STIB standings
Since I've gotten picks at various points I'm going
to rank by winning percentage:
Double M
put up another 1-2 week and is 8-7 on the year. He should get bonus points for
picking 3 NFL games (not his expertise) at random. Doesn't really work that way
though. BTW, Mike, is Tiger still getting laid?
I went 2-1 this week to pull into a
tie with MM at 8-7. That's right, your best handicappers in DOGNation are barely
better than a coin flip. Which, according to the last book I read, shouldn't
really be the symbol of 50/50 odds because your standard coin weighs more on one
side. Anyway, I'm pleased with my 2-1 week, the 2 being college picks and the 1
being NFL. And POG (Pile-On-Game) season is about to start. It may have all
ready begun in Gainesville,
FL.
Bo-hanthon followed up his debut
1-2 week with another 1-2, striking gold only on the Philly-Cleveland game. I
might have been right there with him, but upon further thought, I figured
Louisville was at the least 29 and a half points better than USF. But kudos on
going with 3 dogs. That's where the money is according to the late great
CT.
Steve went 1-2, only hitting on the
Bucs being 7 points better than the Bears. That was a gimmie. We all should have
bet our life savings that the Bucs were 7 points better than the Bears at home.
Of course when I was growing up, Tampa WAS the Bears' home. God those days
sucked. Nothing was worse than seeing Ditka, McMahon and company thinking they
were gods because they beat the Bucs twice every year. The joke was on them. In
the decade of the NFC you can find them in the pecking order way back behind the
49ers, Redskins and Giants. And their fame isn't even for winning the fricking
SB, it's for making that video and looking like a bunch of
stiffs.
Whew that was quite a rant. I
feel like more.
