Well, they beat the Saints, but left the Cardinals alone, I guess the Spanish Inquisition is over. All good things…

Here’s my take this week:

And Vegas;

There are no good bets this week.

Right about football entering the Twilight Zone last week. And now we appear to be firmly lost in the zone…

It would appear that not only did St. Louis expect the Spanish Inquisition, they brought guns. I think if I was a Cardinal, I’d run, cause I’m betting they’re not going to make the distinction between guy in a funny hat and the bird…

Here’s my take this week:

And Vegas:

There are no good bets this week.

Football seems to have gone off into the Twighlight Zone. I’m starting to think Kansas is going to the Superbowl. I wonder if the Land of Oz has a stadium big enough.

Last week sucked, although it probably sucked more for the teams who let me down. For instance, in Smokedland, Kansas City really came though. They scored an extra TD over my prediction. Apparently Smokedland’s offense missed the plane. Or, in this case, maybe they fell out of the plane.

Indianapolis had a major relapse, despite the seemingly successful operation earlier in the season to remove the team’s heads from their asses. In an embarrassing and extremely painful reverse operation, reminiscent of the Spanish Inquisition, The Saints put Indianapolis’ heads right back, helmet and all. Payton didn’t sit in the booth cause his leg hurt, he just didn’t want to get any blood on his suit. They say no one ever expects the Spanish Inquisition, but I bet St. Louis does…

Here’s my take this week:

And Vegas;

There are no good bets this week.

I was sure glad I didn’t live in Smokedland. I was expecting riots. Maybe there were but all of them failed to score…

Good week in predictions last week.  I’m finally back in the black on good bets.  I’ve been in the black for overall bets, which is still weird.  Sadly there are no good bets this week.

Here’s Vegas’ plan:

E.W.

I wish that one day the Panther’s get out of the mindset that they must lose to Atlanta.

I’m well in positive territory in terms of overall gambling, which is weird.  There is only one good bet today, Dallas is NOT going to score 24 points in cold cold Foxboro, take the under bet.

San Diego has replaced New England in the Superbowl and will lose to Green Bay.

Here’s Vegas’ take:

E.W.

The computer says Baltimore will face Houston in the playoffs, we get a preview today.

Here’s the picks:

Vegas:

There’s no good bets today.

E.W.

I need an extra 4 hours added to the day.

Well, good news for Indianapolis fans, the operation was successful. The teams heads have all been successfully removed from their asses. No word on how Manning’s operation went…

Not so good news for Minnesota. Getting beat by Detroit’s gotta hurt. Worse they failed to cover the spread even. And somewhere in Buffalo there are two missing defensive squads, fortunately for Buffalo they didn’t really need theirs.

I’m counting big on the recovery of Indy, they will cover the 10 point spread by beating Tampa, and that’s my one good bet for the week.

Vegas’ Plan:

E.W.

I can’t wait to see the Dallas game today. If the offense plays bad as they did Monday night, someone better check Romo to make sure he didn’t bring a gun on the field.

So much for positive territory in gambling. Of course, if my modeling is correct I should be down 3.20 on the dollar. Actually I’m down 4.80, which would be bad, if I were dumb enough to take even odds bets. At least I called the winner for 10 games.

This week the computer actually flagged 3 good bets, been a long time since that happened. The computer says Minnesota will not only cover the spread, but will stomp Detroit. My modeling doesn’t take into account injuries directly and I haven’t looked yet, but did Minnesota lose a star player last week? I didn’t even know they had a star player.

Then the computer says take the under bet in New England vs Buffalo, neither of these teams are going to do all that scoring.

Finally, and this one is suspect, it says Indianapolis will cover the 10 point spread against Pittsburgh by actually beating them. I guess that would depend on the team pulling their heads out of their asses and realizing that Manning was only 1/22 of the team. Granted he was a very good 1/22 piece but no where near the whole team.

Vegas lines:

E.W.

Ok after looking at the news, it would appear that the gamblers’ idea of Minnesota is, after getting beat by  a team that far outclasses them, then beat by a mediocre team, they’re done?  I’d put real money on my bet.

Got 9 of the games last week, but I’m 1.80 on the dollar for gambling, so I’ll call that a win.

My picks:

Vegas:

E.W.

What happened to Indianapolis last week?  Did they fire the whole team before game time?
