I am feeling good this week....and here's to bitch slappin' your bookies en masse!

Let's roll.....here are the picks for week 5. As always....I am flat betting $1100 to win $1000....against the Las Vegas pointspread...

This week we have 5 stone cold locks......4 of which are undergods....cuz when you'se bet a dog...3 things can happen and two of them are good....an outright win...or a pointspread cover! Good luck peeps!


1. DETROIT LIONS PLUS 13.5 points vs. Minnesota Vikings.

Look the Vikings have been my team since I was a little kid. But this team has no business being favored by nearly two td's over anyone...even the pitiful, pathetic...Lions. If Detroit Wins this game outright..I won't be shocked. Detroit covers this large number against a team that can't really score.


2. OAKLAND RAIDERS....PLUS 7.5 points vs. New Orleans Saints.

The Raiders as predicted quit on their previous (now fired) coach.....and did so intentionally. Look for them to rebound this week and cover the number or win outright.


3. INDIANAPOLIS COLTS MINUS 3 points vs. Baltimore Ravens.

Baltimore's defense has more heart then The Tin Man times 100....but it won't be enough against an Indy team that isn't close to their best...but in this game...they wont have to be. Indy cover the 3 points no sweat.

4. NEW YORK JETS MINUS 9 points vs Cinny Bengals. This is a Jet team that aint all that. But Cinny shot their wad last week vs. Dallas.....and the Jets....cruise to a pointspread victory against a spent Cinncy team this week. Play the Jets and Bret Farvre.


5. NEW ENGLAND PATRIOTS.....PLUS 4.5 points vs. San Diego.

Are you'se people kidding me. Do you really think the New England dynasty is ready to fall against a battered and beat up San Diego team? How dare the oddsmakers actually make this team an underdog against the Chargers! Randy Moss lights it up...and bet your money on New England...and you'se are getting 4.5 points to boot!

    Hey Vinnie baby, I'll take 3 and 2 any day of the week as it looks like
    New England decided not to show up tonight.

    Still a winning season so far.

    Keep it up. I know that 5 and 0 week is just around the corner.

      I think the Raiders just suck. Al Davis needs to realize he aint no genius anymore ( if he ever was one ) and really hand over the operation of the club to someone who knows what they are doing. Go talk to him Vince. He needs a Warrior intervention.

        3 wins vs. 2 losses today.....for a net profit of $800.

        Normally I'd be happy with that.....but I fractured my big toe kicking the concrete.... watching The Patriots bend over for a banged up Charger team.

        Al Davis.....is senile at this stage of the game. He continues to live in the past.....but the spirit of the Raiders Dynasty has died....and his constant meddling pretty much assures this team of continued failure.

        I continue to be amazed by the play of Kurt Warner....and the Arizona Cardinals.......as this team is over achieving.

        I love the spirit of the Houstan Texans....the best one win team in the NFL.

        My beloved Minnesota Vikings are HORRIBLE....and as predicted...they can't score...and damn near lost outright to the Lions today.....and no hindsight....that was the easiest damn pick of the week.

        Dallas? The arrogance of mediocrity. And they deserve what they get.

        Most handicappers myself included...make our money exploiting the softer lines in college sports. The NFL and it's parity....is always tougher to profit from......but we continue to keep on keepin' on.

    I just can't wait for the Bills to come back next week

    No pun intended for anyone who follows them.
