I Pay-Per-View
Wow. I haven't written anything here for a couple of weeks. I went 2-2 on my last posted picks. The Giants covered at Arizona, 37-29 and Indy upset the Chargers at San Diego, 23-20. Meanwhile, Denver got destroyed by Oakland, 31-10, while Washington beat Seattle 20-17, just failing to cover the 3.5.
Last week I lost both games. Indy beat Cleveland, but only 10-6. They were favored by 5 or 5.5. Arizona let Brian Westbrook run wild, and Philly won, 48-20. The Eagles were favored by 3.
It's halftime of the early Sunday games right now (7 Dec--Pearl Harbor Day) and I still haven't bet on any games--except for newengland(-5)overSEATTLE, which I took as soon as I saw the line. A couple of days ago this game was off the board, and now it's Pats by 7.5. I guess it's because Matt Hasselback is listed as doubtful, with an injured back. I guess I got a bargain, but we'll see.
In games I, or anyone else gave a shit about, Virginia Tech handled Boston College, 30-12, and won their second consecutive ACC Championship. The game started as a pick, but by gametime BC was favored by 1.5. As soon as I figured out VT had a good, running quarterback, while BC's quarterback had only a couple of games under his belt, I knew we were probably fucked.
That's the game I cared about, though I was paying more attention to the SEC Championship game, where Florida came from behind to beat Alabama, 31-20, just covering the 10 point spread. I briefly considered taking 'Bama to win, which I believe had them as a 3-1 dog, but I didn't.
I really wanted to see Missouri upset Oklahoma, so Texas could backdoor their way into the BCS title game, but since they didn't, I guess I didn't mind seeing the Sooners hang 60 on the Tigers. Serves them right for not playng defense.
Actually, I didn't see much of it, because I threw down $55 for the Pay-Per-View of De La Hoya-Pacquiao fight.
New England won, but didn't cover, 24-21. Yay.
