Happy Thanksgiving to all my lovely sports betting freaks out there! I hope you are arriving at your destinations buzzed and ready for the 4 day weekend of debauchery! There are many vices we all have to take care of this weekend: Overeating, Drinking, Shopping, Having Sex with lost friends from college or high school, and of course SPORTS BETTING! There are 3 games on the docket for Turkey Day starting with Brett Favre and the Pack taking on the Lions and it all ends with that game we’ve all been waiting for… Colts vs Falcons Boy I can’t wait to see that one. I guess the executives didn’t think Michael Vick would be starting his jail sentence this week back in the summer when the schedule was made up. I’ll get to my picks in a second, but first I just wanted to say a little about this past weekend.
Alikat and the Chicks were 4-2 in our Money Picks in Week 11! That’s our 2nd week in a row where we were 4-2. The Saints imploded on us down in Houston and I don’t know what the Hell happened to the Steelers in Jetville. Other than that it was a great week. I’m liking some of the lines that we have for this Sunday. I’ll be giving the Sunday picks on Friday or Saturday so stay tuned in to the Chicks over the Holiday Weekend in between your arguments with the in-laws and the drunken sex with that old college flame. Now it’s onto the Turkey Games…
1. Packers -3 @ Lions
The Pack are looking stronger and stronger every week with Favre gunning those slant patterns and the DLine getting in the face of every QB that drops back. I think it’s going to be another long day for ‘God Kitna’. He got beat up against the Giants pass rush and the Pack have just as good of DE’s as the Giants plus better Linebackers. The Lions still can’t get anything going on the ground and this being a short week I don’t see them doing it tomorrow. Favre has another Big Stage to show you he’s the one of the 3 Best to Play the game and I gotta feeling he’s going to light up the weak Lions Secondary. This game is going to count as a Money Pick for the Week so put it down…
TAKE THE PACKERS -3
2. Jets +14 @ Cowboys
The Jets are coming off there big Win against the Steelers and now they have to come back down to earth. It’s sounding as if they will be without WR Lavern Coles, I like calling him Lavern because I think it sounds better. The Jets are pretty weak in the secondary and the Cowboys have the best offense in the league right now outside the Patriots. The thing I don’t like about this game is, despite the fact it’s Thanksgiving and on National TV, it is a classic TRAP Game for the Cowboys. They just played there divisional rivals and they have the Packers coming to town next Sunday. I don’t see them fucking around so much that they lose but I could see a last minute touchdown thrown in to screw up the cover. The key to this game is if the Cowboys get going early they will blow the Jets out. If they come out sluggish and give up a big special teams play, things could get interesting. I’m not going to make this a Money Pick just because of the amount of points you’re having to lay and the facts just mentioned above. In the end you gotta…
TAKE THE COWBOYS -14
3. Colts -12 @ Falcons
Here’s another big spread that just doesn’t feel right to me. The Colts have not been the same since Marvin Harrison went down and they lost to the Patriots. You would think they should be able to get the offense back on track against the Falcons. The Falcons are playing much better than they did early in the season, but they just lost 2 defensive linemen in Trey Lewis and Rod Coleman, both lost for the remainder of the season. That is going to hurt them against Joseph Addai. With so many injuries on the Colts right now I think they will work the running game a lot with Addai and count on their Defense to take care of business. I could see a final score of 24-13 or 27-17, both by good margins but not enough to cover. I wouldn’t recommend playing this game unless you’re just wagering to have some fun with friends or it’s a small play of your bankroll. If I had to I would go with…
TAKE THE FALCONS AT HOME +12
So there you have it Turkey Bettors. I hope you all have a blast tomorrow and throughout the weekend. Make sure to get those ’stiffs’ in your family to do the driving for all you sports betting drunks during the next few days. There is nothing worse than sitting in the Drunk Tank while everybody else is having fun down at the local watering hole. I’ll be back on Friday or Saturday with my picks for Sunday’s Games.
Bet Ya–
