm celebrating slowly climbing out of the basement to Middle Earth, and especially catching back up to Miplet, with whom I have a h2h sidebet.

Huge respect to 10dollabri, consistently staying at or above 70% for 6 weeks. Hope he's putting some.real br into his picks and making a bundle.

Me too, but my "winning" confidence pick killed me this week.

That's the problem. The wife forced me to back out of playing this year because she said that I couldn't win any boobies..................

I'm just glad you returned the last few days. Was hoping you were feeling better.

I have several booby jokes for you, but will not publish out of respect for your wife. :)
