It is with a heavy heart that I’m back in town, because my college pick of the day (Bucky +3 over the mini-Wolves) made bank, and if I could’ve stuck around longer, my late picks (Illinois and Georgia) would have also made bank. Oh well, I’ll just have to keep on rolling after yet another 9-win week…
Minnesota (+6) @ Green Bay – There’s just too many points to give, especially with Rouse now starting.
Chicago (-3.5) @ Oakland – I hope the Black Tygrrrr enjoyed his Vegas trip; reality crashes in on him today. Sorry.
Detroit (pick’em) @ Arizona – I know the Lions suck on the road, but you gotta give the hapless Cards a point or two. On second thought, since the pros aren’t, you shouldn’t either.
Jacksonville (+5) @ Tennessee – The schedulers screwed the Jags this year; they’re the only team to take a 3-game road trip.
Denver (+3) @ Kansas City – Larry Johnson is not only out, but he’s out $7,500.
Buffalo (-3) @ Miami – Odds that the Deadfins finish 0-16 the same year the Pats break their 1972 record; pretty damn good.
Cleveland @ Pittsburgh (-10) – As long as the Steelers don’t come out in those awful uniforms again,….
St Louis @ New Orleans (-11) – Help a brother out; lay the lumber.
Atlanta @ Carolina (-3.5) – Since I’m giving shout-outs to the blogroll, Sister Toldjah will be happy today.
Philadelphia (+3) @ Washington – Like McNabb should’ve said last week, “We’re making sure the Boys win the NFC East.”
Cincinnati (+3.5) @ Baltimore – You may like/want/get the points, but the OldBrowns are too shell-shocked.
Dallas (-2.5) @ NY Giants – The bottom line from Hoffa says the G-men are fishing with him. Stat of the week from JammieWearingFool – the Giants are 4-14 coming off the bye.
Indianapolis (-4) @ San Diego – Battle of the funks. The Bolts have longer ones.
San Francisco @ Seattle (-10) – The Pacific Northwest is very hazardous to one’s health, and the Niners are anything but healthy.
Revisions/extensions (10:50 am 11/11/2007) – Almost forgot my ass-kicking over/unders. Go under the 38 in the San Fran/Seattle game and over the 41 at Lambeau.
