NFL Week 12

Evil’s Picks and Results

Got 9 games, but gambling went into the crapper.

Noticed the Texans did their best to feed the kitties. But in the end, they finally cut them into steaks and roasted them. Today they will probably have some bigger kitties instead of turkey.

Since last week the prediction for the Superbowl has changed. Atlanta goes, Green Bay doesn’t. For the few weeks before that favor shifted ever so slightly from Green Bay to New England. Now the computer says the Pats will beat Atlanta.

My take:

There is finally a good bet. At least it’s a good one if you have nerves of silicon. Kansas City will cover the 10.5 spread by beating Denver. I’ll believe that one when I see it.

I blame the whoever wasn’t getting laid in the CIA sex scandal for everything that went wrong last week.
