It Was Ten Years Ago

Can you believe we’re into December already? Seems like it was only 1 month ago that the season started. Now we’re only 5 games away from Post-Season!
And on that note, the Skins lost…again…and they’re out of any playoff chance. The Prince is still cheering on his Eagles. We’ll see. But my Titans aren’t doing to badly.
According to SBNation’s NFL playoff picture 2013, No. 6 Tennessee Titans 5-6 (Wild Card, conference record and divisional tie-breakers) in the AFC. I still have hope! Continue reading

Evils Picks & Analysis
I hate week 12. I don’t want to talk about it. Except for the six games I picked. Oh and the Atlanta game where I won the good bet. I’m now only down 10% on good bets.
On the other hand, I failed to nail down a single game, not even the Atlanta game.
On the true failures side, surprisingly there were only two. It would appear that Da Bears’ D is already sitting at the table for turkey, they sure weren’t in St. Louis. And I don’t know what happened to the Giants this year, and clearly neither does my computer.

Week 13 Picks
We hope everyone has a very happy, safe and drama free Thanksgiving Day! It’s a time to remember what’s really important in life and to have those people around you at this special time of the year.
It’s time for football too, so let’s get to it.
Last week I actually used stats to help me make my picks. I’m not going to do that again. Going back to gut feel. The game I’m looking forward to is New Orleans at Seattle, but that’s not until Monday night. For Turkey Day, I don’t see anything to be excited about today. But who knows maybe someone will be annoyed they have to work on Thanksgiving Day and play with a bit more heart. Of all the Thursday games, Pittsburgh at Baltimore might be the only one worth watching. Continue reading
Evil’s Analysis and Picks
Week 11 is one of my favorite weeks of football. Not only did I call 11 games, but Carolina beat the Pats. Now the computer predicts Carolina as the number six seed in the playoffs. They get to go to New Orleans and get stomped. Guess it’s not a perfect week…
I nailed the Buffalo, Miami and Denver games. I almost called the KC and Denver scores exactly.
On the true failures side, Tampa Bay’s D says Falcons taste just like chicken. Also I can live with being totally wrong about Carolina.
There is one good bet this week and that is Atlanta will cover the spread by beating New Orleans. Continue reading
Week 11 Results
Can you believe it’s almost Thanksgiving? Where has the season gone? Looking back at last week, it wasn’t bad at all in regard to my football picks at least. I was right about my pick for the Colts, but come on my Titans hung in there pretty well! It wasn’t a runaway game after all! I must admit I was surprised at how Buffalo so easily handled the Jets. I really thought NY was better than that. I appear to have been wrong about that.
Now someone explain to me how Tampa Bay beat Atlanta? Because I don’t get that one at all. I know we’re talking the best of two losers, but still. I thought Atlanta was better than that. Finally, I feel sorry for Green Bay. They seem to have a knack for putting their talent into their quarterback and when he’s down, the team can’t rally to live up to their potential. Of course they’re not the only team that has this problem. Continue reading
Racing Comes To A Close – For This Year
The year comes to a close for Nascar’s 2013 racing season. Despite the grumbling and hysterics on Twitter, I think it was an interesting and exciting year. But then I’m a race fan, not a fair weather fan.
I’m not so quick to blame Nascar for the poor attendance and lower TV ratings. People who do this don’t understand how much the Great Recession has hit this country. Many of us are still struggling to recover and we can’t afford our season race tickets. And for many of the races, require cable/dish to view. That too costs money many don’t have. But that’s a different story.
You can’t write about the end of the season without first saying a big Congratulations to the champions of the season. Continue reading
Week 11 Overview
I am now 1-six hunnit and fiddy on bets that Denver games will go under. Got one. I also gained 520% on gambling overall. Hard to believe because I got most of the fricken winners wrong.
I nailed the Giants game. Not too hard, I’m sure Eli and the boys were looking for little kids and kittens to beat up. Nice of Oakland to satisfy that. Not that it was a beating really. Speaking of teams needing to bully somebody, I nailed the Pittsburgh game, no real surprise there. 2 for 2 on the B team games. That’s exactly the same as flipping heads twice. Continue reading
