GO COLTS!
I don't want to sound like an idiot, but explain to me how the spread works on the picks?
Like for the indy game, it says -3... what does that mean? [new to teh sports gamblin lingo]
Ah I like the pickin against the spread setup, hopefully I'll be around this week to make my picks for next weekend, what day of the week do you post the lines for the weekend?
That means Indy is picked to win by 3, if Indy wins by 3 its a push (basically you don't win or lose money, basically a tie). If Indy wins by 4 or more you win, and if Indy wins by 2 or less, or loses, you lose.Quote:

Oh and for those who were wondering about Brady and the single season touchdown record. He is currently on pace to throw 61 TD's this year, and the old record held by Manning in 04 is currently 49 TD's. :eek: :eek:
I'd say he will break it, but I bet its not by much, probably very low 50's. Of course that could change real fast if he gets injured.

I'll probably try and get them up Wednesday or Thursday. Though if I do as bad next week as this week I might be done :pQuote:

The simplest way to is take the final score and minus the spread points from the favorite team -- if they still would've won the game without those points, they "beat the spread".Quote:

New England had to beat Miami by at least 16.5 points. The final score was 49-28. However, the actual spread score was 32.5-28. So if Miami had got another touchdown they still would've lost the game, but they would've beat the spread.

Awesome.
What next?!?
Lose Jason Taylor to cannibals?!?
Zach Thomas to the Jehovah Witnesses?!?
Geez Louise man...
How awesome would it be if the Dolphins were the only 16-0 team and the only 0-16 team, lol lol.
I said that exact same thing to someone at work on Friday.Quote:

Having Jason Allen possibly come into his own in the secondary.
And as much as I ahted to see Culpepper go (for good reason apparently), I was hoping that Green may be the QB that Miami had been missing since Marino retired.
Also one full year from Brown (he was injure last year too) I thought may give them good balance on offense.
All for naught.
Well, at least their a near lock for the #1 pick overall. With any luck though, they blow it away on another waste of time like Ginn.
What a disaster. That team needs to be wirped clean and started all over again. Indeed it'll be a few years... even some of their current stars are now officially old (i.e. Taylor and Thomas).
Stupid Dilfer should be playing in some AARP league...:mad:
