Mama's On Pills, Daddy's Over The Hill (NFL Week4)

Another day and no more dollars, but before we list the picks...

YOUTUBE DISAPPOINTMENT ALERT: The old "Houston Oilers #1" song is not as jubilantly whimsical as I remembered it...you know, just mentioning it...

NOTE: Today's selections lean to the highly contrarian side...if that's yer kinda thing...

SIDES (5-7): Minnesota (+4.0), Tennessee (+7.5), Tampa Bay (+7.5), Houston (-2.5)

TOTALS (16-9-1): Buf./Hou. Under 44.0, Jac./S.D. Over 44.5

Best of luck and that type-a thing...

Giving A Crippled Crab A Crutch (Week 2)

Now that summer is gone one of the things I miss is the sound of the Ice Cream Truck coming through my neighborhood. I mean I just can't get enough of a xylophone version of "Turkey in the Straw" being played ad nauseum on a continuous loop...and besides that dessert just tastes better when it's served by a pedophile.

But enough of that...Here's today's slightly contrarian based picks-

SIDES (4-2): NY Giants PK, Detroit +2.5

TOTALS (5-4-1): KC/DEN under 50.5, STL/TB over 37.5, ATL/CIN under 48.5, DET/CAR over 43.5, NO/CLE over 48.5, MIA/BUF under 42.5, NYJ/GB under 46.5

From Ray Rice With Love (MNF)

New video out today shows Ray Rice cold-cocking his then fiancée, now wife, Janay Palmer in an elevator at the Revel Hotel Casino in Atlantic City and then dragging her into the hallway "caveman-style". Begging the question what went down faster Janay Rice or the Revel Hotel Casino. In light of the damning video the Ravens released Rice this afternoon. Meanwhile Janay has tabled her future with Mr. Rice...at least until she finds out how much of his recent $35M contract is guaranteed.

Here's our feeling on MNF...

SIDES (3-2): San Diego +2.5

TOTALS (4-4-1): S.D./Ari. under 46.5

Good luck and such.

Notes While Listening To Buffalo Springfield (Week 1)
