2-1 yesterday

Well I swung and missed badly on the Kings/Bulls game, but got my money back on a meaningless last second dunk by the Cav's who were already up 15 and giving 15 1/2. That last second dunk almost made up for the Polamalu interception in the Ravens/Steelers game. Cclantz and I had cabbage on the Ravens +6 which looked like a lock until Polamalu tribal danced 25 yards through a sea of fluttering Ravens. Honestly, how do you not tackle that guy? Grab his perm, trip him, do something!

Cclantz nailed his only bet with the Lakers covering easy at Minnesota. We are a combined 2-1 on the season. For the youngsters reading, that brings me to 1-1 on the season, Cclantz is 1-0.

$$$$ Today I like Purdue - 11 1/2 at home against my Michigan Wolverines. I'm arguably one of the biggest Michigan fans in the state which makes me very aware that they CAN'T PLAY ON THE ROAD. Their most recent loss was to an average Ohio State team by 18. Their two previous away games they lost by 15 at Penn State and 18 at Illinois. Today they play Purdue, who's not only streaking right now, but are hands down better than all three of those teams.

$$$$ I also like teasing down the points in the Ohio State/Indiana game. Teasers can be a tease, but if you play them right they can be profitable. Indiana's lost 5 straight, and well, they are down right bad. But Tom Creen has kept them competitive, just not enough to get many W's. The current line is OSU -7. Teasing the Buckeyes to -3 or below should get the job done.


Cclantz is currently in bed playing online poker, so I will relay his pick of the day for him.

$$$$ He likes Oklahoma -9 1/2 at Iowa State. Other than Texas no one in the Big 12 is even in the same league as Oklahoma. Iowa State will keep the game close in the first half before the Griffin brothers and Johnson completely take over the game and roll to an easy double digit victory.
