Spring and the Prince Review The Holiday Weekend

Week 16 falls right before the Christmas Holiday. And it turns out to be a good thing for me! I won 13 out of the 16 games. That’s an 81.2% average for the week. Woohoo. The man-child did better than his average this week as well. He’s typically a good 50% on his picks. But this week he won 9 of the 16 and brings him to a 56.0%. Hey..that 6% is a big deal when you’re 9 years old.

It was also a great weekend if you’re a Redskins fan (like me)! They are the only team in their division that won on Sunday. Sadly they had to beat the Prince’s team, the Eagles, to make that happen. But they did it. And no so sadly New Orleans beat Dallas Yeah!! And Baltimore took care of the Giants. I am surprised that Houston didn’t show up in Minnesota and the Vikings seemingly decimated them. That was a bad game all around. But how did the Jets fall to the Chargers? I don’t get that one.

Evil’s Week 15 Results and Week 16 Picks

Turns out that during Week 14 there was a good bet, but the spreads weren’t posted by the time I put up my predictions. The bet was that Oakland would cover the 10 point spread by beating Denver. Well it was a good bet all the way up till they actually played (or in the case of Oakland, not…) the game.

Then likewise there was a good bet that Baltimore would cover the 3 point spread by beating the crap out of Denver. Which goes to prove my rule: Never make bets on the B teams. Baltimore and Buffalo will play fine right up until the moment you put money on them. Then, suddenly, they mimic Oakland.

So imagine my terror as I tell you that the only good bet this week is that Cleveland will cover the 13 point spread versus Denver. I see a terrifying pattern where I lose all my money to a bookie. I guess it’s fortunate I have no money. Continue reading →

Spring and The Prince Make Their Picks

Well last week seems to have been a wash out. There were some upsets and some surprises. The Prince and I finished the week in a tie, both of us winning 50% of the games. Not great, but hey we broke even.

Dallas took the week on raw emotion. I have to say as much as I don’t like Dallas, I’m glad they won that game. Very sad situation for them. Wish I could say that for Kansas City. Our sympathies to the family and friends of both teams.

My favorite Nascar Driver Tony Stewart’s team the Indianapolis Colts pulled off a win! And woohoo for my Redskins in OT! On the other hand, what in the world has happened to Atlanta? There’s no way they should have lost that game! But we can’t be too upset about that since Evil was born and raised in Charlotte. His team won so that makes three woohoos! Continue reading →

Sir Evil Makes His Assessments and Picks

Week 14

The game to watch this week: Houston at the Pats. This game decides which team goes to the Superbowl to beat Atlanta.

I got the bet right on the Dallas game. Sad to say Philly didn’t beat them though. I guess the Dallas fans are out of money now, cause there aren’t any good bets this week.

My take: Continue reading →

Spring and The Prince Review The Games of the Week

Wasn’t a bad week for me. 10 of 16 games, that’s about 63%. And let me say that’s a better weekly average than some professional commentators and their picks last week. So I’m happy with that. And that’s also my season average so far as well. Not bad for a ‘girl’.  The Prince however, well he’s got some work to do. But one thing he has on his side is loyalty. He’s bound and determined to make his picks by his which animal is bigger method. I’m trying to teach him about statistics and injury reports. He listens, but still goes back to his animal loyalty.

So last week’s results were interesting. I’m ecstatic that my Skins won Monday night against the Giants. And I’m not the only fan who was pleased as punch! One of the Redskins most famous fans was also thrilled to no end. So much so that he even put his emotions into words and it was printed by ESPN with an introduction by Marty Smith. Even if you’re just a fan of the NFL and not a Skins fan, you should still read the article. It captures the emotions of any die-hard fan for their favorite team.

Sir Evil’s Picks

Well the computer figured on the Lions eating the Texans but it looks like Texans like Lions for dinner. Hear they taste just like everything else the Texans have eaten.

For Dallas fans, I got good news and bad news. Good news! You will not have the crap beat out of you by the Bears in the playoffs. Bad news: If you are there at all, you will be safely in the stands watching the game.

My take: Continue reading →

Spring and The Prince Make Their Picks

Wasn’t such a bad week, except my laptop died. Other than that, I got 10 out of 16 games and I’m happy with that. I’m still not sure how some of these guys won their games considering who they were up against.

How in the world did Miami beat Seattle? Did the Seahawks forget to get on the plane or something? And what happened to the Saints? They were sloppy, unfocused and looked as if they were playing on jet lag. All in all, even with those losses, I’m happy with the week.

Here are our results from Week 12 Continue reading →

Spring and The Prince Make Their Picks

Happy Thanksgiving one and all. May your table be filled with abundance, Joy and Love all the year and through this holiday season!

Woohoo!!! What a week 11!! I lost 1 game, thanks to the Jets killing St. Louis! But I guess I can live with that! The Prince didn’t do so bad. He’s still at 50% which is better than his previous years of picking games.

This past week he received an award for making the Honor Roll at school. I have no doubt that as time goes by and he becomes more interested in sports that his picks will become better.

Week 11 Results
Until then, here’s our results from last week. Continue reading →

Evil’s Picks and Results

Got 9 games, but gambling went into the crapper.

Noticed the Texans did their best to feed the kitties. But in the end, they finally cut them into steaks and roasted them. Today they will probably have some bigger kitties instead of turkey.

Since last week the prediction for the Superbowl has changed. Atlanta goes, Green Bay doesn’t. For the few weeks before that favor shifted ever so slightly from Green Bay to New England. Now the computer says the Pats will beat Atlanta.

My take: Continue reading →
