Ok - I normally don't do this, but I'm going to offer up my pick of the year.

Gents - lay down a finsky and take your wife downtown for the weekend at the Ritz.

Mark my words: The Patriots will cover the spread tommorow night against my beloved Bengals.

Last year the Pats CRUSHED the Benagals w/o Moss while the Bengals had Rudi Johnson.

The Bengals defense is horrible!!!

Put down a finsky on the Pats if you like money.

A 7.5 spread is a joke. Vegas is crazy on this one.

I dont disagree at all, but I thought the same thing about your boys @ Cleveland in week 2 -6.5, and I clearly am sucking at picking games w/ spreads this year so my opinion doesnt carry much weight here.

One of the prognostication boards I look at have a board wide red alert whenever anyone calls out a lock. It is done so that the rest of the board can be sure to bet the other way. Thanks for the help NSJ.

It looks like a ton of people everywhere fell for the biggest sucker bet on the board yesterday. Someone explain to me, 1. Why the Houston Fucking Texans were laying points on the road when their offense is banged up ? 2. Why the hell did anyone pick up the phone and say Houston Texans -3 ?

It was really difficult saying falcons, as well. I was watching ESPN pre game and everyone but berman picked houston in a walk. this only further cemented my choice of the dirty birds.

You usually only offer it up to subscribers only?

The more I listen to everyone suck off the Patriots, the more I want to take the Bengals.

I'm usually never so confident on a game. The Pats will cover and I will double my money tonight!

Usually the amount risked is a direct reflection of the confidence level in the outcome.
That said, how much are you putting on the game?

If your "lock" is wrong, the drinks might be on you too.

Put it on the under of the next Illini game.
That defense is kicking ass right now.
