SOME SIDE NOTES

I realize that the way the odds are laid out may be a little difficult to read. Sorry about that but I have to work with Blogger's program and it sucks. But, then again it's free so I can't bitch too much. Eventually I'll stumble across a way to make the columns neater and easier to read. It may be a bite more confusing since I've added the point differential, the numbers in parenthesis. Just to clarify, the number to the far right is the difference between my line and the published odds line on the day I make the line.
Sometimes it happens that my choice of the favorite is not the same as the published choice. For instance, this week I pick Green Bay as the favorite over St. Louis by 5. The official line favors St. Louis by 2. Likewise I pick the New York Giants over Philadelphia by 12. Officially, Philly is favored by 3. The 15 point difference and the fact that I feel the wrong team is favored makes the Giants an outstanding bet. So, while I'm on the subject, here are the recommended plays this week based on the current line which I've put next to the name of the pick. You may want to re-evaluate your play based on any line changes:

New York Giants (+3)

Indianapolis (-13)

Seattle (-7)

Those are the three bet bets, but, if your a real degenerate and want a little more action here's two more plays:

Green Bay (+2)

Kansas City (+10.5)

KC is playing Denver and right now Denver seems to be in disarray and I don't know if I'd want to play that game. So that's five picks for this weekend. Denver and Seattle both play in the afternoon and if you win (or are on your way to winning all three) take a shot at both games. Otherwise I'd just go with Seattle.
