Jags, 'Niners overrated

I only bet one other game today, other than the one I already mentioned,

STLOUIS(-2)over sanfrancisco. That was washington(+7)over JACKSONVILLE. I bet this game late, when the Jags announced that Maurice Jones-Drew wasn't playing. I already thought the 'Skins were a bit undervalued at +6.5, and +7 against a Jones-Drewless Jag team seemed like a real bargain.

It was. Washington jumped out to a 10-0 lead, and held on for a 20-17 overtime win. The beauty of OT at (+7) is Jacksonville could have scored a TD, and I still would have won, since they don't kick extra points in OT.

The Rams gave me a couple of scares before eventually settling down and winning, 25-17, I wasn't crazy about this score, since it had the potential for a backdoor cover. Fortunately this didn't happen.

This line eventually moved to StL(-3). Maybe the betting public is off the 'Niner Kool-Aid.

I went 1-1 on the NBA yesterday. NEWYORK(-1)over chicago came through for me, as the Knicks won, 103-95. LALAKERS(-3)over miami? Not so much. The Heat won this one, 96-80.

Mainly I'm glad I didn't bet the Celtics, since they got beat at Orlando. Boston had a 14 game win streak going, and I thought they might have the Magic outmanned, even on the road. Maybe this Gilbert Arenas trade will work out for them.
