I'm not sure I'll ever watch the NFL again. You think losing to a two-outer on the river hurts? Try blowing a 17-point fourth quarter lead to your division rival. Now THAT's a bad beat. I've never felt as bad after a poker beat as I felt yesterday evening.
I hate football. Thank goodness it's still baseball season so I have something to focus on this week (Go Phils!).
But I digress... here come the results. I finished a strong 10-6 with BG close behind at 9-7. We also nailed our Locks of the Week and suggested a three-team parlay that would have made you money.
Just some notes: Only 5 dogs beat the spread this week and four of them won outright (favored Denver won but did not cover). Only 5 road teams were winning bets this week (all winning outright except, once again, Kansas City).
Next week, you may not get any picks from us since we'll be otherwise occupied (The Bash!!!), but you never know. If you want a recap of last week's picks, they're listed below.

I agree, it was a BAD BEAT but don't give up on them. It might have been the best thing that could happen. They were getting pretty cocky on the sidelines. Hopefully they'll take it more seriously the rest of the season. Celebrating before the end of the game is a bad thing, you know what they say,"It ain't over till the fat lady sings."
