NFL Week 16
Evil’s Analysis and Picks
I guess my run of good luck is over. Only 7 picks right last week. And I failed to nail even one game of those.
So, let’s talk about the true failures category. Neither Arizona or Tennessee brought a D squad. Well maybe Arizona brought one guy. I nailed Seattle’s score in that game. Unfortunately for me, the Giants weren’t there to see it. And I’ve said it before, never bet on a B team, you can never tell when they will show up. Buffalo showed up. I think they had 44 men on the field.
This week New England is back out of the Superbowl. Seattle with a 15-1 record will win over Denver.
My take: Continue reading
Spring’s Week 15 Results & Week 16 Picks
Week 15 Results
First off I’d like to say everyone in my family wishes everyone in your family a wonderful Yuletide and Merry Christmas!
It’s Sunday and there’s only two weeks left of the NFL’s regular season. The next two weeks will be filled with commentary, confusing and convoluted scenarios for what a team has to do in order to make the playoffs. That team will have to win, that team will have to lose and your team will need other teams to do both of those to make a wild card birth. I’m terribly glad I’m not the one who has to know all that. I’m fairly sure I would fail at it miserably.
But I didn’t fail at last weeks results! Woohoo. I had 11 of the 16 games correct. I’m still trying to figure out how Denver lost, IN Denver to the Chargers no less. Did the Broncos forget where the stadium was? In my head Chicago and Cleveland was a toss up game, so I’m not surprised I lost that pick. But when the Saints lost to the Rams I thought my weekend was going to be long and depressing. Then New England lost in Miami!? What?! Continue reading
Are You Smarter Than A Politician?
Can’t Access The Quiz?
I’ve been playing Bill Maher’s weekly trivia “Are You Smarter Than A Politician” on Facebook. Sometime in October or November it stopped working. Which was highly annoying as I was on top of the leader-board!
When you accessed the app, the bottom of the frame to load the “Breaking News” would simply spin and never load. Consequently, the script would never complete loading to the point where you could click on the links and take the quiz.
It was frustrating. After searching for a solution I finally found a link to the quiz outside of Facebook that does work.
If you’ve been in the same boat, try this link to complete the quiz for the remainder of the year. (You must first be logged into your account on Facebook for this to work properly.)

NFL Week 15
Evil’s Picks and Analysis
Week 14 was even better to me than week 13, I got 12 picks.
I nailed the New England game. Not that it was hard to pick Brady to win, but picking Cleveland to cover the spread was dicey. The covered it 9 points better than I planned, which didn’t hurt an over bet at all.
I also nailed the Jets game, only both teams scored even more than I figured. Good thing I took the over bet there.
In the true failures category, I favored Houston by 7 and Jacksonville showed up with a football team to win by 7. In Washington, KC showed up with two teams which evened out the game since DC forgot to bring a team. In Pittsburgh, Miami brought some tin snips for Pittsburgh’s tin foil curtain. In Denver, Tennessee’s defense only made it half a mile high, someone should send out a rescue squad and see if they can find them. And one day I’m going to study the Giants and see if I can figure out why suddenly this year they can’t play. I have a bad feeling they met Alice from Wonderland and drank the shrinking potion. Continue reading

Spring’s Week 14 Results & Week 15 Picks
Week 14
It wasn’t a bad week! I won 10 games and that’s a 62% win ratio for the week. Which puts me at 59% for the season. I can live with that. Yeah me.
There were some surprises though. Indianapolis and Pittsburgh losing were, well unexpected. Thank goodness New England decided to wake up and realize they were playing football. What the heck was that? I can understand them being down and coming back against Denver. But it should never have been a struggle against Cleveland. But anyone who counted them down and out with come back kid Brady was simply deluding themselves. Continue reading

NFL Week 14
Evil’s Analysis and Picks
Week 13 was good to me, 11 picks.
Nailed the Philly game, the San Fran game and the Seattle game. That is to say, I won both bets and called the pick in Seattle. The rest of that beat down of Orleans was just gravy on the cake.
On the true failures side, I think the Jets didn’t make it out of Miami airport. Maybe they got snowed in.
There are no good bets this week, and considering all the snow I see, that’s a good thing.
My take: Continue reading
