Yeah, I enjoyed that one too.  I wouldn't be surprised if others at covers found it funny as well, but I also wouldn't be surprised if they didn't.

I hope my picks can silence some of these critics.  Why is everyone so bitter?  And why was the Buffalo comment funny?  Was is that hard for you to think about what it meant?  Clearly, I wouldn't be surprised if Buffalo covers here because they aren't THAT bad and Pitt played well above their abilities in Week 1.  But at the same time, Pitt IS better than Buf so it is expected of them to win. 
Why post something if the only thing you're going to say is something horrible?
 
Oddsmaster has posted twice and so far the only thing he Captains is the idea that he is probably 15 years old.
 
Back to FOOTBALL...
 
I've been reading all these stats people are throwing out on the DAL/MIA game.  "Dallas has a terrible record when playing on the road after a divisional game in Sept........ when it snows in Quebec and Madden doesn't say BOOM more than once while hosting a broadcast on the westcoast in June"  Lets get real here,
 
Dallas is a fantastic team whose defense played poorly --or the NYG offense was really good (though they are better than last year).  Miami won't make the playoffs for the next 3 years.  Dallas is only giving up 4 points?  This and the NO -3 are my two gimme picks of the week.

Not sure why you're laughing so hard, if you could read, you would see that I said several times that the 6 picks I made in week one were gimmes and nothing to gloat over.  Hopefully my Week 2 picks will continue to show my stuff.

According to my Bet Card and Wallet, 6-0 is real.  But unfortunately I've learned quickly in this forum that I never made a bet because I didn't post it here first, as if I was suppose to know about this site prior to Week 1.  Anywho, 6-0 was real, but again let me emphasize that I didn't reallize go out on a limb with the 6 picks I made.  To me, they were gimmes.  To you they should be, also.  So this week I've decided to bet on more games and a little more risky ones.  I noticed that half of the espn.com experts were .500 or below.  My actual Week 1 record (not posted) was 10-6 overall (though I only bet on those 6), which means I went a dismal 4-6 on analyzing riskier games using the spread.  So hopefully in my Week 2 picks I have balanced out my week 1 non bet ( the 6-0 counts in my book since those were the ones I was willing to put money on! ) miscalculations.. and will improve upon my unposted and "phantom" record.

If I do poorly, I hope you didn't and we'll get 'em back in Week 3!

Mattrick bol on your selections this weekend. As a few others mentioned above, a few solid winning weeks should quiet the kids down somewhat.

Dallas isn't as good as they looked against the NY midgets.  Miami will not get run over.

Hey Mattric what do you think of this three team moneyline parlay:  Pitt/Denver/Chicago?

ML-MONSTER,
 
Well, it's hard for me to explain.  Yes, I believe all three of those teams should win the game.  But, personally, I would just pick two teams other than Pitt and Chi.  I am staying away from Pitt and Chi for a few weeks.  I believe both of those teams are very overrated (but maybe Pitt could live up to the favoritism 80% of the way) and I believe Chi will prove me right this year by NOT being that wonderous one year wonder squad they were last season. 
So again, yes, its a safe bet, but personally I'm strictly looking at Pitt and Chi as a team to get upset easily and jump in where I feel the greatest chacne of financial gain!

Here me now!

 

The Dallas Cowboys are talking about breaking the points record that Minnesota set in 1998 (Yes I know its Week 1, and so do they (I'm only just quoting the team!)).  That's how excited they are about their offense.  Their defense went to sleep, never mind that performance.  Just keep it tucked away in the darkest corners of your mind (for now).  The Cowboys' offense, even without Terry Glenn, is extremely powerful.  They will put up at least 28 against the fins, and the rest is up to the defense (which probably had a tough week under Philips' coaching).

Keep on posting and reasoning on your picks. In a few weeks we´ll all learn if your record can speak for yourself. I for one don´t post my picks, so i do not brag when i win. If you took some time to watch how it works here you´s be better off. This ain´t bashing, just thought a little advice from another user could help.
Anywway, best of luck with your picks this season. I´ll be droping in to see how you´re doing.

MIA is the Bet, Vegas is going to bank on this one.  I think Miami wins straight up.

Denver did not cover the number..Bills did. Is this you're money line picks..then say so..don't imply you're picking with the spread. Any good gambler would have avoided the Denver/Fuckaloows because they both consistenly cost people money. I hit last week 6-0 in NFL but I lost with Michigan because I thought they had PRIDE. I was wrong. If you don't specificy with spreads which even out the equations..you're just as Lazy as a Real Lion in the wild.

I'm full of typing errors this week.. "here" should be "hear."
 
Anywho,
 
If Miami beats Dallas, there will be some heads on a platter in Dallas, TX.  This Dallas team is extremely confident, happy (for once), and scoring big time.  Miami is not a blip on their radar.  The only games they need to worry about this season is against PHI, NE, and CHI-town.  I'm starting to think that many people think this is the Cowboys of the first half of this decade? 
 
If Miami beats Dallas, I will really need to rethink the position of the Dallas Cowboys on the table.  Or it will be because Tony Romo will have the worst game of his career, and even then, thats impressive.
