Money Line
We have a mixed message on Tennessee v. Houston, so we'll let that one go. And I couldn't find a line on Carolina v. the Giants. That leaves Minnesota, Jacksonville, Baltimore, Tampa Bay, Philadelphia, Arizona and Green Bay.
We don't mess with the money line formula because it has been our lifeline to success this season, but this week there is very little overlap between the money line and the spread. That's a little worrisome.
Pick Recap:
Point Spread
Ravens +3
Browns +7.5
Packers +5
Titans +2
Giants +3
Seahawks -3
Patriots -3.5
Jets -3.5
Chargers -7
Money Line
Vikings, $120
Jags, $105
Ravens, $125
Bucs $155
Eagles, $95.24
Cards, $150
Packers, $180
And we stagger into yet another week. Lots of spread picks again, because we're getting close to hail mary time. And I've picked the Giants again. Hail Mary, full of grace...

I like the added review of the 3 ring circus called Monday Night Football. I feel like I am watching the View (yes I said it) or Letterman, someone is always pitching a movie or book, and now pretending to know something about football. And watching the giddy school girls interview these “stars” is classic. If Mick was still alive he would have never let the Rock eat that last cheese steak.

You guessed it. Frank Stallone.

"Browns +7.5"
Jesus Christ.
I'm willing to reconsider my ideological opposition to waiting periods for handguns, just so Mazzotta doesn't do anything foolish... :-/

It's a final: Vegas 7.5, Browns 7

Oh, it's long past that stage RJ.
Although Rambo IV is coming... Charles Manson blamed the Beatles, maybe I could blame Stallone.

"Packers +5"
Are you kidding me?
Once the niners beat the packers crazy, you'll learn!

5-4 vs. the spread. Not great but I'm glad for one in the "W" column.
Looks like 6-1 on the money line. Wowie zowie! That's huge!

Great job!
I correctly picked a few 'dogs (Baltimore, Tennessee, Jacksonville, and Arizona), but I'm still at a miserable 7-8 for the week so far... :-/
