I actually forgot to bet on the Phillies (and on Jimmie Johnson) somehow. But I still enjoyed the game.
I went 4-2 for NFL bets yesterday (added in the Saints right before game time). |

OK, here's 2 for this week.
Jets -6.5 at Oakland Logic: Jets cannot lose another game before playing Miami next week, and despite what the Raiders did (or Philly didn't do) last week, Rex Ryan's defense should befuddle JaMarcus Russell. Bills +7 at Carolina Logic: OK, I admit it. I gravitate toward dogs in interconference games between mediocre teams. In addition, Thomas Davis, the Panthers best run stopper, will be way less than 100% IF he plays at all, and the Bills can run. The Bills can also rush the QB, and Jake Delhomme needs things to be perfect not to suck. ![]()

I almost forgot to make some bets this week. Let's see, I'm gonna go with:
Chargers -5.5 vs. Chiefs Packers -9 vs. Browns Vikings +6 vs. Steelers Saints -6 vs. Dolphins Falcons +5 vs. Cowboys Eagles -7 vs. Redskins Also, Jimmie Johnson will win Martinsville today, but the odds are just terrible. Betting $10 to win $25 in a field of 43 drivers on a short track? I can't do it. Obv betting 6 NFL games after 2 minutes of looking at the lines, I'm more betting for fun that anything, but those are my picks for this week. |

I went 4-2 again this week AND won my 7 team (straight up, not ATS) parlay. Woot!
My rarely used (just for-fun) sports betting account now has a balance big enough that I think it's worth cashing out some for the first time in a long time. I'm petty sure I only ever deposited once, way back in 1997 and I've only made a few withdraws, but it's pretty cool to still be running on that same money. |

This was my favorite way to bet when I got started in 1997. I'd basically pick the biggest favorites of the week (skipping any that I thought had good shots of being upsets, like this week when I skipped the Giants playing the Cardinals (I think the Giants were favored). It's amazing how much the odds add up when they multiply like that. This week's 7 teams were all more than 7 point favorites and I ended up getting better than 5:1 odds. Boom - easy money!
Of course, more often than not, 1 upset wrecks this little "system" of mine. I usually pick 4-6 teams, but honestly liked all 7 a lot this week. I was in a straight up pick'em league one year, back in like 1999 or 2000, and actually had a perfect week once (13 games, I think it was). That doesn't sound that impressive, but it really is. No parlay for me that week, but that would have been some sick odds, and I even had a couple of dogs in there. |
