So how’s the Thanksgiving Weekend treating all you sports betting freaks out there? Have you all seen some of the College Football Games this weekend. Amazing to say the least! In the past 2 days I have watched about 9 hours of SEC Football. On Friday you had Arkansas vs LSU, in a Marathon event, with the Razorbacks knocking off the #1 team in the country in 3 OT’s and then today the Volunteers take down the Kentucky Wildcats in 4 OT’s. You couldn’t pitch this stuff to a Movie Producer without getting laughed at. If Week 12 in the NFL is half as good as those 2 games I’ll be very happy. So, it’s late and of course I have drank way too much and had some delicious pumpkin cheesecake this weekend so I’ll be a little more brief in my breakdowns of the games tonight. Just remember we are already 1-0 in the Money Picks with the Packers covering on Turkey Day. So here we go. Remember all lines are from betonline.com as of 1am pacific time Sunday. Best of luck to you all!
Money Picks
1. Broncos +1.5 @ Bears
The Broncos are starting to look like the team everybody ‘Thought they were’ in the pre-season magazines. Sexy Rex will not be able to sling it like his counterpart Jay Cutler. The Bears are not consistent and the Broncos are getting their S… together.
TAKE THE BRONCOS +1.5
2. Texans +3 @ Browns
Should be a shootout. Probably will be something in-between. Either way I like what I’m seeing in the Browns Offense much more than what I see in the Texans Defense.
TAKE THE BROWNS -3
3. Seahawks -3 @ Rams
These games are supposed to be close, but the Seahawks are getting their act together now that Alexander isn’t around to foul things up. They need this Win to stay 1 game ahead of the Cards in the West. The Rams are getting healthy, but it’s too little too late.
TAKE THE SEAHAWKS -3
4. Saints -2 @ Panthers
This line was at -2.5 for the Saints and then you hear Old Vinny might not play due to a stiff back and the line goes down for the Saints, hmm? It doesn’t matter if Reggie Bush can’t play this Sunday. It really doesn’t freaks. This offense goes as Brees goes and he’ll go against the Panthers.
TAKE THE SAINTS -2
5. Redskins +3 @ Bucs
This game is tricky and I’m bucking the stats and the way the Bucs have been playing at home all year on this one. The Redskins are a few plays away from being 7-3 and Jason Campbell is starting to come of age. I know they are banged up right now, but these two teams always play close games and I’m going with the Dawg!
TAKE THE REDSKINS +3
THE REST OF THE BUNCH OF HOOLIGANS
1. Titans -1.5 @ Bengals
This game could make my Money Picks if I knew the status of DT Albert Haynesworth. We won’t know for sure until probably 20 minutes before game time. My hunch is he’ll play, but I’m waiting to hear before I play this game. If he does play I would go with the Titans as they are a completely different team with him in the line up. If he sits another one out I would go the other way and play on the Bengals. I know it sounds strange to put this much emphasis on one DT, but as he goes so goes the Titans defense.
WAIT FOR STATUS ON DT HAYNESWORTH AND PLAY ACCORDINGLY (See Above)
2. Bills +8.5 @ Jags
The Bills won’t have RB Lynch on their side. How in the hell are they going to score against the Jags without him? If the Jags don’t self-destruct, as they’ve been know to do, this game should be over by the start of the 4th quarter.
TAKE THE JAGS -8.5
3. Raiders +4.5 @ Chiefs
I guarantee you this won’t be half as exciting as the Missouri vs Kansas game played just 15 hours before or half as loud. Both the QB’s in this NFL affair would sit on the bench at Missouri with the way Chase Daniels plays the position. Remember that name Freaks, Chase Daniels will be an NFL Star someday soon. As for this one I see the Chiefs without Larry Johnson and I have to go with…
TAKE THE RAIDERS +4.5
4. Vikings +7 @ Giants
I hope to hell that ‘Crazy Childress’ keeps Peterson off the field for one more week. I don’t need to see that kind of talent wasted away on the field in NY over trying to save Childress’s Job. The Giants need this game badly to keep ahead in the Wildcard Hunt.
TAKE THE GIANTS -7
5. 49er’s +10 @ Cardinals
The Niners can’t do anything right now. The Cards are starting to ‘Believe’. Crazy things go on in the desert so I wouldn’t be shocked if this goes the other way in terms of Covers, but…
TAKE THE CARDS -10
6. Ravens +8.5 @ Chargers
The Ravens have been brutally bad on the road this season. The Chargers need this game if they are to stave off being completely taken over by ‘Norv Turner’s STD’! Problem is that Philip Rivers can’t seem to find anything he can READ that doesn’t involve wrong colored jerseys. If you Must Bet, and I mean Must Bet, cause you need something to sweat out from this weekend then by all means go ahead and play this game. Nobody has a clue who’s going to show up here, but…
TAKE THE CHARGERS -8.5
7. Eagles +24 @ Patriots
That’s not a misprint Guys and Gals. That’s not even a College Football Line. That’s a line in the NFL for the Sunday Night Special. Madden gets to gush over Tom Brady all over again. McNabb is out and A.J. Feeley is in at QB. Everything in me says take the points and go to sleep knowing you will be at the Bank on Monday Morning… Empty handed because of the Drive-By from BMH. BMH is the new name I’m giving for Brady-Moss-Harrison They are a 3 member gang from somewhere in the hills just south of Boston. Armed and extremely dangerous. One can Shoot, one can Fly, and One can Hit like a MOFO!
TAKE THE PATS
8. Dolphins +15.5 @ Steelers
This game sure does sound like a hangover from the weekend huh? Another bad Monday Night game. We’ve had far too many the past 3 weeks in my opinion. Maybe we’ll at least get to see a ‘New and Improved’ Ricky Williams if Jessie Chatman can’t heal up in time. Imagine if Ricky goes off the hook and the Mormon QB Beck throws a couple of TD’s. Now that could get entertaining for Kornheiser. A Weed Addict and a Mormon in the same backfield. I’m telling you you can’t write some of these crazy ass storylines.
TAKE THE STEELERS -15.5
So there you go! Enjoy your last day of the Long Ass Weekend and I’ll talk to you in a few days.
Bet Ya–
ALIKAT
