This week, in the interest of seeing just how much of my bookie’s daughter’s college education I can be held fiscally responsible for, I am making three picks at $50 a piece. Home teams in capital letters.
SAINTS (+5.5) over Falcons
This one just doesn’t feel right. Why would the Falcons be favored by less than a touchdown against the lowly Saints? I mean, the Saints were just raped by the struggling packers? This one makes no sense. It’s too good to be true. Vegas knows something. I’m taking the underdog here.
Giants (+3.5) over COWBOYS
This one just doesn’t feel right in a completely different way. Is Vegas trying to tell me that Parcels can cut through that Giants Defense as long as he’s in Dallas? I mean, I know Eli Manning is young and all but what do the Giants have to do to get a little respect this year? Win the Super Bowl? Anyway, again I take the underdog.
Chargers (-2) over RAIDERS
I’m going with momentum on this one. The Raiders are coming off a bye week. I have this weird feeling that in a game like this, with the Raiders at home, penalties will be the difference. And the Raiders are the best at penalties.
Total Record 3 – 5
Total Earnings: -$97
