Tennessee 10
NY Jets 12
Green Bay 6
Detroit 7
New Orleans 14
Carolina 2
Washington 13
Arizona 3
San Francisco 4
Buffalo 15
Denver 11
San Diego 5

Happy betting for me. God I am addicted.

The Football Scores...

Not a great first week. After a full Sunday of games it does not look as if I am going to repeat my winning season from last year. I was only able to pick 5 of 13 games for a total of 43 points. Now I had some close games (I lost the Giants by 1/2 point) but at the end of the day I sucked. Maybe next week will be better. I will let you know my standings. This might be a long year.

Are You Ready For Some Football?

Today is the day. The first full Sunday of NFL games. Last year, as most of you know, I came in first in our little NFL pool. I walked away with $650 and was very proud of myself for beating my husband and my brother. This year I am going to post my picks every Sunday so that you can see how I do. Just remember that for me there is no rhyme or reason. I do this for fun, I have my favorites and when in doubt if the team has an NC State alum I will pull for them. Also remember I am picking against a spread and I have to rank the teams based on my level of expectations (does this make sense?). For example: this week I rank the Sunday games from 16 to 4 based on which game I am most sure of and which I am least. So my #16 this week is the Giants who I expect to beat the Redskins by 6.5 or more. If the Giants win this game by more than 6.5 points I receive 16 points, make sense? So without further ado, here are my picks for the week. We will see what happens.

My Picks Points
Miami 4
Baltimore 5
Carolina 7
Cincy 12
Cleveland 6
Houston 15
Indy 13
New Orleans 9
Dallas 8
Arizona 14
NY Giants 16
Seattle 10
Green Bay 11

and here are the spreads that I had to use. Tell me what you think.
