Evil’s Week 4 Picks and Bets

Let’s talk about my picks last week. I got 7. Shut up.

Well, I did great on gambling, except of course, for the one bet I said was worth taking. If Jacksonville did pull their heads out of their asses, then it would appear that Seattle drop-kicked them right back up there. Despite that, I’m up 240% overall.

In the true failure category the computer is predicting Chicago to go all the way to get stomped by the Pats in the Superbowl, but it predicts Chicago losing to Pittsburgh. Da Bears had other plans and redecorated the Steelers stadium with their players.

My perfect games were all blowouts that I didn’t predict, except for the Jets game which I nailed. Continue reading →

2013-14 Season Week 3 Results

Well it wasn’t a bad week. 56% over all for the week and 52% for the season. Better than 50% means I’m still winning. And I did do better than some of the ‘professional’ pundits who are supposed to know more than I do.

There were some games that really made ya scratch your head though. Come on, there was some twilight zone things going on.

How in the world did Carolina Panthers not only win over the Giants, but shut them out?! Did New York forget to get on the plane or something?! WTH! Continue reading →

2013-14 Season Week 2 Results

Well I had a much better week in week 2! I went from a 32% win ratio in week 1 to 69%. Yeah!!

So I lost 5 of the weeks 16 games. Carolina didn’t win my wild card pick, but come on, that was a long shot to begin with. So I’m not feeling too bad about that.

I am thrilled with Seattle’s performance over San Francisco though. Which brings up the weather. Wow!

The dangerous lightning in Tampa Bay was matched by the dangerous lightning in Seattle. Not to mention the rain delay and rain interruption in Chicago for the Nascar race. It sure made Sunday a very long day!  Continue reading →

Evil’s Week 2 Picks

I picked 12 of the games last week, 75% is not bad. So I guess I shouldn’t complain. Oh but I am going to complain. Let’s start with Baltimore. Yeah I picked Denver to beat them. But I picked them to cover the 7.5 point spread, unfortunately it appears that their D never made it back from the Superbowl.

Up until the Miami game, I was at 100%. Of course it’s Miami and Cleveland, hard to tell which loser will lose the most. I guess it was Cleveland’s turn.

Despite the good numbers on raw picks, I managed to start the year down 10% on gambling, not that I would have put real money on any of the bets last week. Continue reading →

2013-14 Season Week 1 Results

Well I said my first week picks were never very good and Week 1 proved that to be true. So let me say I don’t mind losing the pick for the Titans since they’re my 2nd favorite team. I was born in Tennessee so it’s awesome when they win. But I was raised outside of DC and I was disappointed my Skins lost. Course they were playing against our little Prince’s favorite team so it wasn’t a total loss. Yeah Eagles.

So here’s my results from the first week of NFL Football. Continue reading →

2013-14 Season Week 1

Meh. Sadly all the team fanboys are all still broke from 2008 so there are no good bets to take, nothing but safe sane money in Vegas. There appears to be one scheduled ass whoopin by Indy over Oakland.

My computer is predicting one we’ll be watching, Pittsburgh over Tennessee by 8 points. Hope I’m wrong there.

My take: Continue reading →

Spring’s Week1 Picks

Well it’s that time of year again. Yeah! Seems like it’s been a very short summer. Probably because around here, it’s either been raining or too cold to get into the lake, it seems like we barely got summer at all. Even today we had weather from “The Day After”. I’m not sure how it can be Sept. 4th, with a high of 83, lo of 59, yet it’s 38 in our neighboring town of Milford. I think the Weather Bug flew into a refrigerated or something.

But that doesn’t have much to do with Football season does it?! I’ve never been good at picking the first games of the season. My picks for Week1 are based on nothing but my gut instinct and how I perceive finished last year. So if you’re using my picks for your football pool (as some have told me they do), I’ve warned you first.  😉 Continue reading →
